The PDFs do not print calendar values for these events; Appendix A directs bidders to the portal critical-date sheet. Verify the live tender ID before submission.
90 days from the end date of bid submission.
Tender value or estimated cost, EMD/bid security (amount, acceptable forms, validity), tender document fees, performance security, and key payment terms.
Rs. 1365.00 Lakhs (at par market); the NIT says this is only a rough guide and not a guarantee.
Rs. 10,07,500.00. MES registered contractors with the applicable standing security arrangement are exempt; otherwise upload the scan and deliver the original. No EMD validity or claim period is specified in the supplied PDFs.
Rs. 3,000 by DD/Banker’s cheque from a Scheduled/Nationalized bank in favour of GE (South), Delhi Cantt-10, payable at Delhi; upload the copy and submit the original offline.
5% of contract amount, due within 28 days after notification/acceptance. Permitted forms stated in the instructions are Bank Guarantee, FDR or Insurance Surety Bond. It must remain valid through the 24-month defects-liability period plus at least 60 days, and longer if the final bill remains unpaid.
The quoted amount for Schedule A Part-I is apportioned 5% to design/engineering/surveys and 95% to construction/installation. Contractor-prepared stage-wise yardsticks require approval; until approval, payment may be claimed on measurement using SSR Part-II (2020) at 0% CP. Interim stage-payment statements are submitted in triplicate every 15 days.
Waterproofing carries a 10-year guarantee backed by 0.25% of the assessed building cost retained from the final bill (or FDR), over and above performance security. Paint work requires a 5-year manufacturer guarantee and an FDR equal to 2% of painting-work value for five years.
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.
Must be enlisted in Class S, category a(i), with no adverse remarks in Work Load Return or a similar report. One-class-below bidders are considered only under the conditional rules in Notes 1-2, including residual-work and upgradation tests.
Must satisfy MES Class S/category a(i) enlistment criteria for completed works, annual turnover, bank solvency, working capital and all other Para 1.4/1.5 requirements of Section I, MES Manual on Contracts 2020. Exact monetary/experience thresholds are not reproduced in this tender set.
No adverse WLR/similar report (where already working in MES), no misleading or false bid information, and no current suspension/debarment/blacklisting by the listed public authorities as of bid-submission end.
Foreign firms are ineligible. Indian firms with foreign-national directors, Indians staying abroad, or directors who acquired foreign citizenship require security clearance.
Only one bid per firm is allowed; close relations having business dealings cannot bid separately. The supplied tender does not state a consortium/JV bidding permission, member cap or equity rule.
The contractor must provide the specified in-house design team or use a consultancy firm with similar-project experience and the same minimum staffing: 1 architect (COA registered, 5 years), 1 structural engineer (10 years), 1 civil engineer (5 years), 2 civil/QS engineers (8 years), and 1 MEP expert (8 years).
Must own or have assured access by hire/lease/purchase/MoU/commercial means to the Appendix A equipment fleet; equipment must be in good working condition and no more than seven years old.
What is being procured: the work, supplies or services, deliverables and quantities, locations, phases, completion or delivery timelines, applicable standards, and notable exclusions.
Integrated design, engineering, construction, testing and commissioning of the Foundation Stage Children School at Shankar Vihar, Delhi Cantt-10, including a complete functional and habitable handover.
Children’s School G+1 with mumty/water tank and structural provision for expansion to G+3; open parking for 4 cars, 30 scooters and 20 cycles; pump house with store and toilet; sentry post; canteen; and water-retaining structures.
Detailed structural/MEP/service/GFC drawings, 3-minute 3D walkthrough, detailed specifications, estimates and service BOQs, payment yardsticks, topographic and soil investigations, six final approved drawing sets, as-builts, route plans, manuals and warranties. Designs must comply with NBC-2016, latest BIS codes and super ECBC norms, with structural and MEP proof-check/vetting by IIT/NIT.
Includes site clearance/development, excavation and off-defence-land disposal, grading/filling, roads/paths/culverts, internal and external electrical supply, water supply, sewage disposal, area drainage, gates/fencing/walls, rainwater harvesting and firefighting; all external services must be connected to existing departmental sources.
