He said there were 11 projects to be awarded for capital projects this year.
Gbemudu said: “The lowest bid for each of the project may not necessarily be the most responsive. Our evaluation will determine the lowest responsive bids upon which we will award the contract based on the availability of fund.”
He added that the contract would be awarded as soon as the funds are coming into the college’s purse to avoid owing contractors.
Gbemudu said the contracts were parts of the AFCSC Commandant’s resolve to reposition the college and make it conducive for learning.
Other contract bided for are renovation of Works Production Centre, renovation of AFCSC Headquarters, furnishing and equipping of Syndicate Rooms, furnishing of AFCSC Headquarters, renovation of Senior Course Hostel, renovation and furnishing of Captain Quarters, computerisation, networking and Broadband Internet Access and renovation and upgrading of Sports Centre Facilities.
