All important dates as they stand after corrigenda: publication, pre-bid/clarification deadline, bid submission deadline, bid opening, and bid validity period.
Published/dated 24-07-2026; bid submission closes 08-08-2026 17:00:00; bid opens 08-08-2026 17:30:00; offer validity is 90 days from the bid end date. No pre-bid meeting or clarification deadline is stated.
Tender value or estimated cost, EMD/bid security (amount, acceptable forms, validity), tender document fees, performance security, and key payment terms.
Estimated bid value is INR 30,00,000 inclusive of all taxes. The scope schedule totals INR 10,00,000 including 18% GST, transportation and installation; read with the three-school bid scope this appears to be one school/package, but the documents do not expressly say so.
EMD is INR 90,000 (3% of the estimated value), in favour of DEO NARMADA. It must remain valid 45 days beyond the 90-day bid validity. The bid/GTC permit surety bond, account-payee DD, FDR, banker’s cheque, bank guarantee/e-BG or acceptable online payment; the ATC specifically asks for a scanned DD and its original by RPAD, creating a conflict recorded under contradictions.
The successful bidder must furnish 5% ePBG for 12 months. GTC requires submission within 15 days of award, permits surety bond/DD/FDR/BG/e-BG/online payment, makes payment due only after verification, and requires validity through two months beyond all contractual and warranty obligations (with extension if obligations extend).
For services, 100% of monthly bills is payable within 10 days after SDAC and online bill submission. Payment requires invoice/GST invoice and acceptance records. Prices are all-inclusive and free-delivery-at-site; accepted rates must remain valid for one year from work order.
No tender/document fee is stated; the bid disclaimer expressly lists asking for a tender or participation fee as impermissible.
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.
Participation is effectively restricted to a Micro or Small Enterprise from Gujarat, validated through Udyam, acting as the service provider; traders/resellers are excluded. The bidder must also have an office in Gujarat, and the ATC separately bars agencies from outside the State.
Minimum average annual bidder turnover is INR 60 lakh over three years, GeM-verified. The ATC additionally requires three-year CA turnover, net-worth and working-capital evidence, plus CA-certified OEM net worth; no minimum net-worth, working-capital or OEM-turnover figure is stated.
At least one year of similar-service experience with a Central/State Government organisation or PSU is required. Over the stated look-back period, the bidder must also have completed either three similar services of at least 40% each, two of at least 50% each, or one of at least 80% of estimated cost.
Bidder must provide local establishment registration (Gram Panchayat/Municipality Gumasta), GST and PAN, audit reports and ITRs for A.Y. 2023-24 to 2025-26, GSTR-3B and GSTR-1 for those years, GST clearance through 31-03-2026, and professional-tax receipts for the last three years.
OEM authorisation and OEM annual-turnover documentation are required. The ATC also requires ISO 9001:2015, ISO 27001:2013, CE, GREENGUARD and Make in India certificates; the MII certificate must be from a competent authority. No certification scope, issuing body (except MII), or minimum OEM turnover is defined.
Bidder must submit a notarised non-blacklisting declaration on INR 300 non-judicial stamp paper. A bidder from a country sharing a land border with India is eligible only if registered with the Competent Authority; false declaration/non-compliance permits immediate termination and legal action.
MSEs and DPIIT-recognised Startups receive complete relaxation from experience and bidder-turnover criteria subject to quality/technical compliance and uploaded proof. This does not remove the separate Gujarat-MSE reservation for participation.
What is being procured: the work, supplies or services, deliverables and quantities, locations, phases, completion or delivery timelines, applicable standards, and notable exclusions.
Supply, transportation, installation and setup of KIDS STEM LABs for three schools in Narmada district. The technical schedule is organised into six packages: electronics/robotics/IoT/sensors; rapid prototyping; mechanical/electrical/measurement tools; power/safety; science equipment; and furniture with a 3D educational wall.
The attachment specifies 217 line items with per-item descriptions and quantities across the six packages. The final package includes four tables, four covers, one project board, one cupboard and one approximately 300–350 sq.ft. 3D educational wall with ceiling solar-system work. The schedule appears to describe one lab and the bid calls for three labs; bidders should obtain confirmation before pricing.
Items are to be supplied to schools in Narmada district according to the buyer’s list. Delivery period is 30 days after order; the bid contract period is one month. The consignee/reporting location shown is Collector Office Narmada, PIN 393145.
All items must conform to the specifications in the attachment. The category field says consumables/materials are provided by the buyer, while the attached schedule contains equipment, tools, furniture and setup items to be supplied by the bidder.
