Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees
The procurement for IIITDMJ Director recruitment services requires a robust commercial framework aligned with GFR 2017. Given the specialized nature of executive search, the contract valuation must be estimated based on market benchmarks for headhunting premium academic leadership. 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 essential to secure the service delivery timeline. Tender document fees should be kept nominal or waived in line with GeM guidelines to encourage competitive participation. The Liquidated Damages (LD) clause, set at 0.5% per week of delay up to a maximum of 10%, acts as a critical deterrent against slippages in the recruitment lifecycle. All financial transactions must adhere to the General Financial Rules to ensure transparency, accountability, and value for money in the public procurement process.
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 Jabalpur. Payments will be structured against specific milestones, such as the submission of the long-list and final candidate selection. A Defect Liability Period (DLP) of six months post-recruitment is required to ensure candidate retention. Furthermore, an Integrity Pact must be signed for high-value contracts to ensure transparency and prevent corrupt practices. All service delivery must strictly adhere to the General Conditions of Contract (GCC) stipulated by the Ministry of Finance, ensuring compliance with all statutory labor and taxation laws throughout the engagement.
