Financial Safeguards, EMD & Performance Security Guarantees
The procurement dossier for the Iirs Advisor Recruitment contract establishes a rigorous financial architecture aligned with GFR 2017 and GeM guidelines. The contract valuation reflects expert advisory services, supported by a mandatory Earnest Money Deposit (EMD) pegged at 2 percent of the estimated cost to deter frivolous bids. Upon successful award, the selected consultant must furnish a Performance Bank Guarantee (PBG) ranging between 3 to 5 percent of the total contract value, valid until the completion of the defect liability and advisory term. Tender document fees are waived as per digital governance mandates on GeM. Furthermore, strict financial discipline is enforced via a Liquidated Damages (LD) clause, levying 0.5 percent of the undelivered value per week of delay, capped at a maximum of 10 percent of the total contract price.
General Conditions of Contract (GCC) & Integrity Compliance
Contract compliance is anchored in the General Conditions of Contract (GCC). Milestone-based billing is tied to tangible advisory deliverables and strategic reports. The Defect Liability Period (DLP) extends for 12 months post-advisory completion to rectify analytical discrepancies. An Integrity Pact is mandatory for high-value tenders to ensure transparency and prevent corrupt practices. All disputes arising out of or in connection with the contract shall be resolved amicably through conciliation, failing which they shall be referred to sole arbitration under the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, with the venue at the Procuring Entity headquarters and proceedings conducted in English.
