e-Procurement Bidding Roadmap & Portal Workflow

Vendors must register on the GeM portal with a valid DSC to obtain a unique token, ensuring compliance with IIM Kashipur procurement guidelines and CPPP integration for transparent bidding processes.

A mandatory pre-bid meeting is conducted to address technical queries and scope clarifications, ensuring all prospective bidders have a uniform understanding of the research project requirements and deliverables.

Bidders submit a two-cover system comprising a technical bid with credentials and a separate financial BoQ, ensuring that technical evaluation precedes the opening of commercial price bids for fairness.

The technical evaluation committee reviews submissions against pre-defined criteria; only technically qualified bidders proceed to the BoQ financial opening stage, maintaining the integrity of the competitive bidding process.

Upon successful financial evaluation, the L1 bidder is issued a formal Letter of Award (LoA), initiating the contract signing process and the subsequent commencement of the research engagement.

Technical Qualification Matrix & Due Diligence Standards

Bidders participating in The Post of Junior Research F 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 bidder must provide proof of executing at least one similar research or academic support project of equivalent scale within the last three years to ensure operational competency.
Statutory Benchmark	Mandatory submission of valid GSTIN, PAN, EPF, and ESI registrations is required, alongside a valid Labor License to ensure full compliance with Indian statutory and labor welfare regulations.
Statutory Benchmark	In accordance with Rule 170 of GFR 2017, MSME and DPIIT-recognized startups are exempted from EMD requirements, provided they submit valid Udyam or Startup registration certificates during the bid submission.

Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees

The procurement for the Junior Research Fellow position at IIM Kashipur requires a meticulous financial framework aligned with GFR 2017. The contract valuation must be derived from the approved budgetary allocation for research projects. An Earnest Money Deposit (EMD) of 2% of the estimated value serves as a bid security, while a Performance Bank Guarantee (PBG) of 3-5% ensures contract fulfillment. Tender document fees are generally waived on GeM, but if offline, they remain non-refundable. Liquidated Damages (LD) are strictly capped at 0.5% per week of delay, with a maximum ceiling of 10% of the total contract value. These parameters ensure financial discipline and mitigate risks for the procuring entity. All financial instruments must be verifiable through the SFMS platform to maintain transparency and prevent fraudulent submissions, ensuring that the research project remains financially viable throughout its lifecycle.

General Conditions of Contract (GCC) & Integrity Compliance

The contract adheres to the General Financial Rules (GFR) 2017, incorporating an Integrity Pact to ensure transparency. Dispute resolution is governed by the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, with the Director of IIM Kashipur acting as the sole arbitrator. Billing is structured on a milestone basis linked to research deliverables and progress reports. A Defect Liability Period (DLP) of six months applies to ensure the quality of outputs. All contractual obligations must align with the standard GCC, ensuring that the research fellow's engagement remains compliant with institutional policies and national procurement standards throughout the tenure.
