Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees

The procurement for the IICA Graduate Insolvency Programme CET requires a robust financial framework aligned with GFR 2017. The contract valuation must be estimated based on historical expenditure and market benchmarking for examination services. An Earnest Money Deposit (EMD) of 2% of the estimated value is mandatory to ensure bidder seriousness, though MSMEs may seek exemption under Rule 170. A Performance Bank Guarantee (PBG) ranging from 3% to 5% of the contract value is required from the successful bidder to safeguard against non-performance. Tender document fees are generally waived on GeM, but if offline, 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 total contract value. These parameters ensure financial accountability, risk mitigation, and adherence to the principle of value for money in public procurement.

General Conditions of Contract (GCC) & Integrity Compliance

The contract shall be governed by the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, with disputes settled through sole arbitration in New Delhi. Billing will follow a milestone-based approach linked to successful completion of examination phases. A Defect Liability Period (DLP) of six months post-recruitment cycle is mandatory to address any discrepancies in candidate data or process integrity. Furthermore, the bidder must sign an Integrity Pact to ensure transparency and ethical conduct. All payments are subject to statutory tax deductions at source (TDS) and verification of service delivery against the defined scope of work and service level agreements.
