The procurement scope is shaped by a flexible quantity framework (option clause up to 50% increase/decrease) and a delivery timeline linked to the original order terms. The unique requirement emphasizes in-house and outsourced manufacturing capabilities, with emphasis on precision machining and rigorous inspection. This tender has stringent pre-qualification measures centered on VRRF and SAF registration, ensuring only capable vendors participate. A notable emphasis is placed on dimensional inspection, CMM availability, and NABL-accredited testing facilities. Precise drawing-driven production will be critical, and the absence of a BOQ further underscores the need for exact compliance to provided drawings and standards.
