Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees

The procurement for Project Research Scientist II Non Medical Temporary by BSI Authority requires stringent financial evaluation under GFR 2017. The estimated contract valuation must factor in professional service fees, statutory contributions, and contingency reserves. An Earnest Money Deposit (EMD) fixed at 2 percent of the estimated value is mandatory to deter frivolous bids, payable via demand draft, fixed deposit receipt, or bank guarantee. Upon award, a Performance Bank Guarantee (PBG) ranging between 3 to 5 percent of the total contract value must be furnished by the successful bidder, remaining valid until sixty days beyond the completion of all contractual obligations. Tender document fees, if applicable, remain non-refundable. To mitigate delivery risks, the contract enforces a Liquidated Damages (LD) clause stipulating a deduction of 0.5 percent of the delayed milestone value per week of delay, capped at a maximum of 10 percent of the total contract price.

General Conditions of Contract (GCC) & Integrity Compliance

Contract compliance is governed by the General Conditions of Contract, incorporating milestone-based billing linked to tangible research deliverables and progress reports. A Defect Liability Period is enforced for quality assurance of deliverables. Any disputes arising from the contract shall be resolved amicably, failing which matters are referred to sole arbitration under the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act, with proceedings seated locally. An Integrity Pact is mandatory for transparency.
