e-Procurement Bidding Roadmap & Portal Workflow

The bidder must register on the GeM portal using a valid Digital Signature Certificate (DSC) and ensure all organizational credentials are verified to participate in the IIM Amritsar tender process.

A pre-bid meeting will be conducted to address technical queries, scope clarifications, and eligibility concerns, ensuring all prospective bidders have a uniform understanding of the research personnel recruitment requirements.

Bidders must submit a two-cover bid comprising a comprehensive technical proposal detailing recruitment methodology and a separate financial BoQ, ensuring no price disclosure occurs within the technical submission documents.

Upon successful technical evaluation, the financial bids of technically qualified vendors will be opened on the GeM portal to determine the L1 bidder based on the lowest evaluated cost.

The IIM Amritsar Authority will issue a formal Letter of Award (LoA) to the successful bidder, initiating the contract execution phase upon submission of the required Performance Bank Guarantee.

Technical Qualification Matrix & Due Diligence Standards

Bidders participating in Recruitment of Research Perso 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 executing at least three similar recruitment or human resource management projects for central government or premier academic institutions within the last five years.
Statutory Benchmark	Mandatory submission of valid GSTIN, PAN, EPF, and ESI registrations, along with a valid Labor License under the Contract Labour (Regulation and Abolition) Act, 1970, is required for compliance.
Statutory Benchmark	MSMEs and Startups are eligible for exemption from EMD and prior turnover requirements 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 recruitment services must be determined based on the estimated volume of research personnel to be onboarded. In alignment with GFR 2017, 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) ranging from 3 to 5 percent of the total contract value is required from the successful bidder to secure performance obligations. Tender document fees are generally waived on GeM, but if offline, they must be non-refundable. The Liquidated Damages (LD) clause is strictly capped at 0.5 percent of the contract value per week of delay, with a maximum ceiling of 10 percent of the total contract value. These parameters ensure financial accountability and protect the IIM Amritsar Authority against potential service delivery failures or delays in the recruitment timeline.

General Conditions of Contract (GCC) & Integrity Compliance

The contract shall be governed by the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, with disputes settled in Amritsar jurisdiction. Billing will follow a milestone-based approach linked to the successful onboarding of research personnel. A Defect Liability Period (DLP) of six months applies to recruitment quality, ensuring candidates meet specified qualifications. An Integrity Pact is mandatory for high-value contracts to ensure transparency and prevent corrupt practices. All service delivery must adhere to the General Financial Rules (GFR) 2017, ensuring that the IIM Amritsar Authority maintains strict financial discipline and operational compliance throughout the tenure of the recruitment service agreement.
