e-Procurement Bidding Roadmap & Portal Workflow

Bidders must obtain valid Digital Signature Certificates and register on the GeM portal or CPPP to access tender documents, ensuring all organizational credentials are verified against the IIFM Authority requirements.

A pre-bid clarification meeting will be conducted to address technical queries, scope ambiguities, and eligibility concerns, with all responses published as formal corrigenda to ensure transparency for all potential bidders.

Bidders shall submit a two-cover system comprising a technical bid with credentials and a separate financial BoQ, ensuring no price information is disclosed within the technical proposal to maintain evaluation integrity.

Following technical qualification, the financial bids of responsive bidders will be opened on the GeM portal, and the L1 bidder will be identified based on the lowest evaluated price quote.

The IIFM Authority will issue a formal Letter of Award to the successful bidder, contingent upon the submission of the required Performance Bank Guarantee and signing of the formal contract agreement.

Bidders participating in List of Shortlisted Candidates the Interview T 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 percent of the estimated contract value during the last three consecutive financial years, supported by audited balance sheets.
Statutory Benchmark	The bidder must provide proof of successful completion of at least one similar recruitment or interview management project for a government or autonomous institution within the last five years.
Statutory Benchmark	Mandatory submission of valid GSTIN, PAN, EPF, ESI, and a valid Labor License is required to ensure full statutory compliance with Indian labor laws and tax regulations.
Statutory Benchmark	MSME and DPIIT-recognized startups are eligible for exemption from EMD and prior turnover/experience criteria under Rule 170 of GFR 2017, provided they submit valid registration certificates.

Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees

The contract valuation for the IIFM Authority recruitment support services must be determined based on the estimated volume of candidates and interview logistics. In alignment with GFR 2017, an EMD of 2 percent of the estimated value is mandatory, unless bidders are registered MSMEs or startups, which are exempt under Rule 170. A Performance Bank Guarantee (PBG) ranging from 3 to 5 percent of the total contract value is required from the successful bidder to ensure service quality. Tender document fees are generally waived on the GeM portal to encourage competitive participation. The Liquidated Damages (LD) clause is strictly enforced at 0.5 percent per week of delay, capped at a maximum of 10 percent of the total contract value. This structure ensures financial discipline, mitigates procurement risks, and protects the procuring entity against performance failures while maintaining compliance with standard public procurement financial norms.

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 Bhopal. Payments are structured on milestone-based deliverables, specifically upon the successful submission of shortlisted candidate lists. A Defect Liability Period (DLP) of six months applies to ensure the accuracy of data and process integrity. Furthermore, an Integrity Pact is mandatory for high-value contracts to prevent corrupt practices. The contractor must adhere to all General Financial Rules (GFR) 2017, ensuring that all personnel deployed are compliant with statutory requirements, and the IIFM Authority reserves the right to terminate the contract for non-performance.
