backed by all information wherever available like last work order issued mode of tender, no.
of techno-commercial acceptable offers, estimated cost along with basis, accepted rate etc.
II. LAST PURCHASE PRICE/ WORK ORDER VALUE:-
To prepare the estimate LPP may be considered on the following lines:
i) The last purchase price (LPP) / last work order value will be the price paid in the
latest contract of a similar magnitude, which is not more than three years old from the
date of tender estimate. When similar item of same magnitude is not available, alternative
methodologies may be resorted to.
ii) Where the firm holding the LPP / last work order value contract has defaulted, the fact
should be highlighted in the contract proposal and the price paid against the latest contract
placed prior to the defaulting LPP / last work order value, where supplies / works
have been completed, should be indicated but not more than three years old from the date of
estimate.
iii) Where the price indicated in the LPP / last work order value is subject to variation,
besides indicating the original price of the LPP / last work order value, the updated
price as computed in terms of the price variation clause, should also be indicated.
iv) Where the supply/work order against the LPP / last work order value is yet to
commence, i.e., delivery / completion schedule is not yet due, it should be indicated in the
contract proposal, whether the contract holder is a past supplier/registered vendor/new vendor.
In case of a new vendor, the price paid against the previous contract as in the case of (ii)

given in the contract proposals. For this purpose, a LPP / last work order value register will be
maintained by all contract departments after sharing information among all the plants and HQ by
sending copies of PO/WO for items/ works common to them.
3.ESTIMATE :-
As the estimated rate is a vital element in establishing the reasonableness of prices, it is important
that the same is worked out in a realistic and objective manner on the basis of prevailing market
rates, last purchase prices rate (not older than three years), economic indices (In absence of related
indices, inflation @ 6% p. a or part there off. may be considered) for the raw material/labour (the same
may be obtained from Labour Bureau, Shimla, RBI, or other Govt. published bulletin), other

assess the Financial & Technical capability of the bidders who can deliver the goods/services as
per the requirements. QR is required for those contracts, which are to be finalised through OTE.
QR is not required for LTE amongst ALS / vendor with proven credential and for Single Tender
Enquiry. However in case of poor vendor base (less than 4) QR may be considered for LT
through wide publication in e-tendering portal .The vendor with proven credential in respect
of both procurement and works contract is defined as below:

their audited accounts in QR for turn-key project tenders (involving supply, erection and
commissioning of equipment) having estimated value above Rs. 5 crores.
1) Determine Working Capital position,

2) Average annual turnover (AAT)
3) Net worth.
Working capital should be considered for the last financial year. Net working capital or access to
credit facilities = 3 x Cost Estimate
Completion period in months
Net worth of the bidder as on the last day of the preceding financial year shall not be less than
100 % of the paid up share capital.
Net worth means the sum total of the paid up share capital and free reserves. Free reserve means
all reserves credited out of the profits and share premium account but does not include reserves
credited out of the revaluation of the assets, write back of depreciation provision and
amalgamation. Further any debit balance of Profit and Loss account and miscellaneous expenses
to the extent not adjusted or written off, if any, shall be reduced from reserves and surplus.
Average annual turnover is to be determined taking into consideration turnover of best 3 financial
years out of last 5 financial years. Other income shall not be considered for arriving at annual
turnover.
Minimum average annual turnover (MAT) for the best 3 years out of last 5 financial years
= 1.5 x Cost Estimate
Completion period in year
In other cases, average annual financial turnover during last three financial years should be at least
30% of the estimated cost as financial QR.
Note- Completion period less than one year to be considered as one year.
In case where audited results for the preceding financial year are not available, certification of

Experience of having completed similar works during last 7 years ending last day of month
previous to the one in which offers are invited shall be either of the following:
(a) Three similar completed works each costing not less than the amount equal to 30% of the
estimated cost.
or
(b) Two similar completed works each costing not less than the amount equal to 40% of the
estimated cost.
or
(c) One similar completed work costing not less than the amount equal to 70% of the estimated

in totality (subject to furnishing proof of executed value of work in the form of certified copies of
RA Bills) or any relevant documents, which is sufficient to proof the works completed or to be
completed.
“Similar work” should be clearly defined in the bid document having due regard to the work so as
to generate adequate competition. Similar nature of work, sought for to qualify for a certain work,
incorporated in the NIT shall be clear, unambiguous and specific and there shall not be any room
for divergent interpretation at any stage.
Any explanation /elaboration added to qualify similar nature of work shall not be supplant but
supplement the same.
To maintain equity, consistency and better transparency in the tendering process for the services/
works / procurement which are common for individual projects, a QR committee at HQ level to
be formed.
However, QR as mentioned above is an illustrative one and may not be suitable for all
AMC/Works/Services/ procurement. Tender accepting authority (TAA) is authorised to
approve to meet his requirements for case-to-case basis so that adequate bidding response is
achieved.
QR should be carefully formulated so that capable contractors are not restricted from participation
in the tender. However, a tolerance limit (say 5%) on the quantum of QR may be provided to take
care of marginal shortfall and this shall be mentioned in NIT.
11. FORMATION OF QR COMMITTEE:

EOI to be invited through press advertisement.
EOI may be issued covering of following
areas:-
1. Nature of work to be executed with specifying the objective of work.
2. Desired timeframe which may be allowed to complete the work.
3. Expected investment, if any.
4. Evaluation process for short listing of vendors.
5. Other information which may affect the schedule of work during execution, if
any.
Interested bidders should offer their views on methodology with available latest technical data
for execution of such work along with the following documents:

the evaluation process already notified in EOI and based on the available financial documents by
an appropriate QR committee based on the expected investment decision. However, considering
the technical complexity of work, TAA may include any outside expert on the subject area in the
QR committee.
In such case, NIT will be issued to short listed bidders only but will be considered as open
tender so far DFP is concerned.
Also for participation against EOI, the bidder shall not be required to furnish EMD/Bid security,
but EMD/Bid security in appropriate form to be asked at the time of issuance of NIT.
ii)Post-qualification methodology:

asked for and for procurement on single tender basis and any other tender, as decided by TIA.
f) Invitation for bids: Bids shall generally be invited through publication of the NITs in
newspapers / website, detailing QR except LTE along with techno-commercial specification.
In case of LT, QR is required only if there is no approved vendor list/ poor vendor list. In other
cases of LT, QR is not required. Adequate time of around 2 weeks shall be given for
purchase of bidding documents. The deadline for submission of bids shall be
approximately 15 days after the close of sale of bidding documents and bids shall be
opened on the same day. Bidding documents shall be issued, against the prescribed fee, to
all those firms who request for the same in case OTE.
g) Pre-bid conference: A pre-bid conference, for clarifying the queries that prospective bidders
may like to seek in regard to the provisions of bidding documents and other details shall
normally be held within 7(seven) days of sale closing of tender documents. The firms who
have purchased the bidding documents may attend the conference. Queries raised by various
firms shall be discussed in the Pre-Bid Conference/Clarification Meeting attended by the
representatives of the firms and the TC Committee. Pre-bid meeting/conference will be attended

from bidders, either prior to or during the conference, shall be prepared, along with the
amendments, if any, to the bidding documents, by the TC Committee and same to be placed
before TIA for approval. However, TIA approval for techno-commercial acceptance of bid, pre-
bid conference report is not required where the same is recommended by higher level committee
i.e. above the level of TIA or TIA is one of the member of recommending authority. But TIA may
take initiative for further action.
The same may be incorporated in the bidding documents within three days(within 7 days

meeting with suitable extension of tender sale period and tender submission period.
Thereafter, a reasonable time (say 3-10 days) is to be given to all the bidders to submit their
offers.
Pre-bid conference is found to be helpful in clarifying / addressing various queries /
confusion of bidders which facilitates quick disposal of tender at the evaluation stage. To
obviate the possibility of cartel formation (in case no. of bidders less than three), pre-bid
discussion may also be held with bidders individually, preferably in a conference call mode.

at appropriate level for following aspects such as:
(a) Qualifying Requirements, (b) Bill of Quantities, (c) Capacity and Capability, (d)
Assignment of Contract, (e) Compliance to technical requirements and (f) other Technical and
Commercial aspects/deviations.
On the pre-scheduled date and time of tender opening, the received Techno Commercial
bids)

committee.
For evaluation of Techno Commercial bids, all the required parameters will be obtained from the
Bidders in an objective and structured manner. Bidders will not be required to upload
scanned copy of any document or to submit hard copy of any document for the evaluation
process except the EMD, cost of tender documents, scanned copy of Letter of Bid, document in
support of exemption of EMD (if applicable) and Excel sheet for Technical Evaluation. The

