e-Procurement Bidding Roadmap & Portal Workflow
Register the procuring entity and bidders on the Central Public Procurement Portal (CPPP) or GeM 4.0 using valid Digital Signature Certificates (DSC) to ensure secure and authenticated electronic document submission.
Conduct a mandatory pre-bid clarification meeting to address technical queries, scope ambiguities, and eligibility criteria, ensuring all prospective bidders receive uniform information through published corrigenda on the procurement portal.
Execute a two-cover system submission where bidders upload technical credentials in the first cover and financial BoQ in the second, ensuring technical evaluation precedes the opening of financial bids.
Perform a rigorous technical evaluation by a committee to shortlist qualified bidders, followed by the electronic opening of the financial BoQ for those meeting all specified technical and eligibility standards.
Issue the Letter of Award (LoA) to the L1 bidder after final approval, followed by the signing of the formal contract agreement and submission of the Performance Bank Guarantee.

Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees
The procurement for the IIM Sambalpur Director recruitment consultancy requires a robust financial framework. Given the high-stakes nature of executive search, the contract valuation must be estimated based on market benchmarks for leadership hiring. An EMD of 2 percent of the estimated value is mandatory to ensure bidder seriousness, while a PBG of 5 percent of the contract value acts as a safeguard for performance delivery. A non-refundable tender fee is typically waived for MSMEs under GFR 2017 provisions. The inclusion of a Liquidated Damages clause, set at 0.5 percent per week of delay up to a maximum of 10 percent of the contract value, is essential to enforce strict adherence to the recruitment timeline. This structure ensures fiscal discipline and protects the institute against non-performance, aligning with GFR 2017 financial prudence standards for high-value professional service contracts.
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 Sambalpur. Billing will be milestone-based, linked to successful candidate shortlisting, interview facilitation, and final appointment. A Defect Liability Period of six months post-appointment ensures the candidate's retention and suitability. An Integrity Pact is mandatory for this high-value procurement to ensure transparency, prevent corruption, and maintain ethical standards throughout the recruitment lifecycle. All financial transactions and service deliverables must strictly adhere to the General Financial Rules 2017 and the specific terms outlined in the formal agreement signed between IIM Sambalpur and the selected agency.
