GeM Bid Details state Bid Offer Validity as 30 days from Bid End Date; ATC separately requires 150 days — treat as conflicting (see contradictions).
Tender value or estimated cost, EMD/bid security (amount, acceptable forms, validity), tender document fees, performance security, and key payment terms.
No tender estimated cost or bid value is stated in the tender documents.
GeM Bid Details state EMD Required: No. ATC Part I table states EMD Required: Yes, but gives no amount or instrument details.
No tender fee is prescribed; GeM disclaimer treats asking for tender/bid participation fee as an invalid ATC practice.
GeM Bid requires ePBG of 3.00% for 38 months via Advisory Bank State Bank of India; ATC table instead states EPBG 2% of Bid Value.
Payment is after full delivery/installation and Board of Officers acceptance, with CRAC/invoice on GeM; AMC is paid quarterly offline after each satisfactory AMC period.
AMC is mandatory: 4 years post-warranty, charged as % of equipment cost, paid quarterly; product section caps AMC at 3%–25%, while general AMC clause text says 3%–50%.
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.
Minimum average annual turnover of the bidder for 3 years is 3.5 Lakh(s), validated from GeM-verified turnover data (no separate turnover upload).
Experience Criteria documents are required, and ATC asks for an Experience Certificate on similar project/work, but no minimum years, value or number of past supplies is quantified.
Only Simulator Development Division–approved simulator and software will be accepted; bid-specific Manufacturer Authorisation Form (MAF)/OEM Authorization Certificate is required.
Participation is allowed only from Class 1 / Class 2 local suppliers; non-local suppliers are not eligible (eligible MSEs still allowed as per concurrent MSE-MII guidance).
MSE purchase preference is enabled: eligible MSE OEMs/service providers within L1+15% may match L1 for 25% of quantity (traders/resellers excluded from MSE preference).
Any bidder from a country sharing a land border with India is eligible only if registered with the Competent Authority; false declaration is ground for immediate termination and legal action.
Seller must not be under liquidation, court receivership or similar proceedings / bankrupt; assignment or subcontracting needs prior written buyer consent.
No consortium or joint-venture eligibility rules are specified in the tender documents.
What is being procured: the work, supplies or services, deliverables and quantities, locations, phases, completion or delivery timelines, applicable standards, and notable exclusions.
Procurement of 01 x Virtual Reality Based Multimode Driving Simulator (1 set) for 145 Lt AD Regt (SP) out of MOLTI fund for FY 2026-27.
One complete simulator package including computing hardware, display, controls, VR headset accessories, power/network items, transportation, training and 4-year AMC post extended warranty.
Delivery, installation and commissioning at CO, 145 Lt AD Regt (SP), Nasirabad Military Station (Rajasthan) / Ajmer address, PIN-926145, C/o 56 APO.
GeM consignee schedule allows 90 delivery days; ATC Part II requires delivery, installation & commissioning within 15 days of Supply Order/CA — conflicting timelines.
Bid AMC section specifies 3-year product warranty plus 4-year quarterly AMC; ATC and Appendix B state multiple different warranty periods (1 or 2 or 3 years).
Inspection required: Buyer’s Board of Officers; bid marks Type of Inspection as Post Dispatch, with Auto CRAC Days 21; ATC also provides for post-receipt inspection before 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.
Online two-packet bid on GeM Portal; quotations/bids uploaded in digital form for the purchase item.
Appendix A acceptance letter must be on company letter head with signature of the bidder and official seal; Appendix B self-certification requires tenderer signature and witness details at delivery.
Offer is liable to rejection if certificates/documents sought in Bid, ATC or corrigendum are not uploaded.
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 workspace documents contain no corrigendum or addendum file, and tender metadata lists an empty corrigenda array.
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 Bid Details fix validity at 30 days from end date; ATC Bid Details and Part I para 8 require 150 days.
Bid EMD Detail says Required No; ATC Part I table says EMD Required Yes without amount.
Bid ePBG is 3.00% for 38 months (SBI advisory bank); ATC table states EPBG Details (2% of Bid Value).
GeM consignee schedule shows 90 delivery days; ATC requires delivery, installation and commissioning within 15 days of SO/CA.
Bid AMC section: 3-year warranty. ATC states three-year service warranty, one-year from installation, two years from delivery, and one year from BOO acceptance; Appendix B self-certifies two years.
Product AMC parameters set Maximum Percentage 25%; general Additional Clause for AMC says range 3 to 50%.
ATC quantum of LD is 0.5%/week capped at 10% of undelivered goods; GeM GTC LD is 0.5% of delayed quantity value per week, not exceeding 5% of total contract value, or 10% in inordinate delay.
ATC contains stray clauses that appear copied from other procurements (construction drawings; 'Smart Skill Driver Training...'; FY 2025-26 vs 2026-27).
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.
Is the required bid offer validity 30 days (GeM Bid Details) or 150 days (ATC)? Will a 30-day validity bid be rejected?
Does EMD apply despite Bid Details 'Required No'? If ATC 'Yes' is intended, what is the exact amount, form and validity?
Will contractual delivery/installation be 90 days (GeM schedule) or 15 days from SO/CA (ATC)?
What is the process, timeline and documentary evidence required to prove the offered simulator/software is Simulator Development Division–approved?
What minimum years/value/number of similar driving-simulator supplies will TEC apply when evaluating the Experience Certificate?
Confirm whether warranty is 3 years (bid AMC section), 2 years (ATC/Appendix B), or 1 year (other ATC clauses), and the start trigger (delivery vs installation vs BOO acceptance).
Confirm whether performance security is 3% for 38 months or 2%, and whether AMC quotes must stay within 3–25% or may go up to 50%.
Is the ATC Part V site visit to 145 Lt AD Regt (SP) before uploading the bid mandatory, and how is access arranged at Nasirabad Military Station?
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.
If ATC’s 15-day delivery/install/commissioning is enforced, delay LD of 0.5%/week applies, with ATC cap 10% of undelivered goods and GTC caps of 5%/10% of contract value.
No advance is stated; payment follows complete delivery/execution, BOO acceptance, CRV/CRAC and PBG verification.
BOO inspection is final; non-conforming supply can cancel the Supply Order and forfeit Performance Guarantee; rejected goods demurrage 0.5% of contract value per day after 48 hours, destruction after one month.
Buyer option clause up to +50% of contracted quantity at same rates; tolerance clause ±50% quantity without price change.
Only Simulator Development Division–approved simulator/software is accepted, plus bid-specific MAF — high barrier and single-source risk if approval path is unclear.
ePBG duration 38 months aligns with ~3-year warranty; separate 2.5% AMC PBG for AMC period + 1 year creates prolonged bank-limit blockage.
Multiple conflicting warranty/EMD/delivery clauses and leftover construction/other-tender text increase dispute risk after award.
Documents uploaded by bidders (and clarification submissions) are shown to other participating bidders after login — confidentiality risk for pricing strategy annexures and technical know-how.
The inviting authority and relevant contacts: office, person, designation, address, phone and email — and which address receives physical submissions, if any.
