Procurement of goods - Commission of Technical and Vocational Education of Tigray

Thursday, March 31st, 2005

Correction to Invitation to Bid

In the announcement of invitation to bid, the Commission of Technical and Vocational Education of Tigray has made a mistake in the invitation to bid dated Friday 18 March 2005, Vol. LXI-No. 162 of The Ethiopian Herald.

The invitation for bid says”?invites all interested eligible bidders for the provision of procurement services for goods to different colleges”.  However, it should not be for the provision of procurement services for goods, but no procure goods directly from suppliers.

Therefore, the provision of procurement services should read as procurement of goods.
