e-Procurement Bidding Roadmap & Portal Workflow
Register the procuring entity and bidders on the GeM portal using valid DSC tokens, ensuring all organizational profiles are verified and mapped according to the ICCR procurement guidelines.
Conduct a pre-bid clarification meeting to address technical queries regarding the recruitment scope, ensuring all amendments are published as corrigenda on the portal to maintain transparency for all participants.
Submit the two-cover bid consisting of a technical proposal detailing the recruitment methodology and a separate commercial BoQ, ensuring no financial information is disclosed within the technical cover documents.
Perform the commercial BoQ financial opening for technically qualified bidders only, ensuring the evaluation committee ranks the L1 bidder based on the lowest total cost of services provided.

Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees
The procurement for ICCR Director recruitment services requires a robust financial framework aligned with GFR 2017. The contract valuation must be determined based on market benchmarking for executive search firms. An Earnest Money Deposit (EMD) of 2 percent of the estimated value is mandatory to ensure bidder sincerity, though MSMEs may be exempted under Rule 170. A Performance Bank Guarantee (PBG) of 3 to 5 percent of the contract value is essential to safeguard against non-performance. Tender document fees are generally waived on GeM, but if offline, must be non-refundable. The Liquidated Damages (LD) clause is strictly set at 0.5 percent per week of delay, capped at 10 percent of the total contract value, ensuring timely delivery of the recruitment mandate. These parameters collectively mitigate financial risk and ensure that only financially stable and committed agencies participate in the high-stakes recruitment process for the ICCR.
General Conditions of Contract (GCC) & Integrity Compliance
The contract shall strictly adhere to the General Financial Rules 2017. All disputes arising from the recruitment mandate shall be resolved through the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, with the venue in New Delhi. Billing will follow a milestone-based approach linked to successful candidate onboarding. A Defect Liability Period (DLP) of six months applies to the recruitment quality. Furthermore, an Integrity Pact is mandatory for high-value contracts to ensure transparency, preventing corruption and ensuring that both the ICCR and the service provider maintain ethical standards throughout the tenure of the recruitment engagement.
