Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees

The procurement for GSV Professor Recruitment involves high-stakes human resource acquisition, requiring a robust financial framework. The contract valuation is determined based on the total cost of recruitment services, including advertising, screening, and interview logistics. An EMD of 2% of the estimated value is mandatory to ensure bidder seriousness, as per GFR 2017. Upon selection, the successful bidder must furnish a Performance Bank Guarantee (PBG) ranging from 3% to 5% of the contract value to safeguard against non-performance.