Purchase Clause, Guarantee/Warranty Conditions, Performance Guarantee Clause, Inspection
Clause etc. will be specifically mentioned in the NIT. The bidder has to accept those terms and
conditions unconditionally in order to participate in the tender otherwise cost of deviation to be
mention in specified Form except essential clauses as stipulated in NIT.
The bidders will furnish their values against each specification in Technical Parameter Sheet and
will submit/ upload the same Excel sheet/ file during submission of bid. Based on the evaluation
criteria indicated in the Technical Parameter Excel Sheet, the technical evaluation of the bid
will be done by the system with least human intervention and the compliance report will be
displayed to the bidders on-line and in case of of-line dealing officer will prepare the summary
sheet based on the excel sheet submitted by the bidder and same to be placed before TC for
evaluation.
In case of on-line, the Technical evaluation of Tenders will be done on-line by the software as per
respective Evaluation Criteria specified in the Technical Evaluation Excel File specially designed
for obtaining specific information from the bidders and evaluating the same in a
transparent manner so that Bidders will be able to know, whether they comply to the Technical
specification parameters of the NIT.
In case of techno commercial compliance bid based on the information submitted by the bidder
is three or less than three, verification of documents of all the bidders will be done before
opening the price bid of techno-commercially acceptable offer.
The Tender Committee will validate the on-line evaluation of Techno Commercial bid/offline
evaluation based on the information furnished by bidder on-line/off-line.
The system generated evaluation sheets/ off-line evaluation sheet shall be authenticated
by
Tender Committee and shall be kept in the
file.
The first step in examination of bids shall be to ascertain whether the bidders, who have
submitted a substantially responsive bid, generally meet the Qualifying Requirements. The
Tender Committee shall examine all the relevant information in respect of QR of all the
bidders and identify the clarifications or additional data, if any, which may be required from a
bidder(s) so as to ascertain the bidder(s) QR compliance status. Approval of TIA is required for
seeking techno-commercial clarifications and additional data from participating bidders in
respect of QR and bringing out the following details:
(i) Bidders who are observed to generally meet the qualifying requirements and with whom
DVC can proceed ahead to hold the Clarifications Meetings on different aspects of their 1st
Stage Bids.
(ii) Bidders who are not found to meet QR.
(iii)Bidders, from whom clarifications and additional data are required, so as to ascertain their
QR compliance status.
Bids from those bidders who are not found to meet the QR shall not be considered
further.
Further clarification and additional data shall be sought from the bidders identified under
(iii) above and shall be allowed specific time period as deemed reasonable by the Tender
Committee to submit the same. If a bidder fails to furnish the required details within the aforesaid
period, it shall be deemed that he has nothing more to supplement the data already furnished in
his bid.

The discussions with different bidders identified as above shall be carried out with the
objective of ensuring that all the proposals conform to equal and acceptable technical standards
and other terms and conditions. Any deficiencies, extraneous provision and unsatisfactory
technical features, if any, with regard to provisions of Bidding Documents, pointed out by
the bidder(s) shall be carefully examined and evaluated.
Based on the clarifications and additional data furnished by the bidders, the QR compliance status
of the bidders shall be further examined and the Tender Committee shall put up a note identifying
the following:
(i) Bidders who are observed to generally meet the qualifying requirements and
techno- commercial specifications.
(ii) Bidders who are not found to meet
QR.
Bids of those bidders who are not found to meet the QR shall not be considered
further.
Tender Committee shall put up first stage bid evaluation report and recommendation for
opening of Price bid of the qualified bidders, whose first stage bids are responsive, to the Tender
Inviting Authority for approval.
However, TIA approval for techno-commercial acceptance of bid, pre-bid conference report is
not required where the same is recommended by higher level committee i.e. above the level of
TIA or TIA is one of the member of recommending authority. But TIA may take initiative for
further action.
The Tender Committee recommendation based on the on-line evaluation/ off-line evaluation
will be made for opening of Price bid of eligible bidders. The said recommendation will
require approval of the TIA. The summary of technical evaluation with the names of eligible
bidders and the brief reasons for disqualification of unsuccessful bidders (if any) alongwith the
date of Price- bid opening will be uploaded/ communicated by the TIA.
Date of Price-bid opening shall be kept at least one day after the date of uploading/
communicated of the summary of technical evaluation. All the bidders will be intimated
through system generated e-mail/e-mail.
The Price bid of the successful bidders (qualified in Techno commercial bid) will be opened
on the scheduled date and after the pre-scheduled time by the Tender opening committee.
The Bidders may view the price bid opening online remotely or in case of off-line, bidders will be
allowed to present at the time of opening of price bid. The Comparative statement manually
prepared by the dealing officer or downloaded system generated Comparative Statement will be
vetted and signed by the Tender Committee. This will be kept in the file.
j) Verification of Documents
a) L1 Bidder/s for each item will have to produce the documents (original/self authenticated
and attested by Public Notary), as specified in the NIT, in support of the information furnished
by him/them on-line, for verification by Tender Committee on any working day within 10
days in case of domestic tenders and 15 days in case of global tenders from the date of
opening of price bid. The L1 bidder/s will also submit an affidavit (original) on a non-judicial
stamp paper of Rs.10 regarding genuineness of the information furnished by him/them
online and authenticity of the documents being produced by him/them, within the same time
frame. No additional time will be allowed to the bidder for producing the required documents.
b) In case the L1 bidder for any item fails to produce the documents within the specified
any of the information furnished by L1 bidder on-line is found to be false by the
Tender Committee during verification of documents, which changes the eligibility status
of the bidder, then snap bidding/revise price bid/reverse auction at the discretion of TAA or
Concerned Member ( in case of TAA is Board/chairman) will be resorted to within the
remaining bidders instead of re-tender for the items/ contract in which the bidder was L-1
with forfeiture of EMD with caution letter to refrain in future and in event of 2nd instances
EMD will be forfeited and banning of L1 bidder for one year from participating in
future tenders considering time essence to finalise the tender.
The Tender Committee will recommend for issue of Purchase Order to the successful
bidder/s after evaluating their technical eligibility based on the computer generated evaluation
sheets / manual comparative statement followed by verification of the documents
submitted by L-1 bidder/s in support of the information furnished by them on line/off-line
and after evaluation of the reasonableness of L-1 rates. The reasonableness of rates will
be evaluated as per the provisions of Works & Purchase Manual of DVC and other
guidelines issued from time to time. The approval for issue of Purchase Order to L-1 bidder/s
will be accorded by the competent authority as per Delegation of Power based on the TC
recommendation.
After obtaining the approval of competent authority on tender committee recommendation, the
Purchase order to the successful bidder/s will be issued and the scanned copy of the
Purchase Order will be uploaded on the e-Procurement portal and/or the original copy will be
sent to the bidder/s through registered/speed post
The EMD of unsuccessful bidders will be refunded within 15 days after finalization of
bid.
The system will preserve the details of Techno Commercial bid and Price bid in the archives for
auditing purposes and the same can be accessed with special authorization. In case of off-line,
file will be kept with the dealing officer for any future reference.
In exceptional circumstances if contract is to be finalised in deviation of the provisions, clauses,
terms & conditions of the Works & Procurement Manual, then condonation of deviation
are required to be approved by concerned Member if not specifically empowered otherwise.
Further in case there is a deviation to CVC guidelines, the same is required to be approved by
the Chairman under intimation to Board in due course and information to CVC & MOP.
Power is delegated by the Corporation to condone / waive LD & SD Clauses to the Tender
Accepting Authority as per Delegation of Financial Power and to the Chairman, in case Board
is the Tender Accepting Authority, in respect of the following contracts to be awarded –
i) Against Single Tender Enquiry on OEM / OES / PAC basis/Single source Standardisation.

