What is GeM?
GeM stands for Government e-Marketplace. It is an online platform launched by the Indian Government in 2016 to facilitate procurement of goods and services by various government departments, organizations, and public sector undertakings (PSUs). The platform aims at promoting transparency, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness in the procurement process by enabling direct purchase from manufacturers or authorized dealers.
GeM provides a common online marketplace where both Central Government and State Governments and their agencies can buy goods and services in a transparent and efficient manner. It also ensures that all vendors get a fair chance to participate in the procurement process through a transparent bidding system. The platform offers a wide range of products and services, including office supplies, electronics, furniture, automobiles, insurance, legal services, and more.
