e-Procurement Bidding Roadmap & Portal Workflow

Register the procuring entity on the GeM portal and generate a unique Bid Number, ensuring all technical specifications and service level agreements are uploaded for prospective bidder access and review.

Conduct a mandatory pre-bid clarification meeting to address technical queries, scope ambiguities, and eligibility concerns, subsequently issuing a formal corrigendum to all participants to ensure absolute transparency and fair competition.

Bidders must submit a two-cover bid comprising a technical proposal detailing manpower competency and an unpriced commercial bid, ensuring all mandatory documents are uploaded to the GeM portal before deadline.

The technical evaluation committee reviews submitted credentials against pre-qualification criteria; only technically qualified bidders proceed to the financial BoQ opening, where the lowest responsive bidder is identified for selection.

Upon successful financial evaluation and approval by the competent authority, the IIITM Authority issues a formal Letter of Award (LoA) to the successful bidder, initiating the contract signing process.

Technical Qualification Matrix & Due Diligence Standards

Bidders participating in Lower Division Clerk 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% 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 successfully executing similar manpower supply contracts for government or autonomous institutions, specifically providing at least three work orders of equivalent scale.
Statutory Benchmark	The bidder must possess valid statutory registrations including GSTIN, PAN, EPF, ESI, and a valid Labor License under the Contract Labour (Regulation and Abolition) Act, 1970.
Statutory Benchmark	In accordance with Rule 170 of GFR 2017 and the Public Procurement Policy, MSMEs and Startups are exempted from EMD submission upon furnishing a valid Udyam Registration Certificate.

Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees

The procurement for Lower Division Clerk services by IIITM Authority necessitates a rigorous financial framework aligned with GFR 2017. The contract valuation must be based on prevailing minimum wage notifications, including statutory contributions. An Earnest Money Deposit (EMD) of 2% of the estimated value is mandatory to ensure bidder seriousness, though MSMEs may seek exemptions under Rule 170. A Performance Bank Guarantee (PBG) of 3-5% of the total contract value is required upon award to secure service delivery. Tender document fees are generally waived on GeM, but if offline, must be non-refundable. Liquidated Damages (LD) are strictly capped at 0.5% per week of delay, with a maximum ceiling of 10% of the contract value. These parameters ensure financial accountability, mitigate operational risks, and protect the procuring entity against potential service lapses or non-performance during the contract tenure.

General Conditions of Contract (GCC) & Integrity Compliance

The contract shall be governed by the General Financial Rules (GFR) 2017. Any disputes arising shall be resolved through the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, with the venue fixed at the IIITM campus. Payments are processed on a monthly milestone basis upon submission of verified attendance and statutory compliance proof. A Defect Liability Period (DLP) is applicable to service quality, ensuring adherence to performance standards. For high-value contracts, an Integrity Pact is mandatory to maintain transparency and prevent corrupt practices, ensuring that all parties adhere to ethical procurement standards throughout the contract lifecycle.

Procurement & Bidding FAQs — Lower Division Clerk

Are Joint Ventures permitted for this LDC procurement?

What is the prescribed format for the EMD Bank Guarantee?

What is the standard bid validity period for this tender?

How are technical evaluation marks assigned?

Technical evaluation is based on a pass-fail criteria against the defined eligibility standards rather than a weighted scoring system.

Can a bidder withdraw their bid after submission?

Bidders may withdraw or modify their bids on the GeM portal before the tender closing date and time; post-deadline withdrawals result in EMD forfeiture.
