Printing And Stationery Department Uttar Pradesh Pre-Sensitized Printing Plates Tender Lucknow 2026 IS Plate Specs

Tender Overview

The opportunity is issued by the Printing And Stationery Department Government Of Uttar Pradesh, under the Infrastructure And Industrial Development Department Uttar Pradesh. The procurement targets Pre-Sensitized Printing Plates (V2) (Q3) for use in district-level printing operations in Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh 226001. The tender specifies an EMD of ₹5,500 and an option to adjust quantity by up to 25% (increase/decrease) at contracted rates. The delivery timeline ties to delivery orders, with extended time calculations based on quantity variances. The BOQ shows no listed items, indicating a potential sole-sourcing or pre-quantified packaging approach. A strong emphasis is placed on service support, including dedicated/toll-free escalation contact details from bidders or OEMs. The tender requires bidders to meet financial integrity criteria and provide an escalation matrix for service support. Unique packaging details request the number of plates per package and exact plate specifications. This opportunity is location-specific, focused on traditional printing plate supplies under state procurement rules.

Key differentiators include the opt-in quantity adjustment mechanism, mandatory service-support telemetry and escalation contacts, and the IS/industry-standard compliance implied by the specification categories. The absence of BOQ items suggests bidders should anticipate packing, labeling, and integrated delivery considerations aligned with Lucknow warehouse or printing facilities.
