Brake Manufacturing e-Tenders

Bidders must submit a non-interest bearing bid security (EMD) along with their bids, except for Micro and Small Enterprises (MSEs) or startups recognized by the Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT). The EMD value and applicability are as specified in the tender. The EMD must be valid for 45 days beyond the final bid validity period. Unsuccessful bidders will receive their EMD back within 30 days of the award of the order, or within 30 days of the first-stage technical evaluation result in two-packet or two-stage bidding. The successful bidder must submit a performance security (PS) within 15 days of the award notification. The PS must remain valid for 60 days beyond the completion of all contractual obligations, including warranty obligations. BHEL retains the option to pre-inspect materials at the supplier's works. The order delivery date is the date of receipt at BHEL stores for Indian suppliers. Foreign suppliers must despatch on CFR (Cost and Freight) agreed seaport basis. Indigenous suppliers must have a valid GST registration number (GSTIN). All invoices must be in the specified GST format and contain the invoice number linked to the GSTN network. The seller guarantees that all goods and services will be free from defects in material and workmanship and conform to specifications. This guarantee is for 18 months from the date of delivery or 12 months after the goods have been put to use, whichever is earlier. Time is of the essence, and BHEL will levy liquidated damages (LD) for delays in deliveries. The LD rate is 0. 5% of the undelivered portion of the order value per week or part thereof, subject to a maximum of 10% of the undelivered portion. Amendments, variations, or other changes to the order are only valid if authorized in writing by duly authorized representatives of BHEL. Bidders must declare any conflict of interest. BHEL may terminate the order for breach or other grounds. The tender is governed by Indian law. Digital signatures are required for invoices. A structured grievance redressal mechanism is in place.
