Northern Coalfields Limited, under Coal India Limited, invites bids for the supply of SIMATIC S7 automation components including SITOP PSU200M 10A, S7-400/S7-300 power supplies, and related modules (PSU200M 230/500VAC, 24VDC; CPU315 2DP with MPI; SM321/SM322 I/O) to support control systems. The estimated contract value is ₹3,514,733.13 with a scope limited to the supply of goods. The tender comprises 12 BOQ items (medical not involved, item details partially listed as N/A). Unique aspects include a flexible quantity option of ±25% during and after award, at contracted rates, with delivery timing linked to the original delivery schedule. This tender targets suppliers of industrial automation hardware and spares in India.
The opportunity requires alignment with Siemens/SIMATIC family parts and integration with existing plant controls, emphasizing standard modular components for PLC and power management. The contract emphasizes non-service delivery (goods supply only) and explicit option-based quantity adjustments, impacting pricing and delivery planning. The lack of complete itemized BOQ data suggests bidders must assess compatibility and prepare complete technical and commercial schedules for 12 potential items.
