Société Nationale Des Autoroutes Du Maroc
The Société Nationale des Autoroutes du Maroc (ADM) is Morocco's national authority for the management of over 1400+ km of Moroccan expressways. ADM is based in Rabat. ADM runs the network on a pay-per-use basis, with toll stations placed along its length. Rental-income from rest-areas and services (fuel, food and drink outlets etc.) form a second income beside the collected toll-revenues. Not only the management of existing roads is ADM's responsibility, management of construction projects and planning of future extensions is part of their mission. History The total length of paved roads in Morocco has grown dramatically over the past decades, and doubled from 14.500 km in 1956 to over 30.000 km now. Studies in the early seventies predicted a growth in traffic-load of 6% a year, meaning that every twelve years the traffic doubles. In 1975 construction started on the first stage of the motorway between Casablanca and Rabat. Financial restrictions slowed down develop ...

Public Corporations
A public company is a company whose ownership is organized via shares of stock which are intended to be freely traded on a stock exchange or in over-the-counter markets. A public (publicly traded) company can be listed on a stock exchange (listed company), which facilitates the trade of shares, or not (unlisted public company). In some jurisdictions, public companies over a certain size must be listed on an exchange. In most cases, public companies are ''private'' enterprises in the ''private'' sector, and "public" emphasizes their reporting and trading on the public markets. Public companies are formed within the legal systems of particular states, and therefore have associations and formal designations which are distinct and separate in the polity in which they reside. In the United States, for example, a public company is usually a type of corporation (though a corporation need not be a public company), in the United Kingdom it is usually a public limited company (plc), in F ...

Call For Bids
An invitation to tender (ITT, otherwise known as a call for bids or a request for tenders) is a formal, structured procedure for generating competing offers from different potential suppliers or contractors looking to obtain an award of business activity in works, supply, or service contracts, often from companies who have been previously assessed for suitability by means of a supplier questionnaire (SQ) or pre-qualification questionnaire (PQQ). The term "notice inviting tenders" (NIT) is often used in purchasing in India. An ITT differs from a request for quotation (RFQ) or a request for proposal (RFP), in which case other reasons (technology used, quality) might cause or allow choice of the second best offer. An RFP is a request for a price from a buyer but the buyer would also expect suggestions and ideas on how the project work should be done. RFPs are thus focused on more than just pricing/cost, they entail a bit of consulting from the contractor or vendor. The closest equi ...
