Tender Overview
The Indian Army, Department of Military Affairs, invites proposals for a set of mechanical and electrical automotive components including DOOR TRIM LH, DOOR TRIM RH, CLUTCH RELEASE BEARING, DOOR LOCK LH, WIPER ARM, SLEEVE CYL ASSY, MASTER CYL ASSY, PUMP ASSY CABIN and ISOLATOR SWITCH. The BOQ lists 9 items with unspecified quantities, suggesting a multi-item supply contract across the listed assemblies. The tender emphasizes quantity variation clauses up to 25% and pricing at contracted rates, with delivery timelines tied to the original and extended delivery periods. This package requires bidders to align with option-based deliveries and contract-adjusted schedules.
Key differentiator lies in the diverse catalogue of vehicle-related components with potential bulk deployment in army supply chains, and a delivery-extension mechanism designed to accommodate fluctuating demand. The absence of explicit start/end dates signals potential rolling or continuous procurement activity under the same framework. Bidders should prepare for a complex, multi-item supply engagement with price adjustments and staged deliveries.
