PROCUREMENT:
1. TENDERING FOR BIDS AND PROPOSALS / TECHNICAL EVALUATION:
At least three quotations will be required to complete the bidding process except proprietary items
of OEMS. In all other cases if not possibly three in certain situations, then at least two.
All the suppliers participating in the bids shall be PQV (prequalified vendors) with type tested
products. SC will constantly endeavor to prevent Single sources of supply by rendering a back end
process of R&D performed on potential suppliers identified by SC through a well indentified /
documented evaluation process.
TPRE to support in searching and recommending new vendors that can potentially become suppliers
of KESC of a particular product. Commercial and TE of the potential vendors to go on year round
ideally to be completed before the bidding process to allow them to participate in tenders.
The tender bidding process involving a new vendor that has been referred to TPRE for TE shall not
remain suspended owing to delays in receiving technical feedback from TPRE. The process must go
on with prevalent PQVs in place while the TE of a new vendor is awaited. The new vendor may then
be included in the next invitation for bids subject to positive evaluation of TPRE.

FINANCE:
In conjunction with SOPs of other departments, Finance Department shall give all out support to meet the
procurement time lines for ensuring smooth material supplies. In this regards we suggest following measures;
To review the Procurement's Monthly payment ceilings which determine the amount of payment
that can be made to a vendor in a month. This is seen as a limiting factor if procurement is to
enhance the delivery capability of a particular vendor.
Treasury's LC cap limits need to be reviewed and improvised on case to case basis to allow fresh L/C
for critical items to be opened. New L/C waits until previous LCs are brought under limits agreed with
banks.
While minimum dependence / prudent use of the option of cheque against delivery is being advised
to SC, finance will ensure that the cheque is released to the vendor within 15 days of delivery. The
departments involved to improve upon the response time are IM, FBA , C&A and Treasury.
FBA:
Revisit the entire process of finalization of an MR for annual consumption UD / FBA jointly
responsible for raising MR.
The exercise to start Jan 15th, 2014 to be finished by 1st Mar, 2014.
FBA to vet and approve 50% of the MR based on previous year demands and pass on to IM for
further processing within suggested time frame.
