e-Procurement Bidding Roadmap & Portal Workflow
Registration on the GeM portal or CPPP using a valid Class III Digital Signature Certificate is the mandatory first step for all prospective bidders to access tender documents and participate.
A pre-bid clarification meeting will be conducted to address technical queries, scope ambiguities, or eligibility concerns, with responses published as corrigenda to ensure transparency and equal opportunity for all bidders.
Bidders must submit a two-cover system comprising a technical bid containing credentials, experience, and methodology, and a separate financial bid containing the BoQ, ensuring technical evaluation precedes commercial opening.
Upon successful technical qualification, the commercial BoQ of eligible bidders will be opened online, and the L1 bidder will be identified based on the lowest evaluated price for the services.
The Letter of Award (LoA) will be issued to the successful bidder, formalizing the contract agreement, subject to the submission of the required Performance Bank Guarantee within the stipulated timeframe.

Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees
The contract valuation for HSPCB Director recruitment must be determined based on market benchmarking for executive search services. An EMD of 2% of the estimated value is mandatory to ensure bidder seriousness, as per GFR 2017 guidelines, unless exempted for registered MSMEs. A Performance Bank Guarantee (PBG) of 3-5% of the contract value is required from the successful bidder to ensure service delivery quality. The tender document fee is non-refundable, reflecting administrative costs. Liquidated Damages (LD) are strictly capped at 0.5% per week of delay, subject to a maximum of 10% of the total contract value, ensuring accountability for timelines. These parameters align with standard public procurement norms to mitigate financial risk while ensuring competitive participation from qualified recruitment agencies. All financial instruments must be verified through the issuing bank's SFMS platform to ensure authenticity and prevent fraudulent submissions.
General Conditions of Contract (GCC) & Integrity Compliance
The contract shall be governed by the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, with disputes settled through sole arbitration in the jurisdiction of the HSPCB headquarters. Payments will be structured against defined milestones, such as candidate shortlisting and final placement. A Defect Liability Period (DLP) of six months applies to the recruitment quality, ensuring replacement if a candidate resigns prematurely. An Integrity Pact is mandatory for high-value contracts to ensure transparency and prevent corrupt practices. All service delivery must adhere to the General Financial Rules 2017, ensuring that the procurement process remains fair, ethical, and compliant with established public sector financial governance standards.
