Disposal of Unserviceable Scrap Power Transformers at PESCO Grid Stations

Peshawar Electric Supply Company (PESCO) invites electronic bids through EPADS v2.0 for the disposal of unserviceable and scrap power transformers located at various grid stations including Rehman Baba, Hangu, and Thall in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. The disposal is on an 'as is where is' basis and covers multiple lots of 10/13 MVA 132-KV transformers from different makes such as Eleprom, Electroputer, China, Red Koncar, and Toshiba. This tender is specifically issued by the Disposal Directorate of PESCO headquartered in Peshawar. The technical scope involves the removal and lifting of scrap transformers without oil, with bidders responsible for arranging their own transportation and labor. The lifting must be completed within 21 working days from the issuance of the Work Order. Bidders must comply with all safety protocols and provide necessary PPE to their workers. The bid security amounts vary per lot and must be submitted both electronically and physically before the closing date. Manual bids are not accepted. Eligibility criteria require bidders to be registered with the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) and appear on the Active Taxpayer List (ATL). An affidavit confirming no blacklisting and compliance with public health, safety, and environmental regulations must be submitted. The bidding procedure follows the Single Stage One Envelope method under PPRA Rules 2004 and Disposal of Public Assets Regulations 2024. The submission deadline is 2nd June 2026 by 10:30 AM, with bid opening at 11:00 AM the same day. Bids must be submitted electronically via EPADS only. The submission address for original bid security documents is the office of Manager (Disposal), Room No. 306, PESCO Headquarters, Shami Road, Peshawar. A practical tip for bidders is to visit the PESCO stores during office hours before submitting bids to inspect the condition and quantity of scrap items. This helps in accurate quoting and avoids surprises during lifting. Ensuring timely submission of both electronic bids and original bid security documents is crucial to avoid disqualification.
