ABU DHABI, UAE — June 7, 2010 — Monaqasat.com, the leading online tender process management provider in the Middle East today announced that more than AED 1 billion of project tenders have been managed and awarded through the provider’s online platform.

In order to complete the documentation of a tender, Documenters must often upload dozens of individual documents. Up to today, this was a time-consuming activity as it required the end user to enter files one by one, regularly check their upload progress and repeat for every file.

Too much email is as much a cause of lost productivity as not enough. As such, we have today rolled out a new option for Monaqasat users to allow them to configure exactly what kind of emails they would like to receive, and how often.

One of the most common questions we get asked is what kind of browsers we support. Well, we’re happy to say that we support all major new browsers, including Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox or Safari on both Windows and Mac.

Almost one year after Monaqasat officially launched, we are happy to announce that we are about to release Monaqasat 1.5, which includes dozens of new features, fixes and improvements. Our goal was simple: make Monaqasat Easier, More Efficient and More Secure:

As of today, over 540 Bill of Quantities (BOQs) have been uploaded to Monaqasat with an average of 465 items per BOQ. As any Technical Documenter will probably confirm, creating and managing these relatively large BOQ is quite an intensive work.
