(ii) The bidders may send their technical and financial bids through e-mail (at adm.thimphu@mea.gov.in copied to hoc.thimphu@mea.gov.in) which would be encrypted, password protected and digitally signed. It must reach to the inbox of above e-mail IDs before the last date and cut off time. Subsequently, the password should be shared an hour before bid opening time. Bidders adopting this digital method should develop a system which notifies them the exact time when the bid is opened.

(iii) The physical sealed bids will also be accepted as per the original tender documents.
