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 (instructions also refer eprocurement.gov.in/eprocuremes); only electronic bids accepted—no email/fax/hand/post bids.
Original physical tender-cost DD and EMD (as applicable) must reach Accepting Officer within 07 days of bid submission end; original Integrity Pact (each page signed) by post; other hard copies of uploaded documents before fixed time.
Upload with valid DSC; Power of Attorney (or sole-proprietor affidavit) required for the DSC holder; fresh POA specifically covering arbitration binding authority unless already granted.
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.
Critical bid dates were extended five times in writing from the original path (start 18 Jun / end 25 Jun / Cover-I open 02 Jul 2026) to final written values: start 03 Aug 2026 1000 hrs, end 10 Aug 2026 1800 hrs, Cover-I open 17 Aug 2026 1800 hrs.
Architectural/site drawings CEPZ-S-434-26 (2 sheets), CEPZ-WD-AR-585-26 (3 sheets) and structural CEPZ-WD-ST-585 / 585(i) issued as tender drawings corrigendum attachments.
Large set of typical detail (TD) drawings issued (manhole, valve pit, septic/signage, skirting/dado, steel box windows, PVC doors, tank staging, soil/waste pipes, mirror, architectural notes, STD-207/208, etc.).
A Bid Auto Extension corrigendum is listed as published 10 Aug 2026, but no PDF/attachment is present in this document set—so any further movement of submission/opening dates beyond Corrigendum 05 cannot be verified from files here.
Commercial/eligibility/scope terms remain as original tender (no textual commercial corrigendum found). Latest written critical dates: bid start 03 Aug 2026 1000 hrs; bid end 10 Aug 2026 1800 hrs; Cover-I open 17 Aug 2026 1800 hrs—subject to any portal auto-extension. Drawings as issued on 27 Jul 2026 form part of tender.
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.
Appendix A states main project period 06 months, but Schedule A Phase I allows 90 days for DPR from site handover and Phase II allows 06 months from Phase I completion (~9 months construction path). Page 24 Note 1.2 also says entire work excluding M&O/CM completes in 06 months from site handover under Phase II—conflicting with Phase II starting after Phase I.
NIT quotes 96 months manning/operation & comprehensive maintenance (total 102 months), but adding Phase III–VIII durations (12+12+11+11+11+3) yields 60 months after Phase II.
Tender title/NIT name Bhaduriya Complex, but Schedule A Part-I places 75 KLD at Vijender Vihar Md Accn and 50 KLD at Unit 2/1 GR under GE (South) Pathankot.
Appendix A portal is www.defproc.gov.in, while Annexure-II instructs upload on eprocurement.gov.in; NHEA appeal emails differ between NIT Para 14 ([email protected], Chandimandir) and Appendix A Note 12 ([email protected], Chandigarh).
Forwarding letterhead shows Civil 0186-2256361 while Appendix A Accepting Officer block shows Tele 0186-2235863.
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 Phase II’s 6 months runs from Phase I DPR approval (as Sch A 2.1) or from site handover (as Sch A 1.2/NIT 6 months), and from when compensation for delay under IAFW-2249 will be levied.
Is the paid M&O/CM period 96 months as NIT, or the Phase III–VIII sum (60 months), and how do BOQ items 48–57 map to each phase year?
Confirm GPS/site identity of Vijender Vihar Md Accn (75 KLD) and Unit 2/1 GR (50 KLD) vis-à-vis Bhaduriya Complex, distance between sites, and working-hour/pass regimes that will apply.
PQC requires similar work to include both laying of sewer network and construction of STP—please confirm whether pure package-STP CAPEX without external sewer network will be accepted, given this tender’s package FRP STPs.
Confirm whether the STP efficiency retention (2.5% of items 1–6 enhanced 25%, min ₹2.5 Lakh till Phase VIII) is in addition to 5% Performance Security held to Phase VIII DLP+60 days, and the refund mechanics/interest.
Please furnish or confirm Condition 50 (compensation for delay) rate/cap and other standard GCC monetary clauses since IAFW-2249 is not enclosed with the tender PDFs.
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.
5% Performance Security must stay valid through Phase-VIII DLP + 60 days, and an extra efficiency retention (2.5% of STP/SCADA/LT items +25%, min ₹2.5 Lakh) is held until Phase VIII ends—very long cash lock for a 420 Lakh-class job.
Contractor must ascertain raw sewage, design any technology, achieve tight CPCB-2026 limits (BOD/TSS <10, fecal coliform Nil, etc.), IIT/NIT-vet designs, and correct failures at own cost; drawings/BOQ are only guidance.
Work lies in restricted area: gate/timing/search controls, identity passes, no extra for man-hours lost; water/power continuity not guaranteed and no compensation for intermittent supply.
L1 revocation or upward revision after Cover-2 opening costs EMD-equivalent and bars firm from subsequent calls; missing physical DD/EMD in 7 days can kill Cover-2 (un-enlisted) or trigger 6-month MES-wide bar; quoting old BOQ is non-bonafide.
DLP of 24 months on Phase II includes comprehensive maintenance with nothing extra payable, yet contractor remains responsible for repairs/replacements including membranes—cost must be priced into capital/O&M rates carefully amid phase/BOQ ambiguity.
IAFW-2249 GCC (including standard delay compensation) not enclosed—must be inspected offline. Accepting Officer may reject T-bids even of eligible class contractors; public undertaking price preference possible; lowest bid need not be accepted.
All-inclusive rates (GST, cess, royalties, octroi, etc.); only percentage taxes directly related to contract value get reimbursement/refund for rate changes after last bid due date—other tax changes sit with contractor.
The inviting authority and relevant contacts: office, person, designation, address, phone and email — and which address receives physical submissions, if any.
Chief Engineer, Headquarters Chief Engineer Pathankot Zone, Military Engineer Services, Pathankot-145001.
GE (South) Pathankot — executing agency; contact GE for site inspection appointment and restricted-area entry arrangements.
Appeal on non-validation of T-bid to Chief Engineer Western Command before scheduled Cover-2 opening (email addresses differ across pages—see contradictions).
