East Central Railway Convection Heaters Tender Nalanda Bihar 2026 IS 550/ISI 2021 Standards

Tender Overview

East Central Railway invites bids for the supply of convection heaters (room heater with blower) to be delivered at Nalanda, Bihar 801301. The scope is strictly supply of goods with an OEM warranty and post-delivery support. The contract allows a 25% quantity increase/decrease at bid and during execution, at contracted rates, with delivery time adjustments based on the rule provided. Inspection is performed by the consignee after receipt; pre-dispatch inspection is not mandated. The vendor must provide OEM warranty certificates and establish local after-sales support infrastructure in India. This tender emphasizes installation, commissioning, and maintenance readiness through its service network requirement.

Key differentiators include the optional quantity variation clause, consignee-led post-receipt inspection, and mandatory OEM warranty documentation. The absence of BOQ items indicates a generic, itemized specification approach for room heater equipment. The procurement aims to secure a reliable supply chain with timely delivery and robust after-sales service across the consignee locations.
