All important dates as they stand after corrigenda: publication, pre-bid/clarification deadline, bid submission deadline, bid opening, and bid validity period.
13-07-2026. The tender documents do not state a separate publication timestamp.
03-08-2026 16:00:00.
03-08-2026 16:30:00.
No pre-bid meeting or pre-bid/representation deadline is stated. During technical evaluation, the allowed response time for technical clarifications is 2 days.
180 days from the bid end date.
Tender value or estimated cost, EMD/bid security (amount, acceptable forms, validity), tender document fees, performance security, and key payment terms.
No EMD is required; therefore no instrument form or validity applies.
No ePBG is required.
No tender/bid participation fee is stated; the bid expressly says an ATC asking for one would make the bid/resultant contract null and void.
For goods, 100% payment is released within ten (10) days after issue of CRAC and online submission of bills. Payment is not made for rejected goods.
Offer prices are all-inclusive, and delivery is Free Delivery at Site including loading/unloading; installation/commissioning costs, where in scope, must also be included.
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.
Minimum average annual bidder turnover is 3 Lakh(s) for three years, evidenced by certified audited balance sheets or a CA/Cost Accountant certificate. For entities under three years old, completed financial years after incorporation are used.
Minimum average annual OEM turnover is 6 Lakh(s) over the last three years, with certified audited balance sheets or CA/Cost Accountant certificate; the completed-year rule applies to OEMs under three years old.
Bidder or offered-product OEM must have regularly manufactured and supplied same/similar category products to a Central/State Government organisation or PSU for 2 financial years before bid opening, supported by contracts and delivery-acceptance certificates such as CRAC.
The bid table describes partial relaxation to 1 year for both MSEs and DPIIT startups; eligible claimants must upload supporting proof. Page 3 also uses broader wording that they are relaxed from the experience criterion, creating an ambiguity recorded under contradictions.
Bidder or OEM must have supplied same/similar category products equal to 10% of bid quantity in at least one of the last three financial years to a Central/State Government organisation or PSU, evidenced by relevant contracts.
Only Class-I and Class-II local suppliers may participate. Minimum local content is 50% for Class-I and 20% for Class-II. An OEM local-content certificate and value-addition locations are required to claim preference.
A bid-specific OEM Authorization Letter and MAF for all quoted items are mandatory; the model must appear on the OEM website and online warranty verification must be available. Missing authorization/MAF or website proof causes rejection.
UPS requires IS 16242 (Part 1):2014, an IEC 62040-3 type test report with dry/damp/cold testing from a NABL-approved lab not older than three years, and an OEM-owned repair/rectification service centre in Uttar Pradesh. ATC additionally calls for IS 9000/latest environmental testing, performance report, BIS certification and lab test report.
By participating, the seller undertakes that it is not presently debarred under Rule 151 of GFR 2017. A bidder from a country sharing a land border with India—and any bidder with specified ToT from such an entity—is eligible only if registered with the Competent Authority.
What is being procured: the work, supplies or services, deliverables and quantities, locations, phases, completion or delivery timelines, applicable standards, and notable exclusions.
Supply 7 units of the combined desktop-computer package with 1 KVA UPS to Meerut. The bid heading calls for i5 14th Gen/16 GB/512 GB/DOS/21-inch display, but the attached technical specification calls for i7 14th Gen and a 24-inch monitor; this unresolved conflict is recorded under contradictions.
Attached specification lists Pro Tower G9; Intel Core i7 14th Generation; 16 GB DDR5; 512 GB PCIe NVMe SSD; FreeDOS; integrated graphics; TPM 2.0/BIOS security; Gigabit LAN; OEM USB wired keyboard/mouse; and OEM 24-inch Full HD monitor.
Each package includes a 1000VA/600W line-interactive UPS, 230 VAC single-phase input/output, two inbuilt 12V 7Ah SMF batteries, four 6A Indian sockets, and onsite warranty of 2 years on UPS and battery.
Delivery to the consignee at Meerut is required within 15 days. Delivery is free at site including loading/unloading; any required installation/commissioning is included in price.
Buyer may increase or decrease ordered quantity by up to 25% at award and may increase contracted quantity by up to 25% during the contract at contracted rates; additional delivery time is calculated under the option clause.
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 on GeM as a Two Packet Bid. Keep all price elements in the financial bid only; mentioning price in the technical bid makes the offer non-responsive.
