Central Power Research Institute Calibration Services Tender Bangalore NABL ISO IEC 17025 2026

Tender Overview

Central Power Research Institute (CPRI), based in Bangalore, Karnataka, seeks calibration services for electrical parameters, with scope covering voltage, current, power (AC/DC), frequency, power factor, phase angle, temperature. Estimated value and EMD are not disclosed. The contract includes an option clause allowing up to 25% change in quantity or duration at issue and after award, with bidders bound to accept revisions. Work must be performed by NABL accredited labs and ISO IEC 17025 compliance is mandatory, ensuring high-precision calibration. Deliverables include calibration reports with traceability and measurement uncertainty. The BOQ lists no items, suggesting a framework or service-level procurement rather than a fixed quantity jolt. This tender emphasizes robust QA through traceability and uncertainty budgets, within Bengaluru’s regulatory environment.
