Types of Tenders on IREPS: Works, Supply & e-Auction Explained
These three categories operate quite differently on IREPS, and knowing which applies to your business shapes how you should prepare.
These three categories operate quite differently on IREPS, and knowing which applies to your business shapes how you should prepare.
Works tenders cover physical execution contracts — construction, demolition, track maintenance, and similar projects — typically requiring technical capability demonstration and, for larger contracts, a Performance Bank Guarantee.
Supply tenders involve providing materials or equipment to Railways, evaluated on technical compliance with specifications alongside commercial terms.
E-auctions, most commonly for scrap and surplus material disposal, operate as live, competitive bidding events rather than a document-based tender process — a fundamentally different transaction model requiring different preparation.
