Complete the work within 24 months from LOA; maintain for 48 months; execute to Railway GCC, special conditions, drawings and technical specifications.
Limited working space and no motorable approach to most sites; contractor bears approach roads, permissions, traffic diversions and idle-time risk.
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.
Bids only through e-tendering on www.ireps.gov.in; two-packet system; no manual offers.
If Bid Security is by Bank Guarantee, original BG must be delivered in person before the closing date excluding the last bid-submission date.
Tender must be signed by legally competent persons; POA for agents must be stamped and notarised/authenticated by Magistrate, else summary rejection.
Documents (a)–(h) in Special Instructions must accompany the online bid; missing documents cause summary rejection with no post-tender communication.

No corrigendum/addendum files are present; original NIT and tender document values apply as published.
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.
GCC Para 5(2) requires BG valid 90 days beyond bid validity, while Para 5(3)(I)(iv) requires 120 days beyond tender validity.
NIT name includes Track work and associated works; cover/scope headings often omit that phrase, yet scope item 04 and BOQ include track linking.
Eligibility similar work is defined only as Civil Engineering work involving building construction, while the tender is primarily earthwork, bridges, track and associated works.
Special Conditions require at least two graduate Civil engineers with 3+ years bridge construction experience, while Additional Special Conditions require at least one graduate Civil engineer with 3+ years building/sheds experience.
Acceptance of Tender page prints Open e Tender No. DyCE-C-SUR-01-2026 instead of DYCE-C-SUR-HG-01-2026.
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 Railway to confirm if credentials must be building-construction works only, or whether earthwork/bridge/track civil works also qualify given the actual scope.
Seek written confirmation whether BG must be valid for 90 or 120 days beyond the 90-day offer validity.
Confirm the nominated official and whether 'before closing date excluding last date' means latest by 06/09/2026 working hours.
Clarify whether two bridge-experienced graduate engineers, one building-experienced engineer, or both requirements apply simultaneously, and the applicable monthly penalty.
Seek clarity on extent of contractor design liability, proof-checking turnaround, and whether Railway delays in design approval entitle time extension without LD given the no-claim clauses.
Request status of land availability and any Railway facilitation for temporary approach roads through private/government/forest land, since cost and delay risk are fully on contractor.
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.
Contractor-delay extensions under Clause 17B attract LD up to a maximum of 5% of contract value, on a stepped weekly scale.
Railway disclaims liability for drawing delays, late Railway materials, permissions delays, idle labour/machinery and business loss.
No motorable approaches to most sites, limited stacking space, work near railway operations/track linking, and need to coordinate with other agencies.
Combined Bid Security, 5% PG, 5% SD (with 6% bill recovery) and possible additional PG for below-rate bids create significant cash/BG exposure.
Failure to deploy prescribed engineers attracts Rs.40,000 per month; exaggerated/false measurements ≥5% of claimed gross bill trigger LD/actions.
For this >Rs.50 lakh contract, variation making present contractor more than 5% costlier than a new L-1 on revised quantities can vitiate the contract and lead to fresh tendering or renegotiation of extra quantities.
Mandatory document set is extensive; missing constitution/POA/Annexure-V/bid capacity/BG original etc. leads to summary rejection with no post-tender cure.
The inviting authority and relevant contacts: office, person, designation, address, phone and email — and which address receives physical submissions, if any.
