Manufacturing & Supply for Cast Iron Surface Tables

The eligibility requirements include being a registered entity capable of manufacturing and supplying cast iron products. Entities must possess relevant certifications that demonstrate quality assurance and adherence to national standards. Additionally, bidders must comply with any regulations set forth by the Department of Defence Production, ensuring that all submissions meet specified technical and financial benchmarks.

Bidders must provide certificates affirming quality standards that meet or exceed industry norms. Relevant certifications include ISO standards for quality management systems, adherence to safety measures in manufacturing, and any accolades that testify to the entity’s experience and capability in producing high-standard cast iron surface tables.

The registration process involves creating an account on the prescribed procurement platform specifically designated for the tender submissions. Participants need to complete the necessary profiles, upload required documents, and ensure compliance with all stated prerequisites. Suppliers should verify their registration status, ensuring all criteria are addressed before submitting their tender proposals.

Upon being awarded the contract, successful bidders will be required to furnish a performance security that typically ranges between 5-10% of the total contract value. This financial assurance protects the interests of the Department of Defence Production and secures the commitment to fulfill the contract terms in a timely and satisfactory manner.

The benefits for Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSEs) include special provisions that allow for relaxed eligibility criteria, streamlined bidding processes, and the option for differentiated bid evaluation, which encourages MSE participation. Additionally, there may be financial incentives, support in meeting compliance requirements, and an overarching goal to promote local manufacturing under the ‘Make in India’ initiative, further solidifying their role in national procurement.
