Indian Army Procurement 12-Month Warranty Security Equipment Tender 2026 Rajasthan- ISI/AAA Standards 2026

Tender Overview

The Indian Army, Department Of Military Affairs, seeks a security equipment procurement with a guaranteed ₹17,000 EMD and a 12-month warranty across all items. The scope accommodates a flexible quantity option of up to 25% more than the bid quantity, with staged delivery timelines linked to the original delivery period. Tenderers are advised to verify depot samples on-site at their own cost and ensure exact depot conformity prior to bid submission. The process enforces independent quality vetting by a Board of Officers and requires a signed warranty certificate on letterhead. This tender emphasizes depot-sample matching and strict delivery discipline, set within a structured risk-and-expense framework. Bid evaluators may extend delivery time proportionally, maintaining contract rates and preserving the minimum 30-day extension rule.

The opportunity is delivered by the Indian Army for depot-level stores, with emphasis on compliance, traceability, and post-award quality assurance. The absence of explicit product specs in the published data shifts emphasis onto depot samples, contractual SLA alignment, and robust documentation, including an undertaking of document authenticity. This procurement is driven by rigorous inspection procedures and a transparent, external quality vetting regime.

Key differentiators include defined deleveraging terms for quantity variations and a formal warranty requirement, creating a predictable post-award service profile for bidders. The contract contemplates a risk-adjusted delivery schedule and robust LD provisions to deter delays.