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. Technical documents are uploaded online; commercial pricing is evaluated total-value-wise and the technically qualified lowest 50% proceed to reverse auction.
The ATC says all bid documents must bear signature and seal and reach the buyer’s office by RPAD by the bid closing day; it separately requires the original EMD cover by the same deadline. The GTC instead allows the EMD hard copy within five working days after bid opening, and the bid disclaimer prohibits physical documents as a pre-qualification condition. Seek written clarification before relying on either route.
GeM e-sign is treated at par with a digital signature under the Information Technology Act. The tender does not specify a separate DSC class.
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.
Bid details show INR 30,00,000 inclusive of taxes, while the attached schedule totals INR 10,00,000 including GST, transportation and installation. The three-school scope suggests INR 10,00,000 may be per school, but this is not expressly stated; obtain confirmation and a school-wise BOQ before pricing.
ATC clause 23 specifies a 3% DD, but the bid expressly accepts a surety bond and the GTC defines several additional forms. Because the bid disclaimer says ATCs contradicting EMD Detail are invalid, the bid/GTC forms should prevail; written confirmation is prudent.
ATC requires original EMD and all signed/sealed bid documents by RPAD by bid end. GTC allows EMD hard copy within five working days after opening, while the bid disclaimer prohibits physical documents as a qualification prerequisite. The GeM bid/GTC position should prevail over the conflicting ATC, but the buyer must clarify the physical address and enforceable deadline.
Bid-specific ePBG duration is 12 months, but GTC requires security valid two months beyond completion of all obligations including warranty and extension where obligations extend. Several equipment specifications include warranties up to two years, so 12 months may be insufficient. The GTC extension obligation should apply in addition to the bid field.
The bid is a Facility Management Service and says consumables are buyer-provided, but the ATC schedule is predominantly procurement and installation of 217 equipment/furniture items. The bid disclaimer says procurement of goods through a service bid and adding items through ATC can make the bid/resultant contract null and void; buyer clarification/correction is essential.
The bid contract period is one month and delivery is 30 days after order, but ATC clause 11 binds approved rates for one year from work order. Treat the 30-day execution as current scope and the one-year rate hold as a separate commercial exposure, subject to clarification on repeat orders.
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.
Confirm whether the INR 10,00,000 schedule is per school and must be multiplied by three to reconcile to the INR 30,00,000 estimated bid value; issue a school-wise BOQ and identify all three schools.
Clarify whether bidders must supply all 217 equipment/furniture lines or only provide facility-management services with buyer-provided consumables. If supply is intended, reissue/bunch the correct goods/BOQ categories because the current disclaimer flags goods procured through a service bid and ATC-added items as impermissible.
Confirm whether only EMD or every bid document must be sent physically, the enforceable deadline (bid end versus five working days after opening), and the full RPAD delivery address. Also confirm that bidders will not be disqualified solely for non-receipt of physical technical documents contrary to the disclaimer.
Specify whether ISO/CE/GREENGUARD certificates must be held by bidder or OEM, their applicable product/scope and accepted issuing/accreditation bodies; also state the OEM annual-turnover and OEM net-worth thresholds/periods, which are requested but not quantified.
Identify warranty obligations for every item and confirm the required ePBG expiry, since the bid says 12 months while GTC requires two months beyond all warranties and some listed equipment carries a two-year warranty.
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.
Delivery is due within 30 days after order. Delay attracts LD at 0.5% of delayed value per week or part, ordinarily capped at 5% of total contract value; delay beyond 25% of the completion period is inordinate and permits deduction up to 10%.
The goods-heavy ATC is placed under a service category, and the bid’s own disclaimer says goods-through-service procurement and ATC-added items can render the bid/resultant contract null and void. This is a material bid-cost and award-enforceability risk.
Payment is due only after performance-security receipt/verification and then after monthly SDAC and online invoice. No payment is due for rejected services, while the buyer has 10 days to reject after receipt. The 12-month ePBG field may need extension through longer product warranties.
Buyer may vary contract quantity or duration by up to 25% at award and increase it up to 25% after award; bidders are bound to accept. For lump-sum services, scope and contract value may increase up to 25% with service-provider consent.
Although execution is one month/30 days, approved rates are held for one year from work order, exposing the bidder to inflation and repeat-order ambiguity; extended delivery also carries no upward price adjustment while buyer receives GST reductions.
The bid explicitly selects no arbitration and no mediation, increasing reliance on the GeM dispute-resolution process and other legal remedies.
False/misleading documents, bid withdrawal during validity, or failure to furnish performance security can forfeit EMD and trigger GeM debarment. Unsatisfactory execution can also lead to performance-security forfeiture and suspension/debarment.
