Tender at a Glance

The tender document specifies the bid closing and opening schedule, 180-day bid validity, Ministry/Department details, contract period, and the absence of experience/turnover relaxation for MSEs and startups.

Key Financial and Eligibility Requirements

Important note on turnover, experience and net worth

The uploaded bid document does not provide a clearly stated numeric minimum average annual turnover, minimum net worth or minimum number of years of experience. Therefore, these figures should not be added to the website as mandatory thresholds unless they are subsequently confirmed through the GeM bid, corrigendum or applicable ATC.

The tender specifically states that MSE and Startup relaxation for years of experience and turnover is not provided. It also requires supporting documentation where a bidder seeks an exemption from Experience/Turnover criteria.

The bid further states that the estimated bid value is used for determining eligibility criteria relating to turnover, past performance and project/past experience, but the actual numeric thresholds are not shown in the uploaded bid pages.

Scope of Work

The tender is for on-site/offline professional training on AnyBody Software at the buyer's location. The detailed scope document describes a one-week training programme covering five working days, combining lectures and hands-on work on participant models. It indicates capacity for approximately 10–15 participants, use of the latest version of the AnyBody Modeling System software, and provision of software licences for the duration of training.

The proposed training programme covers the following major areas:

1. Introduction to AnyBody Software and AnyScript
2. Demonstration and tutorial sessions
3. AMMR – overview of body parts and body model configuration
4. Kinematics
5. Inverse Dynamics
6. MoCap model
7. Fatigue modelling
8. Hands-on sessions

The scope document also refers to 10 hours of online support after completion of the course. It notes that the existing software licence is out of maintenance and recommends reinstating software maintenance for one year to enable the support arrangement.

The technical specification in the GeM bid describes the training as offline, on weekdays, at the buyer's location, at an advanced level, under the IT and Software/IT Certification categories. Certification is required and is specified as an OEM Certificate. The training partner type is stated as Individual Trainer.

Training Quantity and Duration

The bid specifies:

1. Approximately 1 batch
2. Approximately 5 training days
3. 15 students per batch
4. Offline training at the buyer's location

Important Scope Clarification

There is a duration discrepancy within the uploaded documents that bidders should carefully verify before submission.

The detailed scope document describes 7.5 hours per day for five working days, whereas the GeM technical specification records 8 hours per day.
For tender publication purposes, SkillCouncils.com should therefore avoid presenting either figure as conclusively overriding the other and should advise bidders to verify the latest GeM bid/clarification or seek clarification from the buyer.

Submission Guidelines

The procurement is conducted through the Government e-Marketplace (GeM). The bid is a Two Packet Bid, with technical and financial components handled through the GeM bidding process. Reverse Auction is enabled under the H1 Highest Priced Bid Elimination rule.

Bidders should:

1. Maintain an active and eligible GeM seller/service-provider profile.
2. Review the complete GeM bid, specifications, ATC and applicable service-specific terms before submission.
3. Upload the required certificates and documents requested under the ATC.
4. Upload OEM/authorisation documentation wherever applicable.
5. Upload supporting evidence where any Experience/Turnover exemption is claimed.
6. Ensure that technical and commercial information is complete and consistent.

9. Keep the EMD documentation ready in the prescribed form where exemption is not applicable.
10. Monitor the GeM portal for corrigenda, clarifications and changes to the bid schedule.

The applicable GeM GTC provides that bidders should place price elements in the financial bid and not disclose price elements in the technical bid in a two-packet process.

Physical Submission

The primary bid submission is online through GeM. Under the applicable GeM GTC, where Bid Security/EMD is submitted in a form requiring an original instrument, the scanned copy is uploaded online and the hard copy is to be submitted to the buyer within five working days of bid opening.

The bid itself also states that physical-document submission cannot be imposed as a prerequisite for qualification through an ATC clause contrary to GeM rules.

Important Tender Dates

The bid document records the tender date as 14 August 2026 and the closing/opening schedule as 25 August 2026 at 12:00 PM and 12:30 PM respectively.
Pre-Bid Meeting: No pre-bid meeting date, time or venue is stated in the uploaded bid documents. It should therefore be listed as "Not Mentioned in Tender Document" rather than assuming that no clarification facility will be available.

Document Checklist for Bidders

The following checklist is prepared from the documents expressly identified in the bid and its ATC. Bidders should cross-check the live GeM bid before final submission.

• Valid GeM Seller/Service Provider profile
• Certificate requested under the Buyer Added ATC
• OEM Authorization Certificate, wherever applicable
• Authorisation Form/Certificate for authorised distributors/service providers
• OEM/Original Service Provider details in the authorisation document
• Additional Document 1 requested under ATC
• Additional Document 2 requested under ATC
• Additional Document 3 requested under ATC
• Supporting documents for any claimed Experience/Turnover exemption

• Technical proposal/compliance documents
• Financial bid/price quotation through the prescribed GeM mechanism
• Documents supporting MSE preference, if being claimed
• Valid Udyam-related documentation where applicable for MSE benefits
• Required declarations/undertakings under the applicable GeM bid and GTC

The bid expressly lists the certificate requested under ATC, OEM Authorization Certificate and three additional ATC documents, while requiring supporting documents from bidders claiming Experience/Turnover exemption.

Reverse Auction and Evaluation

The tender uses Total Value Wise Evaluation and enables Reverse Auction. The applicable RA rule is H1 – Highest Priced Bid Elimination.

Under the bid conditions, the technically qualified highest-priced bidder is generally excluded from the RA, subject to the exceptions specified in the bid. These include situations where only two or three technically qualified bidders remain and certain MSE or Make-in-India price-band conditions apply.

The bid requires a minimum of three bids to disable automatic bid extension, with the bid capable of being auto-extended for three days, up to three times.

Tender Analysis: Key Points for Prospective Bidders

From a tender-compliance perspective, the most important issue is that the procurement is focused on a specialised AnyBody Software training requirement, rather than generic IT training. Prospective bidders should therefore ensure that their technical submission clearly demonstrates their capability to deliver advanced AnyBody Software training and the required OEM certification.

The scope also places emphasis on practical learning, including demonstrations, modelling, kinematics, inverse dynamics, MoCap, fatigue modelling and hands-on sessions.

Another important consideration is the requirement for OEM-related documentation where an authorised distributor or service provider participates. Bidders should ensure that the authorisation documentation is complete and contains the required OEM/Original Service Provider details.

The tender also provides MSE purchase preference, but MSE bidders should ensure that their GeM/Udyam credentials and service-provider status satisfy the applicable policy requirements.

What Bidders Should Verify Before Submission

As a tender advisory measure, bidders should carefully verify the following before submitting their offer:

First, confirm the latest version of the GeM bid and check for any corrigendum or clarification.

Second, clarify the training duration discrepancy. The detailed scope states 7.5 hours per day, while the GeM technical specification states 8 hours per day.
Third, confirm all documents listed under the ATC and ensure that no requested attachment is omitted.

Fourth, ensure that any claim for EMD exemption is backed by valid and verifiable documentation.

Fifth, bidders should not assume a numeric turnover, net-worth or experience threshold that is not stated in the tender documents reviewed for this website update.

Sixth, prospective bidders should monitor GeM for any amendment affecting the bid closing date, technical specifications, EMD, eligibility conditions or submission requirements.
