All important dates as they stand after corrigenda: publication, pre-bid/clarification deadline, bid submission deadline, bid opening, and bid validity period.
21.07.2026.
Queries were permitted up to five days from issuance of the tender, i.e. up to 26.07.2026, by email to [email protected].
12.08.2026; the corrigendum extends the original 06.08.2026, 5:00 PM deadline but does not print a replacement time, so the portal time should be checked before upload.
No workable amended opening date is printed. The RFP still says 07.08.2026 at 12:00 PM, which is before the amended submission deadline of 12.08.2026; bidder must obtain the revised portal schedule.
To be intimated later through the e-tender portal/email to technically qualified bidders.
180 days from opening of the technical proposal; may be extended by mutual consent, with corresponding extension of bid security.
Tender value or estimated cost, EMD/bid security (amount, acceptable forms, validity), tender document fees, performance security, and key payment terms.
No tender value or estimated project cost is stated in the tender documents reviewed.
Rs. 10,000/- + GST 18% (Rs. 1,800/-) = Rs. 11,800/-, non-refundable, payable online; proof must accompany the technical bid and omission causes rejection.
INR 42,00,000/-, refundable and interest-free, payable online, valid at least 225 days from the last bid-submission date. The successful bidder receives it back only after performance security and contract signing; withdrawal, corrupt practice, failure to accept/contract/provide security, breach, or false representation can trigger forfeiture.
5% of total bid/awarded value excluding taxes, as Bank Guarantee/e-Bank Guarantee from a scheduled/commercial bank, due within 15 days of LoA; initially valid 68 months and releasable 60 days after warranty completion subject to all obligations. CAMC separately requires 5% of annual CAMC value excluding taxes, valid initially 15 months.
Quote fixed INR prices inclusive of packing, freight, insurance, unloading, 60-month warranty, installation/commissioning, civil/electrical works, training and taxes/charges; quote CAMC years 6-8 separately. Financial evaluation considers project price plus CAMC charges without tax. Necessary unlisted components are to be supplied at no extra cost.
No advance. Milestone 1: 40% of Total Order Value (Base Price), with stated 18% GST, within 30 days of invoices after inspection and delivery. Milestone 2: 40% within 30 days after complete setup. Milestone 3: remaining 20% in three equal annual instalments after each year of handholding, certification and placement outcomes. CAMC is paid annually within 30 days of tax invoice and Principal certification.
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.
Bidder must be an Indian registered company, registered partnership, JV/consortium, LLP or registered proprietorship, and must have operated in the relevant field for the past 3 years as of RFP issue.
Bidder must be the OEM or an authorised Channel/Technology Partner. OEM requires manufacturing licence; partner requires bid-specific OEM authorisation/undertaking covering regular technology/product updates and warranty support, plus OEM manufacturing licence. OEM and its partner cannot both bid; one partner cannot represent multiple OEMs for the same CoE.
Average annual turnover in FY 2022-23, 2023-24 and 2024-25 must be at least Rs. 11 Cr, supported by audited statements/CA certification. The corrigendum permits CA documentation only up to 31.03.2025 when documentation up to 31.03.2026 is unavailable, but still requires three years of documents.
Net worth must not be negative in FY 2024-25 and must not have eroded by more than 30% during the three years ending 31.03.2025; CA certificate with registration number is required.
During the last 3 financial years, same-sector equipment/machinery work orders must total Rs. 4 crore in Government organisations (single/multiple orders), OR Rs. 2 crore in Government plus Rs. 5 crore in private organisations. Work orders/contracts and completion/performance/commissioning evidence are required.
At least two qualified, experienced resource persons per CoE: Graduate Engineer with minimum 2 years industry experience, or Diploma Engineer with 3 years relevant industry experience.
Technology/channel partner or OEM must hold ISO certification. Offered machinery must have applicable ISO/ISI certification and machinery test certificates. Product-wise brochures/catalogues and technical data must demonstrate ToR compliance; supplied equipment must comply with ISO/ISI/BIS/CE or equivalent.
Bidder must not be blacklisted by any Central/State ministry, PSU or government agency, and no subsisting participation bar may exist on proposal due date. Bidder/associate must also have no qualifying contract failure, expulsion or public-contract termination in the prior 3 years.
Maximum 3 members; OEM must lead with minimum 50% participation, each other member minimum 20%. Criteria may be aggregated; members are jointly and severally liable; no post-bid change; one entity may join only one bid; subcontracting is prohibited. Break-up before award/during validity or contract can reject the bid and debar all members for at least 24 months.
