e-Procurement Bidding Roadmap & Portal Workflow

1

Register the procuring entity on the GeM portal or CPPP, ensuring digital signature certificates are active for all authorized signatories to facilitate secure electronic document submission and authentication.

2

Conduct a mandatory pre-bid clarification meeting to address technical queries from prospective bidders, ensuring transparency and providing formal corrigendum updates to all participants via the online portal.

3

Invite a two-cover system bid where technical proposals, including credentials and methodology, are evaluated separately before the financial bids are accessed to ensure unbiased technical assessment of candidates.

4

Perform a commercial BoQ financial opening for technically qualified bidders only, ensuring the L1 bidder is identified based on the lowest evaluated price while adhering to GFR financial norms.

5

Issue the formal Letter of Award (LoA) to the successful bidder, stipulating the acceptance of terms, submission of PBG, and signing of the formal contract agreement within the specified timeframe.

Technical Qualification Matrix & Due Diligence Standards

Bidders participating in Iimtrichy Director Recruitment must satisfy the multi-tiered technical, financial, and statutory qualifying covenants detailed below:

Evaluation BenchmarkMandated 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 three similar executive search or recruitment projects for premier educational institutions or central government bodies in the last five years.
Statutory Benchmark Mandatory submission of valid GSTIN, PAN, EPF, and ESI registrations, along with a valid Labor License, ensuring full compliance with all statutory requirements under Indian labor and tax laws.
Statutory Benchmark MSME and Startups are eligible for relaxation in prior experience and turnover criteria under Rule 170 of GFR 2017, provided they submit valid Udyam registration certificates during the bid submission.

Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees

The procurement for the IIM Trichy Director recruitment services requires a robust financial framework aligned with GFR 2017. Given the high-stakes nature of executive search, the contract valuation must be determined via a detailed cost estimate. 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 5% of the contract value is required from the successful bidder to ensure performance security throughout the engagement. 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, subject to a maximum of 10% of the total contract value. These parameters ensure financial accountability, mitigate risks of non-performance, and maintain fiscal discipline in accordance with public procurement guidelines for autonomous institutions.

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 Trichy. Payments will be structured against specific milestones, such as candidate shortlisting and final appointment. A Defect Liability Period (DLP) will apply to the recruitment process, ensuring the agency provides replacements if a selected candidate resigns within a stipulated timeframe. Furthermore, an Integrity Pact is mandatory for high-value contracts to ensure transparency, prevent corruption, and maintain ethical standards throughout the procurement lifecycle, ensuring all parties adhere to the highest levels of professional conduct and institutional integrity.
