Tender Overview

The tender is issued by Metnet : An E-governance Intra-imd Portal New Delhi for the India Meteorological Department (IMD) located in Patna, Bihar. The procurement concerns Rain Gauge, Non-Recording as per IS 5225 (Q3) within meteorology equipment. The document specifies eligibility criteria including three-year experience, turnover requirements, and risk controls. The buyer reserves option to adjust quantities up to 25%, with a defined delivery timeframe anchored to the original order, plus a calculated extension rule. The terms emphasize End User Certificate conformity, and a Malicious Code Certificate to prevent embedded malware. This item scope appears to target government-grade weather instrumentation supply with standard IS 5225 compatibility and secure software/firmware assurances.
