Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees

The procurement for the recruitment examination services by the Andhra Pradesh Public Service Commission entails a rigorous financial framework aligned with GFR 2017. The estimated contract valuation is assessed based on historical volumes for conducting large-scale computer-based and offline examinations for the post of FAO, TO, STO, and Assistant Professors. Bidders are mandated to submit a non-refundable tender document fee and an Earnest Money Deposit (EMD) fixed at 2 percent of the estimated tender value to deter non-serious participants. Upon successful award, the selected service provider must furnish a Performance Bank Guarantee (PBG) ranging between 3 to 5 percent of the total contract value to secure uncompromised execution. Furthermore, to safeguard public exchequer interests against delivery delays, a stringent Liquidated Damages (LD) clause is enforced, levying 0.5 percent of the undelivered milestone value per week of delay, subject to a maximum ceiling of 10 percent of the contract value.

General Conditions of Contract (GCC) & Integrity Compliance

Contract compliance is governed strictly by the General Conditions of Contract, incorporating milestone-based billing linked directly to successful examination stages including question bank curation, admit card generation, center management, and result processing. A Defect Liability Period (DLP) of twelve months applies post-result declaration to rectify data anomalies. An Integrity Pact must be executed to ensure absolute transparency and prohibit corrupt practices. All disputes arising out of or in connection with the contract shall be referred to arbitration in accordance with the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act 1996, with the venue of arbitration located in Vijayawada, Andhra Pradesh, and proceedings conducted in English.