ii) For Consultancy / Investigation / Study / Testing review etc. against Single Tender Enquiry /
Nomination basis on Govt. agencies including PSUs and Education / Research Institution.
iii) For procurement of oil (LDO, FO & HSD).
CEs/Sr. CEs are hereby delegated the Power for approval of deviation from NIT Clauses (other
than SD/LD Clauses) like Warranty / Guarantee, Terms of Payment etc. in respect of SINGLE
TENDER ENQUIRY on OEM/OES/PAC/ single source basis after recording justification for the
same.
k) Splitting of order between two or more Vendors :-
In case of Coal Importation, Transportation and the requisitioned item (s) is/are critical inputs for
operation and maintenance of plants, it may become essential to operate parallel contract (s) to
safeguard against chances of one vendor failing to execute. The same may apply when material
/work/ service is urgently required and single vendor cannot execute entire quantity in time. Under
these circumstances need may be felt to split requisitioned quantity between two or more vendors and
operate parallel contracts subject to the approval of TAA with recording the justification. Following
procedure shall be adopted:
(a) No splitting after opening the bids shall be allowed. Such decision need to be taken at the time of
floating the tenders and a provision in line with following, must be made in the Notice for Inviting
Tender (NIT)
Tendered material(s) are one of the critical inputs for smooth operation and maintenance of
power plants and DVC may enter into parallel contracts with one or more vendors
(b) While splitting the requisitioned quantity between two or more vendors, the original evaluated L1
vendor shall always be in advantageous position i.e. quantity between L1and L2 vendors may be
divided in ratio of minimum 60:40 and so depending on capacity of the firm in the industries, time
frame of volume requirement etc.
(c) At first, the evaluated L2 vendor is t o b e approached or called for negotiation to match
their rates withL1 evaluated price, which may sometimes warrant the matching terms and
conditions also. After obtaining the favorable consent from evaluated L2 vendor, order may be
split in ratio as per NIT.
In the event of L2 bidders not agreeing to match L1 rates, possibilities shall be explored with L3,
L4 and so on as the case may be in seriatim in an attempt to finalise the tender.
In case o f n o b i d d e r a g r e e s t o m a t c h t h e L 1 o f f e r r a t e , p l a c e m e n t o f
total order or retender for balance quantity to be decided by TAA on
case to case basis.
However the said clause shall be clearly mentioned in NIT.

In case of TAA is Board/ Chairman for placement of order, approval of concerned member shall
be obtained.
In case of placement of order on splitting up of “works/ procurements/ services”, QR to be firmed

up based on the approved maximum quantity which will be placed in favour of L1 bidder.
14. MODE OF TENDERING:

Before floating any enquiry (Capital / Spares / consumables / other assets / works / Turnkey Projects),
it shall be ensured that prior approval/sanction of the appropriate authority having financial
power as per relevant DFP is obtained.
The mode of Tendering should be assessed on the basis of proper technical justification and not on
the value of the indent alone.
However, the mode of tendering will be selected considering the following in general:
a. The total estimated cost of Purchase/ estimated value of works/services to be made. b.
Type of materials (proprietary or otherwise)
c. No. of proven sources known and available. d.
Urgency of requirement.
Depending on the above, followings are the mode of tendering which can be adopted for the
purpose of procurement / works contract / service contract:
a) Open Tendering:-
i) Through abridged press advertisement and hosting in DVC website.
Attention of all manufacturer or their authorised agents/distributor of a particular equipment/material
and capable vendors to undertake a particular work/services will be drawn to the requirements of
DVC and allowed to quote. Display of NIT/Enquiry in the Notice Board does not mean open
tendering. Open tendering means NIT/Enquiry has been given wide publicity and efforts are made to
reach the bulk of the potential vendors. For this purpose, short advertisements in ITJ and in three
leading Newspapers, out of which at least one Newspaper must be in a local vernacular of users
unit/project. For example, if items are to be procured for Bokaro Thermal Power Station, short
advertisement shall be published in ITJ and in any leading newspaper of Jharkhand published in
Hindi, in one leading Newspaper from Kolkata and the other one in English Newspaper
published simultaneously from metro cities like DELHI / KOLKATA / MUMBAI etc. For purpose of
open tendering, apart from publishing the NIT in short form in ITJ, Newspapers, detailed NIT
including the bid documents are to be published in DVC’s website (www.dvc.gov.in) so that the
same can be downloaded by the intending tenderer. However, hoisting of engineering
documents, as part of bid documents in Website should also be considered, if technically
possible.
The open tendering through press advertisement, in general, is to be resorted to for high value
purchases/Turnkey Projects/Works/Services, having estimated value in excess of Rs.25 lakhs.
However, open tendering may also be resorted to for critical items/works having estimated cost of
procurement less than Rs.25 lakhs for which no source of procurement/vendor base is available.
However, overall economy in press advertisement should also be taken care of and generally to be
restricted to 5% of estimated cost. Prior approval of Tender Inviting Authority in this regard is to be
obtained.
Qualifying requirements should be specified in the web advertisement in details so that only
genuine and reliable parties are able to quote.
The copies of the advertisements published in the available Newspapers should be kept in the relevant
file along with recording the dates and names of other publication selected for Tender notice.
ii) For Works / services having estimated value below Rs.25 Lacs, the following may also be
reckoned as Open Tendering when delegation of power is concerned:
Tendering has been made amongst all the approved list of vendors (at least four vendors in ALS),
who are considered capable by TIA to undertake tendered works/services subject to condition that the
said approved list of vendors has been prepared in most transparent manner by press advertisement.
The methodology described under ‘vendor registration’ of this manual may also be used for such
purpose. Such vendors’ list will be considered valid maximum for a period of 03 years from the
date of enlistment. Working vendors’ performance/ rating should also be carried out on yearly
basis.
b) Limited Tendering: -
i) Limited tenders shall be issued having estimated value of Rs.25 lakhs and below, from not less
than ordinarily from 4 parties from amongst the list of approved vendors / vendor with proven
credential / Manufacturer / authorised agents or distributor / owner / proprietor of the firms
having proven performance in the past through online method having value Rs.2 lacs & above
and for off-line tender shall be issued under Certificate of Posting / Speed Post / Regd. Post /
Courier for purchase/works/services Vendor list for LTE is to be approved by Tender Inviting
Authority before floating NIT.
All the parties to whom LTE are floated should categorically send their regret in case of non-
participation in the tender otherwise they may not be considered in future for similar item and same
is to be clearly mentioned in the enquiry.
ii) Where there is no approved vendor list / poor vendor list, the following stipulations may be
followed as per discretion of TIA :
a) For small works/procurements/contracts having estimated value up to Rs.2 Lacs, tender/enquiry
may be circulated in internal notice board and by displaying in various DVC
establishments. The same is to be reckoned as LTE for the purpose of delegation.
b) Tender / enquiry having estimated cost above Rs.2 Lacs and up to Rs.25 Lacs shall be
hoisted in DVC Website with QR apart from circulation and display in various DVC
establishments including direct mailing of NIT to the proven vendors of past and this will be
considered as LTE for the purpose of delegation.
However, for the items of special nature with technical intricacies or for any other reason the
Plant Chief/CE/HOD may decide on the number of bidders to whom LTE will be issued and in
such cases enquiry sent to more than one vendor will qualify as LTE.
iii) Limited tender can also be resorted to for estimated values exceeding Rs. 25 Lacs when the
requirement is of special nature with technical intricacies and can be performed by selected
vendors only, or when time does not permit for open tendering. In both the cases reasons for such
action should be recorded in writing and prior approval from TIA is to be obtained. The cases of
acceptance of single response to the limited tenders will be treated as per delegation of financial
power.
Single acceptable bid against open tender/ limited tender to be retendered with modified QR in
case of open tender / hoisted at web site with QR in case of limited tender except urgencies
certified by the TIA and to be treated as single tender on ground of urgency if there is no specific
delegation. However in case of single acceptable bid against open / limited tender with modified QR
shall be treated as open tender/ limited tender as the case may be.
c) Single Tendering:-
Single Tendering shall be done by inviting offers from single source/vendor, which may be the
OES/OEM/PSU, or on the basis of proprietary article certificate or on the basis of source
standardisation or on the ground of urgency/ emergency. In case of proprietary
items/OEM/OES/Standard Source Basis, certificate to that effect will have to be issued by the
indenter at the appropriate levels in each case. Source standardisation will normally be for a
limited period not exceeding three years and have to be approved by Station Chief/Sr. C.E. /
HOD. The proposal for single tender enquiry on the ground of urgency /emergency should be
approved by tender accepting authority as per delegation. All projects shall send their source
standardisation list to other projects for their reference documents and a copy of the same shall
also be forwarded to Chief Materials Manager.
In case of multi source standardisation based on open advertisement, the same will be treated at par
with open tender for the purpose of delegation of power. If the multi-source standardisation is done
on the basis of vendor list/ALS, the same will be treated at par with limited tender for the purpose of
Delegation of Power.
The materials which are to be procured on single tender propriety basis, the vendor must submit a
Proprietary Article Certificate (PAC) and Price Reasonability Certificate (PRC) stating that the prices
charged are reasonable and the same as being charged to all the Govt. / semi Govt.
Organizations / PSUs including D.G.S. & D. wherever applicable and shall be submitted along
with the offer with documentary evidence. Where agency commission is involved, the same in
percentage invariably be indicated and in such cases appropriate document/agreement required to be
furnished.
d) Spot/ Committee Purchase:-

