Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees
The procurement for Assam N/A Recruitment entails strict adherence to GFR 2017 and GeM 4.0 financial paradigms. The estimated contract valuation dictates the financial thresholds, mandating a non-refundable tender document fee where applicable, alongside an Earnest Money Deposit (EMD) fixed at 2 percent of the estimated value to deter frivolous bidding. Upon successful adjudication, the lowest responsive bidder must furnish a Performance Bank Guarantee (PBG) ranging between 3 to 5 percent of the total contract value to secure against execution defaults. Furthermore, to ensure timely project completion, the General Conditions of Contract (GCC) enforce a robust Liquidated Damages (LD) clause, levying 0.5 percent of the delayed milestone value per week of delay, capped at a maximum of 10 percent of the aggregate contract price.
General Conditions of Contract (GCC) & Integrity Compliance
Contractual compliance is anchored in the General Conditions of Contract, mandating milestone-based billing linked to verifiable deliverables. The Defect Liability Period (DLP) extends for twelve months post-commissioning to rectify latent defects. An Integrity Pact is strictly enforced to maintain transparency, prohibiting corrupt practices. Any disputes arising from the execution shall be resolved through conciliation and binding arbitration in accordance with the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, with proceedings held in Assam under Indian substantive law.
Procurement & Bidding FAQs — Assam N/A Recruitment
Joint ventures are generally restricted unless explicitly permitted in the specific Bid Document. If allowed, all consortium members must jointly meet the financial and technical thresholds, with a designated lead partner.
The EMD must be submitted either via online portal transfer or as an irrevocable Bank Guarantee from a scheduled commercial bank in India, remaining valid for a minimum of 45 days beyond the final bid validity period.
Bids must remain valid and open for acceptance for a period of not less than 180 days from the scheduled date of technical bid opening, failing which the bid is liable to be rejected as non-responsive.
Unless the tender duration exceeds 18 months and PVC is explicitly authorized in the Special Conditions of Contract, prices quoted shall remain firm and fixed throughout the execution period.
Bidders must secure a minimum technical score of 70 marks out of 100 based on the QCBS matrix defined in the evaluation criteria to qualify for the commercial financial opening stage.
While MSMEs are exempt from EMD and tender fees under GFR 2017, prior experience and turnover relaxations are granted solely at the discretion of the procuring entity based on public safety and quality parameters.
