Water Resources Department Tender

The class eligibility requirement to bid or participate in this tender is "A & B" Class, and equivalent class registered under various government departments. Alternatively, it is also mentioned that bidders registered as S.C. & S.T. Contractor up to “B” Class are eligible. Therefore, the class eligibility requirement can be considered as Class B, or more broadly, Class A and Class B.

The bid capacity required in the given tender is related to the minimum quantities of important and critical items of work. The minimum quantities are calculated as 40% of the estimated annual quantity of execution. For Wet Mix Macadam (WMM), the minimum quantity is 0.4 * 15,028 = 6,011.2 Cum, and for Bituminous Macadam (BM) and Semi-dense Bituminous concrete (SDBC), it is 0.4 * 7,514 = 3,005.6 Cum. Additionally, the bid capacity required is also related to the bid amount in comparison to the estimated cost. The bid must include a definite percentage excess or less up to two decimal of the amount of work. The bid capacity required is 1% of the estimated contract value (ECV) as the Bid Security or Earnest Money Deposit (EMD), calculated as EMD or Bid Security = 1% of ECV. The conditions for Additional Performance Security are as follows: 1. Below 5%: No Additional Performance Security is required. 2. From 5% and above and below 10%: 50% of the difference between the estimated cost put to tender and the bid amount is required as Additional Performance Security. 3. From 10% and above: 150% of the difference between the estimated cost put to tender and the bid amount is required as Additional Performance Security. The formulas for calculating price adjustments for various components are also provided, including adjustments for other materials, cement, steel, and bitumen components. The bid capacity required in terms of value and formulas is related to the comparison of the bid amount to the estimated cost, particularly the conditions around bids being within 15% of the estimated cost. However, a specific "bid capacity" formula or value is directly mentioned as the minimum quantities of critical items and the bid security or earnest money deposit.
