Procurement of Fire Cable Trays in Nepal

Fire cable trays in Nepal can be procured through government e-procurement portals, private tender aggregators, and direct supplier quotations.

Government e-Procurement Platforms

The Public Procurement Monitoring Office (PPMO) manages Nepal's centralized e-Government Procurement (e-GP) system, which covers the full procurement lifecycle including registration of bidders, e-tendering, online evaluation, and contract management . All Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs) of the Government of Nepal use this system. Suppliers must register on the portal to access tender notices, submit bids, and download tender documents. The e-GP portal is hosted at the Government Integrated Data Center (GIDC) and is accessible online .
