e-Procurement Bidding Roadmap & Portal Workflow

Obtain a valid Digital Signature Certificate (DSC) and register the entity on the GeM portal to generate a unique token for participating in the IIMIDR tender process.

Attend the mandatory pre-bid clarification meeting to resolve technical queries regarding fellowship scope, research deliverables, and administrative requirements, ensuring all participants have a clear understanding of expectations.

Submit the two-cover bid comprising the technical proposal, detailing research credentials and eligibility, alongside the financial BoQ, ensuring all mandatory documents are uploaded before the deadline.

The technical evaluation committee reviews submissions for compliance; qualified bidders proceed to the commercial BoQ opening, where the lowest responsive bidder (L1) is identified for the fellowship.

Upon successful financial evaluation and approval by the competent authority, IIMIDR issues the formal Letter of Award (LoA), initiating the contractual engagement for the Post-Doctoral Fellowship.

Technical Qualification Matrix & Due Diligence Standards

Bidders participating in The Post of Post Doctoral Fellowsh 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 entity must provide proof of executing at least one similar research-based or academic fellowship management project for a government institution or university within the last five years.

Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees

The procurement for the Post-Doctoral Fellowship at IIMIDR involves a structured financial framework aligned with GFR 2017. The contract valuation is derived from the stipend, research contingency, and overhead costs. An EMD of 2% of the estimated value is mandatory to ensure bidder seriousness, though MSMEs are exempt under Rule 170. A Performance Bank Guarantee (PBG) of 3-5% of the total contract value must be submitted by the successful bidder to secure performance obligations. Tender document fees are generally waived on GeM, but if offline, they remain non-refundable. The Liquidated Damages (LD) clause is strictly enforced at 0.5% per week of delay, capped at 10% of the contract value, ensuring timely delivery of research outputs. Financial bids must be uploaded via the BoQ template, ensuring transparency and adherence to the cost-ceiling defined by the institute's budgetary provisions and fellowship guidelines.

General Conditions of Contract (GCC) & Integrity Compliance

The contract adheres to the General Conditions of Contract (GCC) of IIMIDR. Dispute resolution shall be governed by the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, with the venue fixed at Indore. Billing is structured on a milestone basis linked to research progress reports and institutional reviews. A Defect Liability Period (DLP) applies to the administrative deliverables provided by the fellow. Furthermore, an Integrity Pact is mandatory for high-value contracts to ensure transparency, ethical conduct, and the prevention of corrupt practices throughout the fellowship tenure, ensuring that both parties maintain the highest standards of academic and professional integrity.
