How they buy

Indian public procurement runs through several parallel systems rather than one. Central ministries and most states publish on GePNIC-based e-procurement portals (eprocure.gov.in and its state equivalents), commodity and service purchases increasingly go through the Government e-Marketplace (GeM), and large public sector undertakings — power utilities, coal and mining companies, oil marketing companies, railways — operate their own portals. Municipal bodies, development authorities and universities publish independently again, which is why a supplier watching only one portal sees a fraction of the market.

Across the space & satellite notices we currently hold for India, the most common form is the open tender or invitation to bid, followed by prequalification. Each has its own rules — see RFP, RFQ and EOI compared and tendering procedures explained.

What qualifies you

Bidding almost always requires a Class III digital signature certificate, registration on the relevant portal, GST and PAN details, and audited accounts for the turnover test. Most works tenders set prior-experience thresholds expressed as completed similar works of a stated value within the last three to seven years. Registered micro and small enterprises can claim exemptions from earnest money and tender fees, and a share of central procurement is reserved for them — but the claim must be made in the bid with the Udyam certificate attached.

Before committing effort, it is worth running a deliberate bid/no-bid decision and checking your submission against the responsiveness checklist.
