25 procedures, 11 single-source, 44.0% — a buyer profile for Azerbaijan's National Cinema Agency
AZTender's 90-day buyer profile shows 11 of 25 classified procedures (44.0%) at Azerbaijan's National Cinema Agency tagged "Bir mənbə" (single-source); the largest award, 3,500,000.00 AZN, carries the same tag.
In AZTender's 90-day buyer profile, data cut dated 17 September 2026, the Azerbaijan National Cinema Agency (Azərbaycan Respublikasının Kino Agentliyi Publik Hüquqi Şəxsi) recorded 25 classified procedures, of which 11 carry the registry's procedure-type tag "Bir mənbə" (single-source) — 44.0% of the classified total. The largest award in the same window, 3,500,000.00 AZN (≈3.5 million manats), went to Rakurs Film-Media LLC ("Rakurs Film-Media" MMC), also tagged single-source.
The numbers
| Item | Value |
|---|---|
| Buyer | Azerbaijan National Cinema Agency (Azərbaycan Respublikasının Kino Agentliyi Publik Hüquqi Şəxsi) |
| Window | Last 90 days (data cut 17 September 2026) |
| Classified procedures | 25 |
| Tagged "Bir mənbə" (single-source) | 11 |
| Single-source share | 44.0% |
| Largest award, by supplier | Rakurs Film-Media LLC — 3,500,000.00 AZN (1 award, single-source) |
What the number is not
Single-source is a legitimate procedure type under Azerbaijan's procurement rules for defined circumstances; the tag itself is not a finding of anything irregular. The 44.0% share applies to classified rows only — the pack does not state what fraction of the agency's full 90-day row count carries no procedure-type tag at all, so this is not a share of all its procurement activity. The 3,500,000.00 AZN award to Rakurs Film-Media LLC is one line item, not the agency's total spend in the window; a second repeat supplier, ERRA SUPPLY LLC ("ERRA SUPPLY" Məhdud Məsuliyyətli Cəmiyyəti), appears with 2 awards totalling 462,480.70 AZN under mixed and blank tags, and that sum should not be folded into the single-source total.
Why it is a signal
- What circumstances under Azerbaijan's Public Procurement Law were cited for each of the 11 single-source designations?
- Why did the window's largest award, 3,500,000.00 AZN, go to one supplier under a single-source procedure rather than a competitive tender?
- Does the 44.0% share hold over a longer window, or is it specific to these 90 days?
- How does the agency's share compare with other cultural-sector buyers, and with the two buyers already profiled at higher shares?
What AZTender shows
AZTender's buyer profile module builds this kind of procedure-type breakdown for any procuring entity, tracking how the mix of open tenders, restricted procedures and single-source awards shifts over time and flagging repeat suppliers within it. A bidder assessing where to compete, or an auditor screening buyers for a closer look, can pull the same profile rather than rebuilding it from raw registry exports. More detail is available at aztender.ai.
A signal is not a verdict. Single-source is a legitimate procedure category, not a legal characterisation of these 25 procedures, and no conclusion about wrongdoing, affiliation or avoidance of competition is drawn from this share.
