Indian Army Laptop IOS based M5 chip Procurement 16GB RAM 512GB SSD 10 Core CPU 13.6" Liquid Retina 2026

Tender Overview

The Indian Army, Department Of Military Affairs, seeks a laptop solution described as an IOS based device with an M5 chip, 16 GB RAM, 512 GB SSD, 10-core CPU, 8-core GPU, and a 13.6" liquid retina display. The procurement includes relevant certifications and authorizations per the bid terms, with mandatory documents such as PAN, GSTIN, and EFT mandates. A key contract feature is the option clause allowing up to 25% quantity variation during and after execution, with delivery timelines tied to the original delivery period and extended periods calculating time proportional to quantity changes. The BOQ shows no predefined item list, indicating a flexible scope oriented to a single laptop specification or a tightly defined model family.

This tender emphasizes compliance with multiple certifications (ISO 9001, BIS/type tests) and requires OEM authorization where applicable. A material test certificate and supplier literature are mandatory for technical evaluation. The defense context implies stringent security, inspection at buyer’s end, and penalties for late delivery or non-conforming items, with LD charges and acceptance criteria driven by buyer lab results.
