Mahatma Gandhi Government Arts College Mahe Multifunction Machine MFM (V2) Tender Puducherry 2025

Tender Overview

Mahatma Gandhi Government Arts College Mahe, operating under the Higher And Technical Education Department Puducherry, seeks procurement of a Multifunction Machine MFM (V2). The tender scope focuses on a single device category with a potential for quantity adjustments up to 25% of the bid quantity and contract quantity, at contracted rates. The bidder must demonstrate adequate financial capability (three-year turnover) and OEM turnover criteria, with service support obligations in the buyer’s state. This opportunity arises in the Puducherry region for government procurement of a high-utility office device, with emphasis on after-sales service readiness and compliance with continuous delivery terms. The inclusion of an OEM turnover clause and service-center requirements distinguishes this tender from standard equipment procurements and signals strict financial and support obligations for bidders. The absence of BOQ specifications indicates a flexible approach to supplier capability while maintaining core governance around delivery, warranty, and post-sale service.