Complete all Schedule A work within 24 months from site handover stated in Work Order No.1. Key milestones: surveys/design within 2 months; estimates/yardsticks within 3 months; building RCC through roof/mumty by 20 months; all E/M and B/R services by 22 months; final completion/handover by 24 months.
No demolition is required according to the site-context clause, although a conflicting general scope clause mentions demolition. MES supplies no materials, water, tools/plant or transport; the contractor must make its own arrangements.
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.
Single-stage, two-cover e-tender on defproc.gov.in: Cover 1 is the technical/application packet with PDF scans; Cover 2 is the quoted BOQ/Schedule A in the original Excel template. Physical bids, email and fax bids are not accepted.
Register with a Class II/III DSC issued by an authorised certifying authority. The bid must be digitally signed using a valid DSC; the uploader must have fresh, constitution-compliant authority binding the bidder in all contract matters including arbitration.
Unenlisted bidders must submit hard copies of all Cover-1 documents listed in Appendix A clause 5.1 within five days of opening of Cover 1. Original tender-fee/EMD instruments and the original page-signed Integrity Pact go to Chief Engineer Delhi Zone; Appendix A also requires the fee/EMD originals within five days of bid-submission end.
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.
The site-specific clause says no existing structure requires demolition, but the general brief scope includes demolition of existing buildings. Both are in the same Scope document and no corrigendum resolves the conflict; obtain a written ruling before pricing. The more site-specific clause 1.2.1 is the stronger reading pending clarification.
Scope clause 1.6.2 requires a 3 m × 3 m grid, while Annexure I clause 3.1 requires 5 m × 5 m. The contract order-of-precedence does not resolve two provisions within the same Scope document; use the more stringent 3 m × 3 m basis unless MES clarifies otherwise.
Instruction 3.1 names eprocuremes.gov.in, while the immediately following instruction and Appendix A name defproc.gov.in. The repeated tender-specific address defproc.gov.in should be used, but bidders should verify the live tender ID.
The index says the GCC, errata/amendments and minimum fair wages are not attached and must be inspected, while the GCC acknowledgement says they form part of the tender and are in the bidder’s possession. The contract incorporates them, but this folder does not provide the operative full text; obtain the referenced edition before bidding.
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 upload the departmental soil investigation report/SBC and document “8.8 Met data” referenced by the Scope. The contractor bears verification and unforeseen-ground risk, so missing baseline data materially affects foundation design and price.
Confirm whether any demolition is included and whether the contour survey grid is 3 m × 3 m or 5 m × 5 m; both directly affect quantity, programme and lump-sum price.
Please issue the exact completed-work, average-turnover, solvency and working-capital thresholds applicable under MES Manual on Contracts 2020, since the tender makes them pass/fail but does not reproduce their values.
Please confirm one calendar deadline for original fee, EMD and Integrity Pact, reconciling “within five days of bid-submission end,” “within five days of technical-bid opening,” and “before opening of BOQ.”
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.
The contractor is deemed to know all risks and accept total responsibility for all difficulties and costs; contract price is not adjusted for unforeseen difficulties. Site/bidding-data inadequacy also gives no right to compensation, damages, time extension or lost profit.
Contractor warrants suitability, adequacy, integrity, durability and practicality of design and must rectify inadequacy or unsuitability at its own cost; departmental drawing review does not shift this responsibility.
Five milestones run from 2 to 24 months. Slippage withholds up to 4.00% of Schedule A Part-I; overall delay invokes compensation under GCC Condition 50. The full GCC—and therefore the exact compensation rate/cap—is not attached in this folder.
Contractor pays statutory fees, obtains mandatory approvals, arranges water/materials and bears restoration of damaged services. Ten-metre-high perimeter barricading must be maintained throughout at no extra payment.
Items required by design/DBR/drawings but not listed must still be supplied without extra cost; service quantities/alignments may vary without claim, and service upgrades/quantity changes attract no deviation.
Defects liability is 24 months; waterproofing is guaranteed for 10 years with a separate 0.25% retention/FDR, and painting for five years with a 2% FDR. Performance security continues through DLP plus 60 days and potentially until final-bill payment.
