All important dates as they stand after corrigenda: publication, pre-bid/clarification deadline, bid submission deadline, bid opening, and bid validity period.
25.07.2026. No corrigendum is included in the tender folder.
28.07.2026 at 14:00 hrs IST, derived from the RFQ instruction that offers must reach BHEL 30 minutes before the 14:30 opening on the due date.
28.07.2026 at 14:30 hrs IST.
90 days from Part-I opening.
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 or tender-document fee is stated in the supplied tender documents; the BOQ estimated-rate and total fields are blank.
Not applicable; therefore no EMD amount, instrument, validity or claim period applies.
The tender-specific status says 'Not Applicable'. This conflicts with boilerplate immediately following it that requires 5% within 14 days and validity until 60 days beyond all obligations including warranty; bidder should obtain written confirmation before pricing.
Quote firm INR rates on FOR destination-site basis, inclusive of packing/forwarding and freight; GST is extra, subject to compliance. Transit insurance and unloading are in BHEL's scope.
100% direct EFT from site acknowledgement: 90 days for non-MSME, 60 days for Medium suppliers, and 45th day for MSE suppliers, against GST invoice, packing list, GeM invoice and site-acknowledged LR. Deviation leads to rejection; no interest is payable.
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 established HDPE pipes and fittings supplier with adequate engineering, manufacturing, testing, inspection and servicing facilities, supported by technical evidence.
Experience supplying specification-compliant HDPE pipes and fittings for power plants or similarly severe applications is mandatory, with a supply reference list showing PO, date, customer, application, size and class.
Offered items must be from the bidder's existing regular supply range. Proven performance requires either one satisfactory end-user certificate for the specified or higher requirement, or two successfully executed POs for the same or superior item, with corresponding technical documents.
Bidder must confirm pointwise responsibility for replacing failed/defective components, ability to assist commissioning if required, and product performance during erection and commissioning with performance guarantee.
Financial soundness is made pass/fail under PQR 1.2, but the referenced Annexure C and its turnover threshold/years are absent from the supplied documents. Audited balance sheets and P&L accounts for the applicable years are required; CA-certified statements are accepted where statutory audit is not required.
Bidder must not be under insolvency resolution or liquidation on the bid date. False, forged or spurious qualifying credentials can cause rejection/termination and suspension action.
A bidder from a country sharing a land border with India—including a qualifying consortium/JV member—may bid only with valid registration from the DPIIT Registration Committee at bid submission and acceptance.
Offers are rejectable for unsatisfactory past performance with BHEL, current suspension, or use of banned firms/principals/agents. Cartelisation, fraud, bribery or tender tampering can trigger suspension action.
Supplier must hold and submit an active GST registration certificate for the concerned state and keep it active throughout the contract.
What is being procured: the work, supplies or services, deliverables and quantities, locations, phases, completion or delivery timelines, applicable standards, and notable exclusions.
Supply 349 line-item units of PN6 HDPE pipe and moulded fittings for NTPL Tuticorin 2x500 MW FGD: NB50 pipe 220 m; NB100 pipe 40 m; 45° elbows NB50/NB100 4 each; 90° elbows NB50 25 and NB100 10; NB50xNB25 concentric reducers 4; NB50 equal tees 8; flanges NB50 30 and NB100 4.
Outdoor/above-ground piping on pedestals for transfer of wastewater from a storage tank in dusty, humid and corrosive surroundings; operating temperature 20°C to 60°C, specific gravity 1.1, PN6/6 bar, PE80, black with UV protection.
Use latest revisions: HDPE pipes to IS 4984 or equivalent, fittings suitable for those pipes, and flanges to ANSI B16.5 #150. Fittings/flanges must be moulded, pipe continuous lengths at least 5 m, and flanges leak-proof.
