Details

The main aim of this EOI is to shortlist the best-in-class IMC agencies who are keen to undergo the RFP/Tender/Bidding process and demonstrate having the right levels of skill capacity and capability to undertake these services in line with the scope requirements. We plan to have the appointed firm supported by specialized technologies/tools and capabilities necessary for servicing the Safaricom account, to handle the whole portfolio of services, coupled with an intimate knowledge of the operating environment.
