e-Procurement Bidding Roadmap & Portal Workflow

Register the organization on the GeM portal using a valid DSC and organizational credentials to obtain the necessary procurement token for accessing the IIM Sambalpur tender documents.

Attend the mandatory pre-bid clarification meeting to address technical queries, scope ambiguities, and site-specific requirements, ensuring all prospective bidders have a uniform understanding of the ICFRE HFRI project.

Submit the two-cover technical bid containing pre-qualification documents, technical specifications, and compliance statements, ensuring all mandatory certifications are uploaded to the portal before the specified deadline.

Participate in the commercial BoQ financial opening process where the system evaluates the lowest responsive bidder based on the quoted rates, ensuring compliance with the IIM Sambalpur financial guidelines.

Receive the formal Letter of Award (LoA) following successful technical and financial evaluation, marking the commencement of the contract period and the initiation of the performance security submission process.

Technical Qualification Matrix & Due Diligence Standards

Bidders participating in Icfre Hfri 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 financial 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 successful completion of at least one similar project of comparable scope and complexity for a government or autonomous body within the last five years.
Statutory Benchmark	The bidder must possess valid statutory registrations including GSTIN, PAN, EPF, ESI, and a valid Labor License as per the prevailing labor laws applicable to the project location.
Statutory Benchmark	MSMEs and Startups are eligible for relaxation in prior turnover and experience criteria under Rule 170 of GFR 2017 and the Public Procurement Policy, provided they submit valid Udyam registration certificates.

Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees

The contract valuation for the ICFRE HFRI project under IIM Sambalpur must be determined via a detailed cost estimate aligned with GFR 2017 guidelines. An Earnest Money Deposit (EMD) of 2% of the estimated value is mandatory to ensure bidder seriousness, though MSMEs may be exempted per Rule 170. A Performance Bank Guarantee (PBG) ranging from 3% to 5% of the contract value is required upon award to secure performance obligations. Tender document fees are generally waived on GeM, but if applicable, they 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. These parameters ensure financial accountability, mitigate procurement risks, and protect the procuring entity against potential defaults or delays in project execution while maintaining transparency in public spending.

General Conditions of Contract (GCC) & Integrity Compliance

The contract shall be governed by the General Financial Rules (GFR) 2017. Dispute resolution will be conducted under the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, with the venue at Sambalpur. Payments will be processed based on verified milestone achievements. A Defect Liability Period (DLP) of 12 months is mandatory post-completion to ensure quality maintenance. For high-value contracts, an Integrity Pact must be signed to ensure transparency and prevent corruption. All contractors must adhere to strict safety and environmental standards, with non-compliance resulting in financial penalties or contract termination as per the standard GCC terms defined by IIM Sambalpur.
