In order to take care of the above,
Electric Planning and Design Wing was established to
ensure efficient and continuous supply of electricity
is made available to consumers on Wide geographical
area at lowest cost and at specified voltage and frequncy
i:e Providing of Quality Power.
Electric Planning
and Design (EP&D) Wing is one of the premier wings

post insulators
k)220KV and 132KV Capacitive voltage
transformers
The procurment process is monitored
through following stages:
1) Floating of tenders after compilation
of tender documents incorporating therein all nessary
details like terms & conditons,technical specifications
and other details necessary for qualification of tenders.
2) Giving wide publicity to the NIT
through print and electronic media including sending
the NIT to leading manufacturers.
3) Reciept of tenders on due date and
keeping them in safe custody till opening.
3) Opening of technical bids. Processing
of technical perameters after comparing them with NIT
specifications so as to ascertain which tenders qualify
for opening of price bids. Across the table discussions
by tender -opening- committee for opening of price bids
in presence of bidders or their authorised representatives.
4) Processing of the complete case.
Its evaluation in terms of financial & technical
implications. Despatching the complete case to financial
organication for pre-check for comments and observations
regarding financial aspects.
5) Prepration of Agenda note of purchase
cases incorporating therein reply to pre-check observations
and suggested modifications/alterations of financial

of relevant purchase commitee members. Fixing of date
of convening of meeting convenient to all members of
the commitee.
6) Deleberation of each purchase case
threadbare by the relevant purchase commitee(of which
Chief Engineer EP&D Wing is a standing member).
Issuance of the minutes of the meeting contaning decisions
taken by the purchase commitee.
7) Preparation of detailed Purchase
Order as per the decisions of the purchase commitee
by the team comprising of Officers from technical and
financial side in close association,so that no room
is left for any lacunae or loopholes or any ambiguity.
8) Processing of Drawings recieved
from the suppliers for various equipment. Sorting out
discrepancies found in drawings, taking up of all issues
relating to drawings with the manufacturer so as to
suit the requirment of the department. Across the table
discussions with the authorised engineer/s of the firm
to speed up the process of approval to drawings,if needed
.
9) Processing of Bank-Gurantee &
agreement documents recieved from the various firms

from respective Bankers.
10) Monitoring of delivery schedule
in terms of the delivery clause of purchase order, coordinating
with CPRI, the third party inspaction agency, for speedy
inspection of material/equipment. Ascertaining the status
of dispach of material from thr firm. Confirmation of
delivery from consignees.
11) Secrutiny of CPRI test reports.
Monitoring of the performance of the equipments installed,Verification
of performance report received from the consignee leading
to releasing of performance related component of BG.
Thus
whole process of procurment action is monitored till
the hole process reaches its logical end. In short the
wing acts as a facilitator between user wings and suppliers
by way of tendering and processing of bids.
This wing is also involved in
scrutiny of various developmental schemes and projects
for approval of Techno-Economic-Committee.
This wing is also responsible for
scrutinizing cost data on yearly basis, framed by Executive
wings of Deptt. viz. EM&RE wings and S&O wings.
This wing follows B.I.S, I.E.C, C.B.I.P,
C.E.A standards and specifications, ensuring thereby
procurement of world class quality equipment/ material
at optimum cost and time. This wing also acts as technical
consultants to other wings of PDD where ever difficulty
in technical matters including designs is experienced
by them. |
