NIT states ninety days; DTCN states 3 months — treated as the same validity window.
Validity may be extended if agreed by the tenderer and the Department.
Withdrawal or modification of terms before expiry attracts suspension for the time specified in the tender documents; portal blocking grounds also cover backing out during validity.

Post-award timelines

L1 must furnish initial security / APSD and sign the P1 agreement within 7 days of written acceptance intimation; APS (if applicable) is also due within 7 days of intimation.

L1 originals of scanned documents are to be produced after price-bid opening (documents state both 5 days and 7 days — see contradictions).
Work Order / Letter of Proceed issues only after acceptable Performance Security and Additional Performance Security are furnished.
Time for completion of the Bijepur work is 6 months (Annexure-A Col.7).

Financials

Tender value or estimated cost, EMD/bid security (amount, acceptable forms, validity), tender document fees, performance security, and key payment terms.

Estimated cost / amount put to tender

Approx. estimated cost for the Bijepur RI Office-cum-Residence is Rs.75.64 lakhs; BOQ total is Rs.75,64,487.747 (exclusive of GST).

Percentage-rate tender: bidder quotes % excess/less (up to two decimals); quoting zero % is treated at par with estimated/schedule rates.
Amount put to tender is exclusive of GST; rates to be offered excluding GST.
GST on works contract is paid over each work bill on production of tax invoice.

EMD / bid security

EMD is Rs.75,640 (shown as EMD @ 1%), to be paid online only through the e-procurement payment gateway.

Non-submission of bid security in the designated online process debars participation and can cancel portal registration.
Engineer contractors seeking EMD exemption must upload an original affidavit stating exemption has not been availed for more than 3 works (excluding this work) in the current financial year, naming those works/authorities; without it, exemption is refused / tender rejected.
Successful tenderer's EMD is retained and dealt with under the contract form; unsuccessful EMDs are refundable on application after rejection intimation.
False/fabricated information leads to EMD forfeiture, portal registration block and blacklisting liability.

Tender document fee

Cost of bid documents is Rs.10,000 (non-refundable), payable online via the e-procurement portal.

NIT cites www.tendersodisha.gov.in for paper-cost payment; other clauses also use www.tendersorissa.gov.in / https://tendersodisha.gov.in.

Performance security / initial security deposit

On acceptance, L1 must make Initial Security Deposit/APSD so that ISD + EMD equals 2% of the tendered amount, and sign PWD Form P1 agreement within 7 days.

Acceptable ISD instruments: State Government Loan Bonds of Orissa State, N.S.C. or Postal time deposit (no other form).
Agreement signing location: office of the Executive Engineer, Rural Works Division, Bhawanipatna (or as directed).
Security (with EMD and amounts withheld under P1) is retained for due fulfilment; for this building work, refund is One Year after completion provided final bill is paid and defects are rectified.
Failure to agree / deposit security forfeits earnest money; tender is not finally accepted until security is deposited.
Award letter also states Performance Security and additional security; Work Order issues only after acceptable Performance Security and APS are furnished.

Additional Performance Security (APS)

If bid amount is less than estimated cost put to tender, L1 must deposit the exact differential (estimated cost minus quoted amount) as APS within 7 days of intimation.

Form: Demand Draft / Term Deposit Receipt pledged in favour of the Superintending Engineer, Rural Works Division, Bhawanipatna (NIT also says Superintending Engineer of concerned Division).
Governed as per OM No-173/W dated-03.01.2026 of Works Department, Govt. of Odisha.
Default: bid cancelled, security deposit forfeited, and blacklisting proceedings initiated.

Payment terms, deductions and related charges

Running bills attract statutory deductions; GST is reimbursed on invoices; no interest is payable on dues; labour cess is 1%.

Income Tax deducted as per IT Rules (1% or 2% as applicable).
GST reimbursed as per Govt. Rules; labour cess @1% of gross bill amount is deducted.
Under no circumstances is interest chargeable for dues or additional dues payable for the work.
No payment for bench marks, level pillars, profiles, benching/leveling of ground; quoted rates are for finished items inclusive of carriage and incidentals.
For items quoted grossly below estimate/CSR, the differential amount is withheld until those items are completed satisfactorily.
Price escalation clauses apply only where original stipulated completion exceeds 18 months (this work is 6 months), subject to the detailed DTCN escalation conditions.
Orissa Construction Corporation Ltd. is allowed price preference up to 3% on the lowest quotation/tender (Works & Transport Deptt. Resolution).

Eligibility

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.

Registration / class of contractor

Only registered contractors may bid; for this work (Rs.75.64 lakh) Annexure-A requires B Class, matching the NIT band for estimated cost more than Rs.20.00 lakhs and less than Rs.3.00 Crore.

