All important dates as they stand after corrigenda: publication, pre-bid/clarification deadline, bid submission deadline, bid opening, and bid validity period.
Published/dating: 25-07-2026; bid submission closes 04-08-2026 12:00:00; bids open 04-08-2026 12:30:00. No corrigendum is present in the tender document set to amend these values.
No separate pre-bid meeting date or clarification deadline is stated. Objections/representations are to be raised through the Representation window in the seller dashboard; the buyer must reply before opening bids.
180 days from the bid end date. Any further extension requires mutual consent between buyer and seller.
Tender value or estimated cost, EMD/bid security (amount, acceptable forms, validity), tender document fees, performance security, and key payment terms.
The available bid document does not print an estimated tender value or tender-document/bid-participation fee. It states only that any estimated value is for EMD/eligibility guidance, and the GeM disclaimer treats a buyer-added tender fee as impermissible.
INR 215,302 in favour of MUNITIONS INDIA LIMITED, THE CHIEF GENERAL MANAGER. It must remain valid for 45 days beyond the 180-day bid validity. No interest is payable.
5.00% of contract value, required for 14 months. Submit within 15 days of GeM contract award; it must be valid two months beyond completion of all contractual obligations and extended if the obligation period is extended.
Buyer-entered daily minimum wage is INR 650 for the one semi-skilled supervisor and INR 556 for each of 17 unskilled labourers, exclusive of GST. The supporting undertaking says these rates apply from 01.04.2026 for C area.
The contractor must first pay deployed personnel from its own funds, then claim reimbursement with PF, ESIC and bank-payment evidence. Buyer payment is within 30 days after SDAC and online bill submission; this expressly supersedes the GTC's 10-day service-payment period.
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.
Minimum average annual bidder turnover is INR 22 lakh over the last three years ending 31 March of the previous financial year. Certified audited balance sheets or a CA/Cost Accountant certificate are required. For a bidder incorporated less than three years ago, completed financial years after incorporation are averaged.
Eligible MSEs and DPIIT-recognised startups receive complete relaxation from bidder-turnover criteria, subject to meeting technical/quality requirements and uploading proof.
The buyer ATC requires Udyam registration (Udyog Aadhaar is not accepted), EPFO registration, ESIC registration, PAN and GST registration; the GST full page must show the Director/Partner/Member/Owner name.
Bidder must not be under liquidation, court receivership or similar proceedings and must not be bankrupt; an undertaking is required with the bid.
No bidder-level past-experience or past-performance threshold is stated. The service profiles permit 0 to 3 years' experience; experienced incumbent labour only receives a preference during user-section selection and this is not a bidder qualification.
A valid Udyam-registered MSE that is itself the offered service provider may receive purchase preference up to L1+15%; if it matches L1, the selected award share is 100%. Traders are excluded.
A bidder from a country sharing a land border with India, or a bidder with the specified ToT arrangement, is eligible only if registered with the Competent Authority. False declaration/non-compliance can cause immediate termination, debarment and legal action.
A seller debarred from GeM, and its authorised sellers, cannot participate. False/misleading/forged documents, bid withdrawal during validity, failure to provide performance security, multiple bids, or participation by bidders from the same IP address expose the bid to rejection/forfeiture and administrative action.
No tender-specific consortium/JV composition, equity or lead-member qualification is prescribed in the available documents. After award, the contract is principal-to-principal and cannot be transferred or assigned to another agency.
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 manpower outsourcing for estate maintenance at Ordnance Factory Nalanda, Rajgir: 1 semi-skilled supervisor and 17 unskilled sweepers/labourers per day, deployed six days per week (26/27 days per month).
Sweep and clean utility buildings, roads and pathways; collect/manage and segregate biodegradable/non-biodegradable waste; clear choked sewer/drain pipelines and manholes; lift and bury dead animals as directed; and perform other work assigned by the User Section.
Deploy adults aged 18-59. The User Section makes final personnel selection after examination. Provide immediate replacement for absence/misconduct, record daily attendance, and have the supervisor report daily with attendance and complaint registers.
Submit government-hospital medical fitness reports within one month and PVRs within 30 days (affidavits apply until then); distribute ESIC cards and use workers' mobile numbers in EPF/ESIC registration.
OFN supplies necessary tools/tackles, consumables and required PPE. Labour must carry tools between work locations, while the contractor must ensure personnel arrange their own movement within the estate.
Contract-labour minimum wages follow the Chief Labour Commissioner (Central) rates for C area effective 01.04.2026: INR 556/day unskilled and INR 650/day semi-skilled; statutory labour-law compliance remains the service provider's responsibility.
