All important dates as they stand after corrigenda: publication, pre-bid/clarification deadline, bid submission deadline, bid opening, and bid validity period.
Published on 25 June 2026 at 13:24 GMT (18:54 IST), as recorded in the portal metadata; no tender attachment prints the publication timestamp.
Queries were due by 01 July 2026 at 17:30 IST; the pre-bid conference was held on 02 July 2026 at 12:30 IST. No queries were to be entertained after the conference.
After the portal-only Date Corrigendum 13, online bid submission closes 28 July 2026 at 15:00 IST and the technical bid opens 28 July 2026 at 15:30 IST. This is one extension from the original 21 July 2026 timings; the final date corrigendum has no attached citable document.
The bid remains valid for 75 days from the date of opening of the technical bid (therefore from 28 July 2026 under the final portal extension).
Tender value or estimated cost, EMD/bid security (amount, acceptable forms, validity), tender document fees, performance security, and key payment terms.
₹86,80,03,387: Civil ₹58,90,88,991; Horticulture ₹23,10,329; Electrical ₹27,66,04,067.
₹96,80,034. Acceptable forms are Treasury Challan, Demand Draft, Pay Order, Banker's Cheque, Deposit at Call Receipt, Insurance Surety Bond or FDR. Part EMD may be a bank/e-bank guarantee: at least 50% of EMD or ₹20 lakh, whichever is less, must be in the prescribed non-BG forms and the balance may be a bank guarantee valid at least 180 days from bid receipt. The instrument must issue from the bidder's own account. Original EMD is deposited with any CPWD Executive Engineer during bid submission and its receipt uploaded. EMD is returned after receipt of performance guarantee for the successful bidder.
Nil: tender documents are downloadable free of cost and collection of tender-document cost is dispensed with.
Performance guarantee is 5% of the tendered value or ECPT, whichever is higher. If the tendered amount is below 80% of ECPT, add the full difference between 80% of ECPT and the tendered amount. Security deposit is 2.5% of tendered value. Schedule F requires PG within 7 days of acceptance and allows only 3 further days at 0.1% of PG per day; this conflicts with the 7-day extension stated elsewhere and should be clarified.
Interim-payment eligibility thresholds are gross work plus net adjustment of advances of ₹327 lakh for Civil, ₹5 lakh for Horticulture and ₹153 lakh for Electrical, or part thereof at the Engineer-in-Charge's discretion. Component running payments are made to the main contractor by the respective Engineer-in-Charge; the Civil EE consolidates and pays the final bill. No interest is payable on withheld or otherwise payable sums unless specifically stated.
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.
CPWD Building & Roads contractors of appropriate class/category and other reputed firms satisfying the criteria may bid. The CPWD enlistment must be valid on the original submission date. Joint ventures and special-purpose vehicles are not accepted as bidders; prior JV experience may be credited only to the applicant's documented share/responsibility.
During the last seven years ending the last day of the month before tender invitation: three similar works of at least ₹3,472.01 lakh each, or two of at least ₹5,208.02 lakh each, or one of at least ₹6,944.03 lakh. Similar work means an RCC-framed building with civil and E&M services including any four of VRF/VRV, lift, firefighting, fire alarm, DG set, substation, LAN, CCTV and EPABX in one agreement in India. Values escalate at simple 7% yearly. Separate specialized-E&M contracts can establish technical competence but their value is not added for monetary qualification.
Bidding capacity must be at least the estimated cost and applies to every bidder, including CPWD-enlisted contractors. General formula: [A × N × M] − B, where A is maximum construction turnover in any of the last seven years escalated 7% yearly, N is the completion period in years, M is 1.5 for this sub-₹1,000 crore tender, and B is commitments during the execution period. Special proportional formulas apply to newly enlisted successor entities under the cited enlistment rules.
For non-CPWD-enlisted bidders: average annual construction turnover of ₹2,859.63 lakh for the last three years ending 31 March 2025, CA-certified with UDIN; positive PAT in at least three of the last five years; and either a commercial-bank certificate for ₹3,472.01 lakh or CA net-worth certificate with UDIN for at least ₹868.00 lakh. CPWD-enlisted contractors are exempt from these turnover/loss/solvency tests. The ₹2,859.63 lakh CPWD-6 value is used because Section II expressly makes CPWD-6 the eligibility criterion, despite Section I printing ₹2,604.01 lakh.
After passing initial eligibility, bidders are scored out of 100: financial strength 20, similar-work experience 20, time-overrun performance 20 and quality 40. A bidder must score at least 50% in each category and 60% overall. Eligible completed works and one ongoing work may be inspected for quality.
Bidder must provide PAN and GST registration (or the prescribed post-award undertaking). A valid electrical licence is required at execution, either held by the bidder or by an associated eligible electrical agency. The main contractor must associate appropriately CPWD-registered agencies for each specialized/minor component; failure can cause withdrawal of that component and execution at the main contractor's risk and cost.
