165 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.
₹500000 inclusive of all taxes; it is guidance for EMD/eligibility only and does not determine price reasonableness.
Not required. Therefore no EMD amount, instrument form, or validity applies to this bid.
No tender document/bid participation fee is specified; GeM's bid disclaimer says asking for such a fee would make the bid/resultant contract null and void.
ePBG is 5.00% of contract value for 14 months, in favour of ADDITIONAL DIRECTOR CGHS AHMEDABAD. Acceptable forms under GTC include insurance surety bond, account-payee demand draft, fixed deposit receipt, commercial-bank guarantee/e-bank guarantee, or acceptable online payment. It must be submitted within 15 days of GeM award; payment becomes due only after receipt and genuineness verification.
100% service payment is based on monthly bills and is due within 10 days after SDAC and online bill submission. The provider must first pay deployed staff salaries/wages from its own funds, then claim reimbursement with PF, ESIC and staff-payment bank statement.
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 eligible legal entity registered as a seller/service provider on GeM; in this service category, any legal entity offering the service may be a service provider. Seller registration data must remain validated and current.
Service provider must be located within Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation limits and submit documentary evidence. This is an explicit pass/fail additional qualification.
Bidder must not be under liquidation, court receivership or similar proceedings and must not be bankrupt; an undertaking must accompany the bid.
The bid does not state any numeric experience, past-performance, turnover, profitability or net-worth threshold. It nevertheless marks complete MSE and DPIIT-startup relaxation from experience and turnover criteria, subject to meeting quality/technical specifications and uploading exemption evidence.
Bidder/OEM must have a dedicated or toll-free support telephone number and provide an escalation matrix of service-support telephone numbers.
By participating, the seller undertakes that it is not presently debarred under Rule 151 of GFR 2017. False, misleading or forged bid information, failure to furnish required documents, or failure to provide performance security can trigger suspension/debarment/removal.
A bidder from a country sharing a land border with India, or any bidder with a specified ToT arrangement with such an entity, is eligible only if registered with the Competent Authority. Registration must be valid at bid submission and acceptance; false declaration/non-compliance can lead to immediate termination, debarment and legal action.
MII compliance is required; the seller/service provider must self-certify local content at bidding. A false local-content declaration is a Code of Integrity breach and may cause debarment up to two years.
No tender-specific consortium/JV structure, size, lead-member or equity requirements are stated. Clause 26 only makes every consortium/JV member subject to the land-border restriction; it does not itself authorize consortium bidding.
What is being procured: the work, supplies or services, deliverables and quantities, locations, phases, completion or delivery timelines, applicable standards, and notable exclusions.
One-year, per-kilometre goods transport service using light-duty pickup trucks, including loading and unloading, for pharmaceuticals and machinery/equipment. Trips are one-way and operate in plains.
2680 running km for pharmaceuticals plus machinery/equipment, within city, 0-50 km range. Eleven consignee entries are listed across Ahmedabad and Gandhinagar addresses; the line-item quantities total 2680 km.
1680 running km for pharmaceuticals, travel outside city but within Gujarat, 151-300 km range, with the consignee at Panigate Telephone Exchange compound, Ajwa Road, Vadodara. Approximate loading and unloading weight for the entire contract is 12 MT/KL each.
GPS tracking and transit insurance are marked NA for both service lines.
Buyer may increase or decrease quantity or duration by up to 25% when issuing the contract; after issue, only an increase up to 25% is permitted, and bidders must accept the revision.
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 electronically through GeM as a Single Packet Bid. Participation constitutes acceptance of GTC, STC and ATC. No bid-stage physical original is required because EMD is not required; the general GTC hard-copy EMD rule is therefore inapplicable.
GeM uses Aadhaar-based e-signing for documents; the GTC states this e-sign is legally at par with digital signatures under the Information Technology Act Amendment 2008.
Upload every certificate/document requested in the bid and ATC; omission makes the offer liable to rejection. No prescribed bid forms, proformas or annexures are printed in either supplied document.
Successful bidder must furnish the 5% performance security to the buyer within 15 days after GeM award. The bid does not specify a separate physical-delivery deadline/address beyond the beneficiary details.
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 expressly make EMD not required, but Buyer Added Term 1 tells MSME/NSIC agencies to enclose an EMD-exemption certificate. The specific EMD Detail and GeM disclaimer prevail: no EMD is payable, while uploading the certificate remains a conservative compliance step for an MSME/NSIC bidder because the ATC asks for it.
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.
Request the applicable Goods Transport Service SLA, including service levels, vehicle/driver requirements, trip-call process, downtime/substitution rules, loss/damage liability and penalty matrix. The bid says the SLA governs and overrides conflicting GTC terms, but no SLA document is included in the supplied tender folder.
Clarify who bears loss, theft, contamination or damage to pharmaceuticals/equipment in transit, required vehicle/cargo insurance, and claim limits. Both lines mark transit insurance NA, yet the cargo may be high-value/regulated and the supplied documents do not allocate this risk specifically.
Confirm whether payment is for loaded one-way kilometres only, the start/end points and odometer/GPS evidence, treatment of empty return travel, toll/parking/waiting charges, and whether loading/unloading labour is fully included. GPS is NA and all trips are one-way, leaving material rate assumptions unresolved.
Confirm whether the salary-first/PF/ESIC clause applies only to driver/helper personnel, the required headcount and working pattern, and whether reimbursement is embedded in per-km rates. The scope gives kilometres and cargo but no staffing schedule, while payment requires employee statutory records.
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.
The service-specific SLA is contractually controlling but is not among the supplied files. Its absent penalty/service matrix creates material unquantified execution and pricing risk.
Delay LD is 0.5% of the contract value of delayed quantity per week or part, normally capped at 5% of total contract value and up to 10% for inordinate delay (more than 25% of completion period). Buyer may cancel the unperformed portion, forfeit performance security, downgrade rating or seek debarment.
Provider must pre-fund all deployed-staff wages and statutory dues. Monthly payment follows only after SDAC and online billing, and no payment is due until performance-security receipt/genuineness is verified; buyer may reject a service within 10 days.
Buyer can vary quantity or duration by up to 25% at contract issue and increase it after issue; bidder is bound to accept. Vehicle/manpower capacity and fixed-cost recovery must absorb this swing.
Transit insurance and GPS are NA despite transport of pharmaceuticals and machinery/equipment. The supplied terms do not expressly cap cargo loss/damage exposure or define custody evidence.
Assignment or subcontracting needs prior written buyer consent; even with consent, the seller remains jointly and severally liable with the assignee/subcontractor.
The inviting authority and relevant contacts: office, person, designation, address, phone and email — and which address receives physical submissions, if any.
Buyer organisation is Central Government Health Scheme (CGHS), office Ahmedabad. HOD grievance email: [email protected]. Buyer email: [email protected]. No phone number is stated.
ADDITIONAL DIRECTOR CGHS AHMEDABAD; S R HOUSE, OPPOSITE BATA SHOWROOM, ASHRAM ROAD, AHMEDABAD-380009; named beneficiary contact Dr Alma S Kujur. No bid-stage physical submission is required because EMD is not required; this is the only address stated for security purposes.
