All important dates as they stand after corrigenda: publication, pre-bid/clarification deadline, bid submission deadline, bid opening, and bid validity period.
16-07-2026. No corrigendum is listed or present in the tender folder.
Bid submission closes on 06-08-2026 at 14:00:00; bid opening is 06-08-2026 at 14:30:00. No pre-bid meeting or pre-bid/clarification deadline is specified; the only clarification period stated is 3 days during technical evaluation.
120 days from the bid end date.
If fewer than 2 bids are received, the portal may auto-extend the deadline once by 7 days.
Tender value or estimated cost, EMD/bid security (amount, acceptable forms, validity), tender document fees, performance security, and key payment terms.
No tender/estimated value is printed in the available documents. No tender document fee is stated; the GeM bid disclaimer says asking for any tender or bid-participation fee is impermissible.
Not required; therefore no amount, instrument form or validity applies to this bid.
ePBG is not required.
100% payment is due within 30 days after issue of CRAC and online submission of bills. The bid expressly supersedes the GTC's 10-day term; the attached compliance form still says 10 days and should be treated as superseded.
Quote on FOR FACT Stores / free-delivery-at-site basis. The GeM price is all-inclusive of taxes, transport and loading/unloading; state the GST percentage. GST reimbursement is limited to actual/applicable rate, whichever is lower, capped at the quoted GST percentage.
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.
The offered goods must comply with the BoQ/detailed specifications and be supported by the requested certificates/documents. Failure to upload any certificate/document sought in the bid, ATC or any corrigendum makes the offer liable to rejection.
No numeric experience, past-performance, turnover or net-worth threshold is printed. The bid marks both MSE and Startup relaxation for years of experience/turnover as 'No', while also retaining boilerplate requiring evidence if an exemption is claimed.
Conditional preference is available only to a validated MSE manufacturer/OEM with a valid Udyam Certificate; traders/resellers are excluded. An eligible MSE within L1 + 15% may match L1 for 25% of the quantity/amount.
A bidder from a country sharing a land border with India, or any bidder having a specified technology-transfer arrangement with an entity from such a country, is eligible only with Competent Authority registration valid at bid submission and acceptance. This also captures a consortium/JV if any member falls in the covered classes.
Only one bid is permitted. Bids by affiliates, sister concerns, associated firms or related parties count as multiple bids; all such bids are rejected.
False, misleading or forged information; substandard/counterfeit supply; bid withdrawal during validity; failure to execute satisfactorily; or failure to furnish required documents can trigger suspension, debarment or removal from GeM. A false land-border declaration also triggers debarment/legal action.
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 goods in three item-wise schedules: 4 Drum Lifter Trolleys, 2 Semi Electric Pallet Stackers and 1 Manual Hydraulic Mobile Floor Crane. Evaluation and award are schedule/item-wise.
Minimum 300 kg capacity; capable of handling minimum 210-litre drums; minimum wheel diameter 8 (front) × 2 (rear); iron/steel-alloy construction.
Minimum 3-tonne capacity; electric-motor-driven movement; manual hydraulic lifting; minimum 2 m lifting height; 4 wheels.
Minimum 3-tonne capacity; manual hydraulic lifting; minimum 3 m maximum boom height; 4 wheels.
Deliver each schedule within 45 days to Udyogmandal Division Stores, Udyogamandal P.O., Kochi-683501, consignee Jithin Mohan. The specification calls the BoQ period indicative and invites the bidder's earliest period, but the bid schedules state 45 days.
Provide load-test certificates for items 2 and 3 and a material test certificate with supply. Warranty is 12 months from commissioning or 18 months from dispatch, whichever is earlier.
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 through GeM as a Two Packet Bid. Upload the requested certificates, completed compliance statement and supporting documents with the bid; reverse auction is disabled.
No DSC class, notarisation or general attestation rule is stated. The EFT mandate alone must be bank-certified. No physical original is required because EMD is not required; GeM also prohibits making physical documents a pre-qualification requirement.
Technical clarifications are allowed for 3 days during evaluation. Documents submitted as clarifications/representations will be visible to other participating bidders after login.
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 bid details require payment within 30 days and expressly supersede GTC clause 12's 10-day term, while the mandatory compliance form asks bidders to confirm 10 days. The later/more specific bid field prevails: price cash flow on 30 days and flag the form inconsistency to the buyer.
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.
The bid says MSE/Startup relaxation is not allowed and asks for exemption evidence, but prints no underlying experience, past-performance or turnover threshold. Ask the buyer to confirm that no such threshold applies, or publish the exact criterion before bid close.
Ask the buyer to amend item 4 of the Compliance Statement from 10 days to the bid-detail value of 30 days, or confirm how bidders should complete the mandatory no-blanks form without creating a qualification.
Scope says only supply, yet warranty runs from commissioning. Ask who commissions, the commissioning/acceptance protocol and the fallback warranty start if commissioning is delayed, because the 'whichever is earlier' wording can shorten effective post-acceptance cover.
The schedule states 45 delivery days, while the specification calls the BoQ period indicative and asks for the earliest period. Ask whether 45 days is a mandatory maximum or merely an indicative requirement and where the offered period must be entered.
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.
Buyer may vary bid quantity by ±25% at award and may additionally increase contracted quantity by up to 25% during the contract at the same rates. Capacity and price validity must absorb this option.
LD is 0.5% of delayed-quantity contract value per week or part, capped at 5% of total contract value; an inordinate delay (over 25% of the completion period) allows deduction up to 10%. Failure after the delivery period also allows cancellation of the unsupplied portion and possible rating downgrade/debarment.
The material test certificate must accompany supply, but the buyer's own laboratory result is the sole acceptance criterion. Rejected goods receive no payment and must be removed within 10 days, otherwise ground rent/warehousing and disposal at seller risk may follow.
The 12-month-from-commissioning or 18-month-from-dispatch, whichever-earlier, warranty is tied to commissioning even though only supply is in scope; delayed commissioning can erode usable warranty coverage.
The bid marks both arbitration and mediation clauses 'No', increasing reliance on the GTC dispute process and court remedies if a commercial dispute remains unresolved.
Any missing certificate/document requested by the bid, ATC or corrigendum can cause rejection; this is material because the bid also requires vendor-code documents and a fully completed no-blanks compliance form.
The inviting authority and relevant contacts: office, person, designation, address, phone and email — and which address receives physical submissions, if any.
