Offer price must be all-inclusive and delivery is free at site, including loading and unloading.
Every pass/fail eligibility and qualification requirement: experience and past performance, turnover/net worth, registrations and certifications, consortium/JV rules, and debarment or blacklisting conditions.
The bidder or its OEM must have regularly manufactured and supplied the same or similar category products to a Central/State Government organisation or PSU for 1 financial year before bid opening.
The bidder or its OEM, directly or through resellers, must have supplied the same or similar category products equal to 10% of bid quantity in at least one of the last three financial years before bid opening to a Central/State Government organisation or PSU.
Eligible MSEs and DPIIT-registered startups receive complete relaxation from the stated experience and turnover criteria, provided they meet quality and technical specifications and upload proof of exemption eligibility.
Only Class-I and Class-II local suppliers are eligible; the stated minimum local content is 50% for Class-I and 20% for Class-II. Non-local suppliers are not eligible, subject to the document's stated allowance for eligible micro and small enterprises.
To claim MSE purchase preference, the bidder must hold a valid Udyam Certificate, be validated online, and be the manufacturer/OEM of the offered product on GeM; traders/resellers are not eligible for this preference.
A bidder from a country sharing a land border with India, or any bidder with a specified ToT arrangement with such an entity, is eligible only if registered with the Competent Authority; registration must be valid at bid submission and acceptance.
What is being procured: the work, supplies or services, deliverables and quantities, locations, phases, completion or delivery timelines, applicable standards, and notable exclusions.
Supply only of 2 units of 16 TB external hard disk; the bid price must include all supply cost components.
Each drive must be a 16 TB, 3.5-inch desktop HDD with USB 2.0/3.0 interface, approximately 120-200 MB/s transfer speed, 7200 RPM, Windows/macOS/Linux support, an external power adapter, and 2-year warranty.
Deliver both units within 15 days to Dharam Bir, 110067, Aruna Asaf Ali Marg, JNU Campus, New Delhi.
The complete checklist of documents to submit — mandatory vs conditional, with any prescribed formats, proformas or annexures — plus how to submit: portal and mode, envelope/cover structure, digital signature requirements, signing and attestation rules, and physical originals with their deadline.
Submit electronically on GeM as a Single Packet Bid. The selected offer is an already-listed GeM product, and participation constitutes acceptance of GTC, STC and ATC.
GeM applies e-signing to documents; the GTC states that its e-sign is at par with a digital signature under the Information Technology Act Amendment 2008. No separate DSC class is specified.
The bid does not require EMD or ePBG and does not mandate any physical bid document. The bid disclaimer bars making physical documents other than EMD and a signed Integrity Pact a pre-qualification condition.
Because this is a Single Packet Bid, the general prohibition on mentioning price in the technical bid does not apply; use the prescribed Excel upload for the item price and GST.
Every corrigendum/addendum in order — what changed (original vs amended value), its impact, and the action for the bidder — ending with the values that finally apply.
The AI found nothing to report for this question.
Genuine conflicts within and across the documents (original vs corrigenda, clause vs annexure, tender document vs BOQ): both sides with citations, and which value prevails.
If the value exceeds Rs 10 Crore, the bid-specific MII clause requires the auditor/accountant-certified declaration with the bid, while GTC 1.29 requires it at contract execution. The bid does not state an estimated value. A bidder crossing the threshold should follow the stricter bid-specific requirement and upload it with the bid, then furnish it again at execution if asked.
Only critical, tender-specific pre-bid queries that could materially change bid/no-bid, pricing, eligibility or contractual risk. Skip generic or obvious questions the documents already answer clearly.
Please specify the exact certificate marked as 'Certificate (Requested in ATC)', its required contents, issuer and signing requirement. The text ATC only asks bidders to quote to the attached specification and does not identify this certificate, creating a technical-rejection risk.
Please confirm whether USB 3.0 is mandatory (with USB 2.0 backward compatibility) or either interface is acceptable, and state the guaranteed minimum transfer speed/test method instead of the approximate '~120-200 MB/s' range. These points materially affect product selection and compliance.
Please confirm whether the auditor/accountant-certified local-content declaration for a value above Rs 10 Crore is required with the bid or at contract execution, because the bid-specific clause and GTC specify different stages.
Commercial, legal and execution risks a bidder should weigh: liquidated damages and penalties, unusual or one-sided clauses, tight timelines, and payment or security risks.
Both drives are due within 15 days and time is of the essence. Delay attracts LD at 0.5% of the contract value of delayed quantity per week or part, capped at 5% of total contract value; an inordinate delay (more than 25% of the completion period) permits deduction up to 10%.
The purchaser may increase or decrease award quantity by up to 25% at contract placement and may later increase contracted quantity by another 25% at the same rates. Bidders should lock stock and price capacity accordingly.
The specific warranty is 2 years, overriding the GTC's standard one year. During warranty, defective/nonconforming goods may have to be rectified or replaced within 7 days, with compensation exposure if the seller fails.
Payment starts only after CRAC and online billing. The consignee may reject within 10 days of receipt; rejected goods are unpaid and must be removed within 10 days at seller cost, failing which storage charges and disposal at seller risk may follow.
Failure to meet declared local content can attract a penalty up to 10% of contract value. A false declaration is a Code of Integrity breach and can lead to debarment for up to two years plus other legal action.
Failure to perform within the delivery period permits cancellation of the unsupplied portion and may trigger seller-rating downgrade or GeM debarment; although ePBG is not required here, other remedies remain available.
The inviting authority and relevant contacts: office, person, designation, address, phone and email — and which address receives physical submissions, if any.
