Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees
The contract valuation for Hsac N/A Recruitment must be determined based on the estimated volume of human resource services required. In accordance with 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) 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 the GeM portal to promote transparency. The Liquidated Damages (LD) clause is strictly enforced at 0.5% of the contract value per week of delay, capped at a maximum of 10% of the total order value. These parameters ensure financial accountability and mitigate risks associated with service delivery delays or non-performance by the selected recruitment agency.

The contract shall be governed by the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, with disputes settled through sole arbitration in the jurisdiction of the Procuring Entity. Payments will be processed based on milestone billing linked to successful candidate onboarding. A Defect Liability Period (DLP) of six months applies to recruitment quality, ensuring replacement of candidates who leave prematurely. An Integrity Pact is mandatory for high-value contracts to ensure transparency and prevent corrupt practices. All service delivery must strictly adhere to the General Financial Rules (GFR) 2017 and the specific terms outlined in the GeM 4.0 service level agreement.
