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 filter requires minimum average annual bidder turnover of 269 Lakh(s) for 3 years, while Buyer ATC requires INR 10 Crores in IT/ITES over last three FYs.
Standard GeM experience is 3 years same/similar category supply, but ATC adds ≥10 years operations, 3 IT/ITES orders of min 4 Cr in 5 FY, and one Northeast IT government project in 5 FY.
Buyer ATC sets warranty of the supplied products as 1 year from final acceptance/installation, but technical specification for CDR/IPDR/Tower Dump Analysis Tool requires 03 Years warranty; drone tool tech spec states 01 Year.
Buyer ATC requires hardcopy EMD delivery within 5 days of Bid End date / Bid Opening date, while GeM GTC requires hard copy within 5 working days of bid opening.
Technical specifications repeatedly name MD-*/i9_CDR feature sets and HPE cloud service, while the bid disclaimer states mandating procurement of specific Brand/Make/Model renders bid/contract null and void except PAC/single bid cases.
Bid ATC requires ISO 9001; ATC document specifies ISO 9001:2008 / ISO 9001:2015.
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 ATC Ser No. 2 (INR 10 Cr average IT/ITES turnover for 3 FYs) overrides the GeM filter of 269 Lakh, and whether MSE/Startup turnover relaxation still applies against the ATC figure.
Please publish the numeric Estimated Bid Value used for EMD guidance and for Buyer ATC 42 thresholds (35%/20%/15%), since the bid text refers to an estimated value but no figure is printed in the bid fields.
Please reconcile Buyer ATC 1-year warranty with tech-spec 3-year warranty for CDR/IPDR tool and 1-year for drone tool, and confirm required OEM support/ePBG cover period for each item including dashboard and server.
Technical specs cite MD-DRONE/MD-VIDEO AI/i9_CDR/HPE features — confirm whether functionally equivalent products of other OEMs are acceptable if compliance matrix is met, given GeM disclaimer against brand mandating.
Confirm whether Integrated Digital Dashboard must be custom-developed by the bidder and fully integrate offline/online with the three analysis tools and management server, including data formats, licences, and UAT criteria.
Request site prerequisites (rack space, power, network, air-conditioning, OS/DB licences, internet policy for cell-ID/HPE cloud updates) and whether offline-only deployment is mandatory for CAPF security environment.
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.
EMD of INR 26,93,940 plus ATC overlays (10-year existence, INR 10 Cr IT/ITES turnover, 3 x 4 Cr orders, Northeast experience, OEM 1800 Lakh turnover, positive net worth) create a high bid-cost and disqualification risk.
Delivery LD under GeM GTC is 0.5% of contract value of delayed quantity per week (cap 5%, or 10% for inordinate delay >25% of completion period). Warranty delay penalty is 0.5% of unit price per week, cumulative cap 10% of total contract value, then risk-purchase and PBG forfeiture.
Buyer may terminate for broad seller defaults including apparent inability to deliver; faulty hard disks are not returned under buyer security policy, increasing residual data-media cost and liability.
Standard GeM goods payment is post-CRAC (after supply/install acceptance), while 3% ePBG for 18 months and possible service-centre evidence gate payment release.
Specs appear written around particular commercial forensic suites and HPE-oriented server management, plus a custom integrated dashboard — high technical-compliance and integration risk if offering alternatives or multi-OEM stack.
The inviting authority and relevant contacts: office, person, designation, address, phone and email — and which address receives physical submissions, if any.
