Important Instructions
The bid is evaluated group-wise - individual UKR Fixed / Mobile groups may go to different L1 bidders, so bidders can quote selectively if they only manufacture one variant.
BoQ compliance and supporting documents are mandatory; any deviation from the Total Knee Replacement Implant (V2) GeM specification can lead to technical rejection.
The OEM Authorization Certificate is mandatory; OEM Annual Turnover must be at least Rs 18 lakh (last 3 years).
Past Performance at 50 percent of bid quantity is a high threshold - bidders should have a strong PSU / Government UKR-supply track record.
Only MSE manufacturers / OEMs (not traders) with valid Udyam Registration can avail complete relaxation on turnover.
Reverse Auction follows H1-Highest Priced Bid Elimination - the highest quoting technically qualified bidder will be excluded, except in GeM GTC exceptions (2-3 qualified bidders, single OEM left, MSE / MII preference).
Time allowed for technical clarifications during evaluation is 2 days.
