Tender Overview
Northern Railway invites bids for an Monthly Ambulance Service (All Inclusive) in Moradabad, Uttar Pradesh (202410). Estimated value: ₹2,082,348.00 with an EMD of ₹41,650.00. Category covers Type B Patient Transport Vehicle with a Single Stretcher Regular Van and Maruti Suzuki Eeco Care. No BOQ items are listed, but the contract demands comprehensive vehicle-hiring services across specified ambulances, including on-going service terms and payment under the GeM framework. A key differentiator is the explicit requirement for completing a past similar service contract of at least 35% of the advertised bid value within the last three financial years, plus robust financial turnover criteria. The procurement emphasizes compliance with government tender practices and requires bidders to demonstrate public sector experience. Unique aspects include the acceptance of Fixed Deposit Receipts (FDR) as EMD or performance security, aligned with the GeM guidelines. This tender targets experienced vehicle-hiring service providers capable of managing public sector ambulance operations in a constrained urban environment.
