1

Register authorized representatives on the GeM portal using valid Class 3 Digital Signature Certificates (DSC) to access tender documents, download specifications, and initiate submission procedures.

2

Participate actively in the pre-bid clarification meeting hosted by Amritsar to submit written queries, address ambiguities, and review formal corrigenda issued prior to the deadline.

Submit the financial bid via the online Bill of Quantities (BoQ) module, ensuring quoted rates adhere strictly to tender terms for subsequent automated techno-commercial evaluation.

Technical Qualification Matrix & Due Diligence Standards

Bidders participating in Amritsar Director Recruitment must satisfy the multi-tiered technical, financial, and statutory qualifying covenants detailed below:

Evaluation BenchmarkMandated Technical & Financial Covenant
Statutory Benchmark Bidders must demonstrate an average annual financial turnover of at least 30 percent of the estimated contract value during the last three consecutive financial years, backed by audited balance sheets and profit-loss statements.
Statutory Benchmark Bidders must have successfully executed similar executive search or recruitment projects for government bodies, public sector undertakings, or autonomous institutions during the past seven years.
Statutory Benchmark Mandatory possession of valid statutory registrations including GSTIN, PAN, EPF, ESI, and applicable state or central labor licenses to ensure absolute compliance with Indian labor and taxation laws.
Statutory Benchmark MSMEs and recognized startups are eligible for EMD and prior turnover exemptions pursuant to Rule 170 of GFR 2017 and the Public Procurement Policy, subject to submission of valid Udyam or DPIIT certification.

Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees

The procurement for the Amritsar Director Recruitment requires a robust financial structure aligned with GFR 2017 and GeM guidelines. The contract valuation must be determined via detailed market estimation, factoring in executive search complexity. An Earnest Money Deposit (EMD) of 2 percent of the estimated value is mandatory to secure the bid against frivolous submissions, while micro and small enterprises may seek exemption per Rule 170. Upon successful award, the selected agency must furnish a Performance Bank Guarantee (PBG) ranging from 3 to 5 percent of the total contract value to ensure diligent execution. Tender document fees, where applicable, remain strictly non-refundable. To mitigate delivery risks, a Liquidated Damages (LD) clause is enforced at 0.5 percent of the delayed milestone value per week, capped at a maximum of 10 percent of the aggregate contract sum, safeguarding public exchequer interests effectively.

General Conditions of Contract (GCC) & Integrity Compliance

Contract compliance is governed by the General Conditions of Contract, incorporating milestone-based billing linked to verified deliverables such as candidate sourcing, shortlisting, and final interview facilitation. A defect liability period applies to placement retentions. To ensure absolute transparency, an Integrity Pact is mandatory for high-value tenders. Any disputes arising from the execution of the contract shall be resolved amicably, failing which the matter must be referred to a sole arbitrator appointed in accordance with the provisions of the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, with proceedings held in Amritsar and conducted in the English language.
