MUSCAT: The Public Establishment for Industrial Estates (Madayn) on Thursday launched a platform code-named “Rabt” (connectivity) to enhance its partnership with the Secretariat-General of the Tender Board.

The ceremony was held under the auspices of Eng Salim bin Nasser al Aufi, Minister of Energy and Minerals.

The platform aims to enhance integration between government departments and the private sector by maximising the outcome of localised industries and link them to government tenders and procurements. It also contributes to upgrading the competitiveness of local products and services in local markets.

The platform showcases more than 5,000 industrial products and services provided by more than 300 factories and companies operating in Madayn's industrial cities. It provides a comprehensive database that supports government procurement.

The ceremony also saw the signing of outsourcing agreements between contractors who win local tenders and local suppliers — a step forward in enhancing the national economy. — ONA
