Online Government Procurements

Government Resolution No. 1917-N, 29 Dec. 2011

Armenian Government passed a resolution on electronic government procurement. The procurement system will allow registered suppliers to electronically receive notifications, place bids and sign contracts. The resolution requires all executive agencies to place orders through the electronic procurement system starting from January 1, 2012. Suppliers are invited to register at the official website of the procurement system, www. armeps.am. However, several documents still need to be filed in paper to complete the registration. In 2010 government procurements amounted to 450 billion drams.
