RFP for procurement of Video conferencing equipments

1. Introduction

Sealed Bids are invited by the undersigned from eligible bidders for meeting the immediate requirement of the following Video conferencing equipment for Department of Home, Government of Himachal Pradesh to fulfil following objectives.

1.1 Background - About Home Department

The Home Department, Government of Himachal Pradesh is responsible to maintain law

and order situation of the State. Apart from this, the department is also responsible to

ensure good working of the public servants and helps to give justice. The department also

looks about civil defence and fire fighting measures of the State. Prison Department, which

forms the last of the three components of the criminal justice administration - the police,

the judiciary and the prisons - played a vital role not only in keeping the prisoners in safe

custody but also creating a safe environment for the prisoners, meeting their basic

requirements and educating them in such a way that the objective of prison administration

transcends beyond keeping the prisoners within the four walls.

At present there are 14 jails and 3 lockups in Himachal Pradesh with total number of 1663

prisoners (1610 males and 53 females) as on date. The family members of these prisoners

have to travel to jail for meeting and that too once in a week. It involves not only time,

even cost to the family members to meet their relative in the prison especially women

inmates. Department of Home has envisaged the project “e-Mulakat” by way of

introducing Video Conference facility in all the jails using which the relatives of prisoners,

especially with women inmates, can interact without coming to jail through

LokmitraKendras (CSCs). This would not only reduce the traveling time, the cost of

traveling would also get reduced.

RFP for procurement of Video conferencing equipments

Moreover, out of 1663 prisoners, 757 prisoners (almost 45 %) are under trial. Lot of

government machinery and risk is involved while moving these prisoners from jail to court

and back during court hearings. Hence, it is proposed that Video conference setup in all

the courts of Himachal Pradesh be introduced and trial/ hearing of prisoners in the cases

would be done away by way of introducing Video Conference facility in courts & jails and is

termed as “e-Peshi”. This system will provide significant help to reduce cost and efforts of

the State Government.

Department of Home, Government of Himachal Pradesh has proposed to implement the

projects “e-Mulakat” and “e-Peshi” in consultation with Department of Information

Technology, Government of Himachal Pradesh.

Moreover, this facility is also envisaged for rehabilitation purposes by way of arranging interaction with social workers and crime experts using Video Conference.

1.2 Need of Project:

Hassles in meeting process with prisoners

Cost incurred in traveling

Per capita income in Himachal Pradesh is Rs. 44538* per year or Rs. 3711/- per

month.Considering this situation if a person have to manage travel for meeting with their

loved ones who are in jail twice a month they have to spend at least Rs. 600/- (Rs. 150/-

per trip one way) per person. If two persons are traveling then this expenditure will be

Rs. 1200/- approx. which is approx 33% of their total income . Hence, it is very costly for a

lower class family to afford travel for meeting with their loved one.

RFP for procurement of Video conferencing equipments

Difficult terrain

Travelling is not only a costly affair but also involves a lot of problems. This problem will

get increased many times for the families having women and children only. Also it is quite

difficult for the senior citizens who are not able travel because of health problems. Hence,

the intervention of technology is very important at this stage to provide smile on the

family members of prisoners.

Harassment of Women Family Members and prisoners

Though there are significant decrease in the criminal cases against women it was still

approx 10% of the total registered cases. Women are the easy victim of crime and

harassment. This can be at anywhere whether they are prisoners going for trial or the

family members visiting to jail.

Long wait for justice

“Justice will lose its relevance if it comes after long time”. As of now there are almost 50%

of the population in jails are under trial. This trial period of the person is keep on

increasing because of change and extension of dates due to various reasons. Also

movement of one prisoner to court also carries cost and effort. If there is an extension of

dates the prisoner again have to be present in next date also. This delays the process and

makes an impact on the cost over government for keeping the prisoner in jail and

expenditure involved in the movement of prisoner. Technology can change the entire

scenario a lot. Using video conferencing at jails and courts is a win – win situation for both

government and citizens in terms of cost and efforts.

Transparency in the judicial process

There are several occasions where prisoner is not able to present in the court proceedings.

Using video conferencing at jails and courts prisoners can be the part of each proceedings

which provide him to have a good faith in Judicial process.

2. VC based Court Hearing/Trials

A videoconference is a live connection between people in separate locations for the purpose of communication, usually involving audio and text as well as video. At its simplest, videoconferencing provides transmission of static images and text between two locations. At its most sophisticated, it provides transmission of full-motion video images and high-quality audio between multiple locations. Videoconferencing provides a complete simulation of a normal meeting environment, enabling both parties to see, hear and present material, just as if they were in the same room. The tangible benefits need to be taken into account include greatly improved communication between remote sites both court and Jail, reduced pressure, stress and fatigue from travel, reduced time of trial, immediacy of contact between concerned Person, rapid face to face resolution of urgent situations, ability to seize opportunities within narrow time frames, faster and better decision making, increased executive productivity and broadcast of key messages. Thus Videoconferencing has been selected useful tool to achieve objectives of the current project and to be quite useful in present scenario.