Bidder must declare no Central/State Government, PSU or autonomous-body blacklisting, deregistration or debarment during the last five years; no back-to-back execution of claimed eligible works; and no structural/infrastructure failure making completed work unfit during the last 25 years. False/violating declarations permit EMD/PG/security forfeiture, termination and, for back-to-back work or structural failure, permanent CPWD debarment.
What is being procured: the work, supplies or services, deliverables and quantities, locations, phases, completion or delivery timelines, applicable standards, and notable exclusions.
Construct at RIE Campus, Bhubaneswar a 1,500-seat auditorium with seating gallery and cafeteria/dining below it, two exhibition halls and two conference halls, together with civil, horticulture and electrical/mechanical works. The entire composite scope is under one agreement and is complete only when every component is complete.
RCC-framed main/service buildings with M40/M30 design-mix concrete, post-tensioned members, masonry/AAC partitions, space-frame insulated aluminium roofing, façade/doors/windows, extensive floor/finish/acoustic wall and ceiling systems, plumbing/sanitary/drainage/waterproofing, 1,500 auditorium chairs, one control-room table, and wardrobe/mirror works in green and rehearsal rooms.
Includes internal roads/footpaths/drains/sewerage, 2.0-lakh-litre underground sump, septic tank for 300 users, rainwater harvesting, one tube well, accessibility ramps, landscaping and maintenance; plus internal/external electrification, VRF, street lighting, wet-riser/sprinkler and fire alarm, DG and substation, LAN/CCTV/EPABX/online UPS, audio-video/stage lighting, passenger lift, pumps and RO drinking water.
Complete within 14 months from the contractual start/first site handover, whichever is later, inclusive of normal monsoon. Final deliverables include testing/commissioning, as-built drawings, completion and occupancy certificates, all post-construction statutory clearances/NOCs (including fire and lift), handover and agreement closure. Follow CPWD 2019 Civil specifications with corrections, relevant BIS codes, listed CPWD electrical specifications, approved structural/latest architectural drawings and tender particulars.
Only auditorium furniture is included; furniture for conference and dining halls is excluded. Existing underground utilities may require relocation by the contractor, payable as an extra item under the NIT. Functional items required by approved drawings remain included in quoted rates even if omitted from the brief provisions.
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 online at https://etender.cpwd.gov.in in a two-bid system: technical/eligibility bid first and financial percentage-rate bid later for qualified bidders. Upload JPG/PDF files using a valid Class-III digital signature certificate with encryption key (combo type). Every uploaded statement, document and certificate must be signed by the bidder, accepting responsibility for authenticity.
Deposit original EMD with the inviting EE or any CPWD Executive Engineer within the online bid-submission period and upload Form-F receipt. The lowest bidder must submit certified hard copies of all uploaded eligibility documents in a sealed, work-name-superscribed cover to Executive Engineer Bhubaneswar-III within one week of opening of the financial bid; discrepancy from uploads invalidates the bid.
Individual/proprietor signs personally. A partnership bid is signed by all partners or a partner holding certified power of attorney and includes certified partnership deed/current partner addresses. A company/corporation bid is signed by an authorized POA holder and includes the POA plus memorandum/articles attested by a Public Notary. Affidavits must be current-dated after tender invitation.
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.
Confirmed operating-campus restrictions, contractor-provided water/electricity, conditional permission for an on-campus RMC plant, deposit-work funding, PDF-only drawings, possible underground utilities (relocation paid as extra), and exclusion of conference/dining furniture. It promised a milestone corrigendum. Bidder action: price access/noise restrictions, utilities, permits and utility relocation interfaces; do not include non-auditorium furniture.
The attached files are byte-identical where present; several issue entries have no file. Substantively, E&M make/model approvals were removed from milestone 1 (1.5 months) and added to milestone 2 (3.5 months), with the 0.55% withholding unchanged. KNAUF was added as preferred make for listed ceiling/acoustic materials. Bidder action: program E&M submittals by 3.5 months, not the requested 5 months, and account for the added preferred make.
Replaced carpet item 23.7/NS-48 from a generic 2,188 sqm at ₹1,988.50 to a detailed WELSPUN 100% nylon-cut-pile specification, quantity 1,571.522 sqm at ₹2,768.55; total remains ₹43,50,838. Bidder action: price the amended quantity/specification and five-year principal warranty, not the original generic carpet.
Added a new Form G bank-guarantee format on minimum ₹100 non-judicial stamp paper, expressly superseding GCC-2023's form, for EMD/PG/security deposit/mobilization advance. Bidder action: use the attached two-page form for any bank guarantee and calculate EMD BG validity as 180 days for this two-bid tender.
Added preferred makes for aluminium sheet/accessories/halters and rockwool, and broadened roofing item 21.1/NS-1 from Kingspan KingZip SF 65/400 to 65/400 or 65/435 aluminium standing-seam roofing while retaining performance/certification requirements. Bidder action: base vendor offers on the amended generic profile options and new approved-make list.
