# GMC Baramulla Reissues Cath Lab Tender

The Government Medical College (GMC) Baramulla is addressing procurement challenges after the initially selected bidder for its Cath Lab equipment was unable to supply the specified discontinued model. A new tender process has been initiated, with financial bids opening on September 30, 2026, and contract award expected by October 10, 2026. Concurrently, GMC Baramulla is progressing with procurement of an MRI machine under the SASCI scheme, with delivery anticipated within five to six months. Infrastructure expansion plans, including land acquisition and new facility development, are also underway to support enhanced medical services.

- Procurement professionals should note the revised tender timeline for the Cath Lab equipment, presenting an opportunity for qualified suppliers to participate before the October 10 award date.
- The MRI machine procurement under the SASCI scheme indicates ongoing investment in advanced diagnostic equipment, relevant for vendors specializing in medical imaging technology.
- Expansion of medical infrastructure in Baramulla suggests potential future procurement opportunities related to construction, equipment, and facility management.
- Stakeholders should engage with local government entities such as the Health and Medical Education Department and JK Medical Supplies Corporation Limited, which are key players in these procurement activities.
