Tender Overview
The opportunity targets the CHHATTISGARH Health and Family Welfare Department for a CONSTRUCTION category cable procurement project. The tender emphasizes cable category, conductor material, and various insulation and sheath types, alongside generic stores description and conductor cross-section details. Although the BOQ shows zero items, the scope appears to involve multiple construction-grade cables with variable core counts and nominal conductor areas. The buyer reserves option rights to adjust quantities by up to 25%, with extended delivery periods aligned to the original delivery time, ensuring supply continuity during currency. This tender requires bidders to align with standard testing practices via central government labs or NABL/ILAC-accredited labs, adding a quality verification layer. The contractโs differentiator lies in its flexible quantity clause and mandatory test-report availability, challenging bidders to maintain compliance under fluctuating demand while meeting technical specs.
