Tender Overview

The Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO), Department of Space, seeks Optical Time Domain Reflectometer (OTDR) equipment for supply in Hassan, Karnataka. The tender indicates a Supply of Goods scope with no BOQ quantities published. The category is OTDR (Q3), underscoring a mid-to-high tier instrument requirement. The buyer reserves a 25% quantity variation during both initial and currency periods, with a calculation-based extension of delivery time. This option clause emphasizes flexibility in order size but imposes delivery timing aligned to last delivery order date. The procurement focuses on a standalone goods supply contract rather than services or installation. The absence of start/end dates and estimated value necessitates bidders to prepare standard bid logistics and confirm deliverables, warranty, and support terms during bid submission. A unique aspect is the explicit option clause governing quantity changes and corresponding delivery timelines, affecting scheduling and pricing dynamics. Overall, the tender targets ISRO’s need for OTDR equipment with scalable quantities and clearly defined delivery logic.
