When a firm is approved by RDSO/PU/CORE as developmental vendors with a condition that they will have to get Protype approval/Field Trial done of a specified quantity before they could make any further supplies. Developmental vendors with such conditional approval will be given consideration in following manner for quantity allocation: I. If there is a quantity specified by the approving agency for field trials for developmental vendors in the approved list, then Developmental Vendor with conditional approval (either requiring prototype approval or field trial) must give a declaration in his offer about the total quantity of the orders placed on it, for the tendered item. In such case, order may be placed for balance quantity available for field trial after setting off the quantity already ordered on the tenderer, as per his declaration. However, maximum overall quantity for ordering on vendors, whose prototype is not cleared as on the date of tender opening, shall be limited to 5% of the Net Procurable Quantity (NPQ). If tenderer fails to submit the declaration about the previously received ordered quantity in his offer, then it will be considered that he has already exhausted the quantity on orders, permissible for field trials and no further order shall be placed on it. If no quantity for field trial is mentioned in the Approved vendor list, it will be taken as 20% of NPQ. The status of the vendor w.r.t. prototype approval/field trial shall be reckoned as on the date of tender opening as per the approved list. (Note : Please also refer the other conditions related with implementation and applicability of eligibility criteria that are mentioned in Para 1.2 of general conditions of tender in section-II of NWR tender condition (SBD)