In order to meet the immediate requirement, items costing more than 5000/- upto Rs. 100,000/-
(except office establishment requirement) may be procured by a committee, consisting of
indenter, finance and Purchase Deptt.. This can be done only with approval of Project Head, and the
committee should record the price reasonability.
e) Tender due to urgency:-
To exercise the delegated power under relevant DFP for placement of work order on urgent basis
TAA is empowered to issue short tender notice with a minimum time limit for 7 days instead of
normal time period specified in LT/OT on recording the reason for urgency.
However, in case of TAA is Board/ Chairman, approval of concerned Member shall be obtained.
15. Source Standardization Procedure:
1. For the efficient operation and maintenance of power plant, timely availability of quality
materials at reasonable price is very important. Failure of small items of MRO
(Maintenance, Repair and Operating Supplies) may prove very costly and result in spoiling our
very high value equipment, increasing cost of maintenance and sometime even effecting
power generation. For example, in the area of plant consumable, for almost every item quite a
number cheap products have been developed and being marketed by various suppliers. Many
of them have failed to provide reliable and consistently good services. We being in power
sector cannot afford pre-mature failures. It is therefore imperative for us to look for quality
materials amongst available brands/ manufacturers. Standardization helps us to select
reasonably and consistently good quality materials from the various alternatives available in the
market.
2. As and when user departments feel the necessity of standardizing sources/ makes of certain
items due to difficulties in getting requisite quality materials, they shall initiate proposal for
standardization of source (s) of supply of those items. The proposal shall indicate in details as
to why source/ make standardization of proposed items is necessary. Such proposal needs
to be approved by Chief Engineer/ Head of Unit.
3. After approval of competent authority to consider source standardization of certain

verified from the bank.

BG shall not be rejected merely on that ground. It shall be examined by the concerned
Purchase Officer to ascertain whether it meets the required intent and purpose of EMD / bid security.
If the BG is not found acceptable, the bid shall be treated as non-responsive. If the BG is found to
meet the intent and purpose of bid security, despite the variance in text, the concerned Purchase
Officer shall obtain the vetting of the same by the legal cell. Thereafter, Tender Inviting Authority
shall approve it for acceptance. The checklist for acceptance of BG and The formats for BG against
EMD/SD/Advance and extension are given at the end of this manual.

31. SCOPE OF WORK OF TC:
Function of TC will commence after opening of tender. The scope of work of TC should be to
scrutinize the tenders received to find out whether these are complete in all respects and binding
on the tenderers. The committee will also check all the information related to credentials &
techno-commercial as submitted by the bidders as per NIT stipulated. TC also record on the
technical acceptability of the offers and commercial terms to be frozen before opening of the
price bid. After opening of Price Bids (for two part tendering) CS is to be prepared by dealing
officer and placed to TC for their scrutiny and recommendation. The Tender Committee should

check and scrutinize the CS and put their recommendation on the purchase proposal/ final
proposal for works & services after assessing the price reasonableness of the offer. Thereafter, the
above proposal is to be placed before the TAA for approval or convey their inability to conclude
the tender with justification to TAA. There is no need to send the case file to Finance again for
formal concurrence. The purchase order/work order will be placed after getting the approval of
awarding authority.
Tender Inviting Authority will monitor the time schedules of different activities for finalization of
contract.
There may be some offers, which are not complete. Such incomplete offers can be broadly
classified into two groups.
A) Where the offer is complete with regard to the essentials of the tender though some other
details may be missing.
B) Where the offer is not complete with regard to essentials (which are to be disclosed in the
NIT).
Incomplete tenders falling under Group “A” may be considered provided the offer is specified
with regard to the following basic requirements:
i) Description Specifications/detailed scope of work
ii) Rates
iii) Delivery terms/completion schedule.
There should be no ambiguity regarding the items being offered/ scope of works to be executed,
the prices quoted, and the period of delivery/completion schedule.
Where with regard to these basic requirements, the offers contain vague and ambiguous
stipulations or avoid specific replies to the queries in the tender documents, like whether the
stores conform to technical particulars / specifications / drawings as specified in the schedule to
tender, such offers will not be considered complete with regard to the essentials.
If some other information are missing from such an offer, for example, list of plant and
machinery, details of NSIC registration, copies of statutory license from competent authority /
EPF Code etc., the Dealing Officer may make a reference to the firm seeking further information
provided soliciting of such information does not amount to revision of the offer. Such references
and clarifications must be made quickly with a target date ( not exceeding 30 days) for reply so
that settlement of the tender is not delayed. For making such references or accepting a
clarification from the firms for such details, the Dealing Officer does not require approval from
any superior authority or any recommendation of TC.
32. CLARIFICATION THROUGH E-MAIL:
Information / clarification or references regarding Technical, Commercial as well as Financial
aspects from the bidders in respect of their bids may be accepted through official e-mail or
otherwise.

However, no clarifications should be obtained from the firm or accepted, or submitted
unilaterally, which have an effect of changing the essentials of the tender or giving an unintended
benefit to the tenderer.
As regards tenders falling under Group “B” mentioned above such offers should be ignored and
rejected straightaway and no reference should be made to the firm or clarification accepted, if
submitted by the tenderer unilaterally.
33. THE FOLLOWING TENDERS MAY BE REJECTED OUTRIGHTLY:
a) Tenders received after the due date and time of tender opening (late tenders);
b) An unsolicited offer, i.e, offers from tenderer other than those asked to quote against
LTI/STI,
c) Offers received subsequently after original offer through open tendering / LTI / STI.
d) It is in the form of Fax/Telex/Telegram/e-mail.
e) It is from stockist (s) or agent(s) without indicating details of the manufacturer whose
products are offered or without price list of the manufacturer with date and signature.
However, Tender Enquiry redirected by the manufacturer to his authorized
distributor/dealer may be given cognigence provided necessary supporting documents
(like up-to-date pricelist published by the manufacturer, manufacturer’s guarantee for
quality, delivery time etc.) is enclosed with the offer.
f) It is from agents without proper authorization from the manufacturer’
g) It is from agents quoting for imported stores but they are not enlisted with DGS&D;
h) It is not accompanied with Earnest Money in case the firm responding is not registered
with valid NSIC;
i) It is ambiguous with regard to any of the essentials, i.e., the items being offered, prices
quoted, and the period of delivery;
j) Tender samples as required in the enquiry conditions have not been submitted by the due
date
k) In case of the price (Basic Price) component is exposed other than in the price part
34. OFFERS WITH SHORTER VALIDITY:

An offer whose validity is shorter than the validity period asked in the NIT and when price bids
are yet to be opened, bidder may be persuaded to accept the NIT stipulation in this regard. In case
of non-compliance even after persuasion, bid may be considered valid at the discretion of TIA.
35. OFFERS WITH DISCOUNTS FOR QUICK INSPECTION/PAYMENT:
In case any tenderer offers discount for coverage within a shorter period, for quicker
inspection/payment such offer is to be considered/compared only as per the price quoted (without

consideration of discounts). Conditional discount will not be considered for evaluation. However,
if the offer becomes L1, DVC may accept the discount while placing PO on the vendor.
36. POST TENDER REVISION / REVISED PRICE BIDS /SUPPLEMENTARY PRICE
BIDS:
Post tender revision will not be entertained in general.
However, invitation of supplementary price bids for items/components of a package (for which
none of the techno-commercially accepted bidders quoted for this in the original offer) and
invitation of Revised Price Bids, if found necessary by TIA, can be exercised for 2-part tendering
only when original price bids are yet to be opened. The Tender Committee should record the
circumstances leading to such invitation of Revised Price Bids/ Supplementary price bids.
Thereafter the same has to be approved by Tender Inviting Authority.
Once approved by the Tender Inviting Authority, this option has to be extended to all the techno-
commercially accepted bidders only. Moreover, the firms whose techno-commercial bids have
been evaluated, keeping their price bids in sealed condition, but found not to meet qualification
criterion/NIT terms & conditions are to be intimated for rejection of bids along with the return of
the unopened price bid.
Any revised price bids/Supplementary price bids submitted by any bidder after expiry of bid
submission date should be rejected if not specifically asked by Tender Inviting Authority.
37. TENDERS FROM AGENTS OF INDIAN MANUFACTURERS:
The consideration of tenders from authorized agents/distributors of Indian manufacturers will be
governed by the following guidelines:
a) If the tender is made by an authorized agent / distributor who is not registered with DVC, the
Dealing Officer would see whether he has furnished the following documents.
i) An authenticated copy of the written agreement between the manufacturer and the firm by
which the latter has been appointed as authorized agent/distributor.
ii) An undertaking from both the manufacturer and the tendering firm. For the same tender,
both manufacturer and Agent cannot take part simultaneously. However, the authorized
agent can represent for products of other manufacturer.
b) When considering the offers from authorized agents / distributors, care must be taken to
examine the agency agreement, particularly with regard to:
i) The period for which the authorized agent is appointed.
ii) The agent / distributor have the authority to enter into agreements and to sign contracts for
supply of stores/equipment on behalf of the manufacturers.
c) In case where the manufacturing firm happens to have been banned / suspended by
DVC/nodal Ministry, the offer of the authorised agent/distributor shall not be considered.

