15-Day Turnaround with AI-Powered Vendor Discovery for Complex Civil Works in 4 Bio CNG Plants

Overview

Our client is a leader in renewable energy solutions, offering turnkey solutions in biogas, Bio-CNG, ethanol, and green hydrogen. They had a strong track record in sustainable energy infrastructure. Now, they were expanding with four new CBG plants across Haryana.

They needed qualified civil vendors, especially for large tanks built using the slipform shuttering method.

The scope also covered internal roads, drainage systems, equipment, and pipe rack foundations, as well as RCC paving, buildings, precast boundary walls, and administrative blocks, spread across four locations.

Challenges

• Specialized Technical Requirements: The slipform shuttering technique demands specific expertise that few vendors possess, particularly for large-diameter tanks exceeding 10 meters.
• Remote Location Constraints: The plants were located in remote areas, requiring vendors willing and equipped to work in challenging locations with limited infrastructure support.
• Quality Assurance Standards: Water-retaining structures needed vendors experienced in hydro-testing protocols, including level verification, surface seepage monitoring, and dampness assessment.
• Multi-Site Coordination: Managing construction across four simultaneous locations required vendors with sufficient scale and project management capabilities.

Vendor Attributes

The ideal vendor needed to meet the following pre-qualification criteria (PQR):

• Proven experience in industrial civil construction, including factory buildings, equipment foundations, and RCC roads.
• Executed large-diameter RCC tanks (diameter > 10 meters), silos, cooling towers, or chimneys.
• Demonstrated use of slipform technology in previous civil structures.
• Prior execution of circular RCC tanks in ETP/STP/WTP or water distribution systems.
• Minimum turnover of ₹ 50 Cr in the last financial year.

Venwiz Solution