BHEL/BHEL-authorised inspection at vendor works applies. Tender-stage deliverables include catalogues, flange dimensions, joining/installation/storage procedures; post-order deliverables include cutting and installation procedures, drawings/calculations, supports, shipping/storage requirements, QAP, MTCs, dimensional reports and O&M manual if applicable.
FOR delivery is required within 21 days from PO, including manufacture, inspection, packing, forwarding and delivery. Bill-to/ship-to is NTPL Tuticorin FGD Project site; Annexure A also mentions delivery at project site/Trichy stores. BHEL handles unloading and transit insurance.
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 qualification and techno-commercial material in Part-I; only qualified bidders' Part-II price bids are opened. The supplied documents do not state a digital-signature class or any physical-original submission requirement.
Upload the supplied BOQ after entering only bidder name and permitted values; modification or replacement makes the bid liable to rejection.
Applicable declarations/forms require authorised-signatory signature, date and company seal. Any interlineation, cutting, erasure or overwriting must be attested by the full signature of the bid signatory or the bid is liable to rejection.
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.
Clause 13 first says performance security is not applicable, then clauses 13.1-13.7 require 5% security with no MSE exemption. The tender-specific 'Not Applicable' statement should prevail over the generic boilerplate, but written confirmation is essential.
PQR 1.3 says the Integrity Pact is not applicable, while clause 19 makes a signed pact a preliminary qualification. The item-specific PQR statement should prevail, but the missing Annexure 8 and rejection risk require BHEL clarification.
The RFQ item schedule fixes 30.08.26, while Annexure A requires delivery within 21 days from PO. Under the stated precedence, Buyer Added Bid Specific ATC (Annexure A) is the more specific governing condition, so plan for 21 days from PO unless BHEL confirms otherwise.
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.
What turnover threshold, reference years and other financial ratios apply under PQR 1.2? Annexure C is referenced but absent, making financial qualification impossible to assess.
Please confirm whether performance security is truly not applicable or whether 5% security under clauses 13.1-13.7 is required; if required, provide the applicable BG format because Annexure 17 is not included.
Is the Integrity Pact waived under PQR 1.3 or mandatory under clause 19? If mandatory, issue Annexure 8 before bid closing.
Please provide Annexures 2, 5, 8, 9 and 12-15 that the checklist/enclosure list requires but the supplied Docs.pdf does not print, and identify which generic checklist entries are actually applicable to this procurement.
Does delivery fall 21 days from PO or on 30.08.26, and is the sole destination NTPL Tuticorin FGD site or may BHEL direct delivery to Trichy stores? Provide the full consignee/site address for freight pricing.
Define the required 'leak proof joints category', flange mating/drilling details and acceptance test, because the specification sentence is incomplete and could materially affect design and price.
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.
The 21-day PO-to-site period includes manufacture, inspection, packing and transport, while witness-test notice must be given 10 days before inspection and dispatch cannot occur without MDCC. This leaves little recovery time.
Delay LD is 0.5% of delayed-quantity contract value per week or part thereof, capped at 10% of total contract value. For direct site dispatch, delay is reckoned to site acknowledgement, exposing the supplier to transit/site-receipt delays.
After an unremedied breach, BHEL may recover 10% of contract value as damages in addition to LD/debarment/termination, using bills or money under other BHEL contracts and legal recovery if security is insufficient.
Non-MSME payment is only after 90 days from site acknowledgement and no interest is payable on money due. Payment also depends on a complete documentation set and GST compliance.
Defects require free replacement for 18 months from supply or 12 months from commissioning, whichever occurs earlier; deviation can reject the offer.
Although unloading is BHEL's scope, no detention charges are payable if unloading is delayed at site. Freight pricing should include possible vehicle waiting time.
Price remains firm through execution, and tax/levy increases affecting deliveries beyond the agreed date for reasons not attributable to BHEL are for the vendor's account.
BHEL may cancel, hold or modify the tender at any execution stage if its customer's underlying order is cancelled, held or modified.
