Volume Purchase Agreement for the World-Wide Provision of IT Equipment Under the WIPO Technical Assistance and Cooperation Activities

 

 

          The World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) is an intergovernmental organization with its headquarters in Geneva. It is one of the 16 United Nations specialized agencies and is responsible for promoting the protection of intellectual property throughout the world, including the administration of the Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT), and also the international registration of marks.

 

WIPO is about to issue an Invitation To Bid in order to select a supplier for the provision of Information Technology (IT) equipment (servers, desktops computers, scanners, laptops, network printers, software and peripherals) within its Cooperation for Development activities via a five years Volume Purchase Agreement (VPA).
