15 classified tenders, 3 single-source, 20.0% — a buyer profile for Karabakh University Clinic

AZTender's 90-day buyer profile shows 3 of 15 classified tenders (20.0%) at Karabakh University Clinic tagged "Bir mənbə" (single-source) — the most robust sample among buyers with at least five classified tenders in the window.

In AZTender's 90-day buyer profile, data cut dated 12 October 2026, Karabakh University Clinic ("Qarabağ Universitetinin Klinikası" Publik Hüquqi Şəxsi) recorded 15 classified tenders, of which 3 carry the registry's procedure-type tag "Bir mənbə" (single-source) — a 20.0% share. Among buyers with at least five classified tenders in the window, this is the most robust sample.

The numbers

Item Value
Buyer Karabakh University Clinic
Window Last 90 days (data cut 12 October 2026)
Classified tenders 15
Tagged "Bir mənbə" (single-source) 3
Single-source share 20.0%
Minimum sample threshold applied ≥5 classified tenders per buyer

What the number is not

"Bir mənbə" is the registry's own procedure-type tag, applied under defined circumstances in Azerbaijan's procurement rules — it is not a finding that any of these three tenders was improperly sole-sourced. The 20.0% share is calculated against classified tenders only; roughly 40% of the wider 90-day corpus carries no procedure-type tag at all, so this is not a share of the Clinic's full procurement activity in the window. It is also not a competition measure: bidder counts are not available in Azerbaijan's open tender data, so nothing here speaks to how many suppliers, if any, competed for the other 12 tenders.

Why it is a signal

  • What circumstances under Azerbaijan's Public Procurement Law were cited for each of the three single-source designations?
  • Does the 20.0% share hold if the window is widened beyond 90 days, or is it specific to this period?
  • What did the three single-source tenders cover, and were any preceded by a competitive tender that drew no bids?
  • How does a 20.0% share at a hospital-linked buyer compare with other healthcare-sector buyers once they reach a similar sample size?

What AZTender shows

AZTender's buyer profile module builds this procedure-type breakdown for any procuring entity, tracking how the mix of open tenders, restricted procedures and single-source awards moves over a rolling window and flagging when a sample is large enough to read with confidence. A bidder tracking the healthcare-procurement sector, or an auditor shortlisting buyers for closer review, can pull the same profile instead of 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 15 tenders, and no conclusion about wrongdoing, affiliation or avoidance of competition is drawn from this share.
