Quoted percentage rates must be inclusive of all taxes/duties/levies including GST and labour cess; Clause 10CC not applicable; interim payment threshold Rs. 50,000.
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.

Average annual financial turnover of last 3 years ending 31st March of previous FY must be at least 50% of estimated cost; proven by CA certificate with UDIN.
Valid PAN; valid Electrical Contractor Licence (IE Rules / CEA 2010); GST registration or undertaking to obtain within one month of award / before payment.
Joint Ventures are not accepted; back-to-back execution of eligible similar works is prohibited on pain of forever debarment and EMD/PG forfeiture.
Near-relative and retired-gazetted-officer restrictions apply; canvassing leads to rejection; breach can debar from DOP tendering.
What is being procured: the work, supplies or services, deliverables and quantities, locations, phases, completion or delivery timelines, applicable standards, and notable exclusions.
Repairing/Replacement of wiring, fan/fittings and misc. electrical works in the residence of Chief PMG, Bihar Circle, Patna; site is stated as available.
Percentage-rate electrical internal/external works (EI & fans) as per Detailed Schedule of Quantities totaling Rs.4,37,313; contractor supplies materials (except any free issue from PESD Patna stores).
Execute within 5 days after completion of civil work from start date or site handover (whichever later); four progress milestones with 1% tendered-value withhold per failed milestone.
CPWD Electrical Specs Part-I Internal 2023, Part-II External 2023, Part-IV Substations 2013 (as amended) and CEA Safety Regulations 2010; contractor must carry earth, polarity, insulation and earth-continuity tests at own cost.
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.
Online e-tender on CPPP https://eprocure.gov.in/eprocure/app only; two electronic envelopes (Technical + Financial) submitted simultaneously.
ENVELOPE-1 Technical Bid: all listed docs except BoQ; ENVELOPE-2 Financial Bid: BoQ/percentage proforma only; technical opened first.
Valid Class III DSC with signing key usage required (general CPP instructions also mention Class II or III); all documents self-attested/digitally signed; upload PDF/XLS/JPEG.
Original EMD (if physical) to EE/AE inviting or any DOP EE office by bid end; L1 must submit certified copies of all scanned uploads to AE(E) PESD Patna within 7 days of financial bid opening.
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 tender folder contains only Tendernotice_1.pdf and BOQ_972273.xls; no corrigendum/addendum files are present, so original NIT values apply as written.
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.
General CPP instructions allow Class II or Class III DSC, while Information & Instructions require valid Class III with signing key usage — bidders should use Class III to satisfy the stricter NIT rule.
Affidavit formats differ on debarment scope: page 5/CPWD-6 list text says DOP-Civil wing or DOP forever; Form-6 clause 1.2.2 C text says debarred for bidding in CPWD forever — same obligation, inconsistent organisation name.
Most places fix validity as 75 days from last date of receipt of technical bid; clause 22 says “last date of receipt opening of technical bid” (garbled). Practical reading matches receipt/submission end date used elsewhere.
NIT is invited by AE(E), Postal Electrical Sub Division, Patna-800 001, but BOQ header names AE(Electrical), Postal Electrical Sub Division-I, Kolkata-700012 — submission/opening authority in operative NIT clauses is Patna.
Clause 24 threatens rejection if Integrity Pact not uploaded when EC ≥ Schedule-F threshold; Schedule F sets IEM/Integrity Pact applicability only when EC > Rs.3 Crores, while this ECPT is Rs.4.37 Lakh — Pact not required for this bid.
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 AE(E) for expected civil-work completion/handover window and whether the 5-day electrical period can start only after formal written handover, given start is also 7 days from LOA.
Seek written confirmation that bid opening authority and physical L1/EMD submission remain AE(E) PESD Patna despite BOQ showing PESD-I Kolkata.
Request site working hours, security clearances, restricted-area rules and multi-agency coordination expectations before pricing a 5-day programme.
Ask for the list/quantity of department materials to be issued free from PESD Patna stores and the issue rates used for double-recovery on non-return, since SOQ otherwise assumes contractor supply.
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.
Only 5 days after civil completion, with milestone withholds of 1% tendered value per missed milestone and compensation under Clause 2 fixed by SE(E) Bengaluru.
Electrical duration runs after civil completion or site handover; idle time after LOA/PG while waiting for civil finish is a commercial risk not cushioned by Clause 10CC (NA).
Tight forfeiture ladder on withdrawal, PG delay, upload/hard-copy mismatch, back-to-back violation (forever debarment), and reused UTR.
Rates must include GST, labour cess and all levies; extra tax claims can cause summary rejection; statutory recoveries from bills under GST regime.
Occupied VIP residence; multi-agency coordination; contractor-borne building damage repair; mandatory tests; 1-year guarantee plus 5-year LED manufacturer warranty coordination; no subletting.
Department may alter/delete quantities; deviation limit 50% for building work under Cl.12.2/12.3; free-issue store materials from PESD Patna must be returned or recovered at twice issue rate.
