Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees
The contract valuation for Crckozhikode Consultant Recruitment must be derived from a realistic market estimate to ensure competitive bidding. As per GFR 2017, an Earnest Money Deposit (EMD) of 2% of the estimated value is mandatory to ensure bidder seriousness, though MSMEs may be exempted under Rule 170. A Performance Bank Guarantee (PBG) of 3-5% of the contract value is required from the successful bidder to secure performance obligations. Tender document fees are generally waived on GeM, but if offline, must be non-refundable. The Liquidated Damages (LD) clause is strictly set at 0.5% of the contract value per week of delay, capped at a maximum of 10% of the total contract value. These parameters ensure financial discipline, mitigate risks of non-performance, and align with standard public procurement financial protocols to protect the interests of the procuring entity.
General Conditions of Contract (GCC) & Integrity Compliance
The contract shall be governed by the General Conditions of Contract (GCC) aligned with GFR 2017. Dispute resolution shall be conducted through the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, with the venue in Kozhikode. Payments will be released based on milestone-based deliverables verified by the project manager. A Defect Liability Period (DLP) of twelve months applies to all consultancy outputs. Furthermore, an Integrity Pact is mandatory for high-value contracts to ensure transparency, anti-corruption measures, and ethical conduct throughout the procurement lifecycle, ensuring that both the procuring entity and the consultant adhere to strict professional standards.
