PEDO seeks a multi-year O&M operator for two hydropower complexes totaling 99MW across KPK.
This is a large-scale, recurring service contract (not supply) requiring specialized hydropower expertise and regulatory compliance. The split-package structure allows targeted bidding by capability tier. Timeline to June 2026 closure is standard. Critical differentiator: PEC category threshold differs between packages (O-1 vs O-2), suggesting Malakand-III demands higher technical standing. Dual-envelope process and hard-copy submission alongside e-bidding indicate formal, heavily-scrutinized procurement typical of state energy assets.
Who can bid: Bidders must hold valid PEC registration—Category O-1 minimum for Malakand-III (81MW), Category O-2 minimum for Pehur (18MW). NTN and relevant tax authority registration required per KP-PPRA Rules 2014. Typically, bidders must also demonstrate operational experience with hydropower facilities, valid insurance, and compliance with provincial environmental/safety standards. Foreign bidders typically require SECP registration or authorized local representation.
