Technical Qualification Matrix & Due Diligence Standards

Bidders participating in Internship Under Serb Dst Project 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 execution of at least one similar project or research-linked internship program for a government or academic institution within the last three years.
Statutory Benchmark	The bidder must possess valid statutory registrations including GSTIN, PAN, EPF, and ESI, along with a valid Labor License as per the Contract Labour (Regulation and Abolition) Act, 1970.
Statutory Benchmark	MSMEs and DPIIT-recognized startups are eligible for exemptions regarding EMD and prior turnover/experience criteria under Rule 170 of GFR 2017 and the Public Procurement Policy for Micro and Small Enterprises.

Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees

The procurement for internship services under the SERB-DST project at IIITDWD requires a meticulous financial structure aligned with GFR 2017. Given the specialized nature of research-linked internships, the contract valuation must be determined based on the approved project budget. An EMD of 2 percent 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 to 5 percent of the contract value is essential to secure performance throughout the project lifecycle. Tender fees are generally waived on the GeM portal to encourage competitive participation. The inclusion of a Liquidated Damages (LD) clause, capped at 0.5 percent per week of delay up to a maximum of 10 percent of the contract value, serves as a vital financial safeguard against project slippage, ensuring the timely delivery of research-oriented internship milestones.

General Conditions of Contract (GCC) & Integrity Compliance

The contract shall be governed by the General Financial Rules (GFR) 2017. All disputes arising from the internship engagement shall be resolved through the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, with the venue fixed at the IIITDWD jurisdiction. Payments will be released based on verified milestone achievements rather than upfront lump sums. A Defect Liability Period (DLP) will apply to the quality of internship deliverables. Furthermore, an Integrity Pact may be mandated for high-value contracts to ensure transparency, anti-corruption compliance, and ethical conduct throughout the project duration, binding both the service provider and the procuring entity to strict professional standards.