GeM uses e-signing for platform documents; the GTC states that Aadhaar-based e-sign is at par with a digital signature under the Information Technology Act Amendment 2008. No separate DSC class is specified.
ATC asks for the original ink-signed UPS OEM MAF within 3 days of bid closing, but gives no recipient/address. The bid disclaimer says mandating physical documents as a pre-requisite to qualify makes the bid/resultant contract null and void; obtain written clarification before relying on this requirement.
OEM authorization/MAF must be on OEM letterhead and duly signed; the malicious-code certificate must be self-attested; the UPS compliance sheet must be duly signed on OEM letterhead with authorized-person contact details; EFT mandate must be bank-certified.
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.
Bid item/title requires i5 14th Gen with 21-inch display, while the attached technical specification requires Intel Core i7 14th Generation and OEM 24-inch Full HD monitor. No corrigendum resolves this; the buyer-specific detailed specification would ordinarily be more specific, but the bid must be clarified before pricing.
Technical specification names “Digital Plus V” UPS and “Pro Tower G9” desktop models, but the bid disclaimer says mandating a specific brand/make/model (except Single Bid/PAC) makes the bid/resultant contract null and void. This is a competitive two-packet bid, not identified as PAC; the disclaimer therefore prevails over any brand/model lock-in, while performance specifications remain relevant.
UPS ATC mandates an ink-signed MAF original within 3 days after bid closing, while the bid disclaimer states that mandating physical documents as a pre-requisite to qualify makes the bid/resultant contract null and void. The disclaimer prevails against treating physical submission as a qualification precondition; however, because ATC gives no receiving address, obtain buyer confirmation.
The bid table limits MSE and startup experience relaxation to 1 year, while page 3 says such bidders “shall be relaxed from” the experience criterion without stating the residual one-year requirement. The specific numeric table value of 1 year should prevail, but bidder should seek confirmation.
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 whether bids must offer i5/21-inch as stated in the bid item or i7/24-inch as stated in the attached specification, and issue an amendment aligning the portal category, technical evaluation and price comparison.
Confirm that equivalent/superior products are accepted and that “Digital Plus V”, “Pro Tower G9”, and “1000VA Plus V” are descriptive only; otherwise identify the valid PAC/single-bid basis, because the bid disclaimer invalidates specific model mandates.
Confirm whether the UPS MAF original is actually required for qualification. If yes, state the recipient, complete delivery address, accepted delivery method, and exact deadline; reconcile this with the disclaimer prohibiting physical documents as a qualification prerequisite.
Specify whether IS 9000 environmental report, IS 16242 certification, IEC 62040-3 dry/damp/cold type test, the generic “Lab Test Report,” BIS certificate, and “Performance report – 1000VA Plus V” are all cumulative; define issuing laboratory/accreditation, test age and acceptable equivalent standards for each.
Provide the unmasked consignee/installation address in Meerut for freight, onsite warranty and 15-day delivery planning, and separately identify any address for original MAF receipt.
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.
Seven complete desktop-plus-UPS packages must be delivered in Meerut within 15 days. Delivery time is of the essence; the 25% option clause may also increase quantity.
Delay attracts LD at 0.5% of delayed-quantity contract value per week or part, normally capped at 5% of total contract value and 10% for inordinate delay; delay over 25% of completion period is inordinate. Buyer may cancel the unsupplied portion after delivery expiry and pursue rating/debarment action.
Consignee may inspect and reject within 10 days of receipt. No payment is due for rejected goods; seller must remove them within 10 days or bear ground rent/warehousing, and buyer may dispose of them at seller risk and cost.
UPS and batteries carry 2-year onsite warranty, with an OEM-owned repair/rectification service centre in Uttar Pradesh. GTC requires defective goods to be rectified/replaced within 7 days and spare support for at least three years after warranty expiry unless otherwise specified.
Unresolved i5/21-inch versus i7/24-inch and named-model conflicts create a high technical-rejection and mispricing risk. The physical-original MAF requirement is also inconsistent with the bid disclaimer and lacks a receiving address.
Missing any bid/ATC/corrigendum document triggers rejection without correspondence. False or missing information, inferior/refurbished/counterfeit supply, failure to execute, or withdrawal during validity can lead to suspension/debarment/removal from GeM.
