e-Procurement Bidding Roadmap & Portal Workflow

Step 1: Vendors must register on the CPPP or GeM 4.0 portal using a valid Class 3 Digital Signature Certificate (DSC) to access tender documents, download specifications, and submit official queries.

Step 2: Attend the mandatory pre-bid clarification meeting organized by BBAU Authority to address technical anomalies, scope clarifications, and proposed amendments to the tender document.

Step 3: Prepare and upload the two-cover technical bid encompassing pre-qualification credentials, statutory compliances, technical compliance sheets, and earnest money deposit instruments without revealing financial details.

Step 4: Post technical evaluation, shortlisted bidders participate in the commercial BoQ financial opening on the portal, where lowest evaluated responsive bids are automatically ranked.

Step 5: The competent authority issues the formal Letter of Award (LoA) to the L1 bidder, requiring formal acceptance and submission of the performance bank guarantee within the stipulated timeframe.

Technical Qualification Matrix & Due Diligence Standards

Bidders participating in Raquo 2026 must satisfy the multi-tiered technical, financial, and statutory qualifying covenants detailed below:

Evaluation Benchmark	Mandated Technical & Financial Covenant
Statutory Benchmark	Bidders must demonstrate an average annual financial turnover of at least 30 percent of the estimated contract value during the last three consecutive financial years, supported by audited balance sheets and profit-and-loss statements.
Statutory Benchmark	The bidding entity must have successfully executed similar nature projects of matching scale for central or state autonomous bodies, central universities, or public sector undertakings during the last seven years.
Statutory Benchmark	Mandatory possession of valid statutory registrations including Goods and Services Tax Identification Number (GSTIN), Permanent Account Number (PAN), Employees Provident Fund (EPF), Employees State Insurance (ESI), and a valid Labor License.
Statutory Benchmark	In accordance with Rule 170 of GFR 2017 and the Public Procurement Policy for Micro and Small Enterprises (MSEs) Order 2012, registered MSMEs and Startups are exempted from submitting EMD and tender fees upon furnishing valid UDYAM certificates.

Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees

The procurement for Raquo 2026 by BBAU Authority operates under a stringent commercial framework aligned with GFR 2017 and GeM standards. The estimated contract valuation dictates a mandatory Earnest Money Deposit (EMD) pegged at 2% of the estimated cost to deter frivolous bids. Upon successful award, the selected vendor must furnish a Performance Bank Guarantee (PBG) ranging from 3% to 5% of the total contract value to safeguard against execution default. Tender document fees are levied as non-refundable administrative charges, though MSMEs may qualify for exemptions under prevailing policies. To ensure timely project completion, a strict Liquidated Damages (LD) clause is enforced, levying a penalty of 0.5% of the contract value per week of delay, capped at a maximum of 10%, thereby compelling strict adherence to delivery schedules and performance metrics.

General Conditions of Contract (GCC) & Integrity Compliance

Contractual compliance for Raquo 2026 is governed by standard General Conditions of Contract (GCC). All disputes arising out of the execution shall be resolved through arbitration in accordance with the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act 1996, with the venue jurisdiction set at the BBAU Authority headquarters. Financial disbursement follows a milestone-based billing schedule tied to verifiable physical progress. A Defect Liability Period (DLP) of twelve months mandates the contractor to rectify structural or operational anomalies at their own expense. Furthermore, an Integrity Pact is mandatory for high-value contracts to ensure transparency, prevent corrupt practices, and bind both parties to ethical procurement standards.
