All important dates as they stand after corrigenda: publication, pre-bid/clarification deadline, bid submission deadline, bid opening, and bid validity period.

Tender sale/download closes at 15:00 Hrs on 27/08/2026.
Online bid submission closes at 15:00 Hrs on 27/08/2026.

Bid remains valid for 4 (four) months from the date of opening of the Techno-Commercial part, unless otherwise mentioned.
Contract duration is 06 (Six) Months; completion is six months from site handover for supply, installation, testing and commissioning at all locations.
NIT leaves pre-bid as Applicable/Not Applicable without a selected option or date; SCC-T nonetheless makes site visit and pre-bid mandatory on pain of technical disqualification.
Tender value or estimated cost, EMD/bid security (amount, acceptable forms, validity), tender document fees, performance security, and key payment terms.
Total estimated value is Rs. 8,42,512.60 (Eight Lac Forty-Two Thousand Five Hundred Twelve and Paise Sixty Only).
Tender documents can be downloaded free of charge from www.iocletenders.nic.in.
EMD is Applicable at Rs. 50,000.00 (Rupees Fifty Thousand Only); for this amount (up to Rs. 1 Lakh) Indian bidders must pay online on the IOCL e-tender portal.
Security Deposit is 10% of Total Contract Value (ISD 2.5% within 10 days of Acceptance of Tender + 10% retention from each bill until full SD, or full 10% BG/ISB in advance).
Payment terms are as per GCC: on-account Running Account Bills during progress, and Final Bill payment within 90 days of Engineer-in-Charge certification.
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.
Open two-bid domestic competitive bidding works contract on iocletenders.nic.in; foreign bidders and joint/consortium bids are not permitted unless specifically allowed (not allowed here).
Minimum Annual Turnover Rs. 5.97 Lakh (standalone financials of bidding entity) during any of the three preceding financial years i.e. April 1, 2022 onwards.
In last seven years ending last day of month previous to original bid submission end date: 3 similar works ≥ Rs. 2.99 Lakh each OR 2 ≥ Rs. 3.98 Lakh each OR 1 ≥ Rs. 4.98 Lakh (values inclusive of service tax/GST).
PF Code, GSTIN, Independent ESI (or Form-F undertaking), PAN, incorporation/partnership/proprietorship proof, and bid-signatory authority are required; PF/ESI pre-bid possession is not relaxed because estimated value exceeds Rs. 5 Lakh.
Purchase Preference to MSEs is Not Applicable; Startup experience relaxation depends on Critical/Non-Critical selection which is not marked; Startups may seek EMD exemption with DPIIT certificate.
Holiday-listed bidders, forged/false documents, incomplete PQC, insolvency under IBC, and multiple disqualifying conduct grounds make the bid liable for rejection.
What is being procured: the work, supplies or services, deliverables and quantities, locations, phases, completion or delivery timelines, applicable standards, and notable exclusions.
Turnkey design, supply, installation, testing, commissioning and integration of a single centralized monitoring platform for distributed Solar PV systems at IOCL Bongaigaon Refinery, Assam.
End-to-end scope covers field edge devices at each plant, telemetry/connectivity, centralized SCADA/EMS/IoT platform, analytics/dashboards/alerts/MIS, and related cabling/enclosures.
SOR RFQ Item 00010 package totals Rs. 8,42,512.60 and includes dataloggers, enclosures, converters, software customization and expert visits.
Existing functional inverters/energy meters are to be reused; faulty existing plant hardware replacement is excluded unless stated; Owner provides free electricity/water, auxiliary power points, and work permits.
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.
Two-part e-bid only on www.iocletenders.nic.in / https://iocletenders.nic.in with Digital Signature; physical bids not accepted.
Proposal Forms and formats must be filled, signed, stamped, scanned and uploaded unchanged; only physical original contemplated is offline EMD BG/ISB (not needed for online EMD of Rs. 50,000).
Upload proof of authority matching entity type (proprietorship undertaking / POA+partnership deed / Board Resolution or POA+BR / Society resolution).
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.
One date-extension corrigendum extended sale, submission and opening dates; all other NIT terms remain unchanged.
Final key dates: NIT 06.08.2026; sale & bid submission till 15:00 Hrs 27/08/2026; techno-commercial opening 15:00 Hrs 28/08/2026; bid validity 4 months from techno-commercial opening; all other commercial/technical terms as in original tender documents.
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.
SCC-T makes site visit and pre-bid mandatory with technical disqualification for non-attendance, while NIT leaves pre-bid as Applicable/Not Applicable with no date/time and Corrigendum 1 is silent.
Scope text repeatedly refers to 30 distributed Solar PV plants/locations, but SOR quantities for dataloggers and enclosures are 31 each.
Several NIT binary fields remain printed as both options without a clear strike-through: EMD has an amount so is effectively Applicable; Critical/Non-Critical, Reverse Auction, PPP-MII Yes/No, ARC/AMC, Splittable/Non-splittable remain ambiguous.
Documents stack multiple warranty/support periods: min 1-year product replacement; device warranty/support free during 6-month contract; 5-year cloud portal license; plus GCC 12-month Defect Liability Period.
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 IOCL to confirm whether SCC-T Cl. 8.0 mandatory pre-bid/site visit still applies, and if so the exact date, time, venue, registration process and acceptable attendance evidence.
Seek clarification whether SOR qty 31 includes a spare/central unit or is a typographical excess over the 30 plants described in scope.
Request make/model/protocol list and available ports for inverters, energy meters and WMS at all plants, and confirm whether any plant lacks a usable RS-485/Modbus/Ethernet interface.
Ask for mandatory API/payload specifications, who provides credentials, and objective acceptance tests for 'seamless' integration to IOCL-Intello, Webdyne and kaco portals.
Confirm whether 5-year free cloud/portal service runs from supply/commissioning, and how it interacts with 6-month contract period warranty and 12-month GCC DLP (including on-site visit cost responsibility after completion).
Request IOCL to confirm Critical vs Non-Critical classification for Startup PQC relaxation, and whether Reverse Auction / PPP-MII preferential evaluation applies.
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.
GCC price adjustment/discount for late Mechanical/Final Completion escalates weekly to a maximum 5% of Total Contract Value (expressly not labelled LD/penalty but functions as delay deduction).
SCC-T threatens technical disqualification for non-attendance at a mandatory pre-bid/site visit that has no published date in NIT/corrigendum.
Work is inside operating refinery/township under IOCL permit and safety regime; Sunday/holiday/night work may be required with no extra payment; safety violation penalties apply.
SOR requires future portal parameter customization, repair/replacement of supplied devices, and all on-site support visits during contract period without financial implication to IOCL; plus free portal charges and 5-year license.
ISD 2.5% within 10 days of Acceptance plus 10% bill retention to build 10% SD; Final Bill paid within 90 days of certification; no mobilization advance.
Scope requires robust cybersecurity with end-to-end encryption and 'zero vulnerability to the core Refinery network' — absolute wording increases compliance and liability exposure.
Complete PQC documents must be uploaded with offer; failure is summary rejection; holiday listing, forged documents and IBC insolvency are hard rejects; consortium/JV not allowed.
The inviting authority and relevant contacts: office, person, designation, address, phone and email — and which address receives physical submissions, if any.
