Tender Overview
The Indian Army invites a supply-only tender for a set of automotive power and propulsion components including CHANGE OVER SWITCH, VOLTAGE REGULATOR, MOTOR CAPACITOR, FUEL PUMP, COUPLING, and PISTON for delivery to POONCH, JAMMU & KASHMIR – 185101. The bid scope is constrained to the supply of goods with a defined warranty of 1 year from final acceptance or post-installation if applicable, and requires OEM warranty certificates at delivery. An important qualifier is the option clause allowing a quantity fluctuation of up to 25% during contract execution with delivery extension rules. The contract emphasizes a robust after-sales presence with established service centers in INDIA and on-site commissioning/training as needed. The estimated value and itemized quantities are not disclosed, but the contract is configured for bulk supply within the specified category. Unique tender facets include the option-driven quantity adjustments and a mandatory certification-upload requirement to avoid bid rejection. This tender reflects the Army’s emphasis on reliable, ISO/IS standards-compliant automotive components and comprehensive post-sales support.
