Engagement of NCERT Registered Cyber Security Audit Firm for Compliance Audit

Lahore Electric Supply Company (LESCO) has issued this corrigendum for Tender No. 4424 concerning the engagement or hiring of an NCERT registered cyber security audit firm for a compliance audit. The original opportunity was advertised through EPADS and published in national newspapers. This amendment forms an integral part of the bidding documents and revises the submission and opening schedule. Item or lot list: One consultancy engagement for a cyber security compliance audit by an eligible NCERT registered audit firm. No separate quantities, units, lots, estimated cost, or reserve price are provided in the corrigendum. The required assignment is to conduct the applicable cyber security compliance audit for LESCO in accordance with the scope, deliverables, reporting requirements, and other conditions contained in the original bidding documents. The principal amendment deletes the eligibility clause requiring the consultant firm or vendor to possess ISO-17021 accreditation under PKCERT guidelines and to upload evidence of that accreditation. Bidders should therefore rely on the revised bidding documents and must not treat the deleted ISO-17021 condition as a continuing mandatory requirement. All other terms and conditions remain unchanged and continue to apply. The previous bid submission and opening date of 03 August 2026 has been extended to **13 August 2026**, with the deadline treated as 23:59:59 where no specific time is stated in this corrigendum. Bids or required responses should be submitted through the EPADS process and in accordance with the original tender instructions. The notice does not state a bid security, earnest money, CDR, participation fee, or estimated contract value. Bidders should confirm these requirements in the complete bidding documents and ensure active ATL and tax-registration status where applicable. The issuing office is the Chief Engineer (M.M), LESCO, 22-A Queens Road, Lahore. For clarification, contact the office at **042-99204842** or the exchange at 042-99204820-30. Practical tip: download the amended documents from EPADS and PPRA, replace the earlier deadline in your compliance checklist, and retain proof of electronic submission before the revised closing time.
