Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees

The procurement for Junior Research Fellow engagement under BBMB Authority requires rigorous financial evaluation adhering to GFR 2017 and GeM 4.0 guidelines. The contract valuation is assessed based on man-month rates and fellowship duration. An Earnest Money Deposit (EMD) of 2% of the estimated cost must be submitted by bidders to secure the tender, safeguard against frivolous bids, and ensure financial seriousness. Upon successful award, the selected vendor must furnish a Performance Bank Guarantee (PBG) ranging between 3% and 5% of the total contract value to cover performance risks during the execution phase. A nominal, non-refundable tender document fee is levied as per institutional policy. Furthermore, to enforce timely delivery of research milestones and deliverables, a stringent Liquidated Damages (LD) clause of 0.5% of the delayed milestone value per week, subject to a maximum cap of 10% of the total contract value, is explicitly integrated into the General Conditions of Contract.

General Conditions of Contract (GCC) & Integrity Compliance

Contract compliance is governed strictly by the General Conditions of Contract (GCC). All disputes arising out of or in connection with the contract shall be resolved through amicable bilateral negotiations failing which they shall be referred to sole arbitration under the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, with the venue at the BBMB Authority headquarters. Milestone billing shall apply based on the successful acceptance of periodic research reports and deliverables by the designated technical committee. The Defect Liability Period (DLP) extends up to twelve months post-completion to rectify any discrepancies in research output. Additionally, an Integrity Pact is mandatory to ensure transparency, anti-corruption compliance, and ethical standards throughout the contract lifecycle.
