All important dates as they stand after corrigenda: publication, pre-bid/clarification deadline, bid submission deadline, bid opening, and bid validity period.
Published on 26/08/2026 at 10:28 hrs.
No pre-bid conference is required; the conference date/time is stated as Not Applicable. No separate clarification deadline is specified.
Online bids may be submitted or revised up to 22/09/2026 at 14:25 hrs; manual offers are not allowed.
The documents do not state a separate scheduled bid-opening date/time; IREPS may open tenders after the due date/time, but no bid can be submitted after closing.
120 days; any deviation from this validity causes summary rejection. The SBD's generic 90-day minimum is overridden by this tender-specific requirement.
Tender value or estimated cost, EMD/bid security (amount, acceptable forms, validity), tender document fees, performance security, and key payment terms.
No estimated tender value is disclosed in the tender documents. Tender document cost is INR 0.00.
EMD is INR 20,00,000. Non-exempt bidders must pay it online through the IREPS payment-gateway link; an exempt bidder must upload supporting evidence and is deemed to sign the bid-security declaration. If bid validity is extended, EMD validity must also be suitably extended.
The applicable SBD schedule is: above INR 25 lakh and up to INR 50 crore, 5% of contract value capped at INR 50 lakh; above INR 50 crore, INR 1 crore. It is due within 21 days of LOA and must remain valid for 60 days beyond completion of all contractual obligations. RDSO-approved-list vendors are among the stated exemptions, subject to valid approval status on tender closing.
80% is payable within 30 days against inspection certificate and consignee-signed rail/road challan proving sound receipt. Balance 20% is payable within 90 days after satisfactory installation, commissioning, proving test and acceptance, against a bank guarantee for 10% of contract value valid six months beyond the warranty period.
The specified IEEMA PVC for traction power transformers above 33 kV and up to 400 kV is mandatory, using the June 2026 base circular issued 07/07/2026; any deviation causes summary rejection.
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.
Bidder must be an approved or unconditional developmental source in the IREPS Vendor Directory (U-VAM) for RDSO Item ID 3100609. Vendor status is reckoned on tender opening; later downgrading, removal, suspension or banning is considered.
An authorized dealer may bid only with a tender-specific authorization on the RDSO-source manufacturer's letterhead and must state the manufacturer's works name/address; non-submission makes the offer invalid and summarily rejected.
Bidder must declare local-content percentage and self-certify Class-I/Class-II status. Class-I requires at least 50% local content and Class-II at least 20% but below 50%; eligibility is governed by the applicable Make in India category rules.
A bidder from a country sharing a land border with India is eligible only when registered with the competent authority and must enclose evidence of valid registration.
Bidder and all constituents must not be blacklisted or debarred by Railways or any Government of India ministry/department on bid submission. Forged or false qualification material causes summary rejection and EMD forfeiture; after award it causes termination and Security Deposit forfeiture, with possible business banning up to two years.
The tender is restricted by RDSO source status and does not state a consortium/JV bidding route or separate turnover/net-worth threshold in the tender-specific eligibility conditions.
What is being procured: the work, supplies or services, deliverables and quantities, locations, phases, completion or delivery timelines, applicable standards, and notable exclusions.
Supply four 21.6/30.24 MVA, 132/27 kV, 50 Hz, single-phase ONAN/ONAF traction power transformers: two under each tender group, complete with accessories and first fill of transformer oil. Item quantity tolerance is +/-5%.
Scope includes design, manufacture, assembly, pre-dispatch testing, FOR-destination delivery, unloading, installation, testing and commissioning, plus free supervision and on-site training by the OEM/vendor.
Complete within 60 days from PO. Deliver two transformers to Kuanwaria/TSS in the Nathdwara–Devgarh Mandaria section and two to Kanor/TSS in the Mavali–Nimach section; consignee is SSE/C/EL/JP.
Conform to RDSO Specification TI/SPC/PSI/TRNPWR/3201 with A&C Slip No. 01 or latest. Inspection is by system-assigned TPI only. Tender-specific warranty is 30 months after delivery.
