Disposal of Unserviceable Scrap Items at LESCO Stores Lahore

Lahore Electric Supply Company (LESCO) invites bids for the disposal of unserviceable and scrap items located at Warehouse CKM & Disposal Store Fazaiya, Chief IT Directorate, and Regional Store Shalamar in Lahore. This procurement is specific to the disposal of various scrap materials including ACSR Lynx dismantled conductor, cardboard, paper wastage, and iron scrap of structures and trollies. The items are offered on an 'As is Where is' basis, and interested bidders are encouraged to inspect the scrap during office hours to assess the condition and quantity before submitting their bids. The technical scope covers the lifting and removal of scrap materials from LESCO stores, with quantities specified per lot. Bidders must comply with LESCO's security protocols during site visits. The disposal process follows the Single Stage One Envelope bidding procedure under PPRA Rules 2004, with bid security required for each lot. The successful bidder must lift the allotted scrap within 21 working days of the work order issuance, failing which a penalty of 1% of the bid amount per day will be imposed. Eligibility criteria include registration with FBR and an active tax payer list status, submission of bid security in acceptable forms, and an undertaking regarding non-blacklisting and compliance with health, safety, and environmental regulations. The bid validity period is 120 days from the opening date. Bidders should submit their original bid security to the office of the Chief Engineer (MM) LESCO HQ Lahore before the bid submission deadline. The submission deadline is strictly enforced, and late bids will not be considered. The work order will be awarded to the highest qualified bidder per lot. A practical tip for bidders is to ensure timely submission of the original bid security and to visit the stores early to verify scrap conditions, as this will help in preparing accurate financial bids and avoid disqualification. All payments must be made within 21 working days of the Letter of Acceptance issuance to avoid forfeiture of bid security.
