Internal conflict: ITB 3.1/4.4 and Section 2.6 allow JV for works ≥ Rs.15 Cr (max 3 partners; lead ≥50%, each other ≥25% of 4.6A criteria; joint & several liability), while ITB 3.3 says “Bidders from Joint Venture are not allowed.” Treat as unresolved — raise in pre-bid; do not assume JV is permitted.
Affidavit must confirm not blacklisted, no abandoned works, no litigation against intending department during tendering, not a PRI member. False information, poor performance, or prior unreasonably high bids can disqualify. Corrupt/fraudulent practices → rejection and ineligibility.
What is being procured: the work, supplies or services, deliverables and quantities, locations, phases, completion or delivery timelines, applicable standards, and notable exclusions.
Construction of PM Unity (Ekta) Mall at Railhead Complex, Jammu on Engineering, Procurement & Construction (EPC) percentage-rate mode for PWD(R&B) PD-II; Project Authority Industries & Commerce Department; AAA and expenditure sanction accorded.
Single-point responsibility: topo survey, soil investigation, DPR/structural/architectural/MEP design vetted by IIT/NIT/reputed institute, all statutory approvals/NOCs (incl. environmental/ECBC/EIA/IGBC as applicable), procurement, construction, testing, trial run, commissioning and handing over in 24 months from start, plus 30 days post-construction operation; DLP 3 years for civil, electrical, plumbing and mechanical.
Multi-level mall ~19,900 sqm total floor area: Basement -2 and -1 (~4500 sqm each parking/services), Ground and First (~3750 sqm each), Second and Third (~1700 sqm each), terrace for solar/OHT.
Full campus development (roads, parking, walkways, landscaping, storm/sewer, boundary, lighting, furniture, OHT) plus building MEP: HVAC, fire fighting (wet riser/sprinkler/detection/alarm), basement smoke extraction, electrical substation/DG, lifts/escalators, STP/ETP 50 KLD, fire water tank ~1.5 lakh litre, furniture/furnishings, façade, security systems (DFMD/X-ray, boom barriers), BMS integrations.
BOQ is a single percentage-rate lump item for the entire EPC mall work at Rs. 1,134,200,000 — not an item-rate measured BOQ.
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.
Online electronic submission only on www.jktenders.gov.in with valid DSC; technical and financial parts uploaded separately; no financial bid in physical form.
DSC required under IT Act-2000 from approved vendors. Affidavits/POA must be attested by 1st Class Judicial/Executive Magistrate (Notary-attested affidavits rejected). Key personnel degrees and plant proofs also Magistrate-attested. Affidavit/POA date between bid start and end.
EMD instrument original to be submitted after declaration of L1; scanned copy uploaded with technical bid. Other originals produced on LOA for verification. No general hard-copy bid envelope is required before bid due date.
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 among the tender documents; all dates, amounts and conditions stand as in the original e-NIT dated 18.08.2026, SBD Vol-I (Tendernotice_1.pdf), Vol-II (vol.pdf) and BOQ.
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.
ITB 3.1 and 4.4 plus Section 2.6 allow JV for works above Rs.15 Cr, but ITB 3.3 expressly says JV bidders are not allowed. Impact unresolved until employer clarification; high bid/no-bid risk for consortiums.
e-NIT 7 and ITB 30.1 require Performance Security of 3% of contract price within 21 days of LOA; Contract Data item 16 states 5 percent of contract price under ITB Clause 30. Bidder should price/plan for employer confirmation; e-NIT/ITB are the operative award clauses cited for LOA formation.
GCC 25.3 states LD for works other than small repairs at half percent of contract value per week (max 10%); Contract Data states 1% of initial contract price per week (max 10%).
e-NIT, Vol-II and GCC 34.1 set DLP at three years from certified completion for this work; GCC 34.3 still contains road-routine-maintenance text ending after seven years (legacy road SBD language). For this building mall, 3-year DLP is repeatedly stated as applicable.
e-NIT 6 says EMD “shall be released after declaration of L1” while also listing forfeiture events for successful bidder failures and requiring L1 to submit original EMD — release appears aimed at unsuccessful bidders; successful bidder’s EMD path is via PS/agreement compliance.