Evaluation adds capitalized transformer losses calculated under Annexure-5 using maximum principal-tap load loss C=85,000 W and no-load loss I=9,000 W. If inspected losses exceed guaranteed values, unit price is reduced by the excess capitalization; there is no upward adjustment for lower losses.
Offer must include complete SOGP, clause-by-clause compliance/deviation statements, design calculations, specified drawings, QAP, ISO quality certification, plant/testing-facility list, calibration certificates, type-test report, and supply/performance records. Approved drawings and maintenance manuals are contract deliverables.
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 on IREPS in a single packet, completing the techno-commercial and financial offer forms. Manual/post/fax/in-person offers are invalid. Registration on IREPS and a Class-III Digital Signature Certificate are required.
Digital signature on the e-tender confirms acceptance of all conditions. Supporting qualification documents must be self-attested or digitally signed. No physical original is required by the tender documents at bid stage.
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.
SBD Clause 10.1 gives a generic minimum of 90 days, while the NIT mandates 120 days and rejects deviations. The NIT prevails under the tender's express order of precedence; 120 days applies.
RDSO Specification Clause 9.8 says the Purchaser erects and commissions while the manufacturer provides a supervising engineer; NIT Clause 12 instead makes installation, testing and commissioning the OEM/firm's responsibility. The tender-specific NIT prevails, so the bidder must include full installation/testing/commissioning.
The specification refers warranty to generic IRS conditions, whereas each tender item states 30 months after delivery. The item-specific 30-month period applies.
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 that both TSS sites, foundations, oil-handling arrangements, erection access, shutdowns and Railway interfaces will be ready from PO date. The 60-day completion period includes delivery and OEM installation/commissioning and is commercially material.
Issue an explicit amendment reconciling the NIT's full OEM installation obligation with Specification 9.8, which assigns erection/commissioning to the Purchaser and only continuous supervision to the manufacturer; define civil works, cranes, tools, oil filtration, power and consumables by party.
Clarify whether an unconditional RDSO developmental vendor listed on U-VAM qualifies as a vendor on the 'approved vendor list' for Security Deposit exemption under SBD 12.2(g), or must furnish the scheduled SD.
Define the commissioning/proving-test protocol, Railway dependencies and deemed-acceptance timeline because 20% remains payable only after satisfactory commissioning and acceptance, backed by a 10% warranty BG.
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.
All four transformers, including destination delivery and OEM installation/testing/commissioning at two TSS locations, must complete within 60 days from PO.
LD is 0.5% of store price per week or part, capped at 10% of contract value. Failure of an installment is treated as breach, and Security Deposit may be forfeited for contractual default.
20% is withheld until installation, commissioning, proving and acceptance and may take up to 90 days; release requires a 10% contract-value BG valid six months beyond the 30-month warranty.
A higher tested loss than quoted reduces the unit price under the capitalization formula, while better-than-guaranteed losses earn no upward adjustment. Incorrectly low capitalization can also cause technical rejection.
Purchaser may increase ordered quantity by up to 30% during the running contract, in one or more installments, on original terms and conditions.
Pricing must absorb unloading, installation/testing/commissioning, supervision and training without separate charge, plus FOR-destination transit responsibility.
If post-award certification shows the supplier no longer meets its claimed Class-I/Class-II category, 10% of contract value is deducted, even though the contract is not terminated on that ground.
Any deviation from TPI inspection, mandatory PVC, or 120-day validity is summarily rejected; mismatch between the loss calculation sheet and items 1.2/2.2 also rejects the bid.
The inviting authority and relevant contacts: office, person, designation, address, phone and email — and which address receives physical submissions, if any.
Principal Chief Materials Manager, Stores Department, North Western Railway, acting for and on behalf of the President of India. The tender documents do not name an individual officer or give a tender-specific postal address/email/phone.
Consignee is SSE/C/EL/JAIPUR, NWR (also abbreviated SSE/C/EL/JP); delivery is to Kuanwaria/TSS and Kanor/TSS. No named person, phone or email is stated.
