e-Procurement Bidding Roadmap & Portal Workflow

1

The bidder must complete digital signature registration on the CPPP or GeM portal, ensuring all organizational credentials are verified and mapped to the specific IGNTU procurement entity profile for access.

2

A pre-bid clarification meeting is conducted to address technical queries, scope ambiguities, and eligibility criteria, with all official responses published as corrigenda to ensure transparency for all prospective recruitment agencies.

3

Bidders submit a two-cover system comprising a technical bid with credentials and a separate commercial BoQ, ensuring technical evaluation precedes financial opening to maintain strict quality-based selection standards for IGNTU.

4

The commercial BoQ is opened only for technically qualified bidders, where the lowest evaluated responsive bidder is identified based on the total service cost, including all applicable taxes and statutory levies.

5

Upon successful financial evaluation and approval by the competent authority, a formal Letter of Award (LoA) is issued, marking the commencement of the contract and the submission of the PBG.

Technical Qualification Matrix & Due Diligence Standards

Bidders participating in Igntu Finance Officer Recruitment must satisfy the multi-tiered technical, financial, and statutory qualifying covenants detailed below:

Evaluation BenchmarkMandated 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 consecutive financial years, supported by audited balance sheets.
Statutory Benchmark The agency must provide proof of executing at least three similar recruitment projects for Central Universities or Government Autonomous Bodies within the last five years to ensure domain expertise.
Statutory Benchmark Mandatory submission of valid GSTIN, PAN, EPF, and ESI registrations, alongside a valid Labor License, is required to ensure full compliance with Indian labor and taxation laws.
Statutory Benchmark MSME and Startup entities are eligible for relaxation in prior turnover and experience criteria under Rule 170 of GFR 2017, provided they submit valid Udyam or DPIIT registration certificates.

Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees

The procurement for the IGNTU Finance Officer recruitment service requires a robust financial framework aligned with GFR 2017. The contract valuation must be determined based on the scope of recruitment agency services, including advertising, screening, and assessment. An Earnest Money Deposit (EMD) of 2% of the estimated value is mandatory to ensure bidder seriousness, though MSMEs may be exempted under Rule 170. A Performance Bank Guarantee (PBG) of 3-5% of the total contract value is required from the successful bidder to safeguard against non-performance. Tender document fees are generally waived on GeM, but if offline, they must be non-refundable. Liquidated Damages (LD) are strictly capped at 0.5% per week of delay, subject to a maximum of 10% of the contract value, ensuring accountability for timelines. This structure balances financial risk mitigation with the objective of attracting competitive bids for high-stakes administrative recruitment.

General Conditions of Contract (GCC) & Integrity Compliance

The contract shall be governed by the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, with disputes settled in the jurisdiction of the IGNTU headquarters. Billing will follow a milestone-based approach linked to successful candidate shortlisting and final appointment. A Defect Liability Period (DLP) of six months applies to the recruitment process, ensuring the agency remains responsible for any procedural lapses. An Integrity Pact is mandatory for high-value contracts to ensure transparency and prevent corrupt practices. All financial transactions and deliverables must strictly adhere to the General Financial Rules (GFR) 2017 to maintain audit readiness and institutional accountability throughout the engagement lifecycle.
