e-Procurement Bidding Roadmap & Portal Workflow

Register the organization on the GeM portal or CPPP using a valid Class III Digital Signature Certificate (DSC) to ensure secure authentication and compliance with procurement portal protocols.

Participate in the pre-bid clarification meeting to address technical queries regarding the SRF recruitment scope, ensuring all prospective bidders have a uniform understanding of the project requirements.

Submit the two-cover bid consisting of a technical proposal detailing recruitment methodology and a separate financial BoQ, ensuring all documents are digitally signed and uploaded before the deadline.

The procurement committee conducts the commercial BoQ financial opening for technically qualified bidders, identifying the L1 vendor based on the lowest evaluated price for the specified recruitment services.

Upon successful financial evaluation and internal approval, the ICFRE Authority issues the formal Letter of Award (LoA) to the successful bidder, initiating the contract execution and PBG submission process.
