Bidders shall submit a two-cover system comprising a technical proposal detailing methodology and credentials, followed by a separate commercial BoQ containing the financial quote for the recruitment services.
Upon successful technical evaluation, the commercial BoQ of qualified bidders will be opened on the portal to determine the L1 bidder based on the lowest evaluated financial quote.

Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees
The procurement for IIMCal Director Recruitment involves high-stakes professional services requiring a robust financial framework. Given the specialized nature of executive search, the contract valuation must be estimated based on market benchmarks for leadership acquisition. An EMD of 2 percent of the estimated value is mandated to ensure bidder seriousness, while a PBG of 5 percent serves as a safeguard for performance delivery. Per GFR 2017, tender document fees are generally waived on the GeM portal, though administrative costs may apply. The inclusion of a Liquidated Damages clause at 0.5 percent per week, capped at 10 percent of the contract value, is essential to mitigate risks associated with delays in the recruitment timeline. This structure ensures that the procuring entity maintains financial leverage while adhering to standard public procurement guidelines, balancing fiscal prudence with the necessity of attracting top-tier executive search firms for institutional leadership.
General Conditions of Contract (GCC) & Integrity Compliance
The contract shall be governed by the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, with disputes settled in Kolkata. Payments will be structured against defined milestones, specifically upon the submission of the long-list, short-list, and final appointment. A Defect Liability Period of six months post-recruitment is mandatory to ensure candidate retention and suitability. Furthermore, an Integrity Pact must be executed to uphold transparency and ethical standards throughout the procurement cycle. All contractual obligations must strictly adhere to the General Financial Rules 2017, ensuring that the recruitment process remains compliant with institutional governance and public accountability standards.
