Submit formal written queries prior to the scheduled pre-bid clarification meeting to address ambiguities in the recruitment scope, terms of reference, and compliance requirements outlined by the procuring entity Bhu.

Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees
The procurement for Bhu N/A Recruitment by Bhu demands rigorous adherence to GFR 2017 and GeM 4.0 frameworks. Contract valuation must be meticulously derived from realistic market estimates to avoid budgetary discrepancies. The Earnest Money Deposit (EMD) is strictly set at 2 percent of the estimated value to deter frivolous bidders, submitted via bank guarantee or electronic transfer. Upon successful award, the selected vendor must furnish a Performance Bank Guarantee (PBG) ranging between 3 to 5 percent of the total contract value to safeguard against default. Tender document fees, where applicable, remain strictly non-refundable. To mitigate execution delays, the contract incorporates a stringent 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, ensuring strict adherence to timelines.
General Conditions of Contract (GCC) & Integrity Compliance
The contract strictly incorporates General Conditions of Contract (GCC) mandating dispute resolution through arbitration under the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, with proceedings held in English and jurisdiction vested locally. Milestone billing is tied directly to the successful delivery of recruitment stages, verified through Service Level Agreements (SLAs). A Defect Liability Period (DLP) applies to rectify any post-recruitment discrepancies or administrative non-compliances. Furthermore, an Integrity Pact is mandatory for high-value tenders to ensure transparency, prohibiting corrupt practices and collusion throughout the execution lifecycle.
