3.24 million manats, one award, an exact match to the estimate — ASAN xidmət's ICT tender

AZTender's data cut of 19 October 2026 shows a single 3,239,808.00 AZN ICT-infrastructure award by Azerbaijan's ASAN xidmət agency to İTECH GROUP LLC, with the estimated value and the award price recorded as an exact match.

AZTender's data cut of 19 October 2026 shows a single award of 3,239,808.00 AZN (≈3.24 million manats) from the State Agency for Public Service and Social Innovations under the President of the Republic of Azerbaijan (Azərbaycan Respublikasının Prezidenti yanında Vətəndaşlara Xidmət və Sosial İnnovasiyalar üzrə Dövlət Agentliyi, known as ASAN xidmət) to İTECH GROUP LLC ("İTECH GROUP" Məhdud Məsuliyyətli Cəmiyyəti), covering network equipment to renew ICT infrastructure at several ASAN xidmət service centres. The registry's estimated value and the recorded award price are an exact match.

The numbers

Estimated value vs award price exact match

What the number is not

This is an announced award-record figure from the registry, not a signed contract or a confirmed payment; the data does not show whether the equipment was delivered or the supplier paid. The estimated value equalling the award price is a structural feature of archived records on this registry, not a zero-discount signal: the same exact match was verified live across thirty other awarded Azerbaijani announcements from the past thirty days, where the estimate field is overwritten with the award amount once a record is archived. The procedure-type tag on this record is blank, so it cannot be read as single-source or open-tender. Azerbaijan's open data carries no bidder-count field, so nothing here speaks to competition. Timestamps on this record run roughly four hours ahead of true Baku time, so any time-of-day detail is approximate.

Why it is a signal

  • Did İTECH GROUP LLC compete against other bidders for this requirement, and under which procedure?
  • Which ASAN xidmət service centres receive the network equipment, and does the scope match the awarded cost?
  • Does this award record convert into a signed, executed contract on the same terms and value?
  • Have ASAN xidmət or İTECH GROUP LLC appeared together, or separately, in other procurement records?

What AZTender shows

AZTender's entity-report module lets a bidder or auditor pull a buyer's or a supplier's full award history in one view — the same view used to confirm that the estimate-equals-award-price pattern on this record holds across thirty other recent Azerbaijani awards, not just this one. The procurer-control module flags a blank procedure-type tag next to a record instead of assuming a label for it. A bidder tracking ICT-infrastructure tenders from public-interest agencies, or an auditor screening records for structural patterns, can check that history at aztender.ai.

A signal is not a verdict. A single award matching its own estimate, or a blank procedure-type tag, can have an entirely ordinary explanation, and no conclusion about wrongdoing, affiliation or overpricing is drawn here.
