The National Small Industries Corporation enlists small scale units as competent to undertake supply of various items to the Government.
The registered units are extended various facilities so as to promote their participation, and consequently enhance the share in Government purchases.
NSIC's registration scheme has been in operation for the last 37 years and was remodeled in May 1976, and is now called the Single Point Registration Scheme.
The rationale of the this Scheme is to avoid multiplicity of registration with various Government agencies and to ensure that the units registered with NSIC are considered at par with those registered directly with the purchasing agency.
Bonafide Directorate of Industries / District Industries Centres are enlisted under this Scheme.
Their technical and commercial competence is verified in advance and this makes their registration with NSIC more meaningful in relation to purchasing agencies.
Though, initially the Scheme was aimed at securing larger share of orders from DGS&D, effective recognition is given to the units registered with NSIC by the Railways, Defence, P&T, and several Public Sector Enterprises. Automatic registration is given to units which are enlisted with NSIC. The units registered under this scheme are manufacturing a broad spectrum of products involving high technology and sophisticated production processes and have become a formidable source of supplies to the Government both at the Centre and States besides Public Sector Undertakings, etc.
Facilities
The units registered with NSIC, under the Single Point Registration Scheme are given the following facilities:
- Issue of tender sets Free of Cost
- Advance intimation of tenders issued by DGS&D
- Exemption from payment of earnest money
- Waiver of security deposit upto the monetary limit for which the unit is registered.
- Issue of competency certificate in case the value of an order exceeds the monetary limit, after due verification.
- Besides, the units get other facilities which are available to small scale sector such as consideration of price preference upto 15% on merits over the price quoted by large units and procurement as per the reserved lists.
Procedure for Registration
The unit has to apply on the prescribed application form available from NSIC, New Delhi and its Regional and Branch Offices. Application forms are also available from Small Industries Service Institutes (SISI) and District Industries Centres (DIC). The forms are priced at Rs.25 per set.
The Application form, duly filled in and with the requisite documents, in triplicate along with a processing fee of Rs.250/- is to be submitted to the concerned office of NSIC, who, in turn, will forward one copy to the concerned SISI for a capacity report. Based on the reports, and completion of documentation, the unit is given registration. The procedure has recently been simplified, and guidelines attached with the application form provide a checklist for the documents that are required to be submitted alongwith the application.
Other Services
NSIC, acts as a link between various purchasing agencies and small scale units. NSIC screens indents to be issued by DGS&D in advance to mark out such items as can be supplied by small scale industries. Intimation of these requirements are sent to registered small units.
Tender enquiries from other government departments, as and when received, are also sent to registered units, to enable them to participate in the tenders.
NSIC issues competency certificates in respect of small scale units to the concerned purchasing agency for waiver of security deposit and extension of other facilities.
NSIC undertakes, on a continuous basis, a study of the purchase pattern of DGS&D and recommends items for inclusion in the reserved lists.
Items are recommended for inclusion in the reserved lists with data on exact specifications of stores, total number of manufacturing and their installed / actual capacity, total purchases made by the Government departments during the last three years and performance shown by small scale units in executing order without any difficulty / delays.
NSIC organises Institutional Group Meetings in the States for apprising Government Departments and Public Sector Enterprises of the facilities to be given to units enlisted with NSIC.
NSIC organises Intensive Campaigns in the States for apprising small scale units of the facilities that are available under the Government Stores Purchase Programme, and enlists them more often on-the-spot under its Single Point Registration Scheme.
NSIC compiles specifications of stores as are required by the Government departments out of the reserved Groups. These are then sent to SISI and DICs for reference by small scale units.
The Corporation has been bringing out periodically the All India SSI Directory covering the marketing support under this programme, in a modern computerised concise format, highlighting the salient features of this programme. The Directory has gone a long way in establishing the linkages between the Government buyers and over 23640 units registered for supplying to over 7000 stores in various Government Departments and Public Sector Undertakings.
