Eastern Coalfields Limited AMC/CMC for IKA C2000 Bomb Calorimeter Tender 2026 Asansol Jhanjra India

Tender Overview

Eastern Coalfields Limited invites bids for an Annual Maintenance Contract (AMC/CMC) for the IKA C2000 bomb calorimeter. The estimated contract value is ₹129,800 with flexible quantity/duration under an option clause of ±25% at issuance. The procurement follows Make in India with a class 1 local supplier requirement of at least 50% local content, and mandatory OEM certification disclosures. The bid supports a PBG/EMD submission mechanism via DD payable at Asansol, with bidders potentially benefiting from MSE preferences. This tender targets specialized service for pre-owned lab equipment maintenance, emphasizing OEM-aligned maintenance capability and timely service delivery across the contractual term. The absence of a BOQ indicates the focus is on service quality, response times, and warranty terms rather than single-item buy rates. The procurement context is government-led equipment upkeep for a coal sector lab environment, stressing compliance with central public procurement norms and local-content disclosures.

Key differentiators include the Make in India preference, OEM-local content certification submission, and the 25% quantity/duration amendment window pre- and post-contract award, which bidders should plan for in project scoping and resourcing.
