Tender Overview
The procurement opportunity is issued by the Indian Army under the Department Of Military Affairs for a broad catalog of pharmaceuticals, endoscopy consumables, stents, bowel preparation solutions, and related medical devices. The estimated value is not disclosed, with an EMD of ₹3,198. Items include mesalamine, bowel preps, ERCP/colonoscopy accessories, stents, and gastritis/peptic ulcer therapies, intended for centralized supply. The tender emphasizes non-obsolescence, shelf-life viability, and OEM authorization where applicable. A primary differentiator is the requirement to maintain products with at least 3 years residual market life and to supply items with a minimum shelf-life balance on receipt. Unique clauses include sample testing during technical evaluation and strict LD penalties for late delivery. Location details are not specified in the summary data, but entries imply national-scale procurement with GST considerations and rate-contract placement.
