Technical Qualification Matrix & Due Diligence Standards

Bidders participating in Iima _____________________________ Recruitment must satisfy the multi-tiered technical, financial, and statutory qualifying covenants detailed below:

Evaluation BenchmarkMandated 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 executing at least three similar recruitment or human resource management projects for central autonomous bodies or premier educational institutions in the last five years.
Statutory Benchmark The bidder must maintain valid statutory registrations including GSTIN, PAN, EPF, ESI, and a valid Labor License under the Contract Labour (Regulation and Abolition) Act, 1970.
Statutory Benchmark MSME and Startup entities are eligible for exemption from EMD and prior turnover/experience criteria under Rule 170 of GFR 2017, provided they submit valid Udyam or DPIIT registration certificates.

Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees

The contract valuation for IIMA recruitment services must be determined based on market benchmarking and historical expenditure. Per GFR 2017, an EMD of 2% of the estimated value is mandatory to ensure bidder seriousness, though MSMEs are exempted under Rule 170. A Performance Bank Guarantee (PBG) of 3-5% of the total contract value is required from the successful bidder to safeguard against performance failure. 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 contract value. This structure ensures financial discipline, mitigates risk for the procuring entity, and aligns with standard public procurement practices for professional services, ensuring that the vendor remains accountable throughout the recruitment lifecycle.

General Conditions of Contract (GCC) & Integrity Compliance

The contract adheres to the General Financial Rules (GFR) 2017. Disputes shall be resolved through the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, with the venue in Ahmedabad. Billing is structured on milestone achievements linked to successful candidate onboarding. A Defect Liability Period (DLP) of six months applies to recruitment quality, ensuring candidate retention. An Integrity Pact is mandatory for high-value contracts to ensure transparency and prevent corruption. All services must comply with the prevailing labor laws and IIMA internal policies, with the contract subject to periodic audits to ensure adherence to the defined scope and service level agreements.

Procurement & Bidding FAQs — Iima _____________________________

Are Joint Ventures (JV) or Consortiums eligible to bid for this recruitment tender?

Unless explicitly stated in the tender document, JVs are generally discouraged for service contracts to ensure single-point accountability, though sub-contracting may be permitted with prior written approval.

What is the prescribed format for the EMD Bank Guarantee?

The EMD Bank Guarantee must be issued by a scheduled commercial bank in India, strictly following the format provided in the tender document, and must remain valid for 45 days beyond the final bid validity.

What is the standard bid validity period for IIMA tenders?

The standard bid validity period is 180 days from the date of technical bid opening, during which the bidder cannot withdraw or modify their offer.

Does the contract include a Price Variation Clause (PVC)?

Recruitment service contracts are typically fixed-price contracts; therefore, Price Variation Clauses are generally not applicable unless the contract duration exceeds two years with specific statutory wage revisions.

How are technical evaluation marks calculated?

Technical evaluation is based on a Quality and Cost Based Selection (QCBS) or Least Cost Selection (LCS) method, where bidders must score a minimum threshold of 70% to qualify for the financial bid opening.

Can an MSME claim exemption from the Performance Bank Guarantee?

No, while MSMEs are exempted from EMD under Rule 170, they are generally required to submit the Performance Bank Guarantee to ensure contract performance security.
