Tender Overview
Alloy Steel Plant, under the Steel Authority of India Limited, seeks provisioning of Phones/Endpoint for EPABX System at BARDHAMAN, WEST BENGAL. The tender specifies an add-on purchase category (Q2) for EPABX endpoints and consoles, with an undefined estimated value. An important bidder clause allows a quantity variation up to 25% of bid quantity and also up to 25% during contract currency at contracted rates. Delivery timelines hinge on the last date of the original delivery order, with a minimum extension rule. This procurement features a risk of supply disruption fallback and a bid security declaration requirement, signaling strict compliance expectations. The buyer details imply an internal ASP store acceptance workflow and post-receipt inspection, which can affect delivery scheduling and acceptance. Unique terms include a risk-purchase remedy at buyer option and a non-substitution of contract terms without formal amendment. The absence of BOQ items indicates a potentially service- or equipment-agnostic framework, focusing on EPABX endpoint provision and warranty considerations.
