This procurement is specific to Quetta, Balochistan, and is planned for the financial year 2025-26. The transformers will be delivered to the Regional Store QESCO at Sheikhmanda Complex Airport Chowk, Quetta, with a delivery schedule of 60 days.

The supplier must provide all necessary assistance and testing facilities at their own cost. Eligible bidders must be registered with PEPCO/WAPDA or any DISCO/PPMC, have valid sales tax registration, and demonstrate satisfactory past performance with QESCO or other DISCOs. Prototype approval and compliance with NTDC quality control instructions are mandatory. Bidders must submit bid security and comply with all bidding document requirements. Key dates include bid submission and opening on May 7, 2026, via EPADS v2.0, with manual submission of bid security at QESCO HQ, Zarghoon Road, Quetta. The procurement will follow Least Cost Based Selection (LCBS) methodology. Bidders are advised to register on EPADS v2.0 well before the deadline and ensure all documentation, including bid security, is complete to avoid disqualification. A practical tip for bidders is to ensure prototype approval is valid or obtained within 60 days of purchase order issuance to avoid delays. Also, timely submission of bid security in physical form is critical as failure to do so leads to immediate disqualification. This tender offers a significant opportunity for qualified transformer manufacturers and suppliers to engage with QESCO under clear and structured procurement rules.
