Cleghorn Mfg. Co. holds a USD 985,686 IWAI contract for six 24 m by 6 m steel floating jetties, split between Bihar and West Bengal on National Waterway-1. Contract terms are public, while final locations, unit delivery and acceptance remain unresolved.

Cleghorn holds the six-unit cross-state pontoon package

Contract 1849339 controls Cleghorn Mfg. Co. Pvt. Ltd., the signature date, contract reference and committed USD amount. The current IWAI tender page and PDF control the six-unit scope, dimensions, three-plus-three state split, morphology clause, eight-month delivery period and 24-month upkeep.

Morphology keeps the final six-site ledger open

The tender allocates three units to Bihar and three to West Bengal but allows locations to change with river morphology. That clause makes final coordinates, surveys and anchor design essential before a reliable site schedule can be formed. Cleghorn is the confirmed bundled supplier, while fabrication yard, verifier, equipment suppliers, installation subcontractors and actual delivery sequence remain undisclosed.

Evidence conclusion

The December 2025 delivery gate lacks completion evidence

Contract 1849339 fixes Cleghorn Mfg. Co. Pvt. Ltd. as the bundled supplier from 24 April 2025 at a committed supplier amount of USD 985,685.91. Six 24 m by 6 m pontoons, six 9 m by 2 m walkways, the three-plus-three state split and an eight-month delivery period are defined by IWAI. The resulting milestone points to 24 December 2025, yet final site names, unit numbers, fabrication milestones, installation dates, commissioning certificates and owner acceptance remain unpublished.

Outstanding evidence

  • Final three Bihar and three West Bengal locations and coordinates
  • Approved drawings and site-specific anchor and mooring design
  • Fabrication yard, steel-cutting start and six unit numbers
  • Named verifier, inspection body and hold points
  • HDPE walkway, fender, winch, bollard and safety-equipment orders
  • Transport, launching and installation subcontractors
  • Extension or recovery plan beyond the December 2025 delivery gate
  • Unit-level commissioning, registration and IWAI acceptance