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 confirm whether JV/consortium bids are allowed despite ITB 3.3, given ITB 3.1/4.4 and Section 2.6 allow JV above Rs.15 Cr and project cost is ~Rs.113.42 Cr.
Confirm the Performance Security amount to be stated in LOA: e-NIT/ITB 3% vs Contract Data 5%.
Confirm whether delay LD is 0.5% per week (GCC 25.3) or 1% per week (Contract Data), both capped at 10%.
Does “similar work” require a single past building that included all listed electrical/mechanical components (HVAC/BMS/UPS, fire fighting, lifts/escalators, CCTV/AV, substation/DG), or is building construction with any composite E&M acceptable?
Confirm acceptable evidence for 4-star GRIHA building and ≥50 KLD STP: must the bidder be the main contractor on those projects, and can JV/specialist experience count if JV is disallowed?
Who pays and owns schedule risk for IIT/NIT design vetting and all statutory NOCs? What geotech/topo/concept drawings are employer-furnished vs contractor-developed under 24-month clock?
With a single-item percentage BOQ and rates fixed without escalation, how will scope growth from concept (~19,900 sqm) to final GFC be valued, and what is the deviation limit process for this EPC mall?
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.
Full design, IIT/NIT vetting, all NOCs and construction plus 30-day post-construction operation must fit 24 months from start; no permanent works before PSA written approval — schedule is highly compressed for ~Rs.113 Cr mall.
LD up to 10% of contract price (0.5% or 1% per week depending which clause prevails); delay to maximum LD is a fundamental breach enabling termination. Milestone cumulative progress also prescribed.
No mobilisation/secured advance; 10% retention released over 3 years after completion; PS 3% (or possibly 5%) valid through DLP+28 days; possible unbalanced-bid additional PS until completion — significant working-capital lock-in on a Rs.113 Cr job, plus affidavit commitment to invest 25% cash.
Quoted percentage is fixed for full duration, deemed to include GST and escalation; employer may delete items without claim; payment capped at contract cost unless overrun specially approved — contractor carries inflation, scope-fit and quantity risk on concept-based EPC.
Failure to extend short-term PS leads to termination, forfeiture of securities/claims and blacklisting; discrepancy between uploaded and original documents at LOA can reject the bid; hiding ongoing works rejects bid; notary affidavits rejected outright.
Need Class A, ~Rs.56.71 Cr single-year civil net turnover, similar building works at 80/50/40% of Rs.113.42 Cr with full E&M specialties, 4-star GRIHA and 50 KLD STP government experience — if JV truly barred, many capable consortia cannot combine credentials.
36-month DLP with duty to correct defects on Engineer notice; 10% retention tied to same 3-year maintenance; minimum insurance cover Rs.5 lakh per occurrence × 4 occurrences (Contract Data) — may be low relative to project scale and should be checked against actual policy needs.
The inviting authority and relevant contacts: office, person, designation, address, phone and email — and which address receives physical submissions, if any.
Chief Engineer, PWD (R&B) Jammu Zone — Employer and tender inviting authority; technical bids open in this office; Dispute Review Expert also designated as Chief Engineer PW(R&B) Jammu Zone.
Engineer is the Executive Engineer of the division named on e-NIT first page — PWD(R&B) PD-II; Engineer is Engineer-in-charge for the project. Email/telephone fields in Contract Data left blank.
Tender fee challan favours Chief Accounts Officer, PW(R&B) Department, Jammu Zone; EMD pledged to the same CAO. Physical EMD original after L1 — documents do not print a separate submission desk address beyond the CE/CAO office channel.
Industries and Commerce Department, Civil Secretariat, J&K is the Project Authority (not the bid-receiving office).