Portal metadata extends submission/opening once, from 21 July 2026 at 15:00/15:30 IST to 28 July 2026 at 15:00/15:30 IST. No file is attached, so the original document below evidences only the superseded values. Bidder action: submit by the portal's final 28 July deadline and retain portal evidence of the extension.
Submission/opening: 28 July 2026, 15:00/15:30 IST; EMD ₹96,80,034; completion 14 months; E&M make/model approval due by milestone 2 at 3.5 months; amended carpet 1,571.522 sqm; Corrigendum-IV Form G governs guarantees; Corrigendum-V roofing profiles/makes govern. All other terms remain unchanged.
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.
Section I states ₹2,604.01 lakh, while CPWD-6 states ₹2,859.63 lakh. Section II clause 7.1 expressly says initial eligibility is 'as per CPWD-6', so ₹2,859.63 lakh is the operative conservative threshold; obtain written confirmation before bid.
The prescribed receipt Form F prints ₹96,80,231, whereas the notice, CPWD-6 and Schedule E consistently require ₹96,80,034. The repeated ₹96,80,034 amount prevails; have the receiving office correct/endorse Form F rather than depositing the misprinted amount.
Section I permits 7 initial days plus up to 7 extension days, while the work-specific Schedule F permits 7 days plus only 3 extension days. The specific Schedule F entry should govern, so plan for 7+3 days, but request confirmation because the consequences are material.
Section I clause 13 says 01 July 2026 at 15:00; the notice, CPWD-6 and Section II say 02 July 2026 at 12:30, and the issued minutes confirm the meeting occurred then. The minutes' phrase '02th June 2026' is an obvious date typo because the minutes are dated 06 July and query rows are dated 02/07/2026. The actual 02 July 12:30 meeting prevails.
CPWD-6 loosely requires L1 certified copies 'within a week' physically, without a trigger, while Section II specifically says within a week of financial-bid opening. Use the Section II deadline and deliver to Executive Engineer Bhubaneswar-III.
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.
Will CPWD evaluate non-enlisted bidders against ₹2,859.63 lakh in CPWD-6 or ₹2,604.01 lakh in Section I? Request an explicit corrigendum because this is pass/fail.
Confirm whether the maximum extension after the initial seven days is three days under Schedule F or seven days under Section I, and identify the exact forfeiture/acceptance consequence for late submission.
Please issue/confirm a corrected Form F showing EMD ₹96,80,034 rather than ₹96,80,231, and instruct EMD-receiving offices how to endorse the form.
The pre-bid minutes reproduce a request to waive contractor BIM staffing/recovery but print no CPWD reply, while Schedule F makes BIM mandatory and imposes a minimum ₹2 lakh/month recovery for non-deployment. Confirm that BIM remains fully applicable, the required staffing period, deliverable/LOD/software requirements and recovery trigger.
Schedule F leaves all site-handover periods blank ('*') and pre-bid replies say unknown underground utilities may exist. Request a dated encumbrance-wise handover plan and available utility/GPR survey so the 14-month programme and relocation allowance can be priced.
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.
Nine milestones culminate in full completion, approvals/NOCs and handover by month 14. Non-achievement withholds 0.55% of tendered cost for each of milestones 1-8 and 0.60% for milestone 9 (5.00% cumulatively). Corrigendum II only moves E&M make/model approval to month 3.5. Monthly progress-report delay also recovers ₹1,00,000 per month pro rata.
Base PG is 5% of tendered value or ECPT, whichever is higher, plus the full shortfall below 80% of ECPT for an abnormally low bid; security deposit is another 2.5%. Bid withdrawal can forfeit 50% of EMD within seven days after closing or 100% thereafter, and excludes the bidder from rebidding the work.
The site is accepted 'as is where is'; no claim is allowed for misunderstood ground/access/site conditions. The contractor bears water, power, standby supply, testing utilities, connections, deposits and permits. RIE may restrict high-noise work during classes/exams and control gate access. Unknown underground services may require relocation, creating interface and programme risk even though measured relocation is stated payable as extra.
The bidder accepts the soil report as indicative and cannot claim for differing strata or variable groundwater. Dewatering design/operation, monsoon protection, flooding damage and keeping below-ground work dry are at contractor cost, with no hindrance claim.
Contractor must prepare coordinated shop/as-built drawings, seek approval before procurement, secure statutory permissions and deliver all functionally required drawing items even if omitted from the brief, without extra payment. Architectural/structural drawings are phased; requests must be made 30 days ahead or no hindrance is recognized. Schedule F nevertheless leaves site-handover periods blank.
Interim-payment thresholds are high, the job is identified as a deposit work, and no interest is payable on withheld/payable amounts or pre-award/pendent-lite arbitral amounts. CPWD also excludes liability for loss of use, profit, overhead or consequential loss arising from extension, termination, scope reduction or other contract events.
Failure to appoint eligible specialized/minor agencies can cause that scope to be withdrawn and executed at the main contractor's risk and cost. BIM remains marked applicable; failure to deploy a BIM professional attracts at least ₹2 lakh per month, while the pre-bid waiver request has no printed answer.
