Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees

The procurement for the Cihcs of Director Recruitment entails a meticulously structured financial architecture compliant with GFR 2017 and GeM guidelines. The contract valuation is determined through a detailed cost estimate reflecting specialized recruitment services. To ensure bidder seriousness, an Earnest Money Deposit (EMD) fixed at 2% of the estimated value is mandated, exempting registered micro and small enterprises. Upon successful selection, the L1 vendor must furnish a Performance Bank Guarantee (PBG) ranging from 3% to 5% of the total contract value, valid until the completion of all contractual obligations including the defect liability period. Tender document fees are maintained as non-refundable as per institutional norms. To safeguard against delivery delays, a stringent Liquidated Damages (LD) clause is enforced, levying 0.5% of the delayed milestone value per week of delay, subject to a maximum ceiling of 10% of the total contract value.

Dispute resolution shall be pursued through mutual conciliation, failing which matters will be referred to sole arbitration under the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, with proceedings held in English at the procuring entity's jurisdiction. Milestone billing is tied to measurable deliverables such as candidate sourcing, shortlisting, interview facilitation, and final placement. The Defect Liability Period (DLP) extends up to six months post-recruitment to address candidate attrition or replacement requirements. Furthermore, an Integrity Pact is mandatory for transparency.
