Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees
The financial framework for the Almora Director Recruitment contract is structured in strict compliance with the General Financial Rules (GFR 2017) and Government e-Marketplace (GeM 4.0) guidelines. The estimated contract valuation demands rigorous fiscal prudence. An Earnest Money Deposit (EMD) pegged at 2 percent of the estimated value is mandated to filter non-serious bidders, accepted via online payment modes or Bank Guarantees. Upon successful selection, the L1 vendor must furnish a Performance Bank Guarantee (PBG) ranging between 3 to 5 percent of the total contract value to secure performance execution. A nominal, non-refundable tender document fee is integrated to cover administrative overheads. Furthermore, to mitigate project delays, a stringent Liquidated Damages (LD) clause is enforced, levying 0.5 percent of the contract price per week of delay, capped at a maximum of 10 percent of the total contract value.
General Conditions of Contract (GCC) & Integrity Compliance
Contract compliance is governed by the General Conditions of Contract (GCC). All disputes arising out of or in connection with the Almora Director Recruitment shall be resolved amicably, failing which they shall be referred to arbitration under the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, with the venue designated at Almora. Milestone-based billing is linked strictly to verified deliverables and recruitment phases. A Defect Liability Period (DLP) applies to rectify post-recruitment discrepancies. Additionally, an Integrity Pact is mandatory for high-value tenders to ensure absolute transparency, preventing corrupt practices and collusion throughout the procurement lifecycle.
