Details of government bids for goods and services can now be obtained on a new Blackberry application developed by digital agency Panmedia.
The app, Tenders Jamaica, can be downloaded at BlackBerry App World and offers the latest and most accurate tenders and procurement information, Panmedia said in a statement today.
It said users get easy access to tender information from both public and private entities, and was an invaluable source of information for business opportunities and market intelligence.
Panmedia said the app pulled its content from Tenders Jamaica, a Panmedia Network website updated weekly with available contracts. The app displays only critical information in a concise format and users can submit their own tenders, which will be included in the listing after verification, the company said.
The Tenders Jamaica app is compatible with all BlackBerry devices with OS5 and above, and uses a small install footprint and minimal network resources.
In addition to Blackberry App World, the app is also downloadable from Panmedia’s website, www.panmedia.com.jm and from http://www.tendersjamaica.com.jm
“This app provides potential suppliers with all the necessary tender information to find, bid and win the best contracts,” the statement quoted Panmedia’s lead developer Vivian Gordon as saying.
Panmedia’s chief executive officer Knolly Moses said “it gives a competitive edge to those with the app on their phone.” He added: “It is a practical solution for busy executives who use new communications technology to advance their business.”
Panmedia develops mobile applications across all platforms, using JAVA and WebWorks development for Blackberry applications. The digital agency has developed apps for weather updates, business and art events and for converting foreign currency.
