GECOM seeking to build five-storey complex

The embattled Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM) is to build a five-storey multipurpose complex at Lot 41 High and Cowan streets.

In an advertisement in today’s Stabroek News, GECOM says it intends to prequalify consulting firms to design and provide a cost for the construction.

The ad says that qualification requirements include the experience of the firms and CV’s of key personnel.

Applicants must submit their expressions of interest no later than 1 pm on Tuesday, December 29th     2020.

In the aftermath of the five-month elections crisis, GECOM faces major questions about the role of some of its key personnel in attempting to rig the March 2nd general elections. It also has to grapple with key issues such as the holding of local government elections next year and  whether to compile a new national register of registrants.
