All important dates as they stand after corrigenda: publication, pre-bid/clarification deadline, bid submission deadline, bid opening, and bid validity period.
The documents do not state a separate CPP Portal publication timestamp; the NIT is dated 07.09.2026.
No pre-bid meeting or clarification deadline is specified in the tender date table.
Submit technical and financial bids online by 14.09.2026 up to 11.00 AM.
Technical bids open on 15.09.2026 after 12.30 PM; a holiday shifts opening to the next working day at the same time.
75 (SEVENTY FIVE DAYS) from the last date of receipt of the technical bid.
Tender value or estimated cost, EMD/bid security (amount, acceptable forms, validity), tender document fees, performance security, and key payment terms.
Estimated cost is Rs. 3,72,604.00. Quote at par/excess/less on the total; rates include all taxes, duties, levies and GST.
EMD is Rs.7,452.00. Accepted modes are Insurance Surety Bond, Account Payee DD, FDR, Banker's Cheque, BG/e-BG or Direct Credit/NEFT/RTGS/ECS. Deposit any physical instrument within the bid period; upload the instrument/receipt or UTR.
Clause 8 requires six months or more from bid closing; the printed form says 120 days or more. Use six months pending clarification.
Tender processing fee is not applicable and documents are downloadable free of cost.
5% of tendered value, due within 7 days of LOA; only one further day is allowed at 0.1% late fee per day. Failure automatically forfeits EMD. A PG bank guarantee remains enforceable until obligations are discharged, with a six-month post-expiry claim period.
2.5% of tendered value, recovered at 2.5% from each running bill until the prescribed total is reached.
Interim payment requires Rs.50,000 of eligible gross work/adjustments since the prior payment. Final payment waits for contractor-funded earth, polarity, insulation and continuity tests; statutory deductions apply at source.
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.
Appropriate-class electrical registration/enlistment with DOP, BSNL, CPWD, Railways, MES or B&R Wing Bihar PWD, valid on bid closing (or original closing if only the deadline is extended).
In the last seven years: 3 similar works each ≥Rs.1.49 Lakhs, or 2 each ≥Rs.2.24 Lakhs, or 1 ≥Rs.2.98 Lakhs. Similar work is “Providing EI, Fans & AC Machines”; values escalate 7% simple annually. Completion certificates must be from EE/equivalent and disclose dates, amount/capacity and compensation; compensated works are not satisfactory.
Three-year average annual turnover ending 31 March of the previous FY must be ≥50% of estimated cost, certified by CA with UDIN. Zero years count; figures escalate 7% simple annually. DOP-enlisted contractors of appropriate class are exempt from turnover and experience submissions.
Joint ventures are not accepted and no part of the work may be sublet.
Valid PAN and electrical contractor licence are mandatory. Submit GST registration if held; otherwise undertake to obtain State registration within one month of award or before payment, whichever is earlier. Successful bidder supplies applicable labour/EPFO/ESIC/BOCW registrations or application proof.
Affidavit must deny execution of eligible similar works through another contractor on a back-to-back basis; violation can cause permanent DOP debarment and forfeiture of EMD/PG.
No bid where a near relative holds a specified post in the awarding/executing circle; breach debars. Retired gazetted engineers/officers need prior permission during the first post-retirement year. Canvassing leads to rejection.
What is being procured: the work, supplies or services, deliverables and quantities, locations, phases, completion or delivery timelines, applicable standards, and notable exclusions.
Comprehensive maintenance of electrical installations/fans, computer wiring and compound lighting at Silout Sub Post Office under Muzaffarpur Division.
The 41-item schedule includes 16 new and 25 rewired light/fan points; 150 m new circuit/submain wiring; 156 m cable in existing conduits; modular accessories/conduits; LED fittings and fans; CAT6 cabling/outlets; GI earthing; 80 m 2x6 sq.mm XLPE aluminium power cable with laying/terminations; street/gate lights, brackets and boxes.
Complete within 15 days after civil-work completion. Schedule F also reckons start seven days from LOA; coordinate with civil work and obtain layout within seven days after award.
Use CPWD Electrical Part-I Internal 2023, Part-II External 2023, tender specifications and CEA safety regulations. Obtain make/material approvals and perform earth, polarity, insulation and earth-continuity tests at bidder cost before final payment.
General guarantee is one year; LED lamps need five-year OEM warranty from commissioning; panel components are guaranteed 18 months from supply or one year from commissioning, whichever is earlier.
Department may take quantities wholly, partly or delete them. Contractor bears storage/watch, transport, damage rectification, tools/plants, utilities/access and worker facilities unless expressly provided.
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 at https://eprocure.gov.in/eprocure/app in simultaneous Technical and Financial envelopes; technical evaluation precedes financial opening.
Use Class III DSC with signing-key usage; self-attest/digitally sign documents. Upload the signed tender and completed actual BOQ without altering its filename/protected cells.
Deposit physical EMD by bid closing with the inviting EE/AE or any DOP EE and upload its receipt. L1 submits certified copies of all uploads to AE(E), PESD Patna-800001 within seven days/one week after financial opening; originals may be demanded anytime.
Regional-language documents also require a scanned notarised English version.
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.
Clause says six months; printed form says 120 days. Use at least six months and seek clarification.
One clause makes all materials contractor-supplied; another promises free-issue PESD material, while Schedule B identifies none. No clear value prevails; obtain a definitive list before pricing.
Generic instructions allow Class II or III, but tender-specific Clause 6 mandates Class III; Class III prevails.
NIT calls the file BoQ_87.xls and BoQ_00087.xls, but supplied file is BOQ_972428.xls and filename changes are prohibited. Upload the actual downloaded filename unchanged.
Clause text says permanent CPWD debarment; printed Annexure III says permanent DOP-Civil Wing debarment. Use Annexure III verbatim and seek scope clarification.
The BOQ is identified for Silout electrical work but also contains unrelated sluice-valve chamber descriptions. Do not alter protected cells; request confirmation that they are harmless template artifacts.
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.
Confirm exactly which materials and quantities are free-issued versus contractor-supplied; conflicting clauses directly affect price/logistics.
Confirm the civil-completion/site-handover date starting the 15 days, interaction with the seven-day LOA start, and relief for civil/access delay.
Must every cited work include AC machines, or will comparable EI/fans/computer/compound-light work qualify?
Confirm whether six months or 120 days applies and provide the exact required expiry date.
Confirm BOQ_972428.xls is correct despite NIT filenames and that unrelated sluice-chamber cells will not affect evaluation.
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.
Only 15 days after civil completion, with other agencies and live postal operations; civil/access delays can jeopardize milestones.
Each missed milestone permits 1% of tendered value to be withheld. Non-provision of stipulated technical representative attracts Rs.10,000 (diploma) / Rs.15,000 (degree) recovery as applicable.
Rs.7,452 EMD, 5% PG and 2.5% SD strain cash flow. PG has a seven-day deadline plus only one paid day. Withdrawal/modification can forfeit 50% then 100% of EMD and bar rebidding.
Conflicting material-supply clauses and unilateral reduction/deletion of quantities create margin and mobilization risk; transport/storage are contractor-borne.
Bidder is deemed fully informed even without inspection, gets no extra for misunderstanding, funds utilities/resources, and makes good building damage at own risk/cost.
Rs.50,000 threshold for interim payment, 2.5% running-bill SD deduction and tests before final payment can defer recovery on this small, fast contract.
General guarantee is one year and LEDs require five-year OEM warranty coordination, leaving obligations beyond the 15-day execution period.
The inviting authority and relevant contacts: office, person, designation, address, phone and email — and which address receives physical submissions, if any.