Eligible: contractors registered with the State Government, or equivalent grade/class registered with Central Govt./MES/Railways for Civil/E.I/P.H works, with definite proof from the appropriate authority.
Portal enrolment with the bidder's own Digital Signature Certificate is mandatory.
Contractors not registered with Government of Odisha may enrol and bid online but must subsequently register with the appropriate Odisha registering authority before award, as per State norms.
NIT also lists C&B class for costs more than Rs.20.00 lakhs and less than Rs.40.00 lakhs, and D&C class for costs less than Rs.20.00 lakhs — not applicable to this package once Annexure class B and cost Rs.75.64 lakh are applied.

Mandatory qualification documents

Clause 109 requires specific scanned documents for qualification; absence/incorrect particulars can render the bid non-responsive or lead to summary rejection.

Required: valid Contractor Registration Certificate, PAN Card and GSTIN with the technical bid.
Required: No Relation Certificate (referred as Schedule-A), Schedule-E litigation/debarment information, Schedule-F affidavit (authentication of tender documents / no abandonment), and mandatory CDMS data update copy (OM file no.07556900142018-12934/W dated-23.08.2018).
Required: bidder mobile No., e-mail ID and Bidder Contact Address proforma.
Required: evidence of ownership (owned or leased) of principal machineries/equipments, details in Schedule-C proforma (proforma is referenced but not printed in the uploaded DTCN).
Joint ventures: Bids from joint ventures are not acceptable.
Clause 3.3 also lists Profit & Loss statement, list of similar nature of works, work in hand and list of machineries among technical-bid contents generally.
Attested copies of valid contractor registration and PAN must accompany the bid or it will be rejected; GST registration is stated as mandatory for the successful bidder before drawal of agreement (see also contradictions on GST timing).

Debarment, blacklisting and related-party bars

Bidders must not be debarred/blacklisted and must certify non-relationship with specified PWD/Works Department officers; false statements trigger cancellation, forfeiture and blacklisting.

Schedule-E requires disclosure of current litigation, debarment/expulsion in last 5 years, and failure to perform any contract in India in last 5 years; incorrect/concealed information leads to summary rejection.
Schedule-F affidavit certifies no abandonment/rescission of road/bridge/irrigation/building or other project works in India during the last five years.
No-relationship certificate: not related to any officer of PWD of rank Assistant Engineer & above, or Works Department officer of rank Assistant/Under Secretary & above; non-submission makes tender liable for rejection; if later false, contract rescinded with EMD & security forfeiture and liability for loss.
If L1 does not turn up for agreement: debarred from bidding for three years and blacklisting action; related consortium/JV/firm also barred for three years; L2 may be called at L1 rate.
Portal registration is blocked if registration is cancelled/suspended or bidder is blacklisted; also for failure to furnish original technical documents, backing out during validity, failure to execute agreement, or false information (blacklisting per Appendix-XXXIV of OPWD Code Vol-II; portal block minimum 180 days).

Experience / turnover thresholds

No numeric minimum similar-work value, annual turnover or net-worth threshold is stated beyond contractor class registration and the listed qualification documents.

Technical bid content generally includes list of similar nature of works, works in hand and profit & loss statement, and clause 63/98 requires a works-in-hand list in the prescribed proforma.
No quantified past-performance formula (e.g. 40% of estimated cost) is printed in these documents.

Scope of work

What is being procured: the work, supplies or services, deliverables and quantities, locations, phases, completion or delivery timelines, applicable standards, and notable exclusions.

Work title, location and form of contract

Construction of R.I. Office-cum-Residence Building at Bijepur, District Kalahandi, as a percentage-rate building works contract under double-cover e-procurement.

Invited by Superintending Engineer, Rural Works Division, Bhawanipatna on behalf of Government of Odisha.
Bid ID / Contract No.: SERWBPT/ONLINE-05/2026-27 (NIT also SERWBPT-online-05/2026-27).
Package is Sl. No.5 in multi-work Annexure-A of the same bid identification.

Deliverables, quantities and BOQ coverage

BOQ covers multi-floor civil building works plus finishing, external development, electrical and water-supply/sanitary items; estimated BOQ total Rs.75,64,487.747.

Civil items include earthwork, sand filling, PCC, fly-ash brick masonry, RCC (foundation/column/beam/slab), HYSD reinforcement, roof grading, plaster, flooring/tiles, doors/windows (including UPVC/FRP), putty/painting, iron trusses and polycarbonate sheet roofing, interlocking pavers and embankment.
Services include recessed electrical wiring and related fittings, and water-supply items such as submersible pump, starter, cabling, HDPE piping and drain works.
Bidder must quote only percentage excess/less on the published BOQ without altering items; multiple BOQ submission cancels the bid.

