Tender Overview
The Forest Department Chhattisgarh, positioned in KANKER, CHHATTISGARH 494230, seeks a Handling & Transport Service for fuel-wood on a lump-sum basis. The estimated contract value is ₹471,380. The scope covers road transportation with Open Body trucks, capable of Light/Heavy Duty loads, including loading, unloading, and insurance. No BOQ items have been published, indicating a broad service requirement under a lump-sum arrangement. A 25% adjustment window exists for quantity or duration at contract issuance and thereafter. This procurement emphasizes practical, on-site transfer of fuel-wood to meet departmental needs.
Key differentiators include a flexible quantity/duration clause and a narrow focus on timber fuel transport, with essential logistics coverage and risk transfer via insurance. The absence of detailed BOQ items suggests bidders should present comprehensive transport capabilities, fleet readiness, and organizational capacity to handle fuel-wood logistics under the stated terms. This tender hinges on reliable Open Body trucks and compliant service delivery within the lump-sum framework, rather than a per-item bidding model.
