Two Integration Approaches:

A

Embedded in technical evaluation criteria

Tulna’s CPT framework is embedded within the technical criteria of the procurement bid. Products are scored by a state-nominated evaluation panel trained on the Tulna rubric, with scores used either as minimum qualification thresholds or in combination with commercial scores.

Used by: Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, Andhra Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat and Odisha

B

Existing Tulna report as pre-qualification

A Tulna evaluation report is mandated as a pre-qualification criterion for tender eligibility, ensuring only quality-vetted products proceed to bid evaluation

Used in: Himachal Pradesh, NITI Aayog (UP), UP PM Shri, and Gujarat.
