e-Procurement Bidding Roadmap & Portal Workflow

Vendors must ensure valid DSC and registration on the GeM portal or CPPP to access tender documents and participate in the electronic bidding process for the Archivesjan project.

A pre-bid clarification meeting will be conducted to address technical queries and scope ambiguities, with all amendments issued as corrigenda to ensure transparency and equal opportunity for all prospective bidders.

Bidders must submit a two-cover system comprising a technical bid with credentials and a separate financial BoQ, ensuring no price disclosure occurs within the technical documentation to maintain evaluation integrity.

The technical evaluation committee will assess bids against pre-qualification criteria, followed by the opening of financial BoQs for technically qualified bidders to determine the lowest responsive bidder, known as L1.

Upon successful financial evaluation and approval by the competent authority, a formal Letter of Award (LoA) will be issued, initiating the contract signing and subsequent mobilization of resources for execution.

Technical Qualification Matrix & Due Diligence Standards

Bidders participating in Archivesjan must satisfy the multi-tiered technical, financial, and statutory qualifying covenants detailed below:

Evaluation Benchmark	Mandated Technical & Financial Covenant
Statutory Benchmark	The bidder must demonstrate an average annual financial turnover of at least 30% of the estimated contract value during the last three consecutive financial years, supported by audited balance sheets.
Statutory Benchmark	The bidder must have successfully executed similar archival or digitization projects, providing at least one work order of 80%, two of 50%, or three of 40% of the estimated project value.
Statutory Benchmark	Mandatory submission of valid GSTIN, PAN, EPF registration, ESI registration, and a valid Labor License is required to ensure full statutory compliance with Indian labor and tax laws.
Statutory Benchmark	In accordance with Rule 170 of GFR 2017 and the Public Procurement Policy, MSMEs and Startups are eligible for EMD exemption, provided they submit valid Udyam or DPIIT registration certificates.

Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees

The contract valuation for the Archivesjan project under GONDA Authority must be determined via a detailed cost estimate based on current market rates. In accordance with GFR 2017, an Earnest Money Deposit (EMD) of 2% of the estimated value is mandatory to ensure bid seriousness, though MSMEs may seek exemptions under Rule 170. A Performance Bank Guarantee (PBG) ranging from 3% to 5% of the total contract value is required from the successful bidder to secure performance obligations. Tender document fees are generally waived on GeM, but if applicable, they remain non-refundable. The contract includes a stringent Liquidated Damages (LD) clause, stipulating a deduction of 0.5% of the contract value per week of delay, capped at a maximum of 10%. These parameters ensure financial discipline, mitigate procurement risks, and protect the public exchequer against potential project slippages or non-performance by the selected vendor.

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 will be strictly handled through the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, with the venue in Gonda. Payments will be processed based on milestone billing linked to verified deliverables. A Defect Liability Period (DLP) of twelve months post-completion is mandatory, during which the contractor must rectify any identified deficiencies. Furthermore, an Integrity Pact is required for high-value contracts to ensure transparency, prevent corruption, and maintain ethical standards throughout the project lifecycle, ensuring all procurement actions remain audit-compliant and accountable.
