What is being procured: the work, supplies or services, deliverables and quantities, locations, phases, completion or delivery timelines, applicable standards, and notable exclusions.
Turnkey Design, Development, Deployment, Hosting, Operation, Maintenance and Technical Support of an Interactive Multilingual Web Portal for BRICS-Centre of Excellence on Natural Farming / ICAR-IIFSR.
Portal must deliver interactive homepage/dashboard, user/delegate/event management, AI search/chatbot/translation, document repository, BRICS knowledge exchange, media, analytics/MIS, PWA, CMS, SEO, accessibility and related modules listed in ATC and detailed SOW.
AI semantic search/chatbot/translation/document search/analytics/report generation/NLP; hosting with min 1 TB SSD, SSL, WAF, DDoS, DR, daily backups, VA/security audit and 99.9% annual uptime; min 250 official email IDs and cloud hosting stack.
Must comply with GIGW, CERT-In, MeitY/NIC, ISO/IEC 27001, OWASP, WCAG 2.1 AA, GoI open API/interoperability standards and later mandatory government updates at no extra cost.
3-year comprehensive maintenance/support after acceptance; SLA resolution Critical 4 hrs / Major 24 hrs / Minor 72 hrs; ≥99.9% annual uptime excluding approved scheduled maintenance.
Design, development, deployment, testing, commissioning and formal acceptance to be completed within fifteen (15) days from award of Contract.
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.
Online two-packet bid on GeM (GEM/2026/B/7856572); technical and financial evaluation under QCBS.
Upload scanned EMD with online bid; submit hard copy to Buyer within 5 working days of bid opening (or upload valid exemption proof).
Bidder/OEM must have dedicated/toll-free telephone number for service support; no separate digital-signature class beyond GeM portal participation is prescribed in these documents.
Bid requires 'Certificate (Requested in ATC)' and 'Additional Doc 1 (Requested in ATC)', but the uploaded ATC/Instruction document does not name those specific certificates or provide proformas.
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 supplied tender document set contains no corrigendum or addendum PDF, and no amended values superseding the original bid dates, amounts or conditions.
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 details mandate seller upload of 'Certificate (Requested in ATC)' and 'Additional Doc 1 (Requested in ATC)', yet the ATC/Instruction To Bidder attachment does not specify those documents or formats.
Payment/ATC require full design-to-acceptance within 15 days of award, while SOW demands a complex multilingual AI portal, 250 email IDs, 1 TB secure hosting and extensive modules—creating an internal feasibility conflict on delivery obligations.
ATC Clause 22 says more-specific ATC terms prevail over GeM GTC to the extent permissible, while the bid cover says Service Level Agreement conditions override conflicting GTC conditions.
GeM similar categories include AR/VR application development and webcasting, while the actual scope is an interactive multilingual government web portal for BRICS natural farming.
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 buyer to specify mandatory contents/format for GeM fields 'Certificate (Requested in ATC)' and 'Additional Doc 1 (Requested in ATC)', since ATC is silent.
Seek confirmation whether full portal go-live/acceptance within 15 days of award is absolute, and whether phased MVP acceptance is allowed before 50% payment.
Clarify whether hosting must be on MeitY-empanelled cloud/NIC/government data centre in India, and any data residency or SOC constraints beyond generic CERT-In/ISO language.
Confirm whether 3-year AI API usage, 250 mailbox licenses, SSL, domain and cloud bandwidth are fully inside the quoted lumpsum or reimbursable under payment clause (d).
Request definition of acceptable similar projects given GeM AR/VR/webcast categories versus QCBS focus on Government web portals (MeitY/NIC/ICAR/Ministries/Universities).
Confirm registration process, authorized representative proof, whether online attendance is allowed, and how attendance will be recorded for disqualification control.
Clarify whether a tender-specific prototype is required or prior similar portals suffice, evaluation scoring rubric within the 30 marks, and hardware/network facilities provided at venue.
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.
Delay attributable to bidder attracts LD at 0.5% of Contract Value per week or part thereof, capped at 10% of total Contract Value, without prejudice to other remedies.
50% payment is gated on complete design–development–deployment–testing–commissioning–acceptance within 15 days of award for a broad AI multilingual portal.
Only 50% is paid on acceptance; remaining 50% is split at 1.5 years and at full 3-year O&M completion with exit/handover certification.
Critical issues in 4 hours, major 24 hours, minor 72 hours, 99.9% annual uptime; maintenance includes functional enhancements for smooth operation and mandatory government compliance updates at no extra cost.
Missing pre-bid attendance disqualifies; missing 27-08-2026 prototype demo without prior approval makes bid liable for rejection; technical cutoff 70/100 with demo carrying 30 marks.
Competent Authority may modify/cancel process, add/delete scope, impose additional conditions, and accept/reject any bids; option clause allows up to 25% quantity/duration increase and, for lumpsum services, scope/value increase up to 25% with consent.
All IP and digital assets including AI models/prompts transfer exclusively to ICAR-IIFSR; bidder retains no ownership/usage rights after completion; confidentiality survives expiry/termination.
Seller must ensure full compliance with applicable labour laws/Labour Codes; non-compliance is breach entitling buyer action.
The inviting authority and relevant contacts: office, person, designation, address, phone and email — and which address receives physical submissions, if any.