38. DELIVERY PERIOD CONSIDERATION:
No weightage should be given for early delivery of goods/early completion of works than that
mentioned in the NIT. In case any bidder offers belated delivery/ completion schedule for 2-part
bid, there may be option to pursue the bidder to match the delivery clause/ completion schedule of
NIT, provided same has not been declared in deviation schedule by the bidder. Date of delivery is
to be reckoned as the date of receipt of materials/goods by the consignee. However In case of ex-
works basis, the delivery date will be considered as per date of date of consignment note.
39. LIQUIDATED DAMAGE:
The time remains the essence of all major contracts / purchase orders awarded by DVC and all
deliverables under a Purchase Order / Work Order needs to be completed within the contractual
time schedule. Therefore, the provision has been kept in the contract/Purchase Order that in case
of delay in completion, for the reasons attributable to the contractor, Purchaser/owner reserves the
right to recover from the Vendor a sum equivalent to 0.5% of the value of the delayed materials /
work / equipment / spares for each week of delay and part thereof subject to maximum of 5% of
the total value of the contract as Liquidated Damage (LD).
LD is to be ascertained by the Indenting Officer.
In the event of any difficulty in deciding on the imposition of LD at the intermediate stages
(specially in works/turnkey contracts) during execution of any contract provisional time extension
may be granted with the approval of the competent authority as per delegation so that there is no
problem in accepting delayed supply/works. Such provisional time extension shall be without
prejudice to the right of DVC in levying LD and other rights as per terms of the contract.
However, there shall be no restriction in issuing final extension order at any stage of the work
wherever it is possible to do so.
In cases, where the works/supply/services extend beyond the contractual completion
schedule/delivery period and provisional extension order is issued without deciding on the
application of LD, no amount from the RA bill will be withheld in case where adequate retention
payment (over and above SD) remains with DVC as per terms of the contract (10% payment is
retained against supply and erection for turnkey contracts). In absence of such retention,
admissible LD amount as decided by concerned Chief Engineer shall be withheld from their
running bill till final decision on LD is taken.
Paying authority should not deduct the L.D. amount directly as the reasons for delay is not fully
known to them. On receipt of materials/execution of contracts after expiry of scheduled delivery
period/time of completion as per the contract, the Paying Authority should immediately clear the
payment without waiting for formal delivery period / time extension order, withholding (not
deduction) the extent of L.D. amount as applicable and inform the order issuing authority and
indenting officer to resolve/settle the applicability of L.D. clause within a reasonable period
enclosing the Vendor’s appeal if any, thereafter the withheld L.D. amount to be regularized
accordingly.

Normally the concerned Vendor should make an appeal before expiry of scheduled contractual
period to consignee and order issuing authority mentioning the reasons for delay.
If the delay is attributable to the vendor (can be ascertained as per calculation shown in the
foregoing) as assessed be the order executing authority, LD Clause shall be imposed on the
vendor even if the Corporation has not suffered any demonstrable actual loss for such delay, as it
is a pre-estimated compensation only.
Equipment and materials will be deemed to have been delivered only when all its components,
parts are delivered. If certain components are not delivered in time, the equipment & materials
will be considered as delayed until such time all their parts/ components are delivered.
While finalizing final time extension, if Liquidated Damage is levied in each and every
contract/Purchase Order undergoing delay in completion period, without examining the merit of
the case and the taking relevant aspects into account, such a decision will not only be against the
spirit of the contract/Purchase Order but may not ultimately be in the interest of DVC also. At the
same time, cases involving loss/damages to DVC due to delays by vendor should not be dealt
with leniently. Hence, in order to safeguard the long term and larger interest of DVC, the cases
for imposition of Liquidated Damage need to be dealt with logically and rationally, maintaining
consistency in approach by order executing authority. Accordingly, in the normal course, the
cases of time extension/Liquidated Damage will be dealt with as per guidelines given hereunder.
Every delay has a cost. LD is basically pre-estimated loss to DVC in case of delayed
delivery/delayed completion period of work. Damages, with reference to a contract, in the context
of Liquidated Damage, can be defined as the amount adjudged to be paid by vendor to the owner
as compensation for the loss sustained by the owner in consequence of the breach of contractual
obligations pertaining to time schedule. The fundamental principle underlying the theory of
damages is not punishment but compensation.
In contract / Purchase Order awarded by DVC delay in performance of the contract / Purchase
Order may be on account of one or more of the following:
(i) Reasons attributable to the owner viz. delay in giving approval of submitted drawings, in
sending Inspector to carry out inspection at vendor’s works, in issuing despatch clearance, in
issuance of road permit etc.
(ii) Reasons attributable to “Force Majeure” conditions as defined in the contract / Purchase
Order.
Reasons attributable to the vendor viz., delay in the submission of drawings for approval, in
getting the materials from vendor/vendor’s principal/manufacturer in abroad, in getting the raw
materials etc.
The proposal for time extension and decision on LD shall, accordingly, contain a detailed analysis
by the executing authority indicating reasons & period of delay on each account, as detailed
above, along with documentary evidence thereof to the extent feasible and relevant. Based on the
analysis, the period of delay due to ‘Force Majeure’ and for reasons attributable to DVC shall be

identified. The idea of the exercise is to find out the net delay, which is attributable to the vendor.
Experience of LD cases dealt with in the past reveals that the all the three types of delay
mentioned above are so much mixed up/intermingled, with one running concurrently with
another, at intermittent stages that it becomes extremely difficult to directly identify the delay
attributable to the vendor. As such, a practicable approach for working out the net delay
attributable to the vendor, as described below, shall be adopted.
i. Total delay that has occurred in a Contract =A
ii Cumulative period of delay on account of “Force Majeure” =B
iii. Cumulative period of delay on account of DVC =C
iv. Concurrent cumulative period in (ii) & (iii) =X
v. Cumulative period of delay on account of “Force Majeure” and =B+C–X
DVC
vi. Net period of delay attributable to the contractor, Z = A-(B+C-X)
In case the period Z, arrived at as per Para above, is not positive, the time extension, till the actual
completion of the supplies, shall be allowed without any LD.
In case the period Z, arrived at as per Para above is positive, LD will be imposed as per rate
indicated in the Purchase Order.
40. RISK PURCHASE:
The Purchaser reserves the right to purchase the material/spares/ equipment/service & works from
elsewhere at the sole risk and cost of the Vendor and recover all such extra cost incurred by the
Purchaser in procuring the material, services and works contract. The procedure to be followed is
given below.
a) After the expiry of the specified date of delivery/ completion period, a notice should be given to
the vendor for delivering the material/ completion the work immediately.
b) If the vendor fails to deliver the material/ complete the work, a final risk and cost notice is to be
served to the vendor by registered post with A/D, clearly indicating that if he fails to deliver the
materials/ complete the work within 7 days of receipt of the letter, the same shall be outsourced
from other sources at the risk and cost of the vendor. Such letter is to be issued with approval of
TAA.
c) The existing order has to be closed and action to be initiated for procurement / completion of
work &services of the balance items/ portion. While taking such action the defaulting vendor
may be given an opportunity against fresh enquiry/limited tender.
d) If it is found that price has come on the higher side then the difference between the original
price and the new price will be recovered from the vendor.

