Tender Overview
National Aluminium Company Limited (Nalco), Bhubaneswar, invites bids for a VDC POWER SUPPLY UNIT to serve Nalco smelter stores at Angul, Odisha. The scope centers on a single product category: voltage DC power supply units, with delivery within 120 days of order placement. Payments are 100% through e-mode within 10 days of CRAC, and GST treatment will align with supplier invoicing and GST rules. Only the principal vendor M/S. PHOENIX CONTACT (INDIA) PVT.LTD or their authorized dealers may participate, and a 12-month manufacturer’s guarantee is required from material acceptance, extending to defect liability for design and workmanship. This procurement emphasizes OEM accountability, delivery timeliness, and comprehensive warranty coverage to ensure uninterrupted Nalco operations.
Nalco specifies a price basis for Nalco smelter stores inclusive of all cost components (P&F, freight & transit insurance, GST). The tender includes GST compliance considerations under the Indian tax regime, including ITD provisions for sellers with GST invoicing and potential deductions as per applicable sections. The absence of a BOQ suggests a component-level or packaged unit purchase, with OEM authorization as a gating factor for technical eligibility. The procurement target focuses on a compliant, readily installable VDC power supply solution that meets Nalco’s operational reliability requirements.
