MORE DETAILS
Sources from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, whose names we prefer not to mention, reported that the Foreign Ministry is the body in charge of all international negotiations on behalf of the country. Diplomatic services and jobs require a lot of air travel.
The amount of the call is G. 10 billion, the same as the previous calls. With the exception that it is an open contract that is for the simultaneous supply system. That is, the G. 10 billion are divided into three fiscal years; 2022, 2023 and 2024.
The previous contracts were made for only two years and now they are made for six more months. This contract will be for two and a half years.
THREE OFFERS
To date, three companies have applied for the call. Now, the Evaluation Committee must evaluate the documentation and the committee will decide whether to award one company or more for this call.
These air tickets will be used by all the representatives of the institution. They will be destined for the international rotations that occur either for the consulates, for the embassies and also for what is related to the chancellor himself. That is, for the management of him as a representative of the country. They are the ones who demand air tickets. And officials who are sent on an official mission.
NEW CONTRACT
The current contract expires on December 31, because the previous period has been extended due to the pandemic, where there was no demand and availability was in the budget. The last contract runs until the end of this year. As the restrictions were lifted, a greater volume and a higher percentage began to be given, and for this reason, in order to safeguard the need for the portfolio, the new process was launched.
Finally, they reported that the availability of the current contract is already reaching almost the total amount of the execution, so they will need a new agreement with companies.
