Gujarat Electricity Board (guvnl), operating under Gujarat Urja Vikas Nigam Limited in the Energy and Petrochemicals Department, invites bids for a File/Folder with binding mechanism. Procurement location is KACHCHH, GUJARAT 370001, with general category requirements covering binding type, material, closure, size compatibility, cover design, pockets, GSM, and color. The BOQ shows no items listed, and the tender emphasizes specification-focused bids on physical attributes of office folders. A notable feature is the buyer’s option clause allowing quantity adjustments up to 25%, both at award and during currency, with delivery timing linked to the original and extended delivery periods. This creates flexibility for suppliers to scale production while maintaining contracted rates. The context is standard stationery supply for government-related agency operations, with emphasis on conformity to listed physical specs rather than service deliverables.
