Cover 1 (technical) opens on 08 Sep 2026 at 1300 hrs or subsequent days; Cover 2 (financial) opening date is intimated online after technical evaluation.
Tender remains open for acceptance for 60 (sixty) days from the date tenders are due to be submitted.

Tender value or estimated cost, EMD/bid security (amount, acceptable forms, validity), tender document fees, performance security, and key payment terms.
Estimated cost is Rs 42.43 Lakhs (at par market rates); the estimate is only a rough guide and gives no claim if actual cost differs.
Cost of tender documents is Rs 500.00 as DD/Bankers cheque from any scheduled bank in favour of GE(U) Chandimandir, payable at Chandimandir Cantt.
EMD is Rs 84,860 in favour of GE (U) Chandimandir as Deposit at Call Receipt; FDR is not acceptable.
Successful contractor must lodge Performance Security Deposit equal to 5% of the contract sum within 28 days of receipt of Letter of Acceptance.
Quoted rates are deemed inclusive of all taxes/cesses including GST, duties, royalties, octroi and other levies as on due date of receipt of tender; conditional tax carve-outs make the bid liable to rejection.
No free-issue materials, T&P or transport under Schedules B, C and D (all NIL). Limited material advance is allowed for specified non-identity-losing manufactured items against bank guarantee for retention money.
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.
Must be enlisted with MES in Class ‘D’ and above and category b(i), with satisfactory performance remarks on works in hand in WLR or other competent-authority report.
Unenlisted firms may bid if they meet MES Class ‘D’ and category b(i) enlistment criteria under paras 1.4 & 1.5 of Section 1 of MES Manual on Contracts 2020 (completed works with eligible government/PSU bodies, turnover, bank solvency, working capital and other requirements).
Only one bid per contractor/firm; father-son or other close relations with business dealings cannot bid as separate competitors; related firms (common proprietor/partner/director) shall not be issued tender simultaneously.
Contractor cannot execute the work by subletting or through Power of Attorney to a third party/another firm; limited POA to sons/daughter/spouse of proprietor/partner/director or firm’s own employees/director/project manager is allowed if they do not have a separate MES enlistment.
For electrical works under Rule 29 Part-III of CEA Regulation 2010, firm electrical licence (or agreement with licensed agency), supervisor competency certificate, and worker/tradesmen permits from the concerned State/UT are mandatory.
Contractor must employ only Indian Nationals after verifying antecedents and loyalty; foreign nationals only if unavoidable, with full particulars to Accepting Officer at tender submission.
What is being procured: the work, supplies or services, deliverables and quantities, locations, phases, completion or delivery timelines, applicable standards, and notable exclusions.
Provision of lighting solution at Shakti Dwar, Chandimandir Military Station under CA No. GE(U)/CHM-37/2026-27; executing agency and Accepting Officer is GE (U) Chandimandir.
Item-rate measurement contract on IAFW-1779-A with GCC IAFW-2249 and Schedule A/BOQ to be priced by the bidder; BOQ covers design, supply, installation, testing and commissioning of a facade lighting system with DMX control.
Whole BOQ scope must be completed within 180 days from commencement (Work Order No. 1). BOQ quantities are provisional and may vary only within Condition 7 of IAFW-2249 limits; ordered deviations may go up to 10%.
Materials must be ISI marked (not mere IS-compliant equivalents) unless BOQ-specific makes/brands take precedence; electrical works under IE Rules; no free-issue materials/T&P/transport (Schedules B/C/D NIL).
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.
Single-stage two-cover e-tender on www.defproc.gov.in only: Cover-1 technical application/documents and Cover-2 financial BOQ; no physical/email/fax bid is bonafide.
Original physical DD/Bankers cheque for tender cost and EMD instruments (as applicable) must reach office of Accepting Officer (GE (U) Chandimandir) within 07 days of bid submission end date.
If Cover-1 document deficiencies are noticed, bidder gets 7 days from communication to rectify, else Cover-2 is not opened. DSC signatory must upload POA/affidavit/constitutional authority documents as applicable.
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 downloaded tender pack contains only the NIT, tender documents and BOQ; no corrigendum or addendum file is present, so original document values apply without amendment.
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 and tender contents title the work as ‘PROVN OF LIGHTNING SOLUTION…’, but the BOQ names it ‘Provn of lighting solution…’ and the priced items are facade LED luminaires and DMX controls—not lightning-protection works.
Forwarding letter requires unenlisted bidders to submit a Bid Securing Declaration on letterhead, but the declaration text is blank; Appendix A simultaneously mandates EMD Deposit-at-Call of Rs 84,860 for unenlisted bidders (and enlisted without SSD).
Tender documents state Cover-1 opening at 1300 hrs on 08 Sep 2026; external portal metadata may show 07:30 UTC, which is the same IST instant, not a different local time.
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 Accepting Officer to confirm in writing that the scope is facade/architectural lighting per BOQ (including design responsibility), and that the NIT title ‘LIGHTNING SOLUTION’ is only a typographical variant.
Request the exact Bid Securing Declaration wording and confirm whether unenlisted bidders must submit both the declaration and the Rs 84,860 Deposit-at-Call EMD.
Seek the approved-make list / acceptable equivalents for LED luminaires, drivers, neon flex and DMX components; BOQ names only ‘DMX Controller Nicolaudie’ and requires all luminaires to be same/compatible make with the DMX system.
Clarify whether firm electrical licence (or licensed-agency agreement) must be uploaded at Cover-1 or only produced for execution, given the ban on subletting to another firm and the facade-lighting specialist nature of the BOQ.
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.
Although classified unrestricted, work access may route through unit lines with passes, searches, fixed routes and normal material movement only 0830–1700 hrs; no extra for lost man-hours.
Contractor rates include complete design/planning of the facade lighting system and must obtain GE approval of design before start; approved-make appendices referenced in contents are not attached, so sample rejection and redesign risk sits with the bidder.
5% performance security must be lodged within 28 days of LOA and is refundable only after 24-month defects liability period, final bill and No-Demand Certificate—long cash lock-in relative to a ~Rs 42.43 Lakh works contract.
If L1 revokes offer, revises rates upward or offers voluntary reduction after Cover-2 opening / bid close, penalty equal to earnest money is levied (forfeiture for unenlisted; MRO deposit for enlisted with SSD) and retendering is resorted to; defaulter is barred from subsequent calls of this tender.
BOQ quantities are guidance only; no materials/T&P/transport are issued free; water is contractor’s responsibility (or charged if MES supplies); electricity is charged at Rs 12.05/unit with no continuity guarantee—price and programme risk on the contractor.
Late physical EMD (where applicable) blocks Cover-2; late physical tender-fee has 6-month ban consequences; quoting on a pre-revised BOQ after corrigendum is treated as willful negligence and non-bonafide.
The inviting authority and relevant contacts: office, person, designation, address, phone and email — and which address receives physical submissions, if any.
Garrison Engineer (U) Chandimandir is the Accepting Officer, tender issuing officer and executing agency.
Appeal against non-validation of technical bid lies to Next Higher Engineer Authority (NHEA) / CWE Chandimandir on [email protected], with copy to Accepting Officer on [email protected], before scheduled Cover-2 opening.
Disputes under Condition 70 of IAFW-2249 are referred to sole arbitrator appointed by Chief Engineer, Chandigarh Zone, Chandigarh (or the officer officiating as such).
