The AI found nothing to report for this question.
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.
Agencies may apply for any or all of two enlistment categories: I02 Application Development Services and I03 Manpower Supply Services (codes renumbered by Corrigendum 1).
For Application Development (revised code I02 / Clause 3.1): minimum one software development order of Rs 17.5 lakhs OR two orders of Rs 10 lakhs each, in the last 3 years.
At least one technology order of Rs 17.5 lakhs OR two of Rs 10 lakhs each on website/portal/application using listed stacks with Oracle or Microsoft SQL Server backend, last 3 years.
Minimum 25 technically qualified IT professionals on company rolls; bidding company must hold valid CMMI Level III certification.
Manpower Supply category (revised code I03 / Clause 3.2) uses the same project-experience and technology-experience thresholds as Application Development (Rs 17.5 lakh one order OR Rs 10 lakh two orders; same tech list and RDBMS backend).
Deployed minimum 5 qualified IT professionals for software development in each of at least 2 organizations during the last 3 years; software-maintenance-only experience is excluded.
Same as Application Development: minimum 25 IT professionals on rolls with Annexure B self-certification, and valid CMMI Level III certificate.
IT Professional means B.Tech./B.E. in Computer Science Engineering or MCA from a recognized university/institution, with minimum 2 years’ software development experience in the relevant skillset.
No consortium enlistment; no subcontracting unless explicitly allowed; non-conforming applications are summarily rejected.
Terms and conditions applicable to contractors seeking enlistment with EIL also apply to agencies under this EOI (text of those general T&Cs is not reproduced in this EOI PDF).
What is being procured: the work, supplies or services, deliverables and quantities, locations, phases, completion or delivery timelines, applicable standards, and notable exclusions.
This is an EOI for enlistment/empanelment of Service Providers for IT Application Development and Manpower Supply; project work is awarded later via separate RFQs to enlisted agencies.
Selected SP may perform full-lifecycle application work depending on RFQ: requirements, UI/UX, web/mobile/backend/API, DB, integrations, cloud, testing, security, Gov guidelines compliance, training, and post-deployment support.
Deploy qualified IT professionals (analysts, developers, testers, administrators and other specialists) for development, maintenance and support; SP owns replacement, payroll/statutory compliance, security adherence, training and scalable timely deployment.
EOI does not fix work location, quantities, phases or completion timelines; those will be set in project-specific RFQs after enlistment.
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.
Enlistment applications must be filed only on the EIL Contractor Enlistment Portal https://ces.eil.co.in/; any other mode is rejected. This EOI PDF is information-only.
Annexures A, B and C are to be on company letter head with Place, Date, Signature & Stamp.
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.
Corrigendum–01 (Document 4994-EOI-ITS-1 Rev. 0) renumbers trade codes only: I01→I02 (Application Development Services) and I02→I03 (Manpower Supply Services); all other EOI terms remain unchanged.
Finally applicable trade codes are I02 (Application Development Services) and I03 (Manpower Supply Services); eligibility thresholds, scope lists, annexures and contacts stand as in EOI Rev. 0 without further amendment.
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.
EOI body still prints categories as I01/I02 while Corrigendum 1 requires those strings to be read as I02/I03; the corrigendum prevails for all applications and portal category selection.
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 provide or link the full “Terms and Conditions ... applicable for contractors seeking enlistment with EIL” that Clause “How to apply” item 3 incorporates by reference, including any fees, securities, debarment rules or document checklist beyond this EOI.
Confirm whether there is a hard last date/time to file the enlistment application on https://ces.eil.co.in/ (and any eProcure-linked cut-off), since the EOI body states no submission, opening or validity dates.
Confirm the exact trade category codes selectable on https://ces.eil.co.in/ post Corrigendum 1 (I02 Application Development / I03 Manpower Supply) and whether legacy I01/I02 labels still appear in the portal dropdown.
For revised category I03, Criterion 1 still requires executed software development orders (not mere manpower supply). Please confirm whether staffing-only contracts can ever qualify under 3.2 Criterion 1, or only under the separate “Manpower Deployment” criterion.
Clarify whether “Relevant pages of Design document showing technology used certified by Client” is mandatory in all technology-PTR cases, and what alternate proof is accepted if the client will not certify design pages.
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.
Enlistment only creates eligibility to receive future project RFQs; the EOI itself awards no contract, quantities or revenue.
EIL may modify, withdraw or cancel the EOI/enlistment/empanelment at any stage without assigning reason; any EIL decision is final and binding on the agency.
Any non-conformance to qualifying conditions causes summary rejection; EIL may contact/visit end-client sites for uploaded orders.
Consortium enlistment is prohibited; successful agency may not subcontract unless EIL explicitly allows — limits teaming strategies.
Even if overall project value qualifies, the agency is considered only for technologies backed by submitted PTRs — not for the full tech list by default.
For manpower RFQs, SP must replace non-performing/absent resources, run payroll and statutory compliance, and meet EIL security/confidentiality obligations — cost and compliance risk sits with the SP.
Manpower Supply category still demands software-development order values and CMMI Level III plus 25 on-roll IT professionals; mere manpower supply is excluded from project-experience credit.
Applications through any mode other than https://ces.eil.co.in/ are not considered — procedural rejection risk if agencies email responses to the listed contacts.
The inviting authority and relevant contacts: office, person, designation, address, phone and email — and which address receives physical submissions, if any.
