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 obtain necessary procurement tokens and access the specific IGNTU tender document.

Participate in the mandatory pre-bid clarification meeting to address technical queries regarding virtual interview software, bandwidth requirements, and security protocols, ensuring all participants have a uniform understanding of the scope.

Submit the two-cover bid comprising the technical proposal, including credentials and methodology, and the commercial BoQ, ensuring all documents are digitally signed and uploaded before the specified deadline.

Undergo a rigorous technical evaluation where bids are assessed against pre-defined criteria; only technically qualified bidders will proceed to the commercial BoQ financial opening stage for price comparison.

Receive the Letter of Award (LoA) upon successful selection, followed by the submission of the Performance Bank Guarantee and the formal signing of the contract agreement to initiate project execution.

Technical Qualification Matrix & Due Diligence Standards

Bidders participating in 2nd Corrigendum to Virtual Interviews must satisfy the multi-tiered technical, financial, and statutory qualifying covenants detailed below:

Evaluation Benchmark	Mandated Technical & Financial Covenant
Statutory Benchmark	The bidder must demonstrate an average annual turnover of at least 30% of the estimated contract value during the last three financial years, supported by audited balance sheets.
Statutory Benchmark	The bidder must provide proof of executing at least one similar project involving virtual interview management or large-scale digital assessment services for a Central or State Government entity.
Statutory Benchmark	Mandatory submission of valid GSTIN, PAN, EPF, ESI registration certificates, and a valid Labor License is required to ensure full compliance with Indian statutory and labor laws.
Statutory Benchmark	MSMEs and DPIIT-recognized startups are eligible for EMD exemption under Rule 170 of GFR 2017 and the Public Procurement Policy, provided they submit valid Udyam or Startup certificates.

Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees

The contract valuation for virtual interview services at IGNTU must be determined based on the estimated volume of sessions and technical infrastructure requirements. As per GFR 2017 guidelines, an EMD of 2% of the estimated value is mandatory to ensure bid earnestness, though MSMEs may seek exemption under Rule 170. A Performance Bank Guarantee (PBG) ranging from 3% to 5% of the total contract value is required from the successful bidder to safeguard against performance failure. The tender document fee is non-refundable, aligning with standard administrative cost recovery practices. Furthermore, the Liquidated Damages (LD) clause is strictly enforced at 0.5% per week of delay, capped at 10% of the contract value. This structure ensures financial accountability, mitigates procurement risks, and mandates that the service provider maintains high operational standards throughout the project lifecycle while adhering to the financial discipline prescribed by the Ministry of Finance.

General Conditions of Contract (GCC) & Integrity Compliance

The contract is governed by the General Financial Rules (GFR) 2017. All disputes arising shall be settled through the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, with the venue in the jurisdiction of the IGNTU authority. Payments follow a milestone-based billing structure linked to successful interview cycles. A Defect Liability Period (DLP) of six months applies to technical software performance. Furthermore, the bidder must sign an Integrity Pact to ensure transparency and ethical conduct throughout the procurement process, preventing corruption and ensuring that all service delivery standards meet the university's stringent academic and administrative requirements.
