Learn more →Central ministries, state departments, municipal bodies and public sector companies buy goods and services every working day: furniture, computers, uniforms, electrical items, medicines, vehicles on hire, security and cleaning manpower, civil works, IT support and much more. Almost all of this buying now happens online, on GeM (Government e-Marketplace), on the Central Public Procurement Portal (CPPP) and on each state's own e-tender portal.
Online procurement has opened the door for small and new businesses. You do not need contacts in an office to take part. A buyer in another state can place an order with a supplier in Varanasi, Indore or Coimbatore, as long as the supplier is registered, eligible and quotes correctly. Government policy also supports small businesses: under the Public Procurement Policy for Micro and Small Enterprises, central buyers aim to source a share of their purchases from MSEs, and many tenders exempt registered MSEs from paying the earnest money deposit (EMD).
Most bids are not lost on price. They are rejected before the price is even opened, because a certificate is missing, an affidavit is in the wrong format, a page is not signed, the turnover figure does not match the CA certificate, or the bid was uploaded a few minutes too late. Portals are strict and deadlines do not move.
We handle the paperwork side of government selling so that you can concentrate on supplying. We set up your Digital Signature Certificate, register you on GeM and the portals that matter for your trade, keep a ready document library, read each tender for eligibility, and prepare and upload your bid with your approval. You stay in control: your DSC, your payments to the portal and your final rate are always yours.
