GeM vs. eProcurement: Which Works Best for Small Businesses?

Tender Grid31 Dec, 2025Technology

For small businesses trying to break into government contracting, the first challenge is rarely about capability it’s about choosing the right tendering platform. There are several government procurement portals in India, and two that stand out as leaders in these platforms are GeM and EProcurement Systems. Both do not differ much when it comes to their benefits of reaching government buyers, a fair and transparent bidding process, and an opportunity to compete for the contract equally. The major difference lies in how these two processes function and have an impact on MSMEs and budding suppliers.
