Indian Army Piston Assembly & Gasket Procurement Kangra Himachal Pradesh 2026 - IS Standards ISI/AAA/TRTL 2026

Tender Overview

The Indian Army, Department Of Military Affairs, seeks procurement in Kangra, Himachal Pradesh (176001) for multiple engine consumable components including piston assembly, tappet gasket, oil filter, air filter, and cylinder head gasket. The BOQ lists five items with unspecified quantities and values, indicating an indeterminate scope pending finalization. An Option Clause allows a +/- 25% quantity adjustment at contract award and during the contract term at the same rates, with a delivery period linked to the last delivery order date. This tender lacks explicit start/end dates and an estimated value, but signals a broad engine-component procurement exercised via government contract channels.

Key differentiators include the flexible quantity clause and the prohibition on fixed delivery windows until the option is exercised, making bid planning contingent on final order quantities and schedule adjustments. The procurement context emphasizes bulk engine-component supply for military maintenance, requiring readiness to scale and withstand extended delivery cycles as the option clause evolves.
