Evaluation BenchmarkMandated Technical & Financial Covenant
Annual Turnover 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.
Similar Project Experience The bidder must provide proof of successfully executing at least one similar recruitment or executive search project for a government or autonomous body.
Statutory Compliance Mandatory submission of valid GSTIN, PAN, EPF, ESI registration certificates, and a valid Labor License to ensure full adherence to Indian labor and tax laws.

Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees

The procurement for the Griid Joint Director recruitment service requires a robust financial framework aligned with GFR 2017. The contract valuation must be determined based on market benchmarking for executive search services. 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) ranging from 3% to 5% of the contract value is required from the successful bidder to safeguard against non-performance. Tender document fees are generally waived on GeM, but if applicable, must be non-refundable. Liquidated Damages (LD) are strictly capped at 0.5% per week of delay, subject to a maximum of 10% of the total contract value. These parameters ensure financial discipline, mitigate risks, and maintain accountability throughout the recruitment lifecycle, ensuring the procuring entity receives high-quality professional services within the stipulated budgetary and legal constraints.

General Conditions of Contract (GCC) & Integrity Compliance

The contract shall be governed by the General Financial Rules (GFR) 2017. Disputes arising shall be settled through arbitration under the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, with the venue in the jurisdiction of the procuring entity. Payments will follow a milestone-based structure linked to successful candidate onboarding. A Defect Liability Period (DLP) of six months applies to the quality of candidates provided. Furthermore, an Integrity Pact must be signed by the service provider to ensure transparency, ethical conduct, and the prevention of corrupt practices throughout the recruitment process, ensuring full compliance with the CVC guidelines.