e) For the purpose of recovery of the amount, unpaid amount / security deposit/ SD by way of
BG, provided by the vendor will be adjusted first, If there is any balance left to be recovered,
the Vendor should be informed to deposit the money at the earliest.
f) If he fails to deposit the balance amount no further enquiry will be given as per banning
procedure.
g) In case the amount is considerable, legal action may be considered by TAA. However in case
of TAA is Board or Chairman, approval of concerned member shall be obtained.
Alternatively, the Purchaser may short close the Order stating the reason for not resorting to risk
purchase clause with approval of TAA.
In the event of recourse to alternatives as mentioned above, the Purchaser will have the right to
re-purchase the stores or complete the work, to meet urgency in requirement caused by Vendor’s
failure to comply with the schedule of delivery or completion of the work or services irrespective
of the fact whether the materials / equipments/ work/ service are similar or not.
41. REASONABILITY OF PRICES:

The Tender Committee has to assess the reasonableness of the offers. The Tenders with any
condition shall normally be rejected. However, Tenders with conditional rebates/discounts may
be considered, but without taking into account the conditional rebate/discount for the purpose of
evaluation of the bid price. Tender Committee should specifically draw the attention of TAA to
such conditional rebate/discount and to the fact that the evaluated cost of the Tenders is without
considering such rebates/discounts. Tenders with unconditional rebate can be accepted. The
following procedure may be considered for reasonability of rate:
1. Total amount quoted by valid Tenderer should be compared with the estimated cost put to
Tender duly enhanced by cost index, if available, and in absence of related indices, inflation @
6% p.a. or part there off may be considered during the period of preparation of estimate to
opening of the bid.
2. There is no need for preparing justification statement, in case the offered price of lowest
Tender is less than the enhanced estimated cost under sl.No.1 plus (+) 10 % thereof. However,
the acceptance of Tender, remaining provision of Works & Purchase Manual shall apply.
or
3. Reasonability of the rate of Tenders is to be seen and commented upon by the TC. While
accepting Tenders, rates of Tender of similar nature of Works placed within about last 3
months may be referred to. Similar works shall mean similar in nature, quantum, specification
and location in the near vicinity. Variation over market/justified rate upto +5% in total amount
can be ignored.
or
4. In case of urgency, if certified by the user section, variation upto 10% of revised market cost
under Sl.No.3 above may be allowed for recorded reason.

5. Tenders above the limit of 10% but upto 30% above of revised market cost under Sl.No.2 & 3
above, rate should be approved by Member (Tech.) is required where TAA is CE and above. In
other cases, approval of concerned Director is required.
Tender committee must ensure before submission of its recommendation to the TAA that
verification of documents/ credential of L-1 bidder is completed in all respect.
All the members of TC should furnish the certificate in the tender evaluation report that none of
them as any personal interest in any of the tenderers who have participated.
A responding firm can quote on firm price basis or variable price basis (but not on both), as
mentioned in NIT and each such offer will be considered accordingly. As far as possible, contract
should be entered on “firm price basis”, while contract on variable prices can be considered on
the merit of each case. As a general principle, no offer involving any uncertain or indefinite
liability or any condition of unusual character should be considered.
Whenever offer on variable price is asked, the standard price variation formula along with the
base date should be clearly spelt out in the NIT documents by TIA.
Negotiated prices also may be examined in a similar way. Justifications while making
recommendation to accept higher prices shall be recorded.
42. LACK OF COMPETITION:
Lack of competition exists if the following factors intervene:
a) The number of acceptable offers is less than three;
b) Ring prices have been quoted by all the tenderers (cartel formation);
c) The product of only one manufacturer has been offered by all the tenderers irrespective of the
number of quotations;
d) Store under purchase is chronically in short supply against which number of acceptable offers
never exceeds two.
In case it is observed that there is lack of competition for a particular tender enquiry, time
extension may be given once with the approval of the TIA. If it is found after the extension, that
there is no improvement of the response, normally the tender may be closed and action may be
taken for re-tendering after due analysis by QR committee, for poor response, and if required may
revisit the qualifying requirement. However TIA may permit opening of the bid in case or
urgency and same to be recorded in file.
43. PURCHASE PROPOSAL COVERAGE:
With the above analysis and evaluation of offer received against the enquiry, the Tender
Committee should give a comprehensive purchase proposal / work order proposal along with the
checklist (placed in the Annexure) for acceptance of TAA. All proposals should begin with
relevant facts and information, which is necessary for arriving at prudent decisions. Efforts should

be made to avoid unnecessary abstracts from quoting while giving purchase proposals/ work
order proposal. The contract proposal should include the following:-
1. Basic data of item/ work contract
a. Description of item/works.
b. Specification / scope of work.
2. Indent / Proposal Particulars
a. Name of the indenter / Proposer of work
b. Indent delivery period / scheduled completion period
c. Date of receipt of indent / proposal.
3. Tender Details
a. Type of tender enquiry
b. Date of tender invitation
c. Date of tender opening
d. Number of offers received i) Offers received in time:
ii) Late offers, if any:
4. Last Contract Price
5. Tolerance Availability
6. Detailed Purchase Proposal / Work Order Proposal
The terms and conditions offered by the firm(s) within the zone of consideration should be clearly
discussed by highlighting those terms and conditions which are at variance with our General
Conditions of Contract (GCC).
44. COVERAGE OF DEMAND IN INDENT:
Before considering the coverage of the indent against the tenders received against the enquiry, the
Tender Committee should examine the possibility of coverage of quantity against the tolerance
clauses in the existing contracts.
Quantity left after Utilization of tolerance clauses should be covered so as to ensures that-
i) Contracts are awarded to the tenderers who have the requisite financial, technical and
production capabilities necessary to perform the contract.
ii) The quantities are covered in keeping with the quantitative capacity meeting the delivery
requirement.

45. CONSIDERATION OF PURCHASE PROPOSAL/WORK ORDER PROPOSAL:
Before recommending or taking decision on a contract proposal, the Tender Committee are
advised to check the comparative/ranking statements of the offers prepared vis-à-vis the tenders
received so as to avoid the possibility of any mistake and examine carefully the following aspects
to ensure that the proposal:
a) Brings out the reliability of the firms whether they are registered with DGS&D/NSIC/, etc., for
the store as per the required specification, date on which they are registered and if
unregistered their capacity/capability based on the report furnished by technical authority,
financial status, etc., as per the departmental rules and regulations.
b) Avoids the tendency to place orders on firms quoting low rates but with poor or no prospect of
supply/ no prospect of completing the work as per the delivery requirements/ completion
schedule of the indent/proposal.
c) Gives due consideration to the price aspect whether firm or variable, and, in the latter case, the
elements affecting the price.
i) Where quotations are invited exclusive of Sales Tax/VAT, the Tender Committee should
keep in view the amount of Excise Duty & Cess / and Sales Tax/VAT wherever the same is
stipulated as an extra item in the tender and is leviable under the law. In working out the
ultimate cost to the indenter, at the time of tender decision, the element of Excise Duty / Ed.
Cess / Sales Tax / VAT should also be taken into consideration.
ii) All purchase proposals should clearly mention whether or not prices quoted in tenders are
inclusive or exclusive of Sales Tax / VAT/ Service Tax. The tender rates reproduced on the
purchase proposals should be followed by the remarks such as “No Sales Tax” or “Sales
Tax / VAT / Service Tax Extra”, and in the latter case the name of the State Sales Tax /
VAT / Sales Tax with the rate thereof based on the firm’s stipulation in tender should be
indicated.
d) Price reasonability to be analyzed for acceptance of the offer by comparing it with LPP/ last
work order value, market price etc.
e) Gives due consideration to the delivery period/ completion schedule offered vis-à-vis the
requirement of the indenter/ proposer.
f) Analyses the past performance of the firm, if they have executed any orders or if they are in
the process of executing any contract(s).
g) While proposing a second order on a firm who has not started supplies/ works against their
earlier order, the total load on the firm should be kept in mind together with their financial
capability as well as the capacity of the firm.
h) Leads to placement of order on firm(s) who have agreed to abide by the Conditions of Contract
and Clauses of Tender Enquiry and that they have not stipulated any abnormal conditions in
their offer (s).

