Bidders must obtain valid Class-III Digital Signature Certificates and complete mandatory registration on the GeM portal or CPPP to participate in the HSPCB Director recruitment tender process.
A pre-bid clarification meeting will be conducted to address technical queries, scope ambiguities, or eligibility concerns, with responses published as corrigenda to ensure a level playing field for all participants.
Bidders shall submit a two-cover system: Cover-I containing technical credentials, experience certificates, and statutory documents, and Cover-II containing the financial BoQ, ensuring no price disclosure in the technical bid.
Upon successful technical evaluation, the financial bids of technically qualified bidders will be opened on the portal, and the L1 bidder will be identified based on the lowest quoted service fee.

Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees
The procurement for HSPCB Director Recruitment requires a robust financial framework aligned with GFR 2017. The contract valuation must be estimated based on market benchmarks for executive search firms. 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 ensure service delivery standards. A non-refundable tender document fee, if applicable, should be processed via e-payment. The Liquidated Damages (LD) clause is strictly set at 0.5% per week of delay, capped at 10% of the total contract value, to mitigate risks of project slippage. These parameters ensure financial accountability, protect the procuring entity against non-performance, and maintain transparency throughout the recruitment lifecycle while adhering to standard public procurement financial protocols.
General Conditions of Contract (GCC) & Integrity Compliance
The contract shall be governed by the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, with disputes settled through a sole arbitrator appointed by the HSPCB. Payments will be structured against defined milestones, such as the submission of a shortlist and final candidate placement. A Defect Liability Period (DLP) of six months applies to the recruitment quality. An Integrity Pact is mandatory for high-value contracts to ensure transparency and prevent corrupt practices. All service delivery must adhere to the General Conditions of Contract (GCC) as prescribed under GFR 2017, ensuring that the recruitment process remains ethical, timely, and compliant with statutory requirements.
