e-Procurement Bidding Roadmap & Portal Workflow

The bidder must ensure valid registration on the GeM portal or CPPP with a Class-III Digital Signature Certificate to participate in the IIRS Authority tender process for recruitment support services.

A pre-bid clarification meeting will be conducted to address technical queries, scope ambiguities, and eligibility criteria, with all amendments issued as corrigenda to ensure transparency for all prospective bidders.

Bidders must submit a two-cover system: the first cover containing technical credentials, experience certificates, and statutory compliance documents, and the second cover containing the financial BoQ for price evaluation.

Upon successful technical qualification, the financial bids (BoQ) of responsive bidders will be opened on the portal, followed by a comparative statement generation to identify the lowest evaluated responsive bidder.

The IIRS Authority will issue a formal Letter of Award (LoA) to the successful bidder, triggering the commencement of the contract period and the submission of the required Performance Bank Guarantee.

Technical Qualification Matrix & Due Diligence Standards

Bidders participating in List of the Shortlisted Candidates the Interview I 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 have successfully executed at least one similar project involving candidate screening or recruitment support for a government entity or PSU 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 Contract Labour (Regulation and Abolition) Act, 1970.
Statutory Benchmark	MSMEs and Startups are eligible for relaxation in prior experience and turnover criteria under Rule 170 of GFR 2017, subject to submission of valid Udyam Registration or DPIIT recognition certificates.

Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees

The contract valuation for the recruitment support services at IIRS Authority must be determined based on the estimated volume of candidate processing. In accordance with GFR 2017, an Earnest Money Deposit (EMD) of 2% of the estimated value is mandatory to ensure bid seriousness, though MSMEs may be exempted under Rule 170. Upon selection, the successful bidder must furnish a Performance Bank Guarantee (PBG) ranging from 3% to 5% of the contract value, valid until 60 days beyond the completion of all contractual obligations. Tender document fees are generally waived on GeM, but if offline, they remain non-refundable. The contract shall incorporate a stringent Liquidated Damages (LD) clause, stipulating a deduction of 0.5% of the contract price per week of delay, capped at a maximum of 10% of the total contract value, ensuring timely delivery of the shortlisted candidate list.

General Conditions of Contract (GCC) & Integrity Compliance

The contract shall be governed by the General Financial Rules (GFR) 2017. Any disputes arising shall be settled through arbitration under the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, with the venue in the jurisdiction of the IIRS Authority. Payments will be processed based on milestone billing linked to the delivery of the shortlisted candidate list. A Defect Liability Period (DLP) will apply to ensure the accuracy of data provided. Furthermore, an Integrity Pact may be mandated for high-value contracts to ensure transparency, ethical conduct, and the prevention of corrupt practices throughout the procurement lifecycle.
