1.7 SPECIAL NOTE ON SECURITY AND TRANSPARENCY OF BIDS

Security related functionality has been rigorously implemented in ETS in a multi- dimensional

manner. Starting with 'Acceptance of Registration by the Service Provider', provision for

security has been made at various stages in Electronic Tender's software. Specifically for Bid

Submission, some security related aspects are outlined below:

As part of the Electronic Encrypter functionality, the contents of both the ‘Electronic

Forms’ and the ‘Main-Bid’ are securely encrypted using a Pass-Phrase created by the Bidder

himself. Unlike a ‘password’, a Pass-Phrase can be a multi-word sentence with spaces

between words (eg I love this World). A Pass-Phrase is easier to remember, and more difficult

to break. It is mandatory that a separate Pass-Phrase be created for each Bid-Part. This method

of bid-encryption does not have the security and data-integrity related vulnerabilities which

are inherent in e-tendering systems which use Public-Key of the specified officer of a Buyer

organization for bid-encryption. Bid-encryption in ETS is such that the Bids cannot be

decrypted before the Public Online Tender Opening Event (TOE), even if there is connivance

between the concerned tender-opening officers of the Buyer organization and the personnel of

e-tendering service provider.

CAUTION: All bidders must fill Electronic Forms for each bid-part sincerely and carefully,

and avoid any discrepancy between information given in the Electronic Forms and the

corresponding Main-Bid. For transparency, the information submitted by a bidder in the

Electronic Forms is made available to other bidders during the Online Public TOE. If it is

found during the Online Public TOE that a bidder has not filled in the complete information in

the Electronic Forms, the TOE officer may make available for downloading the corresponding

Main-Bid of that bidder at the risk of the bidder. If variation is noted between the information

contained in the Electronic Forms and the ‘Main-Bid’, the contents of the Electronic

Forms shall prevail. Alternatively, the Buyer organization reserves the right to consider

the higher of the two pieces of information (eg the higher price) for the purpose of short-

listing, and the lower of the two pieces of information (eg the lower price) for the purpose of

payment in case that bidder is an awardee in that tender.

Typically, ‘Pass-Phrase’ of the Bid-Part to be opened during a particular Public Online

Tender Opening Event (TOE) is furnished online by each bidder during the TOE itself,

when demanded by the concerned Tender Opening Officer.

There is an additional protection with SSL Encryption during transit from the client-end

computer of a Supplier organization to the e-tendering server/ portal.

1.8 PUBLIC ONLINE TENDER OPENING EVENT (TOE)

ETS offers a unique facility for ‘Public Online Tender Opening Event (TOE)’. Tender

Opening Officers, as well as, authorized representatives of bidders can simultaneously attend

the Public Online Tender Opening Event (TOE) from the comfort of their offices.

Alternatively, one/ two duly authorized representative(s) of bidders (i.e. Supplier

organization) are requested to carry a Laptop with Wireless Internet Connectivity, if they wish

to come to WAPCOS office for the Public Online TOE.

Every legal requirement for a transparent and secure ‘Public Online Tender Opening

Event (TOE)’, including digital counter-signing of each opened bid by the authorized TOE-

officer(s) in the simultaneous online presence of the participating bidders’ representatives, has

been implemented on ETS.

As soon as a Bid is decrypted with the corresponding ‘Pass-Phrase’ as submitted by the

bidder himself during the TOE itself or as per alternative methods prescribed in the

Tender Documents, salient points of the Bids (as identified by the Buyer organization) are

simultaneously made available for downloading by all participating bidders. The tedium of

taking notes during a manual ‘Tender Opening Event’ is therefore replaced with this superior

and convenient form of ‘Public Online Tender Opening Event (TOE)’.

ETS has a unique facility of ‘Online Comparison Chart’ which is dynamically updated as each

online bid is opened. The format of the chart is based on inputs provided by the Buyer for

each Bid-Part of a tender. The information in the Comparison Chart is based on the data

submitted by the Bidders. A detailed Technical and/ or Financial Comparison Chart enhances

Transparency. Detailed instructions are given on relevant screens.

ETS has a unique facility of a detailed report titled ‘Minutes of Online Tender Opening Event

(TOE)’ covering all important activities of ‘Online Tender Opening Event (TOE)’. This is

available to all participating bidders for ‘Viewing/ Downloading’.

There are many more facilities and features on ETS. For a particular tender, the screens

viewed by a Supplier will depend upon the options selected by the concerned Buyer.

Other Instructions

For further instructions, the vendor should visit the home-page of the portal

https://www.tcil-india-electronictender.com, and go to the User-Guidance Center

The help information provided through ‘ETS User-Guidance Center’ is available in three

categories – Users intending to Register / First-Time Users, Logged-in users of Buyer

organizations, and Logged-in users of Supplier organizations. Various links (including links

for User Manuals) are provided under each of the three categories.

Important Note: It is strongly recommended that all authorized users of Supplier organizations

should thoroughly peruse the information provided under the relevant links, and take

appropriate action. This will prevent hiccups, and minimize teething problems during the use

of ETS

1.9 SEVEN CRITICAL DO’S AND DON’TS FOR BIDDERS

Specifically for Supplier organizations, the following 'SEVEN KEY INSTRUCTIONS for

BIDDERS' must be assiduously adhered to:

1. Obtain individual Digital Signing Certificate (DSC or DC) well in advance of your first

tender submission deadline on ETS

2. Register your organization on ETS well in advance of the important deadlines for your

first tender on ETS viz ‘Date and Time of Closure of Procurement of Tender Documents’

and ‘Last Date and Time of Receipt of Bids’. Please note that even after acceptance of

your registration by the Service Provider, to respond to a tender you will also require

time to complete activities related to your organization, such as creation of -- Marketing

Authority (MA) [ie a department within the Supplier/ Bidder Organization responsible for

responding to tenders], users for one or more such MAs, assigning roles to them, etc. It is

mandatory to create at least one MA. This unique feature of creating an MA enhances

security and accountability within the Supplier/ Bidder Organization.

3. Get your organization's concerned executives trained on ETS well in advance of your

first tender submission deadline on ETS

4. For responding to any particular tender, the tender (ie its Tender Search Code or TSC) has

to be assigned to an MA. Further, an ‘Official Copy of Tender Documents’ should be

procured/ downloaded before the expiry of Date and Time of Closure of Procurement of

Tender Documents. Note: Official copy of Tender Documents is distinct from

downloading ‘Free Copy of Tender Documents’. Official copy of Tender Documents is

the equivalent of procuring physical copy of Tender Documents with official receipt in the

paper-based manual tendering system.

5. Submit your bids well in advance of tender submission deadline on ETS (There could be

last minute problems due to internet timeout, breakdown, etc.)

6. It is the responsibility of each bidder to remember and securely store the Pass-Phrase for

each Bid-Part submitted by that bidder. In the event of a bidder forgetting the Pass-Phrase

before the expiry of deadline for Bid-Submission, facility is provided to the bidder to

‘Annul Previous Submission’ from the Bid-Submission Overview page and start afresh

with new Pass-Phrase(s)

7. ETS will make your bid available for opening during the Online Public Tender Opening

Event (TOE) ‘ONLY IF’ your ‘Status pertaining Overall Bid-Submission’ is

‘Complete’. For your record, you can generate and save a copy of ‘Final Submission

Receipt’. This receipt can be generated from 'Bid-Submission Overview Page' only if the

‘Status pertaining overall Bid-Submission’ is ‘Complete’.

NOTE:

While the first three instructions mentioned above are especially relevant to first-time users

of ETS, the fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh instructions are relevant at all times.
