Northern Coalfields Limited Internal Storage Device Tender SSD/HDD 2025 Rajasthan not specified

Bidders must submit GST, PAN, and experience certificates, plus financial statements. Provide evidence of similar SSD/HDD supply to CIL or PSUs in the last 5 years, and OEM authorizations if applicable. Include PO/RC proof and ensure bid price covers all GOODS costs per Section 2 terms. Delivery terms follow the 25% option clause with minimum 30 days extension when applicable.

Required documents include GST certificate, PAN card, experience certificates for similar storage device orders, financial statements for the last two years, EMD documents if applicable, technical bid detailing device specs, OEM authorizations, and PO/RC proofs or commissioning certificates. Ensure documents demonstrate proven-ness within the last 5 years.

Delivery starts after the order date; the option clause allows up to 25% quantity variation at contracted rates. If extended, the additional time is calculated as (increased quantity ÷ original quantity) × original delivery period, with a minimum 30 days. Delivery terms align with PSU procurement norms for hardware.

Scope is strictly GOODS ONLY; the bid price must include all costs for internal storage devices (SSDs/HDDs). Installation or commissioning is not specified as part of this tender, so bidders should focus on supply readiness and documentation rather than on-site services.

Bidders must prove supply of similar items of same or higher specifications in the last 5 years to CIL, its subsidiaries, other PSUs, or government/private entities. If end-user certificates are unavailable, self-certification with PO/RC and commissioning certificates may be used for assessment.

OEM authorizations or credible reseller agreements are recommended to demonstrate proven-ness for SSD/HDD products. If the tender lacks explicit OEM proof, provide alternative evidence of prior successful supply to recognized government bodies within 5 years and commissioning certificates where applicable.

The tender text does not specify exact payment terms; bidders should assume standard PSU practice for hardware supply, typically milestones on PO delivery, with possible advance payments or post-delivery settlement. Confirm term specifics in the final contract negotiations and ensure compliance with submission documents.

No explicit standards are listed; bidders should present hardware that meets general government data storage expectations. Where possible, align with common certifications (e.g., ISI/ISO if applicable) and provide device specifications, warranty terms, and support arrangements consistent with PSU procurement norms.
