e-Procurement Bidding Roadmap & Portal Workflow

Step 1: Vendors must register on the GeM 4.0 portal using a valid Class 3 Digital Signature Certificate (DSC) and complete organizational profiling to access the APISETU recruitment tender documents.

Step 2: Prospective bidders should review the tender thoroughly and submit written queries within the stipulated timeframe for discussion during the mandatory pre-bid clarification meeting.

Step 3: Bidders must prepare and upload the two-cover system comprising technical credentials in Cover 1 and financial BoQ in Cover 2, ensuring all statutory attachments are digitally signed.

Step 4: The procurement committee evaluates technical submissions first, and upon shortlisting, opens the commercial BoQ financial bids for technically qualified vendors on the portal.

Step 5: Following financial evaluation and internal approvals, APISETU Authority issues the formal Letter of Award (LoA) to the L1 bidder, requiring timely acceptance and submission of the PBG.

Technical Qualification Matrix & Due Diligence Standards

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

Evaluation Benchmark	Mandated Technical & Financial Covenant
Statutory Benchmark	Bidders must demonstrate a minimum average annual turnover of at least 30 percent of the estimated contract value during the last three consecutive financial years, supported by audited balance sheets.
Statutory Benchmark	The agency must have successfully executed similar recruitment or HR outsourcing projects for government bodies, public sector undertakings, or autonomous institutions in the past seven years.
Statutory Benchmark	Bidders must possess mandatory statutory licenses and compliance registrations including valid GSTIN, PAN, EPF, ESI, and applicable state or central labor licenses for manpower operations.
Statutory Benchmark	Micro and Small Enterprises and recognized Startups are eligible for EMD and prior turnover relaxations as per Rule 170 of GFR 2017 and the Public Procurement Policy, subject to furnishing valid Udyam or DPIIT certificates.

Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees

The procurement for Recruitment services by APISETU Authority necessitates a robust commercial structure aligned with GFR 2017 and GeM 4.0 guidelines. The contract valuation must be derived through meticulous market estimation, factoring in scale and candidate outreach complexity. An Earnest Money Deposit (EMD) set at 2 percent of the estimated value acts as a deterrent for non-serious bidders, accepted via online modes or Bank Guarantee. Upon successful selection, the vendor must furnish a Performance Bank Guarantee (PBG) ranging from 3 to 5 percent to secure faultless service execution throughout the tenure. Tender document fees are generally waived on GeM for transparency, though processing fees may apply. Liquidated Damages (LD) are strictly provisioned at 0.5 percent of the delayed milestone value per week of delay, capped at a maximum of 10 percent of the total contract value, safeguarding the authority against timeline slippages.

General Conditions of Contract (GCC) & Integrity Compliance

Contract compliance is governed by the General Conditions of Contract (GCC). All disputes arising out of the recruitment services shall be resolved amicably, failing which they will be referred to sole arbitration under the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996. Milestone billing tied to measurable deliverables ensures phased financial disbursement upon verification by APISETU Authority. The Defect Liability Period (DLP) extends to cover data accuracy and recruitment process integrity post-completion. An Integrity Pact must be executed for high-value tenders to ensure transparency, anti-corruption measures, and ethical conduct throughout the contractual lifecycle.
