Tender Overview

The Indian Army, Department Of Military Affairs, seeks procurement of Iron Fortified Iodized Salt (double fortified salt). Scope centers on compliance with FSSAI standards, active FSSAI license, and adherence to Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) as per FSSAI, plus hygienic/sanitary requirements. Packing size specifications are to be defined, with emphasis on secure packaging and clear marking. The absence of a BOQ suggests a standardized salt specification aligned to defense provisioning. A key differentiator is the requirement to meet multiple regulatory standards and packaging controls under a defense procurement framework. The ATC includes quantity flexibility up to 50% and extended delivery timelines, plus demurrage provisions for rejected items, which impacts supply chain planning. This tender emphasizes compliance, traceability, and regulatory alignment for food-grade salt supply.
