How to check a tender status

When you are notified by mail after your tender is selected, it is quite natural that you would like to know where your tender application stands in the interim period. The eProcurement portal enables you to easily check the tender status of your application. You can do so by following the steps mentioned below to know your CPP portal tender status.

• Log in to the eProcurement portal and click on ‘Tender status’ on the left panel
• You can then check the tender status using any of the three criteria listed below to search

Tender status search criteria I:

In the first criterion for tender status check, you need to fill in the following fields.

• Tender status: Select the correct option from the drop-down list. The options include opened, technical bidding, technical evaluation, financial bid opening, AOC, retender or cancelled. This field is mandatory.
• Keywords: The second mandatory field includes keywords. This refers to the sector in which you have applied for. Example, you are a service provider for security personnel. Your keyword here could be security personnel, security management, etc.
• Time: The third field comprises the timeline for the tender – ‘from date’ and the ‘to date’.
• Form of contract: Fill in what products/services you are offering in the tender application. This is again a drop-down, and the list comprises options like buy, empanelment, fixed rate, item rate, lump sum, sale, supply, etc. Select what best fits your proposal.
• Tender category: Select from the options – goods, service, and works as applicable to you.
• Tender type: Select from the options given – global tenders, limited tenders, open limited, open tender, and single.
• Product category: Provide the product category from the drop-down list provided – e.g., advertisement services, agricultural or forestry, architecture, etc.

Tender status search criteria II:

If you opt for the second criterion for eTender status check, you need to fill in the following fields.

• Organisation: Enter the organisation for which you have applied the tender. For example, Airports Authority of India, Cochin Shipyard Limited, Brahmaputra Cracker and Polymer Limited, etc. This is a mandatory field.
• Tender reference number: Fill in the tender reference number – that is the unique number that is used to identify the particular tender. This is a mandatory field.
• Department: Select the department you have opted to supply for from the drop-down list. For example, if you have applied for a tender to supply railway related goods to the Diesel Loco Shed, Kalyan, then you need to select the same from the list.
• Published from: Enter the timeline of the tender – as to when it was published and the last date of submission.
• Division and subdivision: Fill in the location where the tender is based. You can select your options from the drop-down list like –Mumbai, Pune, Gujarat etc. and subsequently, the subdivision in that location. For example, if the division is Gujarat, the subdivision can be Bhuj.
• Keyword: Put in the keywords that best describe your tender application.

Tender status search criteria III:

The third search criterion is more direct, and the only reference that you require to check your tender status is the Tender ID.

In each of the above cases, after you have filled in the details, you need to enter the Captcha code to access your CPP tender status.

Note: You can use only one criterion at a time, i.e., either criteria I, II or III in the order of precedence even if more than one criterion can be used for search.