Bidder must submit the prescribed declaration concerning restrictions on procurement from bidders of countries sharing a land border with India.
What is being procured: the work, supplies or services, deliverables and quantities, locations, phases, completion or delivery timelines, applicable standards, and notable exclusions.
Design and establish state-of-the-art Manufacturing Process Control and Automation CoEs on Build, Operate and Transfer mode, including supply, integration, customisation, installation, commissioning and maintenance of industrial-grade hardware and unrestricted industrial-feature software.
Four consignee institutes are listed: Govt. ITI Khariar Road (Nuapada), Govt. ITI Kotagarh, Govt. ITI Rua (Puri), and Govt. ITI Kaptipada (Mayurbhanj). The schedule lists 28 equipment lines—generally one set/no. each, plus 15 desktop computers—and says quantity may vary ±25%. It is not explicit whether the schedule is per CoE or total; bidder should clarify before pricing.
Supply sensor, electro-hydraulic/pneumatic, safety/earthing, instrumentation, panel wiring, calibration, valve, process-control, heat-exchanger, reactor, boiler, sequence/ratio, data-acquisition, communication and DCS trainers; milk-processing mini plant, Edu-KIOSK, curriculum, computers, UPS, touch panel and printer; perpetual SCADA/engineering software licences.
Selected bidder completes lab readiness, interior design, minimum 3 mm epoxy flooring, civil/electrical/plumbing works, connections from nearest panel, installation accessories, earthing, fire safety, posters, branding and digital boards. DTE&T provides rooms/space, furniture, AC, water and nearest three-phase power point.
Provide 36 months handholding; train-the-trainer one month and trainee batches three months, 20 trainees/batch, up to four batches/year; minimum two trainers per CoE; curricula at NSQF level 5/6, assessment/certification, consumables and materials, plus placement opportunities for at least 50% of successfully certified trainees within one year.
Supply within 4 months of contract; complete setup/commissioning within 6 months of agreement (also stated as 2 months after site-readiness confirmation); 60-month comprehensive warranty after commissioning; then mandatory 3-year CAMC. Contract is stated as initially 66 months from LoA.
DTE&T/third party may conduct pre-delivery and post-delivery inspection; supplier bears sample testing, raw material and consumable costs. Non-compliance with quality/specification can terminate the contract. Latest, equivalent or higher specifications are acceptable under the corrigendum.
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 online only at www.tendersodisha.gov.in in two electronic covers: Cover 1 technical and Cover 2 financial. Offline documents are not handled.
Enroll/use an e-token DSC; uploaded documents are digitally signed with the bidder’s e-token. Click Freeze Bid—unfrozen bids are incomplete/invalid—and retain the system bid summary as acknowledgement.
Tender documents and enclosures must be signed by the competent authority; proposal must be complete, indexed, page-numbered and each page signed by the authorised representative. Bid documents should be PDF (except prescribed BOQ Excel), virus-free, and technical cover must contain no price information.
The RFP says online-only and does not prescribe delivery of physical originals. References in the checklist to DD/BG scans conflict with the corrigendum’s online payment instruction.
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.
BOQ_84241.xlsm was issued as a replacement BOQ, but the supplied file is not extractable by the mandated tender extraction tool. It is superseded by Corrigendum 2 BOQRAR dated 03.08.2026; bidder should use the latest BOQ only.
Two identically worded PDFs were issued under Date and Technical Bid. They add an illuminated pushbutton-station specification to Electro-Pneumatic Demo Bench; allow panel dimensions at industrial training grade ±15%; require industrial grade and all safety provisions for the 3-Element Boiler trainer; remove DCS redundancy; permit latest equivalent/higher specifications; move bid submission from 06.08.2026 to 12.08.2026; allow CA documents through 31.03.2025 if 31.03.2026 documents are unavailable while retaining three-year evidence; and require online fee/EMD.
Latest BOQ provides four price rows: total project and CAMC years 6, 7 and 8. It states the template cannot be modified/replaced and only bidder name/values may be entered. However, the extracted worksheet also contains unrelated water-supply items after the intended columns, creating an upload/pricing risk requiring written confirmation or a clean BOQ.
