How to find right Railway Tender

Indian Railways have long been the backbone of Indian economic, political and social system. Indian Railways has become not just the main public transport system but also the lifeline of the major chunk of Indian economy. Having a total network of 63, 104 km, this is also world’s one of the busiest and heaviest carriers of the world. Having such a length and breadth requires round the clock maintenance. This industry is always on the go for all the developmental and constructional tasks.

These tasks requires issuing of tenders, calling out for people from government, semi-government, PSUs, state and autonomous bodies who can take the responsibility of the tasks and complete it on time. These tasks could be repairing any cabin, making signage boards, providing bed rolls, cleanliness task etc.

Indian Railways has adopted a method it was long planning about called e-procurement. It is undoubtedly the most reliable method if one aims to deal with the government. Northern Railways introduced this system to bring in transparency in the entire system. It covers all types of tenders which are issued by engineering and stores department.

All the government railways tenders are published on the official web site of the Northern Railways. The vendor can easily download all the tender documents directly or through different tenders websites available on web. Even the following step, that is, submission of the Railway Tenders can also be done online. The vendor can submit offers electronically with digital signatures. The vendor need not worry about the security of his documents as electronic tendering system has all required security aspects as are their in the manual system. The most interesting point is that the vendors can see that the tabulation statement of all the offers once the advertised tender opens and can also check the status of their respective tenders. The security money needs to be deposited through a pre-described payment gateway plus the information concerning the purchase order is sent to the vendor through emails.

Half of the worries of the vendors regarding the issuing of government railway tenders, scrutinizing all the point concerning the tender, raising the right bid, checking the status of one’s tenders and many others are hereby absorbed as the e-tendering system tries its level best to eradicate corruption and ensure transparency.

Railways tenders not only bring along big businesses but also a chance for the vendor to earn big as dealing with government never asks for any second thought in the mind. With e-procurement system coming in, the vendor need not run and conduct all the associated tasks manually. He just needs to keep an eagle’s eye on the web portals and sites which keep on speculating the probability of issuing of any railway tender in the near future and the amount of bidding to be raised for it. He just need to check his capability and his field of specializing before finally standing for the tender.
