UNDERSTAND YOUR REQUIREMENTS

A complete seller profile is the starting point—not an order guarantee.

GeM connects eligible sellers and service providers with government procurement opportunities. A consistent business record and appropriate product or service information are important before participating. We help organise profile-readiness and the agreed application support, while keeping catalogue work, tender participation and contract performance as distinct stages.

PLAN THE RIGHT SUPPORT

Start with the work your business needs.

Seller-profile preparation

Review the constitution, authorised user and business particulars.

Product or service readiness

Identify the category information and supporting records needed for the intended offerings.

Existing-profile review

Check available records and identify details requiring attention.

Next-stage scope planning

Separate profile support from catalogue, bid and order-related work.

A clearer path from planning to paperwork.

Consistent business particulars

Check information against the underlying entity records.

Clear authorisation

Identify the user permitted to act for the business.

Focused offering information

Organise the intended products or services.

Defined service scope

Know which profile and follow-up work is included.

Check the proposed setup before you begin.

The correct route depends on the people, activity and location involved.

Eligible business and user

Review the entity and the authorised person under the portal requirements.

Verifiable particulars

Prepare identity and business details that can be validated.

Offering-specific requirements

Check the category, product or service conditions separately.

The final requirements depend on the applicable jurisdiction, current rules and the details of your case.

Who this service is designed for.

Choose the structure around your ownership and operating plans.

Questions about gem registration.

Clarify the scope before choosing the next step.
Does registration guarantee government orders?

No. Buyers assess opportunities under the applicable procurement and bid requirements.

Can service providers use GeM?

GeM supports eligible sellers and service providers. The intended service category needs separate review.

Is a completed profile enough for every tender?

No. Each bid can specify its own eligibility and supporting-document requirements.

Does this service include bidding and order management?

Those are separate scopes unless expressly included in the agreed work.

Should I share my login password or OTP?

Keep authentication under your control. Authorised-user actions and declarations should be completed by the appropriate person.
