The procurement is issued by the Urban Development And Urban Housing Department Gujarat for a Surveillance Drone / Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (V2) program in NARMADA, GUJARAT 391111. Scope includes UAV Bird (Drone), a Ground Control Station (GCS) software with payload operation control, and GCS compatible hardware. Key compliance points reference the Drone Rules, 2021 Type Certificate classifications and a requirement for an Industrial License from MoCI/DPIIT under the Industries Act. The tender anticipates delivery with flexibility for a 25% quantity variation, and an EMD of ₹22,000. The project emphasizes camera and thermal payload housing availability and the need for GCS to manage payload operations. The absence of a BOQ suggests a broad supply scope opportunity and potential multiple item variants within the drone category.
