The Government of Georgia plans to purchase consulting services for the preparation of a new tender for the Anaklia port project. The Anaklia Port Development Agency has already published information about simplified procurement on the website of the State Procurement Agency.
The cost of purchasing consultations is 1 million GEL.
In particular, the cooperation talks are with the legal firm White & Case, the Rotterdam consulting center and the company MTBS. Anaklia Development Agency cooperated with the mentioned companies in previous years.
"It is advisable to continue cooperation with consultants of similar international experience, which saves the agency additional unreasonable financial resources and time, and it is also possible to sign contracts with new highly qualified/reputable international financial and/or consulting and/or legal companies, which It is one of the main prerequisites for the successful implementation of the project", the document reads.
In addition, the document mentions that "the consulting group should implement the measures stipulated by the legislation for the development of Anaklia deep-water port as soon as possible".
The Government of Georgia terminated the contract with the Anaklia Development Consortium in January 2022. On July 30, it became known that the Anaklia Development Consortium and the main foreign investor will file lawsuits against Georgia in international arbitration.
