Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees
The procurement for Cercind Advisor Recruitment entails a structured financial framework adhering to GFR 2017 principles. Contract valuation must be meticulously derived from realistic market estimates to prevent cost overruns. An Earnest Money Deposit (EMD) fixed strictly at 2 percent of the estimated value acts as a deterrent against frivolous bids, while a Performance Bank Guarantee (PBG) ranging from 3 to 5 percent safeguards the procuring entity against default during execution. In alignment with digital governance, tender document fees are waived on platforms like GeM, promoting open competition. Furthermore, the Liquidated Damages (LD) clause enforces a financial penalty of 0.5 percent of the delayed milestone value per week, capped at a maximum of 10 percent of the total contract value, ensuring timely delivery of advisory services.
General Conditions of Contract (GCC) & Integrity Compliance
Contract compliance is governed by the General Conditions of Contract (GCC), mandating milestone-based billing linked to verifiable deliverables and output reports. A Defect Liability Period (DLP) of twelve months applies post-completion to rectify any advisory discrepancies. Any disputes arising out of the contract shall be resolved amicably, failing which they shall be referred to sole arbitration under the provisions of the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, with the venue at the procuring entity headquarters. Additionally, an Integrity Pact shall be executed to maintain absolute transparency, prohibiting corrupt practices throughout the procurement lifecycle.
