Status of approval of tenderer shall be reckoned as on the date of tender opening and not thereafter, unless it is a case of downgrading/ removal/ suspension/ banning.

Vendors approved for developmental ordering shall be eligible for developmental order of up to 20% of Net Procurable Quantity [NPQ] in regular tenders. When the vendor approving agency grades vendors under two categories, say, Part I and Part II categories, the developmental order on unapproved/untried firm can be up to 5% of NPQ within or outside NPQ. However, if the vendor approving agency grades vendors only under a single category (i.e. there is no system of approving the firms under two categories, say, Part I and Part II categories), developmental orders can be given up to 20% of NPQ on unapproved/untried firms within the NPQ. This will be subject to the procuring entity being prima-facie satisfied that such firms are capable of executing the order. Such firms must submit their credentials like Machinery & Plant, Testing facilities, QAP, Technical Manpower, Supply performance against earlier orders for same or similar items etc. along with their e-offer. Failure to submit such credentials as stated above will make the offer liable to be ignored. Such developmental order can be placed either after assessment of their capacity and capability by the source approving authority within 6 months of advice from the purchase authority or with the condition that bulk supply will start after approval of prototype by nominated agency as mentioned in the Purchase Order.
