e-Procurement Bidding Roadmap & Portal Workflow
The agency must register on the GeM portal or CPPP using a valid Digital Signature Certificate (DSC) to obtain system credentials and access the specific tender document for the recruitment services.
A pre-bid meeting will be conducted to address technical queries and clarify scope requirements, ensuring all prospective bidders have a uniform understanding before the final submission deadline is reached.
Bidders must submit a two-cover system consisting of a technical proposal detailing methodology and credentials, and a separate financial bid containing the commercial quote, ensuring no price disclosure in technical documents.
The technical bids are evaluated against predefined criteria; qualified bidders then proceed to the commercial BoQ opening, where the lowest responsive bidder (L1) is identified for the final financial assessment.
Upon successful evaluation and approval by the competent authority, a formal Letter of Award (LoA) is issued to the successful bidder, initiating the contract signing and service commencement process.

Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees
The procurement for IIM Indore Director recruitment services requires a robust financial framework aligned with GFR 2017. The contract valuation must be based on a comprehensive cost estimate including professional fees, advertising, and administrative overheads. 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 essential to safeguard the institution against non-performance. 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 total contract value. This structure ensures financial accountability, mitigates risks associated with high-stakes executive search services, and maintains adherence to public procurement transparency standards while protecting the interests of the procuring entity.
General Conditions of Contract (GCC) & Integrity Compliance
The contract shall be governed by the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, with disputes settled in the jurisdiction of Indore. Billing is structured on a milestone basis linked to successful candidate shortlisting and final appointment. A Defect Liability Period (DLP) is applicable to ensure the quality of the recruitment process and candidate retention. 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 recruitment process remains fair, competitive, and compliant with institutional governance standards throughout the engagement period.
