- Closed tenders - are limited, based on the invitation to certain suppliers and only these companies are allowed to participate in the tender. The invitation is based on the previous experience, track record and work capability. The vendors need to bid in the tender by submitting their technical, financial and other required details and the tender is awarded based on the evaluation process.

The vendor needs to submit the quotations and after the negotiation, the bid is awarded.

In Single stage tenders, there is a single level of evaluation which happens for selecting the vendor. The vendors need to submit the details of the product/services to be supplied along with the pricing details at the same time. There is no scope of revising the same after submission. Once the valuation process is done, the tender is awarded to the selected vendor based on the details.br
In two-staged tenders, the buyer first selects the vendors based on the outline scope of work and after this, the detailed scope of work is shared with the shortlisted vendors. At this stage, the vendors need to submit the technical, financial, experience and other required details. The tender is awarded after detailed evaluation by the buyer and it can even have multiple vendors selected for the various parts of the project.

Sellers can participate in the GeM bidding process by first registering on the GeM portal and completing the required documentation successfully. Once registered, sellers must create a catalog and list their products and services as per the tender requirements. To proceed with bidding, sellers should prepare the necessary documents as per the tender checklist and submit them. Finally, they must fill in the financial bid accurately and submit it through the portal. Ensuring compliance with the tender requirements and maintaining accurate documentation are key to successfully participating in the GeM bidding process.
For tender bidding, sellers must submit all required documents according to the eligibility criteria and specified formats. Once submitted, the tender undergoes two key stages: technical bid evaluation and financial bid evaluation
Technical Bid Evaluation is the initial stage, where the bidder’s experience, qualifications, and compliance with the tender’s technical requirements are assessed. This ensures that only qualified bidders proceed to the next stage.
Financial Bid Evaluation follows the technical evaluation. Here, the financial proposals of technically qualified bidders are compared based on bid price, payment terms, pricing structure, and contractual terms. The bidder offering the most cost-effective and compliant solution typically wins.
Both evaluations ensure transparency and fairness in the tender bidding process, selecting the best-suited bidder for the contract.
In the GeM portal, registered sellers have already selected the category of products.
When the buyer publishes the tender and selects the category, he/she has an option to select three categories closest to the BOQ items/products to be procured. Any buyer who falls under these selected categories would receive the notification for the Tenders published.
