The main objective of the contract is to improve immovable property rights information through the digitisation of all available textual information of immovable property records, i.e. ‘kartela’s. The project will first design the methodology, approach and work plan for the kartela digitisation, as well as asses the quality of the existing kartela database and provide a kartela digitisation and indexing application. In a second phase, the project will scan and digitise the paper-based documents throughout the country, from all State Cadastre Offices. This entails also the verification and upgrade of already digistised kartelas and the migration of the newly digitised and validated data into a central database.
This means that the service contract the candidate refers to could have been started or completed at any time during the indicated period but it does not necessarily have to be started and completed during that period, nor implemented during the entire period. Candidates are allowed to refer either to service contracts completed within the reference period (although started earlier) or to service contracts not yet completed. In the first case the service contract will be considered in its whole if proper evidence of performance is provided (statement or certificate from the entity which awarded the contract, proof of final payment). In case of service contracts still on-going only the portion satisfactorily completed during the reference period although started earlier will be taken into consideration. This portion will have to be supported by documentary evidence (similarly to service contracts completed) also detailing its value.

Only the portion satisfactorily completed during the reference period will be taken into consideration. This portion will have to be supported by documentary evidence (statement or certificate from the entity which awarded the contract, proof of payment) also detailing its value. If a candidate has implemented the project in a consortium, the percentage that the candidate has successfully completed must be clear from the documentary evidence, together with a description of the nature of the services provided if the selection criteria relating to the pertinence of the experience have been used.