Completion period and programme

Time for completion is 6 months; successful bidder must submit a work programme and financial milestones before acceptance, with LD for missed milestones.

Early completion incentive (if eligible) ranges from 1% to 10% of contract value on a graduated scale based on how much earlier than the contract period the work finishes.
Bidders are expected to inspect the site and quarries before quoting; later complaints on material availability are not entertained.

Applicable standards and defect liability

Civil works must conform to listed IS codes (and IRC/MOST for approach road); defects appearing within 12 months of completion must be made good by the contractor at own cost.

Schedule-A lists IS conformity for concrete, foundations, masonry, plaster, anti-termite, DPC, painting, flooring, etc.
Materials specifications include cement, steel, aggregates, water, binding wire, rainwater pipe, steel door/window frames, etc.
Concrete below 85% of required strength (by tests) shall not be accepted; testing costs are borne by the contractor.
Security retention aligns with one-year defect rectification for building works.

Required documents & submission

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.

Submission mode and portal

Bids are submitted online only on the Odisha e-procurement portal in double-cover (Technical + Financial) format; no offline/physical bid box submission is provided.

Portal cited as www.tendersorissa.gov.in / www.tendersodisha.gov.in / https://tendersodisha.gov.in (spelling varies across pages).
Technical Bid location: scanned eligibility/qualification PDFs; Financial Bid location: protected BOQ (.xls) with percentage only.
Addenda/corrigenda/cancellation, if any, are published on the portal/notice board and form part of the bidding documents.

Digital signature and online signing

Bidder must enrol with own DSC of Class II or Class III from a registered CA and digitally sign all uploaded statements/documents/certificates.

DSC examples cited: n-Code, Sify, TCS, MTNL etc.
Portal registration is authenticated by State Procurement Cell after verification of PAN and RC/GSTIN.
Submission uses DSC of appropriate class; each online bidder owns correctness/authenticity as per IT Act 2000.

Physical originals after evaluation

Only the successful lowest bidder must produce originals of all scanned documents after price-bid opening; failure triggers 3-year debarment and blacklisting, with L2 consideration at L1 rate.

One clause says within 5 days of opening of the tender (price bid); eligibility clause 109.A says within 7 days of opening of price bid.
Officer inviting bid may also seek legible/original copies during technical evaluation; failure can forfeit bid security.
No separate sealed physical tender submission deadline is prescribed for all bidders.

Corrigendum analysis

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 / addendum in the document set

The downloaded tender folder contains only the NIT (Tendernotice_1.pdf), DTCN (Tendernotice_2.pdf) and BOQ; no corrigendum, addendum or pre-bid reply document is present.

Therefore the dates, amounts and conditions in the NIT/DTCN/BOQ stand as originally published, subject only to internal conflicts noted under contradictions.
DTCN states any future addendum/corrigendum/cancellation would be seen on the e-procurement website and form part of the bidding documents.

Values that finally apply

Final applicable key values remain those in the original NIT/Annexure-A/BOQ: bid window 05.08.2026 10:00 AM–24.08.2026 5:00 PM; clarification till 24.08.2026 5:00 PM; technical opening 25.08.2026 11:00 AM; estimated cost Rs.75.64 lakh; EMD Rs.75,640; paper cost Rs.10,000; class B; completion 6 months; bid validity 90 days/3 months.

No amended superseding values exist in this package.

Contradictions

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.

L1 original-document production deadline: 5 days vs 7 days

Clause 2.2 requires L1 originals within 5 days of price-bid opening, while eligibility clause 109.A requires them within 7 days — both cannot be operated literally.

Bidder action: be ready to produce originals within the shorter 5-day timeline unless the authority clarifies otherwise.
Failure consequences (debar 3 years / blacklist / L2 negotiation) are stated with the 5-day clause.

Portal URL spelling differs across documents

Submission/payment pages alternately cite www.tendersorissa.gov.in and www.tendersodisha.gov.in / https://tendersodisha.gov.in.

Electronic receipt procedure uses https://tendersodisha.gov.in; NIT mode-of-submission uses www.tendersorissa.gov.in.
Practical impact: use the live State e-procurement portal linked from the tender publication and confirm fee/EMD payment gateway before bid close.

GST document timing: with technical bid vs only before agreement

Clause 109 requires GSTIN with the technical bid, while DTCN additional condition cl.1 says GST registration is mandatory for the successful bidder before agreement.

