Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees
The procurement for Andaman N/A Recruitment entails strict adherence to GFR 2017 and GeM financial norms. The estimated contract valuation must be derived through a detailed market rate analysis to ensure budget reasonableness. In alignment with standard public procurement, an Earnest Money Deposit (EMD) fixed at 2% of the estimated value is mandatory to deter frivolous bids, payable via demand draft, fixed deposit, or bank guarantee. Upon successful selection, the L1 vendor must furnish a Performance Bank Guarantee (PBG) ranging from 3% to 5% of the total contract value to secure faithful performance. Tender document fees are generally waived on GeM and CPPP for eligible entities, though processing fees may apply. Furthermore, to mitigate project delays, a stringent Liquidated Damages (LD) clause of 0.5% of the undelivered value per week of delay, capped at a maximum of 10% of the total contract value, is rigorously enforced.
General Conditions of Contract (GCC) & Integrity Compliance
Contract compliance is governed by the General Conditions of Contract (GCC) of GFR 2017. All disputes arising out of the contract shall be resolved through amicable settlement, failing which they shall be referred to arbitration in accordance with the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, with the venue in Andaman. Milestone-based billing shall apply upon satisfactory completion of designated recruitment phases, verified by the procuring entity. A Defect Liability Period (DLP) of twelve months applies to service deliverables. Additionally, an Integrity Pact is mandatory for high-value contracts to ensure transparency and prevent corrupt practices throughout the procurement lifecycle.