i) Results in placement of order for the imported stores on F.O.B/F.A.S basis; for any departure,
the proposal is to be condoned by the concerned Director.
j) Leads to placement of import order on Indian Agents enlisted with DGS&D under
Compulsory Enlistment of Indian Agents Scheme of Finance (as per GOI) and that the amount
of agent’s commission, if any, agreed to between the foreign principals and the Indian Agent is
specifically disclosed and the Agency Commission is paid in Indian rupees only.
k) Considers the possibility to secure supplies and after sales service, etc., on reasonable terms,
directly without the involvement of an agent.
46. POST TENDER NEGOTIATIONS:
Negotiations, after opening of tenders, should normally be discouraged. Negotiations vitiate the
sanctity of the tendering system and reduce the credibility of the organisation. Quality becomes
the casualty. Unless some definite evidence is forthcoming to show that the prices/rates received
are unreasonably high, negotiations should not be resorted to at all.
No approval from tender inviting authority may be required in post-bid negotiation with bidder
for seeking techno-commercial clarification (having no financial implication) and additional
data/clarification from the participating bidders when the price bids are yet to be opened.
However, minutes and correspondence related to such clarification shall be placed in the file.
In general, there should not be any price negotiations. Price negotiations if at all shall be an
exception and only in the case of proprietary items or in the case of items with limited source of
supply. Counter offers tantamount to negotiations and should be treated at par with negotiation.
Negotiations can be recommended by Tender Committee in exceptional circumstances only after
due application of mind and recording valid, logical reasons justifying negotiations. In case of
inability to obtain the desired results by way of reduction in rates and negotiations prove
infructuous; satisfactory explanations are required to be recorded by the committee who
recommended the negotiations. The tender committee shall be responsible for lack of application
of mind in case its negotiations have only unnecessarily delayed the award of works/contract. In
case of L1 backing out there should be retendering.
In the above backdrop, price negotiation with L1 bidder can be taken up with the approval of one
step superior than the Tender Inviting Authority as per relevant DFP. If the tender inviting
authority is CMM/Plant Chief /Sr. CE/CE/HOD approval for price negotiation with L1 bidder
may be obtained from them without going to one step superior. In all cases negotiation will be
conducted by respective level based TC.

TC at HQ AWARD OF CONTRACT
BOARD/CHN AWARD OF CONTRACT
48. EXTENSION OF VALIDITY OF OFFERS:

The Tender Committee should make all the efforts to ensure that the contract finalization decision
is taken as early as possible and within the original validity period of the tenders.
The tendency to request the tenderers to extend the period of validity of offers should be avoided.
This is of considerable importance, for, apart from the delay which would invariably occur in
covering the demand, and thereby cause delay in the receipt of stores by the consignee/ delay in
completing a specific work, there is also a risk of the firms refusing to accede to the request for
extension or the firm withdrawing the offers, or extending the offer with revised rates, all of
which might lead to avoidable expenditure.
In cases where seeking extension of the offers becomes inevitable, action should be taken up 8 to
10 days in advance of the expiry of offers and the letter asking for extension should be issued to
the firms at least one week in advance.
The letter seeking extension of offer should be issued under Postal Certificate in order to avoid
any complaints from the firms that they have not received such letters. For this purpose, the
acknowledgement of letters sent under Postal Certificate should be placed in the relevant case
file. Fax/E-mail can also be used for this purpose and relevant documents be placed in the file.
While submitting the purchase proposals / works proposal, it is essential that the date upto which
the offers are open/have been extended should be indicated clearly in the purchase proposals /
works proposal so that the final decision on the purchase proposals/ works proposal is taken at the
appropriate level within the validity period. In cases, where the offers have been extended due to
inescapable reasons, the fact must clearly be stated in the purchase proposal/works proposal as
under:

“Original validity period of tender expired on………….Tenderers requested to extend the offers
upto……………This is first extension, second extension, third extension etc.”
When purchase proposals / works proposal are submitted after extension of offers, it should be
mentioned therein that such and such firms have not agreed to extend the offers and have not been
taken into consideration, such and such firms have agreed to the extension proposed and
confirmations from such and such firms are yet to be received.
Tenderers whose quotations cannot be considered otherwise for obvious reasons such as
unsatisfactory capacity report, late / delayed tender / technically rejected, should not be requested
for extension of their offers.
All Dealing Officers who are to implement the decision regarding purchase / works /
services should make sure that the decision regarding purchase / works / services as recorded by
the competent authority is clear for taking further action. If there is any doubt, the file should be
put up immediately to the competent authority for clarification.

53. TOLERANCE IN PURCHASE ORDER
QUANTITY:
The suppliers are expected to deliver exact quantities of material as specified in the Purchase
Order/turnkey contracts. But wherever quantities are in Weights, volumes or in lengths, there may
be cases where the supplier has made supplies in excess or short. If any tolerance has not been
incorporated in the Purchase Order/work order/turnkey contract then ± 5% of the order
value should be considered as the tolerance limit and the Purchase Order/work order/turnkey
contract shall automatically be treated as amended to that extent.
54. PRE-DISPATCH INSPECTION (PDI), RECEIPT OF MATERIAL,
ETC:
PDI Clause for a particular tender/enquiry to be incorporated, if felt necessary, by the indenter.
Once it is incorporated in the purchase order/contract, it should not be waived in the
normal course by way of amendment. However in case of extreme exigencies, PDI can be
waived by the Chief Engineer on the basis of appropriate justification by the order issuing
Authority.
If a PO/LOI/LOA incorporates PDI, Inspection Engineer will carry out the relevant
tests/inspection as per relevant standard at vendor’s works. After successful testing/inspection,
despatch clearance is to be issued by the Inspecting Engineer as per format incorporated in this
manual. For this purpose, Inspection Engineer may contact his superior over telephone/fax, if
needed for issuance of despatch clearance.
Before proceeding for inspection at vendor’s works, the Inspection Engineer should contact the
vendor with the help of consignee via phone/fax to know the exact number of way
bills/road permit required to despatch the materials. Consignee should hand over the required
number of road permits/way bills to the Inspection Engineer before he leaves for PDI. The
Inspector should hand over the way bills/Road Permits to the vendor along with dispatch
clearance. Responsibility for providing the requisite number of road permits/way bills to the
Inspection Engineer before leaving for inspection lies with the concerned consignee.
Paying Authority should not insist for extension of submitted BG, if needed, due to late receipt of
the materials /delayed completion of works. The same should be taken care of by the
Order Issuing Authority within the validity period of the submitted BG.
Where PDI Clause has not been incorporated in the PO/contract, consignee would send the Road
Permit/ Way Bill as per the written request of the vendor. He would check the mode of
despatch and the Insurance Cover being taken. After receipt of the materials at stores,
consignee will arrange for site inspection by calling the Indenting Officer by sending an arrival
report.
Consignee would send all the relevant documents to the concerned Accounts Office for checking,
verifying and passing of the bills for payments to the vendor. The Accounts Office would see
all the relevant documents and in case of discrepancy found as per Purchase Order/work order
shall seek clarification before releasing the payment. Consignee/ Indenter would also send the
copies of site inspection reports/PDI reports to the purchase order issuing authority.
55. PAYMENT

A clause in the tender enquiry to be incorporated that the interest free advance would be
deemed as interest bearing advance at a Bsae rate of SBI plus 3.5% if the contract is terminated
due to default of the contractor. However rate of interest should be applied for calculation of
interest on the advance amount in reset basis (i.e. not fixed rate of interest, it may go on changing
during the period of advance remain unadjusted) based on the change of base rate time to time.
Advance should be recovered within the original completion

time.
II) Other advance: provision for 100% advance (interest free) without submission of BG may
also be allowed in dealing with procurement on single tender basis from CPSU/Govt. controlled
autonomous Organisation / Universities / Laboratories/ Reputed Private Manufacturer as OEM

Where a claim of Sales Tax/VAT is preferred and admitted, the supplier must satisfy that he is a
registered dealer under the Sales Tax Act and possesses a Certificate of Registration in the firms
name in which the supply is made and shall in proof thereof, while submitting bills for payment,
furnish the, number, date and other particulars of such certificate.
For materials which are ordered on weights/ volume, the payment should be as per
measurement at DVC’s stores / sites irrespective of the quantity mentioned in the challans /
documents, unless there is explicit provision in the Purchase Order/contracts. If there is 3rd party
inspection, in the above cases, 3rd party inspection charges would be as per Weight/ Volume
received at DVC end. The statutory charges and duties, however, have to be paid on actuals as per
documents received from the vendor.
The contractor/vendor shall furnish the following certificate to the Paying Authority along
with each invoice/bill against payment for supplies made against any supply order/RC with
longer completion period (more than a year), if the same is placed on firm price basis. ‘I / we
certify that there has been no reduction in the sale price of the stores of description identical to
this item, supplied to any person/organization and such stores have not been offered/sold by

58.ANNUAL MAINTENANCE/ RATE CONTRACTS (AMC/ ARC) FOR

CIVIL/ELECTRICAL/ MECHANICAL /C&I WORKS AND RATE CONTRACTS:
1. Annual maintenance work should be planned well in advance for different areas. If such works
cannot be undertaken through departmental employees then a proper assessment should
be made, estimates made, possibility of giving work front etc. checked and then with the
administrative approval of tender inviting authority, NIT may be issued
through Newspapers/websites or limited tenders may be invited from firms depending on
departmental estimates companies having requisite technical, financial, personnel resources.
Annual Maintenance Contract for any works/service contracts to a particular firm or company
should be for one year/two year at a time and subsequently fresh tendering action should
be taken well in advance. In the event, fresh contract cannot be concluded in time and contract
is considered essential for the purpose of operation then approval of extension may be obtained
from the original approving authority for one more year and no further extension beyond this is
desirable.