Clause 19 also contemplates GST certificates with the tender.
Safer reading: upload GSTIN in technical bid; successful bidder must in any event hold GST registration before agreement.

Bid validity wording: ninety days vs 3 months

NIT cl.9 fixes validity at ninety days from last receipt date; DTCN cl.12 says 3 months from date of receipt of tenders.

Substantively aligned (≈90 days) but not identical drafting; both allow extension by mutual agreement.
For risk control, hold the bid firm for the full 90-day/3-month window from 24.08.2026.

Schedule-A label mismatch for No Relation Certificate

Eligibility requires 'No Relation Certificate in Schedule-A', but printed Schedule-A is an 'ITEM OF WORK' IS-spec list; the No Relationship certificate appears immediately after it without a Schedule-A heading.

Also, cl.109.B.III refers to 'Bank guarantee in Schedule-F' while printed Schedule-F is only an Affidavit form.
Schedule-C machinery proforma is required by text but not attached in the PDF.

Estimated cost presentation: Annexure lakhs vs BOQ paise total

Annexure-A states approx. estimated cost Rs.75.64 lakhs while BOQ totals Rs.75,64,487.747.

Values are consistent at lakh-rounding level; percentage quotes should be against the portal BOQ total.
EMD is fixed at Rs.75,640 (@1% of 75.64 lakh).

Pre-bid queries

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 L1 original-document deadline

Ask TIA to confirm whether L1 must produce originals within 5 days (cl.2.2) or 7 days (cl.109.A) of price-bid opening.

Material to staffing/logistics and debarment risk if originals are delayed.

Missing Schedule-C and mandatory plant list

Request the missing Schedule-C proforma and the minimum principal machinery/equipment (owned/leased) that must be evidenced for this building package.

Clause 109 makes machinery evidence mandatory, but no schedule or capacity thresholds are printed.

APS computation under OM No-173/W dated-03.01.2026

Seek the full OM / slab method for Additional Performance Security, because NIT cites the OM while DTCN only states differential = estimated cost minus quoted amount.

Critical for pricing strategy if quoting below estimate; default is bid cancellation, security forfeiture and blacklisting.

Exact liquidated-damage rates for delay / missed milestones

Ask for the operable LD percentage/schedule for failure to achieve financial milestones or delayed completion, beyond the statement that LD will be imposed and the 20% leftover-work penalty on rescission.

P1 agreement is incorporated by reference but the delay-LD table is not set out in the DTCN extracts provided.

Whether P&L / similar-work list are pass-fail without thresholds

Clarify if Profit & Loss statement and list of similar works are evaluated against any minimum criteria, or only required as disclosure documents.

Clause 3.3 lists them, but clause 109 qualification bullets do not quantify experience/turnover.

Risks

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.

Tight 6-month completion with milestone LD

Full RI office-cum-residence building (civil + electrical + PH) must finish in 6 months; failure to achieve financial milestones attracts liquidated damages, and early-completion incentive is the only upside offset.

Price escalation for materials/labour is generally unavailable because original completion period is under 18 months.
No claims for quarry/material unavailability after bid; contractor bears site and procurement risk.

Severe default sanctions around bid security and agreement

False documents, failure to produce originals, backing out during validity, or not signing agreement can forfeit EMD/security, block portal registration (≥180 days), debar for 3 years and trigger blacklisting.

L1 no-show for agreement also opens L2 negotiation at L1 rate or cancellation.
APS default within 7 days likewise cancels bid, forfeits security and starts blacklisting.

One-sided payment and penalty economics

No interest on delayed departmental dues; under-quoted items have differentials withheld; rescission realises 20% of leftover work as penalty; departmental material loss can be recovered at 5 times cost.

Contractor bears royalties, taxes (other than reimbursable GST as stated), temporary works, water, lighting, labour camp and testing costs.
Labour cess 1% and IT deductions reduce cash flow; securities remain locked for one year after completion.

Below-estimate bidding cash lock-up (APS + ISD)

Aggressive % below estimate requires full differential APS in DD/TDR within 7 days plus ISD to bring total security with EMD to 2%, creating immediate working-capital strain.

Additional withholdings can apply for grossly under-quoted individual items until those items are completed.
OCC enjoys up to 3% price preference, affecting competitive positioning of private bidders.

Quality/rejection and force-majeure style exclusions

Substandard concrete (<85% strength) is rejected; contractor must make good defects for 12 months and holds Government harmless for many injury/damage claims; earthquake/flood/cyclone/epidemic losses are contractor's cost.

Trial borings/foundation depths are provisional; contractor must conduct own investigation at own cost.
Jurisdiction confined to Odisha courts only.
