e-Procurement Bidding Roadmap & Portal Workflow

Bidders must ensure valid registration on the GeM portal or CPPP with a Class III Digital Signature Certificate to participate in the online interview procurement process for IES Authority.

A pre-bid clarification meeting will be conducted to address technical queries regarding the online interview platform, bandwidth requirements, and candidate authentication protocols to ensure complete transparency and fair competition.

Bidders are required to submit a two-cover bid system comprising a technical proposal detailing the platform architecture and a separate financial BoQ, ensuring no price disclosure in the technical cover.

The commercial BoQ will be opened only for bidders who qualify the technical evaluation criteria, with the lowest responsive bidder (L1) being identified based on the total evaluated cost.

Upon successful financial evaluation and internal approval, the IES Authority will issue the Letter of Award (LoA), formalizing the contract and initiating the service delivery timeline for the JRF interviews.

Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees

Financial bids must account for all applicable taxes, ensuring the total cost remains within the budgetary allocation of the procuring entity.

Billing is structured on a milestone basis linked to successful interview sessions. A Defect Liability Period (DLP) of six months applies to the platform functionality and data integrity. An Integrity Pact is mandatory for contracts exceeding the specified threshold, requiring bidders to commit to ethical practices. All deliverables must adhere to GFR 2017 guidelines, ensuring that the service provider maintains strict confidentiality regarding candidate data and interview proceedings throughout the contract tenure.
