The tender document set contains no corrigendum/addendum files; original NIT values continue to 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.
NIT Other Conditions state upper limit of LD is 10% of the value of contract, while Central Railway Bid Document Para 15.3 and IRS Conditions Clause 7.5(b)(i) cap LD at 10% of the value of delayed supplies.
NIT header sets Earnest Money at INR 0.00, yet Other Conditions state authorized agents shall not be exempted from remitting EMD.
Bid Document/IRS describe standard 95%+5% structures in some cases, while this NIT expressly provides 100% payment against receipt, inspection and acceptance by consignee.
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 purchaser to confirm approximate tender/estimated value and whether Security Deposit will be demanded, given NIT shows no estimated rate and Bid Document exempts SD for store contracts up to Rs 25 lakh.
Seek confirmation whether SMF Lead Acid Battery 4.5 Ah at 3.7 V is intentional, or if voltage/chemistry is mistyped, because 3.7 V is atypical for SMF lead-acid packs and drives sourcing/cost.
Clarify whether NABL/ILAC/Central Govt type test report must be uploaded with the bid or only produced on consignee demand, and whether absence at bid stage is a ground for rejection.
Confirm whether only invitees on the limited-tender list may bid, or any IREPS-registered firm can submit against Tender No. 96265408.
Request full consignee delivery address and receiving officer details for FOR destination delivery and inspection coordination within 45 days.
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.
LD at 0.5% of store price per week or part week for delayed delivery, upper limit 10% (NIT: of contract value; standard texts: of delayed supplies). Bid Document says full LD will be levied and no request for LD waiver will be considered.
Only 45 days to deliver 20 search lights FOR destination to DSC/RPF/Solapur, with inspection and acceptance by consignee — rejection or late offer for inspection can trigger cancellation at risk and expense.
Missing same/similar supply proof (≤3 years) or trader OEM authorization can invalidate/reject the offer.
Offers evaluated on quoted GST/HSN; purchaser not responsible for misclassification; if billed GST/HSN differs from PO, payment at lower rate and vendor may have to adjust basic price to match all-inclusive PO price.
Any modification/clarification on PO conditions must be raised within 10 days of PO issue; thereafter PO is deemed accepted and later modification requests are at tenderer's liability.
If SD is exempted and supplier fails contractual conditions, purchaser may levy damages equal to the SD amount that would have applied, treated as recoveries outstanding.
No deviation from 90-day offer validity is permitted — non-compliant validity can make the bid non-responsive.
The inviting authority and relevant contacts: office, person, designation, address, phone and email — and which address receives physical submissions, if any.
