Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees
The procurement for the Basu of Professor Recruitment by Basu entails a rigorous financial framework aligned with GFR 2017 and GeM guidelines. The contract valuation must be realistically estimated based on market rates for academic recruitment services. An Earnest Money Deposit (EMD) fixed at 2 percent of the estimated tender value acts as a deterrent against non-serious bidders. Upon award, the successful service provider must furnish a Performance Bank Guarantee (PBG) ranging between 3 to 5 percent of the total contract value to secure uncompromised execution. A nominal non-refundable tender document fee may be levied to cover processing overheads. Furthermore, to enforce strict adherence to timelines, a Liquidated Damages (LD) clause is mandated at 0.5 percent of the contract value per week of delay, capped at a maximum of 10 percent, safeguarding the procuring entity against operational setbacks.
General Conditions of Contract (GCC) & Integrity Compliance
Contractual compliance is governed by General Conditions of Contract (GCC) enforcing milestone-based billing linked to distinct recruitment deliverables such as shortlisted candidate databases, interview management, and final selection rolls. A Defect Liability Period (DLP) applies to rectify any procedural anomalies or administrative discrepancies identified post-recruitment. For dispute resolution, any disagreements shall be primarily referred to sole arbitration under the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, with proceedings held in English at the jurisdiction of the procuring entity. Additionally, an Integrity Pact is mandatory for high-value contracts to maintain transparency, deterring corrupt practices throughout the lifecycle of the procurement process.
Procurement & Bidding FAQs — Basu of Professor Recruitment
Unless explicitly permitted in the special conditions of the tender document, joint ventures and consortiums are generally discouraged for professional recruitment services to ensure single-point accountability and direct contractual liability with the primary bidding agency.
The EMD, if submitted via Bank Guarantee, must be issued by a scheduled commercial bank in India, framed in the exact proforma provided in the tender document, and must remain valid for a period of 45 days beyond the final bid validity period.
Bids submitted must remain valid and open for acceptance for a minimum period of 120 days from the scheduled date of technical bid opening, during which bidders cannot modify or withdraw their financial or technical proposals.

Bidders must secure a minimum technical score of 70 marks out of a total 100 based on the evaluation matrix covering past experience, methodology, team competence, and presentation to be declared technically responsive.
