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.
Open e-tender on www.ireps.gov.in only; Single Packet System; manual offers ignored.

Single Packet System — technical and financial elements submitted together online; no multi-cover physical envelope structure stated.
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.
No corrigendum or addendum amending this tender's dates, values or conditions is present in the document set; original NIT/tender document values apply.

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.
Tender document lists submission up to 12:00 Hrs and opening at 12:30 Hrs, while the IREPS NIT header sets Closing Date/Time as 18/09/2026 12:30.
Cover particulars insist EMD by electronic transfer, while Instructions/GCC text also allow Bid Security as Bank Guarantee (Annexure-VIA) with physical original delivery.
NIT undertakings still require a notarized affidavit on non-judicial stamp paper in Annexure-V format, while the tender document notes Railway Board discontinued physical signed Annexure-V upload because IREPS has online Annexure-V.
Completion-time clause threatens penalty 'as laid down in Para 14 of this tender document', but Para 14 in the General Obligations section is 'Excavated Material', not an LD schedule.
Clause 13 guarantees executed work for 12 months from completion, while special conditions and BOQ items require 5-year OEM/under-warranty maintenance for facade luminaires and controls.
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.
Ask Sr.DEE/G/SEE to confirm whether e-bids are accepted until 12:00 or 12:30 on 18/09/2026 given the NIT vs tender-booklet conflict.
Confirm whether only electronic EMD is enabled on the live tender or whether Annexure-VIA BG will also be accepted and to which official the original BG must be delivered.
Request written confirmation of the value of N used in V/N for this 180-day completion period (fraction of a year vs 1 year) so turnover threshold is unambiguous.
Clarify whether only 'Supply and Erection of LED light fitting in service building/circulating area/staff quarters/station building area' credentials count, or whether outdoor facade/DMX architectural lighting experience is also accepted as similar.
Ask expected Railway design-approval timeline and RITES inspection booking lead time, and whether time lost in approval/inspection is compensable under clause 17A.
Seek clarification on what class of unlisted works falls under contractor-borne completion items versus paid variation under GCC quantity-variation clauses.
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.
Time is essence; contractor-caused delay attracts LD of 0.05%–0.30% of contract value per week or part week, capped at 5%, with possible rescission and SD appropriation if still incomplete.
Warranty complaints must be rectified within 24 hours; thereafter 5% of cost of defective luminaires per day (doubling every 10 days), or flat Rs. 20,000/day for complete facade failure (also doubling every 10 days).
EMD + 5% SD (6% recovery from bills) + 5% PG (+ additional PG if quoted below advertised value) create heavy cash lock; bills also depend on GST/Shramikkalyan/PAN compliance.
Unlisted items necessary for completion are at contractor cost; quantities are approximate and may be varied/deleted; design must be Railway-approved before procurement; rates are all-inclusive of taxes.
Multiple independent summary-rejection triggers: missing electrical/supervisory licences, EPFO/UAN, UDIN on financials, Annexure-V/V(A), conditional offers, JV bid, false documents (forfeiture + ban).
Major materials subject to M/s RITES inspection at contractor's cost and arrangement; rejected equipment must be replaced before installation.
The inviting authority and relevant contacts: office, person, designation, address, phone and email — and which address receives physical submissions, if any.
Sr. Divisional Electrical Engineer / General (Sr.DEE/G/SEE), East Central Railway, Sonpur, acting for the President of India.
Venue of opening: Office of Sr. Divl. Elect. Engineer/G, East Central Railway, Sonpur.
Tenderer must submit own contact number with bank/PAN/GST particulars; not an authority contact.
