Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees

The procurement for deploying contractual clerks under the COA Authority for GRIID Sector 31 Chandigarh involves a structured financial architecture adhering to GFR 2017. The estimated contract valuation is determined through meticulous market analysis of manpower outsourcing rates. In compliance with financial norms, an Earnest Money Deposit (EMD) of 2% of the estimated value is mandated to deter frivolous bidding. Successful bidders must furnish a Performance Bank Guarantee (PBG) ranging from 3% to 5% of the total contract value to secure faithful execution. A nominal non-refundable tender document fee applies where applicable, though exemptions exist for registered MSMEs. Furthermore, a Liquidated Damages (LD) clause enforces a penalty of 0.5% of the delayed supply or milestone value per week of delay, capped strictly at a maximum of 10% of the contract value, safeguarding public interest against service delivery lapses.

General Conditions of Contract (GCC) & Integrity Compliance

Contractual compliance is governed by the General Conditions of Contract (GCC). Any disputes arising out of the contract shall be resolved amicably, failing which matters are referred to sole arbitration under the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act 1996, with the venue at Chandigarh. Payments are processed through milestone-based monthly billing upon verified attendance and performance sheets. A Defect Liability Period (DLP) is enforced for rectifying administrative or deployment discrepancies. Additionally, an Integrity Pact is mandatory for high-value contracts to ensure transparency and prevent corrupt practices.
