The Council Of Scientific And Industrial Research (csir) invites bids for a customized AMC/CMC service contract covering a pre-owned single crystal X-ray diffractometer, specifically the Bruker AXS D8 QUEST SCD SYSTEM. The contract is structured as a Six-Monthly AMC with a proposed estimated value around ₹3,75,000. Location and start/end dates are not specified, but this procurement targets ongoing maintenance for high-precision XRD equipment used in structural chemistry and materials science. The tender emphasizes OEM authorization and non-transferable obligations, ensuring service providers are capable of delivering timely, device-specific maintenance and parts replacement within a defined SLA window.
