Procurement of Steel Almirah / Cabinets (V4) (Q2) — total quantity 190 pieces; scope is only supply of Goods.
ATC specification for Almirah Steel Large 1980 mm x 920 mm x 505 mm (±5 mm), generally conforming to IS 3312:2021; ATC overrides conflicting GeM category dimensions.
Consignee Sunil Shankarrao Ramlod, 795002, Mantripukhri, Imphal — quantity 190 — delivery within 90 days.
Pre-dispatch inspection of sample items at HQ DGAR (Shillong, Laitkor) within 15 days of SO; bulk dispatch only after approval; post-receipt inspection by independent Board of Officers at consignee location.
Warranty 1 year from final acceptance (or after installation/commissioning/testing if included); product/spares minimum 3 years residual/usable shelf life on supply date; OEM warranty certificates at delivery.

Two Packet Bid on GeM; all required documents must be uploaded on GeM portal before bid closing date/time — no post-dated correspondence entertained.
All bid documents along with ATC must be signed and uploaded; unsigned pack risks rejection. Bidder-signed copy of ATC technical specifications is mandatory for all participating bidders.

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.
GeM category technical specs list Large almirah as 1855 mm x 910 mm x 480 mm, while Buyer ATC specification/drawing pack requires 1980 mm x 920 mm x 505 mm. ATC conflict clause says ATC specification is final.

Financial Criteria cl. 20 requires OEM net worth positive as per last audited statement, while Buyer ATC cl. 9 requires bidders to submit Net worth certificate for FY 2025-26 or face technical disqualification — both appear cumulative, not alternatives.
Standard past performance clause requires supply of 40% of bid quantity in any one of last 3 FYs; Certificates cl. 25 additionally says 'Performance of 40% Qty and Bid Value in subject bid' — broader than quantity-only wording.
Buyer EMD clauses say hardcopy within 5 days of Bid End date / Bid Opening date; GeM GTC says within 5 working days of bid opening.
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 buyer to expressly confirm that offer/evaluation will use ATC 1980x920x505 mm wardrobe specification and attached drawings, not GeM category Large 1855x910x480 mm values.
Seek written clarification whether past performance is only 40% of bid quantity or also 40% of subject bid value, and what documentary threshold will be applied at technical evaluation.
Clarify whether both OEM positive net-worth (last audited) and bidder FY 2025-26 net-worth certificate are mandatory, and what is accepted if FY 2025-26 audit is not yet closed by bid end (21-09-2026).
Confirm exact sample quantity, who bears freight/sample cost, pass/fail criteria against ATC drawings, and whether bulk production may start only after PDI approval at HQ DGAR Shillong within 15 days of SO.
Confirm whether warranty is on-site (service-centre clause N/A) or carry-in requiring a functional service centre in Manipur within 30 days, given consignee at Imphal West.
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.
LD @ 0.5% of contract value of delayed quantity per week (or part), capped at 5% normally and up to 10% for inordinate delay (>25% of completion period).
Defect rectification must complete within 5 days of notice; delay penalty 0.5% of unit price per week, recoverable from PBG; cumulative warranty penalty cap 10% of total contract value, after which buyer may get rectification from alternate sources at seller risk/cost and forfeit PBG.
90-day delivery for 190 almirahs to Mantripukhri, Imphal, with sample PDI at HQ DGAR Shillong within 15 days of SO and bulk only after approval — logistics and Northeast delivery risk are material.
Buyer may vary ordered quantity by up to ±25% at placement and increase up to +25% during currency at contracted rates, with formula-based extra delivery time (min 30 days unless original DP <30).
Buyer may terminate for material non-compliance, inability/failure to deliver or rectify within DP, bankruptcy/liquidation/assignment, or misrepresentation relied upon for the PO.
INR 1.5 lakh EMD plus 3% ePBG for 12 months; EMD forfeitable for bid withdrawal/false documents/failure to furnish PBG; payments due only after PBG verification; short physical-submission windows.
High DQ risk from: bid-specific OEM authorisation only (no general OA), signed ATC specs mandatory, FY 2025-26 net-worth certificate, completion reports only for experience, test reports ≤1 year old, and no post-bid document curing.
If bidder does not represent/clarify any clause, participation is treated as full agreement to all bid conditions — limits later challenge to onerous ATC terms.
Bidders must self-check GST; reimbursement lower of actuals or quoted GST %; statutory GST variation before bid end is seller's account under GTC.