Annual Maintenance Contract for any works/service contracts to OEM/OES may be for five
year at a time w i t h P V i f a n y s u b j e c t t o a p p r o v a l o f c o n c e r n e d D i r e c t o r

shall be obtained.
However in case of hiring of vehicle, period of contract with suitable PV clause may
be considered for initially 3 years and followed by one / two year extension depending on the
performance but total extension not more than 2 years.
Site Maintenance contracts may be entered into rate contract after finalising the detailed Job
specification/description. For working out the security deposit, where the contract is extended
more than one year, if the contractor has submitted BG for Security Deposit cum performance
guarantee, the same is required to get extended accordingly. Alternatively the contractor may
submit a new BG and the earlier BG may be released.
The contracts for transport would be a service contract and not to be termed as Works Contract.
The Public Sector undertakings if awarded such contracts would be required to work
as
Contractors and if sub-contractors are engaged after obtaining of approval of TIA.
The
payments to contractors would be released after proper verification of documents, both by the
indenting department and the Accounts.
2. Identification of items to be covered under the Rate Contract.

level for a long period may not be feasible to optimize inventory cost, shall be covered under
Rate Contract.
(b) Items like Reinforcement Steel, Cement, Office stationeries, Chemicals, Lubricants, Petrol &
Diesel, G.I. Pipes, Medicines, Transportation Welding Electrodes, Packing (both Metallic and
Non-Metallic), Fastens, Hand Tools, Cutting Tools and Abrasives, Surface Coating Materials
(Paints etc), Bearings &Accessories, V Belts, Lab. Chemicals, Office Furniture, Guest House
Furniture, Switches, Plug Tops and Misc. similar materials, lamps, florescent Tubes, Fuses etc
etc. may be brought under Rate Contract. This list is only exemplary and not exhaustive
and
many more items can be considered for rate contract like Conveyor Belts,
Personal
Computers, and structural Steel
etc.
(c) Indents complete in all respect of item for the requisitioning department shall reach
the procurement section well in advance.
(d) After receipt of indents, a tender committee comprising representatives of
Purchase/Technical Section/TIA, Finance & User Department will decide and finalize the
items for which Rate Contract to be made. The same is to be approved by CMM/Station
Chief/CE. After deciding the items for which RC to be made, sources of procurement
may be standardized using methodology described earlier.
PROCEDURE FOR RATE
CONTRACT:
(a) The items which are borne on DGS&D Rate or Running Contract may be purchased
through the DGS&D Stores of standard type, other than those required in small quantities
only, which are in common and regular demand and the prices of which are not subject
to appreciable market fluctuations. The CMM shall arrange to obtain the latest copies of all
the Rate/Running Contract from the DGS&D from time to time.
The CMM may be declared as Direct Demanding Officers for various rate contracts
finalised by the DGS&D keeping in view the requirement, budget availability.
On receipt of the consolidated requirements from the various Indenting Officers the
CMM
shall examine if the materials in question are borne on DGS&D Rate
Contract.
In case of items on Rate Contract, CMM shall take necessary action for placing the
supply orders through form -86for specific requirement directly to DG&SD with 100%
advance in DD form plus applicable administrative charges.
b) In case of single source rate contract, offer may be asked from the party and based on the
offer, the rate contract may be finalised after negotiations, if felt necessary, on the prices and
terms and conditions with the approval as per DFP and laid down procedure of
negotiation as discussed earlier.
c) Before finalisation of rate contract, other projects shall also be contacted / consulted to share
information regarding prices etc. and performance of the vendors.
d) Rate contract may be finalized generally for a period of one/ two year and the same may be
extended for another year at the discretion of TAA with justification of such extension to be
recorded in writing. However, in case of some spares to be decided by the Plant Chiefs,
the rate contract may be done for three years without any provisions of further extension of
the contract beyond three years. While making such rate contract for three years
adequate measures like variable price etc. may be adopted to take care of the fluctuation in
market price. The rate contract should clearly specify the monetary limit as well.
e) Copies of rate contracts shall be sent to other projects for their information and finalisation
of rate contracts, if any. One more copy of the rate contract shall also be sent to
Corporate Materials Management and published in DVC website.

f) Approval and other guidelines for finalisation of rate contracts will be as per approved purchase
procedure. The Direct Demanding Officers (DDO) as mentioned in RC shall issue supply order
directly to the vendor as per terms & conditions of RC after ensuring fund provision and
keeping supply order quantity within his demand placed before RC Issuing Authority.
g) In order to widen the base of the supplier /contractor for determining qualifying technical
requirement, the average quarterly projected quantity requirement of all the projects ( instead
of the total quantity of all the projects) may be considered by TIA.
h) The supplier thus qualified and L1 may or may not be able to meet the quantity requirement of
other bigger projects. In order to overcome the difficulties for supplying higher quantity to a
project the bidder who is capable of supplying the same may be considered provided he
matches the L1 price but the same may be clearly spelt out in NIT.
i) To have reliable and assured supply, the TIA may decide the splitting of the total quantity
between two or three parties provided they match L1 price. While doing so, first preference
will be given to L2, then L3 and so on. The L1 party should get not less than 60% requirement
of any plant. Balance quantity may be distributed suitably. The split ratio of the quantity to be
ordered is to be decided by TIA and be incorporated in the NIT.
j) The contractor shall furnish the following certificate to the Paying Authority along with each
invoice/bill against payment for supplies made against the rate contract/any supply order with
longer completion period (more than a year), if the same is placed on firm price basis.
‘I/We certify that there has been no reduction in sale price of the stores of description identical
to the stores supplied to the Govt. under the contract herein and such stores have not been
offered/sold by me/us to any person/organization including the purchaser or any Deptt. of the
Central or State Govt. or any statutory undertaking of the Central or State Govt. or as the case
may be upto the date of bill / the date of completion of supplies against all supply order placed
during the currency of the rate contract at a price lower than the price charged to the
Government under the contract.’
l) The concerned dealing Officer at the same time will check the market price for the subject item
from Newspapers/Journals/Website etc. as to whether there has been any fall in price during
the period of contract and an appropriate action to be initiated accordingly to safeguard the
interest of the Corporation. Necessary price fall clause should be part of special condition of
contract (SCC).
m) In case, the TIA apprehends poor response from the prospective vendors for Rate Contract on
firm price basis because of volatile market condition, then the offer may be asked on variable
price basis but not with both i.e. not with firm price and variable price basis simultaneously.
“The price basis” as decided by TIA is to be clearly mentioned in the NIT document itself.
n) In case variable price basis is preferred by TIA in order to get adequate response as per
prevailing market conditions, the NIT document should specify the applicable PV formula,
base date and with/without ceiling limit. In that case, bids are to be evaluated without loading
the ceiling limit, if any. However, any ceiling limit, if TIA specifically spells out in the bid

document, will be used for the purpose of payment only. The payment of variable component
as calculated on the basis of PV formula will be made on actuals but limited to ceiling limit, if
any. If the bids are received with “price basis” not as per NIT, the same should be treated as
“deviation” in commercials terms and to be dealt accordingly. Offer may be rejected for non-
compliance of above provided necessary stipulations in this regard has been made in the NIT.
The following may also be noted while dealing with procurement of critical items/spares:
a. Certain critical items/spares as decided by plant chief /CE/ SR.CE may be procured from
OEM/OES only.
b. Certain other critical items/spares may be procured from reputed/standard vendors after
declaring them as ‘standard source of procurement’ as per source standardization certificate
issued by station chief/HOD/SR.CE.
c. If a firm does not produce letter from authorized signatory of OEM stating that they are the
sole authorized dealer, STE on behalf of OEM cannot be given to them.

facilitated during post order stage.
