11 procedures, 6 single-source, 54.5% — a buyer profile for the Xankəndi-Ağdərə-Xocalı recovery agency

AZTender's 90-day buyer profile shows 6 of 11 procurement records (54.5%) at the Xankəndi/Ağdərə/Xocalı recovery agency tagged "Bir mənbə" (single-source); top supplier "RN STRONG" MMC took 551,022.24 AZN across two awards.

In AZTender's 90-day buyer profile, data cut dated 20 September 2026, the Reconstruction, Construction and Management Service for Xankəndi City and the Ağdərə and Xocalı Districts ("Xankəndi şəhərində, Ağdərə və Xocalı rayonlarında Bərpa, Tikinti və İdarəetmə Xidməti" Publik Hüquqi Şəxsi) recorded 11 procurement records, of which 6 carry the registry's procedure-type tag "Bir mənbə" (single-source) — 54.5% of the total. The top supplier, once duplicate cache rows are removed, is "RN STRONG" MMC, with two awards combining to 551,022.24 AZN.

The numbers

Item Value
Buyer Reconstruction, Construction and Management Service for Xankəndi City and the Ağdərə and Xocalı Districts
Window 90 days (data cut 20 September 2026)
Procurement records 11
Tagged "Bir mənbə" (single-source) 6 (54.5%)
Top supplier, deduplicated "RN STRONG" MMC — 132,202.48 + 418,819.76 = 551,022.24 AZN
Same-day double award "Reflect Architects" MMC — 26,526.40 + 295,000.00 AZN, both single-source, 6 July 2026

What the number is not

The 54.5% share is calculated against all 11 procurement records in the window, not against classified rows only: four of the eleven carry no procedure-type tag and count as non-single-source here. "Bir mənbə" is the registry's own label, not a finding of impropriety — a reconstruction agency routinely uses defined legal grounds for it. "RN STRONG" MMC's two rows have already been deduplicated for the result/contract row-pairing documented in this data cut, and no affiliation between the agency and either supplier is claimed.

Why it is a signal

  • What circumstances under Azerbaijan's Public Procurement Law were cited for each of the six single-source designations?
  • Does the relationship with "RN STRONG" MMC reflect one continuous scope of work, or two separate needs?
  • Why did "Reflect Architects" MMC receive two single-source awards on the same day, 6 July 2026?
  • Would the 54.5% share change once the four untagged procedures receive a classification?
  • How does this share compare with other post-war reconstruction agencies already profiled?

The same data cut flagged one live tender, published 19 September 2026: the Innovation and Supply Center ("İnnovasiya və Təchizat Mərkəzi" Publik Hüquqi Şəxsi) seeks reconstructive and reinforcement works on the maternity hospital ("Doğum Evi") under the Clinical Medical Center ("Kliniki Tibbi Mərkəz" Publik Hüquqi Şəxsi) in Baku's Səbail district, estimated at 1,981,914.46 AZN, deadline 19 October 2026.

What AZTender shows

AZTender's buyer profile module builds this procedure-type breakdown for any procuring entity and tracks single-source share and repeat-supplier patterns over time, while tender matching surfaces open notices such as the maternity-hospital works as soon as published. A bidder scanning reconstruction-sector buyers, or an auditor screening for concentration, can pull the same profile at aztender.ai.

A signal is not a verdict. Single-source is a legitimate procedure category, not a legal characterisation of any of these records, and no conclusion about wrongdoing, affiliation or avoidance of competition is drawn from this share.
