Tender Overview
The Indian Army (Department of Military Affairs) issues a procurement opportunity for multiple mechanical spares including AIR PRESSURE PIPE, FIELD COIL, PASSENGER DRIVER FAN 24V, O RING, DOOR LOCK LH/RH, CABLE ASSEMBLY CONTROL, CLUTCH PLATE, and ENGINE MOUNTING REAR. The BOQ lists 9 items, with no explicit quantity or value disclosed. Key differentiators include an ADVANCE SAMPLE REQUIRED PRIOR OPENING TECHNICAL BID and an OEM/Authorized Seller requirement for imported items to have a registered Indian office for after-sales support. An option clause allows quantity variation up to 25% with adjusted delivery timing rules tied to the original delivery period. Delivery strategy pivots on the last date of the original order, with a minimum 30-day extension rule. The tender emphasizes compliance with conditional terms rather than specific product specs.
The tender presents a broad, supply-chain focused opportunity for vendors capable of delivering standard spare parts with OEM-backed after-sales service. The absence of detailed specifications signals bidders should prepare generic yet compliant technical documentation and demonstrate ability to meet OEM requirements and delivery flexibility under military procurement processes. Unique aspects include advance sampling and the 25% quantity option during and after contract award.
Keywords and context: tender in India Army spares, SBI procurement style, and government supply of automotive/military spares with OEM support.
