GeM (Government e-Marketplace)

- Create, upload, and maintain catalogues, product listings, pricing, and specifications, including new product/service category requests.
- Participate in all GeM procurement modes: open bids, custom/bunch bids, service bids, reverse auctions (RA), direct purchase, and rate contracts.

- Manage EMD/bid security, ePBG/performance security, MSME/Startup exemptions, and Make in India (MII) purchase preference claims.
- Manage post-award activities: contract acceptance, delivery, CRAC (consignee receipt and acceptance certificate), invoicing, payment tracking, and disputes or penalties.
Tendering on Other Platforms
- Identify, track, and bid on tenders across CPPP (eProcure), state e-procurement portals, GePNIC, IREPS, PSU and university portals, and private/corporate platforms (e.g., SAP Ariba).
- Use tender alert services (e.g., Tender247, BidAssist, TenderTiger) for lead generation and opportunity tracking.
- Handle all bid types: open tenders, limited tenders, single-stage and two-envelope (technical/financial) bids, EOIs, RFQs, RFPs, and empanelment/rate-contract tenders.

- Prepare technical bids, BOQs/BOMs, pricing sheets, undertakings, affidavits, and declarations.
- Coordinate with the Pre-Sales, Finance, Legal, Product, and Operations teams on specifications, pricing, and commercial terms.

- Attend pre-bid meetings and submit queries or corrigendum responses on time.
- Perform final quality checks before submission to prevent disqualification on technical grounds.

- Assess vendors on technical capability, quality, pricing, delivery timelines, financial stability, compliance, and past performance.
