Authority of person uploading bid with DSC must be evidenced as per entity type; POA on non-judicial stamp paper, duly notarized where POA used.
What is being procured: the work, supplies or services, deliverables and quantities, locations, phases, completion or delivery timelines, applicable standards, and notable exclusions.
Providing Canteen Services & Allied works at IOCL LPG Bottling Plant, North Guwahati (College Nagar, P.O. Abhoypur, Dist. Kamrup, Assam 781031) for 3 years.
Deploy canteen manpower as specified: Cooks, Cook Helpers, Servers, Cleaners and Cashier across shifts; SOR builds 3 skilled + 7 semi-skilled on working days and Sundays/holidays (36 months).
Quotable scope covers uniforms/PPE yearly, cleaning consumables (288 days), O&M of OWC/STP/kitchen equipment/water tanks/purifier (936 days), and preparation/serving of extensive food menu items (C1–C43) plus contractor profit margin line.
Buyer can increase or decrease contract quantity or duration up to 50% at issue of contract; after issue, only increase up to 50%. For lumpsum services, scope/value may increase up to 50% with service provider consent.
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.
Electronic two-packet bid only through GeM portal https://www.gem.gov.in; physical/manual bids not accepted. Price only in GeM price bid/BOQ—price disclosure elsewhere disqualifies.
Part-I Technical/unpriced bid with eligibility docs and undertakings; Part-II Price Bid only. Bid uploaded using bidder’s DSC; authority of DSC holder to be documented.
If EMD given as BG/ISB: upload scanned copy on GeM and send original in sealed envelope superscribed “Offline EMD”, bidder name, tender no., bid end date/time to Tender Issuing Authority; for two-bid, within 7 working days of technical bid opening.
POA on non-judicial stamp paper of appropriate value, duly notarized. Auditor/CA certificates need UDIN and bidding-entity signature. Bids/formats digitally signed; letterhead where required.
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.
No corrigendum or addendum files are present in the tender documents package; all dates, values and conditions are as in the original GeM bid dated 17-08-2026 and ATC/tender document ER-M&C/2026-27/PT/256.
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.
GeM Bid Document states bid offer validity 180 days from End Date; NIT cl. 13 states offer valid for 180 days from date of opening of techno-commercial bid.
Tender cover: conflict between Part A and Part B → Part A prevails; Part B may have superfluous clauses. GeM bid: SLA-specific conditions override GeM GTC if contradicted.
Scope Annexure-5 says Cashier = 2 worker per day in each shift; SCC wage clause and SOR skilled line use 3 skilled total (2 cooks + 1 cashier) with 7 semi-skilled.
SCC penalties clause introduces table “in relation to haulage services” though tender is canteen/allied works—template mismatch; listed penalties still appear intended for this contract.
GeM lists Facility Management Services - LumpSum Based; ATC/NIT title is Providing Canteen Services & Allied works at LPG BP North Guwahati.
GeM requires ePBG duration 51 months; Part A SCC releases SD after 12 months from completion (contract is 36 months, so ~48 months from start plus claim buffer may explain 51 months).
GeM attachments 1786691409.pdf (premise) and 1786691415.pdf (scope) are byte-identical 46-page ATC extracts; full tender PDF also contains Part A + Part B (179 pages).
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.
Ask IOCL to reconcile Annexure-5 cashier wording (“2 worker per day in each shift”) with SOR/SCC (3 skilled incl. 1 cashier + 7 semi-skilled) and confirm exact deployment and reimbursement basis.
Clarify whether 180-day validity runs from bid end date (GeM) or techno-commercial opening (NIT), and the resulting minimum BG/ISB expiry (validity + 3 months).
Confirm commercial model for menu items C1–C43: reimbursement only on IOCL orders/bills, employee/TT crew cash sales via cashier, pricing control, and treatment of unused indicative quantities and contractor profit margin line.
Request current notified rates, metering responsibility, billing cycle and whether recovery is at actuals only or any fixed charge; impact on cash flow given monthly bill cycle.
Seek copy/reference of applicable North Guwahati BP Memorandum of Settlement wage structure used (Rs. 837 / Rs. 929) and process/timeline for reimbursing statutory wage revisions beyond the fixed 10 manpower.
Confirm whether performance security must remain live for 51 months from award and acceptable instrument on GeM (ePBG vs offline SD modes).
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.
Monetary penalties for misbehaviour/negligence (Rs. 2,000+/incident), missing supervisor (Rs. 2,000/day or Rs. 15,000/month), late wage payment (Rs. 500 per labour per week delay), and non-performance at twice rate plus nil payment; after 2 warnings IOCL may get work done at contractor risk & cost; GST on recoveries.
IOCL may terminate for dissatisfaction/breach; NIT also allows one-month notice termination during tenure; no min/max quantum guarantee—utilization risk on quotable food/consumable volumes.
Cannot quote below non-quotable wage floor; competition only on quotable part (~Rs. 68.96 lakh incl. GST) covering food, consumables, O&M and profit—aggressive % below risks loss if volumes/input costs move.
Contractor must pay wages by 7th via RTGS/NEFT, hold PF/ESI/insurance, PMJJBY/PMSBY, licences; unpaid statutory/wages recoverable from bills; holiday listing for fraud/fake docs etc.
EMD forfeitable for tampering, fake documents, failure to submit SD/execute contract, failure of document verification; L1 back-out/price increase can cancel tender and forfeit EMD with holiday listing.
Buyer may vary quantity/duration up to 50%; electricity/LPG recovered from bills—cost and cash-flow risk.
L1 experience documents verified from end client; forged/false credentials lead to rejection, EMD forfeiture, holiday listing; next bidder considered.
The inviting authority and relevant contacts: office, person, designation, address, phone and email — and which address receives physical submissions, if any.