Submit by 12.08.2026 (time not restated); pay Rs. 11,800 fee and Rs. 42,00,000 EMD online; use latest BOQ with project cost plus CAMC years 6-8; apply the four revised technical specifications, latest/equivalent-or-higher rule, and revised CA-document allowance. All other RFP conditions remain unchanged. Revised technical-opening date is not printed.
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.
RFP technical opening is 07.08.2026 at 12:00 PM, but corrigendum extends submission through 12.08.2026 without replacing opening date. No workable opening date can prevail from the printed documents; the revised portal schedule must be confirmed.
Annexure-I asks for scan copies of DD and BG, while the RFP operative clauses and corrigendum mandate online payment. Latest corrigendum prevails: submit both online and include online proof, not DD/BG.
Annexure-I requests ITRs for FY 2021-22, 2022-23 and 2023-24, while eligibility and technical checklist require FY 2022-23, 2023-24 and 2024-25. The specific eligibility table plus corrigendum’s CA-document rule should prevail; safest action is to upload all available years through FY 2024-25/2025-26.
Latest mandatory Excel BOQ contains intended project/CAMC rows but also unrelated sluice-valve/chamber rows. Separately, the printed FIN-1/Annexure headers refer to “Mining with Drone Survey” although the subject/body refers to this automation tender. Latest BOQ work title is correct, but authority should issue/confirm clean files because bidders are forbidden to modify the Excel template.
Clause 11 states installation/commissioning within 2 months from site-readiness confirmation, while payment Milestone 2 requires full setup within 6 months of signing. Both can operate together only if site readiness is timely; contractual precedence and relief for late site readiness are not stated.
The schedule lists four institutes and then one set/number for most equipment without saying “per institute” or “total.” The ±25% variation clause compounds the ambiguity. No prevailing value is identifiable; clarification is necessary before pricing.
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 the exact time on 12.08.2026 and the revised technical-bid opening date/time; the corrigendum changes only the date and leaves an impossible 07.08.2026 opening in the RFP.
Please reissue/confirm the latest BOQ because it contains unrelated water/sluice-valve lines but is locked against modification. Also confirm whether FIN-1 and equipment breakup should correct the erroneous “Mining with Drone Survey” header.
Confirm whether each Section 6 quantity applies at each of the four institutes or is the total quantity across all sites, and how the ±25% variation will be allocated/priced.
Confirm the exact three financial years for ITRs, audited statements, turnover and net worth after the 03.08.2026 amendment; Annexure-I, eligibility table and corrigendum refer to different cut-offs.
Confirm site-readiness dates, acceptance criteria and extension/payment relief if DTE&T-provided space, power, water, furniture or AC are late; otherwise the fixed six-month setup milestone and delay damages expose the bidder to client-caused delay.
Define training-fee/revenue ownership, minimum trainee mobilisation, placement evidence and consequences where DTE&T/committee controls admissions and fee fixing but bidder owes 50% placement and 20% payment remains tied to handholding/placement.
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.
Late delivery/commissioning attracts 0.5% of undelivered order value per week, capped at 5%; warranty-service delay attracts 0.5% of order value excluding tax per week, capped at 5%. DTE&T may recover from payments/security, cancel pending work and complete it through another bidder.
No advance; 20% of project value is retained and paid in three instalments over handholding years, linked to certification and placement. Milestones 1/2 require inspection/third-party satisfactory reports, creating acceptance and working-capital exposure.
5% performance security is held initially 68 months and released only 60 days after warranty completion; DTE&T may deduct losses/penalties. Separate annual CAMC security is also required. This creates overlapping security and extension risk.
Bidder bears civil/electrical/plumbing, accessories, fire safety, testing, consumables during installation/handholding, customs clearance and all usual unlisted components at no extra cost, while quantities may vary ±25%. Site surveys and detailed design are essential before committing fixed prices.
Warranty is 60 months with minor repair in 3 days, major replacement in 15 days and imported parts within 4 weeks. CAMC delay deducts 0.5% of total contract value excluding tax per week up to 5%; taking equipment off-site may require a DD equal to equipment cost.
Any quality/specification non-compliance may terminate the contract. DTE&T may cancel/reject any/all bids and split/divide/negotiate scope without liability; no contractual obligation arises until formal contract.
All consortium members are jointly/severally liable; consortium break-up can reject the bid and debar every member for at least 24 months, in addition to normal penalties.
The inviting authority and relevant contacts: office, person, designation, address, phone and email — and which address receives physical submissions, if any.
