Upgradation of ZU 23MM 2B Gun System for Counter-UAS interdiction capability — 24 modular portable systems for 15 Corps Zone under OCPP capital procurement.

Compliance to NCQR/tech specs with BIS and/or NABL/Govt/international lab certifications; ATP within 30 days of contract; ATB/user trials for acceptance.
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-packet online bid on GeM under bidder digital signature; technical evaluation first, then commercial; reverse auction among technically qualified bidders (H1 elimination rule).
Online DSC signing on GeM; Integrity Pact on behalf of CEO; local-content and eligibility declarations by authorised signatory/PoA as specified; OEM undertakings where OEM takes onus.
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 downloaded tender pack contains no corrigendum or addendum file; original GeM bid and ATC values therefore still apply.
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.
ATC Para 59 says buyer will provide L-70 guns in situ, while the entire tender title, SOR and tech specs are for ZU 23MM 2B gun system upgradation.
Bid details set MSE preference quantity at 25%, but Buyer Added clause 27 awards 50% of total value on MSE matching.
ATC payment terms say annual CMC payments; GeM CMC additional clauses say quarterly after end-user certification.
GeM CMC min/max percentages are 3% and 25%, while a bid warranty clause caps CMC at not more than 8% of contract price per annum.
Main bid applies DPIIT Make-in-India Class-I/II rules (50%/20% LC), but clause 28 imports MoP&NG PP-LC Policy treating ≤20% LC as non-local and modifying the MII clause.
ATC requires physical EMD within 5 days of Bid End Date and validity 90 days beyond bid validity; GeM GTC requires hard copy within 5 working days of bid opening and states validity 45 days beyond bid validity.

Technical specifications header cites FY 2025-26 while ATC header cites FY 2026-27 for the same OCPP project code heads.
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 delete or correct ATC Para 59 'L-70 guns' language and confirm exact gun variant, interfaces and in-situ access conditions at Anantnag/15 Corps locations.
Request written ruling on the MSE matched-quantity percentage used at award.
Clarify whether CMC quotes must be ≤8% p.a., how the 3–25% GeM fields interact, and whether CMC invoices are annual (ATC/clause 21) or quarterly (CMC additional clause).
Confirm exact receiving office at CDA/PCDA Jammu, whether calendar or working days apply, and whether GTC '5 working days from bid opening' is waived by ATC '5 days from Bid End Date'.
Ask what minimum hardware constitutes the mandatory TEC sample, where/when to present it, security clearances for bringing RF/jammer/spoofer equipment, and whether OEM lab demos can substitute any physical checks.
Seek interface control details: mechanical mount only vs fire-control/cueing integration, safety interlocks, ammunition/firing trials responsibility, and acceptance metrics for hard-kill path.
Ask buyer to strike or confirm clause 28, given this is a MoD/Indian Army GeM goods bid already filtered to Class-I/II under DPIIT MII.
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.
EMD of INR 3.84 crore and 5% PBG for ~26 months (plus later 5% of CMC value) create large balance-sheet and bank-limit exposure.
LD 0.5% of delayed price per week, capped at 5% (10% for inordinate delay >25% of delivery period); contract terminable after 7 weeks delay or >50% of scheduled DP, whichever earlier.
2-year comprehensive onsite warranty plus 5-year CMC with 98% serviceability, 48-hour response, ≤5-day repair TAT and high-altitude Anantnag deployment.
Fall clause, Integrity Pact sanctions (forfeiture of securities without assigning reason, debarment), agent-commission prohibitions and abnormally-low-bid challenge rights favour the buyer.
Stringent multi-band detect/jam/spoof QRs, TEC sample, ATB field evaluation and comparison to sealed TEC sample create high fail-out risk after bid commitment.
RCM applicable with 18% GST and 18% cess fields; sellers forced to zero GST in certain GST-registration situations while buyer pays RCM — quotation and invoicing errors can stall payment.
The inviting authority and relevant contacts: office, person, designation, address, phone and email — and which address receives physical submissions, if any.
Ministry of Defence — Department of Military Affairs — Indian Army; buyer office name masked in GeM bid; procurement linked to HQ Northern Command / 15 Corps Zone.
HOD grievance email [email protected]; Buyer email [email protected].
Physical EMD (where applicable) to be deposited at CDA/PCDA Jammu within 5 days of Bid End Date; no other physical bid-box submission (manual tender box Not Applicable).
