Frequently asked questions
Is OEM authorisation required for machinery tenders?
Most machinery tenders ask bidders who are not manufacturers to submit an OEM authorisation in the given format. It confirms supply, warranty and service support. Without it, the bid may be rejected. Confirm in the tender document / NIT.
Where are machinery tenders published?
State departments publish on their state e-procurement portals, central offices on CPPP (eprocure.gov.in), and many goods and services are bought on GeM. The tender notice names the portal and the buyer.
Can BidNexa help with machinery tenders?
Yes. Bid Nexa checks eligibility, prepares documents and reviews your bid before you submit it yourself. We are independent and not affiliated with any portal or buyer.
