ICT Tenders: Down time

Last week's edition of the National Tender Bulletin reflected the impact of a series of short working weeks and the popularity of the Easter weekend getaway.

Nevertheless, the ICT sector performs relatively well in the scaled back issue. New opportunities are evenly spread across the hardware, software and services sectors. That said, the requested requirements are fairly mundane, with little to excite the marketplace.

No tender awards are featured this week.
