Description : The Ministry is responsible for renting, administering, furnishing and furnishing office premises and the representation part of official residences at the foreign stations.

A framework agreement will be signed with one tenderer. The framework agreement period is 2 years from contract signing.

The contracting authority will not be bound to procure a specific volume during the framework agreement period.
