Bid evaluators to get more $$

Berkeley Wickham

With over 80 persons from both the public and private sectors responding to the National Procurement and Tender Administration’s (NPTA) call for additional evaluators of government contracts, the agency yesterday announced that payment will be upped from $3000 per contract.

“ It was a nominal fee we had there for some time…I have spoken to the Minister (of Finance) about it and we are actively dealing with that…it will be raised I am certain about that,” NPTAB’s Chairman Berkeley Wickham said yesterday.

The agency yesterday held an orientation session for potential evaluators at the Guyana Police Force Training Centre.
