Overview

The Greater Mohali Area Development Authority (GMADA) invited online bids for two horticulture-maintenance works in S.A.S. Nagar. The tender was issued by: Divisional Engineer (H-1), GMADA, S.A.S. Nagar The works covered:

• maintenance of the Plant Nursery in Sector 63.

Tender Reference

GMADA/DE(H-1)/2024/1073-1089 dated: 11 June 2024

Work 1: Horticulture Maintenance at Sports and Public Facilities

The first work covered maintenance of horticulture works at:

• Swimming Pool, Sector 56
• Sports Stadium, Sector 59
• Sports Stadium, Sector 61
• Sports Stadium, Sector 65
• Sports Stadium, Sector 71
• Habitat Centre, Sector 64

The maintenance period stated in the tender was: 1 April 2024 to 31 March 2025

Important Detail: Third Call

This work was marked as: “3rd time called” This means GMADA had invited bids for this work earlier and was issuing the tender again. However, the short advertisement does not explain why earlier tender calls did not result in a final award. It should therefore not be stated that previous bids failed, were rejected or were cancelled unless the earlier tender records confirm that.

Work 2: Maintenance of Plant Nursery, Sector 63

The second work concerned: Maintenance of Plant Nursery, Sector 63, S.A.S. Nagar The period was also: 1 April 2024 to 31 March 2025

Important Detail: Second Call

This package was marked as: “2nd time called” So this was a repeat tender invitation for the nursery-maintenance work. Again, the advertisement does not explain the result of the earlier call.

What Does “Horticulture Maintenance” Likely Cover?

The short notice uses the broad term: maintenance of horticulture works It does not list the detailed activities. The exact scope should therefore be taken from the full tender documents. Such a tender may include activities connected with maintaining landscaped areas and plantations, but this short advertisement alone does not confirm specific quantities or tasks such as:

• watering;
• mowing;
• pruning;
• replacement planting;
• fertilisation;
• weeding;
• manpower deployment; or
• machinery requirements.

These details should not be added unless supported by the tender schedule.

Why Is the Tender Period Important?

The maintenance period stated is: 1 April 2024 to 31 March 2025 but the tender notice itself is dated: 11 June 2024 This means the stated maintenance period began before the tender advertisement date. That is an important practical detail for readers. However, the short notice does not explain how the earlier portion of the maintenance period was to be handled, so this should not be interpreted without the detailed tender conditions.

Closing Date and Time

Online bids were scheduled to close on: 24 June 2024 at 12:00 noon

Tender Portal

The tender documents and online bidding were available through: eproc.punjab.gov.in

Corrigenda

GMADA stated that any corrigendum to the tender notice would be published only on the Punjab e-procurement website. Therefore, later changes relating to:

• closing date;
• tender conditions;
• work scope;
• estimated cost;
• cancellation; or
• re-tendering

would need to be checked from the official e-procurement record.

Does This Tender Mean the Maintenance Work Was Awarded?

No. This notice only confirms that GMADA invited bids. It does not establish that:

• a contractor was selected;
• the tender was awarded;
• a work order was issued;
• work actually started; or
• maintenance continued through 31 March 2025.

Those points require later procurement or work-order records.

Why Is the “Third Time” and “Second Time” Information Useful?

For users tracking GMADA projects, repeat tender calls can be important because they show that the procurement process had not been concluded through the earlier invitation alone. In this case: Sports facilities + Habitat Centre horticulture: third call Sector 63 Plant Nursery: second call This should be shown prominently in the article because it gives more context than simply describing the tender as a fresh invitation.

What Should Residents or Users Understand?

For users of the affected facilities, the tender shows that GMADA was seeking contractors for ongoing horticulture upkeep at multiple public facilities. It does not, however, prove that there was:

• neglect;
• a maintenance failure;
• landscaping damage; or
• a service interruption.

Those claims would need separate evidence.

What Information Is Not Given in the Advertisement?

The short notice does not state:

• estimated cost of either work;
• EMD;
• tender fee;
• required manpower;
• exact horticulture quantities;
• contractor eligibility;
• successful bidder;
• final awarded value; or
• date of work order.

These details would need to be taken from the detailed tender documents or subsequent award record.

Practical Check for Final Status

For a complete gmada.in record, later official documents should be checked for:

• technical bid result;
• financial bid result;
• successful bidder;
• contract amount;
• work-order date;
• actual start date;
• any extension;
• termination;
• re-tendering; or
• completion certificate.

Practical Takeaway

The most useful point for readers is that these were repeat tender calls, not simply first-time invitations. The notice confirms procurement activity for horticulture maintenance, but it does not itself confirm that either contract was eventually awarded or completed.
