hptenders.gov.in, integrated
The crawler reads the latest active tenders on hptenders.gov.in/nicgep/app, opens each one, and downloads the document bundle. Tenders from this portal are mapped to Himachal Pradesh, so a state filter shows them together with HP work you track from other sources.
Because HP uses the same NIC system as the central portals and Jammu & Kashmir, the summary looks the same for every tender. Your team does not have to learn a different layout for each state.
HP-style eligibility clauses Operavity is built to read
Operavity’s clause rules include patterns written for the standard bidding document style common in HP public works tenders. The shapes below are illustrative; the exact wording, percentages and periods are set in each tender.
| Clause | Typical shape in the NIT |
|---|---|
| Financial turnover | Average annual financial turnover over a stated number of years, not less than a stated percentage of the estimated cost. |
| Similar work | Similar work completed within a stated period, of value not less than a stated percentage of the estimated cost. |
| Security deposit | A stated percentage of the tendered value, deducted or deposited as the tender specifies. |
| Performance security | A stated percentage for performance security or a performance bank guarantee. |
| EMD | Amount and mode as specified in the NIT and on the portal. |
Turnover and similar work are compared with your company profile as Pass, Fail or Unknown. Security deposit and performance security are shown as facts to plan cash flow around, not as pass or fail.
Typical Himachal Pradesh tender categories
Illustrative categories you would set keywords for on the HP portal:
- Roads and bridges, including repair, metalling and tarring, and protection works.
- Buildings: construction, repair and maintenance of government buildings.
- Water supply, sewerage and irrigation schemes.
- Electrical works: internal electrification and maintenance.
- Supply contracts for materials and equipment.
Illustrative Operavity does not publish a list of HP departments. Category examples above come from the work types the matching engine is built for, not from a count of tenders.
Working an HP tender with your team
- A new HP tender matching your keywords appears in your list, with its closing date.
- The summary shows value, EMD, dates and eligibility clauses with page references.
- You assign it to estimation; the BOQ is worked in Operavity and vendor quotes are requested from it.
- Required documents are ticked off; the closing date and any pre-bid meeting sit on the shared calendar.
- Your team submits on hptenders.gov.in and records the submission in Operavity.
- If you win, the tender becomes a project with tasks, Gantt, expenses and documents.
Operavity does not submit bids. Your team signs and submits on the portal itself, as it does today.
Corrigenda, closing dates and reminders
When an HP tender is amended, its NIC tender page carries a corrigendum link, which the crawler collects along with the tender details.
Operavity attaches corrigenda to the tender they change, so the person who owns the bid sees them on the record they already have open. The shared calendar holds the submission end date and the pre-bid meeting, and reminders notify the owner ahead of each, so a moved date is not missed by the one colleague who was not told.
Before you submit, open the latest corrigendum on the portal and confirm the dates and documents there. The portal is always the final word.
HP and the rest of your portals
Most HP contractors do not bid only in HP. Central works appear on CPPP eProcure and eTenders, supply bids appear on GeM, and neighbouring states have their own portals. All of them land in one list and one calendar in Operavity.
