e-Procurement Bidding Roadmap & Portal Workflow
Vendors must complete mandatory digital token registration and profile activation on the designated CPPP or GeM 4.0 portal using valid Class 3 Digital Signature Certificates to initiate the bidding process.
Interested bidders are required to participate in the scheduled pre-bid clarification meeting to resolve ambiguities concerning terms of reference, evaluation matrices, and deliverable timelines before submission deadlines.
Bidders must compile and submit the two-cover technical bid containing foundational credentials, statutory compliances, and methodology without disclosing any financial metrics on the portal.
Following technical shortlisting, the commercial BoQ and financial bids of qualified agencies are opened electronically on the portal to evaluate price competitiveness and determine the lowest responsive bidder.
Upon successful financial evaluation and requisite internal approvals, the Procuring Entity issues the formal Letter of Award (LoA) to the selected agency for formal contract execution.
