e-Procurement Bidding Roadmap & Portal Workflow
Register the procuring entity on the GeM portal, generate a unique Bid Number, and publish the Request for Proposal (RFP) with detailed Scope of Work and technical evaluation parameters.
Conduct a mandatory pre-bid meeting via video conferencing to address technical queries, clarify recruitment deliverables, and issue formal corrigendum if necessary to ensure transparency and competitive participation among bidders.
Bidders submit a two-cover system: Cover 1 contains technical credentials, statutory documents, and experience proofs; Cover 2 contains the financial BoQ, ensuring no price disclosure in the technical bid.
The Technical Evaluation Committee (TEC) evaluates bids against pre-defined criteria. Qualified bidders proceed to the financial opening stage, where the lowest responsive bidder (L1) is identified via GeM system.
Post-financial evaluation and approval by the Competent Authority, the Institute issues the Letter of Award (LoA) to the L1 bidder, initiating the contract signing and PBG submission process.

Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees
The contract valuation for the IIIT Kota Manager recruitment must be derived from a realistic market assessment of professional search firm fees. Per GFR 2017, 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% 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. The Liquidated Damages (LD) clause is strictly capped at 0.5% per week of delay, with a maximum ceiling of 10% of the total contract value. This structure ensures fiscal discipline while maintaining compliance with public procurement norms, protecting the Institute against potential service delivery failures or timeline slippages during the recruitment lifecycle.
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 Kota. Payments will be released based on milestone achievements, such as the submission of a shortlist and final candidate onboarding. A Defect Liability Period (DLP) of six months applies to the quality of recruitment services. 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 Financial Rules 2017, ensuring that the recruitment process remains fair, competitive, and legally defensible throughout the engagement duration.
