Exactly 150 million dinars was the estimated value of the procurement announced in mid-April by the Secretariat for General Affairs at city of Belgrade.
Two offers arrived - the first one was submitted by the Atlas security company, whose offer was 243 million dinars, far more than the estimated value, writes Dunja Marić for The new economy.
On the other hand, 150 million was the offer of the consortium of companies T&M group solutions, Sparta Security and TE group. It was these companies that got the job.
The framework agreement was signed for six months.
Work for the same companies
The last time the agreement on the security of the premises of the City Administration was signed on October 15 last year. Then the job was awarded to a consortium consisting of three companies - namely T&M group solutions, Sparta Security and Atlas security. The value of the contracted work was, as now, 150 million dinars without VAT.
The same companies received this job from the City at the beginning of 2024, and were in a consortium with companies that provided city facilities in 2023 and 2022.
