The eligibility requirements for participation in this procurement include being a registered business entity capable of supplying automotive components. Bidders must showcase their experience in delivering similar products and adhere to industry quality standards. Relevant licenses, registrations, and certifications must also be presented as part of the submission to substantiate compliance with applicable regulations.

Technical specifications dictate that all components should conform to industry standards for safety and functionality. Products like Steering Shafts and Oil Filters must satisfy rigorous testing protocols to ensure they can withstand extreme conditions and comply with military specifications. Documentation that proves adherence to recognized quality standards (e.g., ISO certification) is mandatory for submission.

The Earnest Money Deposit (EMD) ensures the genuine intention of bidders and can serve as a deterrent against frivolous bidding. Bidders are required to submit the EMD along with their proposals, which will be forfeited in the event of withdrawal after bid submission. It acts as a security measure to assuage the contracting authority of the bidder's commitment to fulfill the contract terms once awarded.

Submissions must be made electronically through the specified platform in a single packet that includes both the technical and financial proposals. Each submission should detail pricing, technical compliance, and necessary certifications as per the tender guidelines. Late submissions or incomplete documents may lead to disqualification.