3. About HIMSWAN:

HIMSWAN (Himachal State Wide Area Network) is a three tier IP based Network to provide connectivity among Government offices at State HQ, District HQ, Sub-Division, Block and Tehsil HQs with the objective of making information easily accessible across the various Departments and to the people across the State. Total 132 PoPs (Points of Presence) have been created across State. Out of 132 PoPs, 130 are functional as f now. Remaining 2PoPs are TNF from BSNL end and will be made operational soon. HIMSWAN is based on leased line network. Keeping in view the recurring cost of leased line network and the availability of leased lines in rural areas, wireless network also has been created to provide HIMSWAN connectivity to various horizontal offices using wireless link. Wireless would offer a better total cost of ownership than a wired solution because recurring monthly costs of multiple T-1 and E-1 lines could be avoided and is at a much lower cost and will help in providing multi-megabit broadband services to rural underserved people at distances of up to few kilometres.

HIMSWAN has been designed in three tier architecture. HIMSWAN Network Operating Centre (NOC) is at State Headquarter (SHQ). All district Headquarters (DHQs) are

way of correction/ modification.

6.2 Evaluation and Comparison of Commercial Bids:

The comparison of Commercial Bids shall be done as follows:

Bid Comparison: The Bidders are required to complete their Commercial Bid in Proforma F. Initial

evaluation/ comparison for various categories of items given in the Tender Document will be done on the basis of Gross Bid Value which will take into account for destination price including five years comprehensive onsite warranty. The bid value must include all levies and duties customs duty, excise duty, sales tax/VAT etc. However it is preferred that OEM or their Authorised partner shall have dump/depot in the state of Himachal Pradesh. If there is a reduction in any of the statutory duties and levies before the dispatch of goods, the benefit of the same will be passed on to the Purchaser.

Gross Bid Value: Price quoted in Proforma F will be treated as final amount and will be used for the

comparison of bid during financial evaluation.

Note 1 : The Bidder shall not quote prices subject to certain conditions. Bids containing any

conditional prices may be rejected or the Purchaser may take a final decision in its discretion about such conditionality.

Note 2 : Arithmetical errors will be rectified on the following basis. If there is a discrepancy

between the unit price and the total price that is obtained by multiplying the unit price and quantity, the unit price shall prevail and the total shall be corrected. If the Bidder does not accept the corrections of errors, its bid will be rejected. If there is discrepancy between word and figures, the amount in words will prevail.

6.3 RANKING OF BIDDERS:

Society for Promotion of Information Technology and e-Governance 35

Page 36: hp.gov.inhp.gov.in/hp/file.axd?file=2012/3/HW-Tender_VC+Jail_… · Web viewhp.gov.in

RFP for procurement of Video conferencing equipments

The Bidders will be ranked in the reverse order of their Gross Bid Value quoted for project described in the Tender Notice.

Reduction in Statutory Duties and Levies: If any reduction in customs/ excise duty or any other statutory levies takes place

after opening the commercial bids, but before dispatch of goods; the Successful Bidder shall pass on the proportional benefit to the Purchaser. However, if any such reduction takes place after the opening of bids but before the finalisation of Tender, revised sealed bids shall be taken.

6.4 NEGOTIATIONS: The Purchaser may finalise the Tender & award the Contract without any

negotiations, if it is satisfied with reasonableness & workability of the lowest offers. Therefore, the Bidders are advised to quote lowest possible rates in the first instance only.

If the Purchaser does not find the lowest offer acceptable, it may go in for negotiations, which can be done with the lowest two bidders only (i.e. L1 and L2).

During the negotiations a revised offer will be taken from the representative of the Bidder by way of sealed bids. This revised offer will replace/supersede the earlier Technical & Commercial Bid, provided that the original offer (i.e. Technical/ Commercial) will not be allowed to be changed to the detriment of the Purchaser, as far as rates of every individual item & terms/ conditions are concerned. Therefore, the Bidders are advised to send sufficiently senior representatives (who can take spot decisions) for negotiations.

During the negotiations on prices & other related terms/conditions, prevalent worldwide street-prices of major components of the product, prices finalised in bids of similar size etc. will be kept in mind. The scope of negotiations may also include precise modus-operandi of after-sales service, mode of delivery, AMC rate, system integration etc.

During negotiations, the Purchaser may even go in for marginally higher configurations as per its absolute discretion and also change the numbers. So the Bidders must quote bare minimum rates for add-ons or in lieu prices also.

After this final ranking is done based on negotiated prices for each category, award of contract will be made to the lowest Bidder (L 1).
