The Undersecretary of the Ministry of Public Works Eng Walid Al-Ghanim has issued three decisions to form committees to study bids for 3 tenders for improvised infrastructure works in Surra, Qartuba and Yarmouk.
According to Al-Qabas, each committee consists of 9 specialists each of them to evaluate the “offers” and submit an integrated financial study complete with its own recommendation within two weeks of the formation of the committee.
The three tenders are part of the 11th phase of the country’s infrastructure development plan, which includes replacing the sewage and rain networks and many other services in each region with the aim of raising their efficiency and improving their performance.
The three tenders were supposed to be included in the budget for the current fiscal 2021-2022 to end in the fiscal 2023-2024, but the offering procedures were delayed due to the exceptional circumstances in light of the Corona pandemic and the lack of liquidity during the last period.
Al-Qabas sources revealed that the total estimated budget for the three tenders, according to the ministry’s previous plan, was about 60 million dinars, 15 million dinars for the renewal of infrastructure in the Yarmouk region, 20 million dinars for the Qartuba region, and 25 million dinars for the Surra region, each of which is distributed over 3 years — the period of execution of each tender after its award.