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 the GeM portal as a Single Packet Bid. The tender asks bidders to upload documents with the bid; no separate technical/financial envelope structure or physical bid submission is prescribed.
The firm must comply with and duly sign all terms and conditions of the attached Scope of Work, Annexure-A. The bid does not state a separate DSC class, notarisation requirement or general attestation rule beyond the certification/signing stated for individual documents.
For EMD by DD/FDR/banker's cheque, upload a scan/proof with the bid and deliver the hard copy to the Buyer within 5 days of the Bid End date / Bid Opening date. For performance-security DD/FDR, upload after award and deliver the original within 15 days of award.
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 fixes minimum average annual turnover at INR 22 lakh, while Buyer ATC 12.2 says at least 30% of the estimated cost of each item; the bid does not disclose that estimated cost. The bid's disclaimer invalidates ATC clauses that contradict the Bid Detail section, so INR 22 lakh should prevail, but bidders should obtain buyer confirmation.
GeM GTC provides service payment within 10 days after SDAC and online bill submission unless an ATC overrides it; this bid expressly sets 30 days and says it supersedes GTC clause 12. The 30-day period prevails.
Buyer ATC 12.1 says every contractor 'must submit' an MSE Udyam certificate, while the main bid treats MSE status as a conditional relaxation/purchase-preference claim and excludes traders only from that preference—not from bidding. Because the disclaimer invalidates ATCs contravening the MSE section, the universal Udyam condition is vulnerable to being null; nevertheless, it is an express technical-evaluation demand and requires clarification before bid submission.
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.
Please confirm whether a non-MSE service provider may bid without Udyam registration. ATC 12.1 makes Udyam mandatory for every contractor, whereas the bid otherwise frames MSE as a conditional exemption/purchase-preference category and declares conflicting ATCs invalid.
Please confirm that INR 22 lakh is the sole turnover threshold. If the ATC's 30%-of-estimated-cost test is intended, disclose the estimated cost/item values and explain how it applies to this bundled total-value evaluation.
The contract runs 12 months but uses minimum-wage rates effective 01.04.2026. Please state whether subsequent statutory minimum-wage/VDA and employer-contribution increases are reimbursable through price variation or must be absorbed in the quoted rate, and specify the documentary mechanism.
Please define the examination/acceptance criteria and replacement timeline where the User Section rejects contractor-proposed personnel, including who bears idle-time, onboarding, medical and police-verification costs after commencement.
Please quantify cleaning areas/frequencies, waste volumes/disposal points, sewer/manhole work and dead-animal response requirements, and limit 'any other work' to the tendered manpower category. These variables materially affect productivity, safety and pricing.
Please identify the exact receiving officer/room and confirm whether the five-day period for original DD/FDR/banker's cheque runs from Bid End or Bid Opening; the clause uses both dates separated by a slash.
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.
Contractor must fund wages first and wait up to 30 days after SDAC and online bill submission, while payment claims require PF/ESIC evidence and staff-payment bank statements. Any SDAC or statutory-document delay extends the cash cycle.
5% security is locked for 14 months, payment is not due until security is received and verified, no interest accrues, and breach permits whole/part forfeiture.
Delay attracts LD at 0.5% of delayed contract value per week/part, normally capped at 5% of total contract value and up to 10% for inordinate delay (more than 25% of completion period). Default can also cause cancellation, performance-security forfeiture, rating downgrade or GeM debarment.
The scope includes sewer/manhole clearing, dead-animal handling and 'any other work' assigned by the User Section. Bidder is deemed to know site conditions whether or not it visits, increasing safety, productivity and cost uncertainty.
User Section makes final selection after contract commencement; contractor must immediately replace misconduct/absence and maintain all 18 positions each factory working day. Medical reports and PVRs are due within 30 days, creating mobilization and replacement cost risk.
OFN disclaims responsibility for injury/death inside or outside the factory and places compensation responsibility on the contractor, despite hazardous sewer/manhole and dead-animal tasks.
Buyer may increase or decrease quantity or duration by up to 50% at contract issue, and after issue may increase quantity/duration up to 50%; bidders are bound to accept. This can materially change staffing and working-capital requirements.
The one-year contract is priced from rates effective 01.04.2026, but the available documents do not state a tender-specific reimbursement/escalation mechanism for later statutory wage/VDA increases. This is a material margin risk requiring pre-bid confirmation.
All bidders participating from the same IP address will be rejected. Missing any requested bid/ATC/corrigendum certificate or document also makes the offer liable to rejection.
The inviting authority and relevant contacts: office, person, designation, address, phone and email — and which address receives physical submissions, if any.
