Tender Overview
The Indian Army under the Department Of Military Affairs invites bids for a broad range of office stationery and related supplies. The procurement enumerates 61 BoQ items including common stationery (envelopes, registers, paper, pens, tapes, clips), filing accessories, lamination materials, and cleaning items. The estimated scope appears broad, with a potential for quantity variation up to 25% and a need to submit quality samples as part of technical evaluation. The contract aims to equip administrative units with standardized, bulk-purchased items, highlighting delivery coordination and conformity checks. The absence of explicit location details suggests nationwide sourcing or a centralized distribution model, with ATC emphasis on sample-based qualification and adherence to purchaser QA requirements.
