Tender Overview
The tender seeks supply and deployment of an Aadhaar Enabled Biometric Attendance System (AEBAS), categorized under the government procurement umbrella via GeM. Details show an option clause allowing a ±25% variation in quantity at contracted rates, with delivery timelines linked to the original delivery order and extended period calculations. The bid emphasizes OEM/authorized seller support with India-based aftersales and a state-level MSE reservation for eligible bidders, indicating a push to domestic manufacturing and service coverage. No itemized BOQ exists, signaling a broad hardware-software attendance solution requirement rather than a single SKU. The procurement aims to equip multiple locations with standardized biometric attendance, backed by service centres and escalation processes. Unique clauses include service centre establishment within 30 days of award and a defined escalation matrix for service support, underscoring reliability and post-sale responsiveness.
