  • 40% of Tenders Announced to Render Services Didn't Take Place H1/04

    40% OF TENDERS ANNOUNCED FOR RENDERING SERVICES DIDN'T TAKE PLACE IN
    FIRST HALF-YEAR

    YEREVAN, August 4 (Noyan Tapan). In 7 months of 2004 purchases
    amounting to more than 20b drams (about $38.5m) were made for RA state
    government bodies, which exceeded the index of purchases made in 2003
    by about 4b drams. Gagik Khachatrian, the Head of the Agency of State
    Purchases, said at the August 4 press conference that the growth of
    the volumes of purchases is conditioned by allocation of savings of
    2003 state budget amounting to 12b drams for the sphere of
    construction. The realization of 8.5b drams from this sum will be
    organized by means of the Agency of State Purchases. It was mentioned
    that already 5.6b drams were realized through the tenders organized
    only in July. According to G.Khachatrian, the market of services
    hasn't been formed in Armenia yet. In connection with this it was
    mentioned that 40% of the tenders announced for rendering of services
    didn't take place in 6 month of this year. The head of the Agency also
    mentioned that the growth of exchange rate of dram in relation to the
    US dollar gave an opportunity of saving 30m drams from the resources
    of RA Ministry of Health. G.Khachatrian reported that a new system of
    setting up of tender prices is being prepared at present. According to
    this, in particular, it's envisaged to set up season prices for
    food-stuffs and a number of goods, proceeding from which the changes
    of market prices will ba taken into consideration in the term
    contracts. The variations of market prices will be periodically
    studied for this purpose and the contractual prices will be
    resonsidered on the basis of them.
