Armoured Vehicles Nigam Limited AI-Assisted Battery Health Monitoring System for Lead Acid Batteries Tiruvallur Tamil Nadu 2025 Tender

Tender Overview

Armoured Vehicles Nigam Limited (AVNL), under the Department of Defence Production, invites bids for an AI-Assisted Battery Health Monitoring System for Lead Acid Batteries. The procurement is located in Tiruvallur, Tamil Nadu (600019). The project scope centers on a microprocessor-controlled battery monitoring solution with AI capabilities to assess health, charge/discharge cycles, and state of health for lead-acid packs. The offer must address vendor registration via vendor code creation and support payment through defined RTGS/Internet banking mechanisms. Bid security options include traditional PBG or Fixed Deposit Receipt (FDR). Minimum experience requirement of 7 years in designing/manufacturing similar systems is specified to ensure technical capability. Estimated value is not disclosed, but EMD is ₹58,384. This tender emphasizes high-reliability, embedded monitoring, and robust data analytics for critical defence-related lead-acid battery health management.

Key differentiators include the ability to accept online EMD payments, recognition of FDR as security, and a hard delivery timeline post-award (documented in the ATC). The procurement context suggests a focus on AV/NAV-grade battery health solutions with AI-driven diagnostics, targeting government defence production standards.
