Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees

The procurement dossier for Assistant Professor Recruitment services under Entity 'And' establishes a rigorous commercial framework aligned with GFR 2017. The estimated contract valuation is derived through comprehensive market rate analysis to ensure fiscal prudence. An Earnest Money Deposit (EMD) fixed at 2% of the estimated value is mandated to deter frivolous bids, payable via demand draft, banker's cheque, or bank guarantee. Upon successful award, the selected service provider must furnish a Performance Bank Guarantee (PBG) ranging between 3% to 5% of the total contract value to secure faithful performance. A nominal non-refundable tender document fee applies, promoting administrative cost recovery. Furthermore, to mitigate project delays, a stringent Liquidated Damages (LD) clause is enforced, levying 0.5% of the contract value per week of delay, capped at a maximum of 10% of the total contract price.

General Conditions of Contract (GCC) & Integrity Compliance

Contract compliance is governed by the General Conditions of Contract (GCC), mandating milestone-based billing linked to verifiable deliverables such as candidate shortlisting, written examination execution, and interview management. A Defect Liability Period (DLP) is enforced to rectify any discrepancies in data processing or evaluation integrity. Any disputes arising out of or in connection with the contract shall be resolved amicably, failing which matters will be referred to sole arbitration under the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, with proceedings held in English. Additionally, an Integrity Pact is mandatory for transparency and anti-corruption oversight.
