invited pan India E-tender for deployment of security agencies for providing watch and ward services for different areas on contract basis for two years. A corrigendum dated 28.7.2021 was published making amendments, especially in paragraph no. 2.2 to the effect that either the bidder should be registered under PSARA 2005 licence or should provide an undertaking of registration within two months after award of this service contract at IGIMS. In the pre-bid meeting held on 13.7.2021, taking into account the request of the seven bidders, as they were from outside Bihar, the selection committee agreed and the corrigendum dated 28.07.2021 was uploaded on the website of IGIMS. In the meetings that followed, M/s SIS was selected for both Unit-A and Unit-B. However, as per tender rule one company could be given the assignment for only one unit and as M/s SIS selected the assignment of Unit-A, Unit-B was given to respondent no. 4 which was next in line. After approval of the competent authority, security assignment for Unit-A was awarded to M/s SIS and for Unit-B it was awarded to respondent no. 4, both on 26.11.2021.
