The Ministry of Works and Housing has received five bids for the completion of over 1500 unfinished units in the Saglemi Housing project.

These bids are currently pending evaluation by an independent entity selected through assistance from the Public Procurement Authority, as announced by sector minister Kojo Oppong Nkrumah.

The minister stated that the evaluation entity will be chosen on Wednesday to assess the bids, ensuring a transparent process in securing a partner for the project.

Following the submission of bids, Mr. Oppong Nkrumah informed the media that an accounting firm will present the evaluation report within seven days.

Subsequently, the preferred bidder will be selected to finalize the Saglemi Housing project.

“We have received five bids. From today, we have already requested the Public Procurement Authority to help us select an independent evaluation entity. And I do understand that about four organisations have been pre-qualified by the Public Procurement Authority, out of which we will select one.

“On Wednesday, as I mentioned, we will select the independent evaluation entity and we will handle these bids to the independent evaluation entity. And according to our work programme, within seven days we are expecting to receive the revert from the independent evaluation entity, which will tell us which of these five bidders is a preferred bidder.”
