Frequently asked questions
Who issues water works tenders?
Water supply and sanitation works are usually tendered by public health engineering or drinking water departments, urban bodies and water boards. Rural water works may also be tendered under state and central schemes. The tender names the buying department and the scheme, if any.
Where are water works tenders published?
State departments use their state e-procurement portals, central ministries and public sector units use CPPP (eprocure.gov.in), and many goods and services are bought on GeM. Each tender notice names the portal, the buyer and the closing date, so check the notice before you prepare documents.
