Perform a technical evaluation to shortlist qualified bidders, followed by the opening of the commercial BoQ for technically responsive participants to determine the L1 bidder based on total cost.

Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees

The procurement for a Junior Research Fellow (JRF) at IIIT Agartala must align with GFR 2017 guidelines. Given the nature of academic research, the contract valuation is typically based on the sanctioned project budget. An 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% is required post-award to secure contract performance. Tender document fees are generally waived on GeM to promote ease of doing business. Liquidated Damages (LD) are strictly capped at 0.5% per week of delay, with a maximum ceiling of 10% of the total contract value. These parameters ensure financial discipline while protecting the Institute from potential non-performance, ensuring that the research objectives are met within the stipulated financial and temporal frameworks defined by the funding agency.

General Conditions of Contract (GCC) & Integrity Compliance

The contract shall be governed by the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, with disputes settled in Agartala jurisdiction. Payments are linked to specific research milestones verified by the Principal Investigator. A Defect Liability Period (DLP) applies to the research output quality. An Integrity Pact is mandatory for high-value contracts to ensure transparency. All deliverables must adhere to the General Financial Rules (GFR) 2017. The Institute reserves the right to terminate the contract for non-performance, subject to the notice periods defined in the General Conditions of Contract (GCC), ensuring accountability throughout the research tenure.
