Frequently asked questions

Do I need contractor registration for small works tenders?

Many departments require contractor registration or enlistment even for small works, though some allow unregistered bidders for limited values. The rule differs by department. Check the eligibility clause before preparing the bid. Confirm in the tender document / NIT. Bid Nexa can check this against your specific tender before you bid.

Where are miscellaneous 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.
