Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees
The contract valuation for Iimidr Consultant Recruitment must be derived from a realistic market estimate. In accordance with GFR 2017, an EMD of 2% of the estimated value is mandatory to ensure bidder seriousness, though MSMEs may be exempted under Rule 170. A Performance Bank Guarantee (PBG) of 3-5% of the 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% of the contract value per week of delay, with a maximum ceiling of 10% of the total contract value. These parameters ensure financial protection for Iimidr while maintaining competitive bidding conditions, ensuring that the selected consultant remains accountable for timely deliverables and adherence to professional standards throughout the engagement period.
General Conditions of Contract (GCC) & Integrity Compliance
The contract shall be governed by the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, with disputes settled through sole arbitration in the jurisdiction of the procuring entity. Payments are structured against verified milestones to ensure output-based accountability. A Defect Liability Period (DLP) of twelve months applies to all consultancy deliverables to ensure quality and rectifications. Furthermore, an Integrity Pact must be signed for high-value contracts to ensure transparency and prevent corrupt practices. All statutory deductions, including TDS and GST, will be applied at source in strict compliance with the prevailing tax laws and GFR 2017 guidelines.
Procurement & Bidding FAQs — Iimidr Consultant Recruitment
Unless explicitly permitted in the tender document, JVs are generally discouraged for consultancy services to ensure individual accountability and clear professional liability.
The EMD Bank Guarantee must be submitted in the standard format provided in the tender document, issued by a scheduled commercial bank, and remain valid for 45 days beyond the final bid validity.
The bid validity period is typically 90 to 180 days from the date of technical bid opening, during which the bidder cannot withdraw or modify their offer.
Consultancy contracts are generally fixed-price agreements; price variation clauses are typically not included unless the contract duration exceeds two years and involves significant inflationary risks.
Technical marks are assigned based on a predefined matrix covering firm experience, consultant qualifications, methodology, and presentation, usually requiring a minimum threshold score of 70% to qualify for financial opening.
While MSMEs may be exempted from EMD under Rule 170, they are generally required to submit the Performance Bank Guarantee to ensure the successful execution of the contract.
