The other two bids, ID Security IDSi and C\u00e9dula 4.0 FZCO, were discarded, and although one of them filed a challenge, it was formally rejected.\n\nThe Committee opened the economic proposal of the EMDOC Consortium, made up of companies from the Dominican Republic, Panama, and Germany. The offer amounts to more than 3,000 million pesos and includes ID cards, high-tech printers, biometric equipment, cameras, fingerprint and signature readers, as well as maintenance and support services.\n\n\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>You can also read: <a href=\"https:\/\/ab.deultimominuto.net\/nacionales\/vencimiento-cedula-de-identidad\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">M\u00e1ximo Romero speaks out on the expiration of the ID card<\/a><\/strong><\/h6>\n\n\nJCE authorities specified that this phase corresponds only to the opening of envelopes, without implying immediate adjudication. The proposal will now be evaluated in detail by the Tendering Committee, which will determine if it aligns with the institutional budget and the interests of the institution. The final decision will be announced in the coming days or weeks.\n\nIn the midst of this process, the Generation of Servers Party (GenS), led by engineer Carlos Pe\u00f1a, sent a communication to the JCE expressing its opposition to the opening of the economic proposal without first cleaning up the electoral roll. The political organization warned that the new ID card should not be implemented without first removing from the civil registry undocumented foreign citizens who appear as Dominicans, especially pointing out the presence of illegal Haitians. Pe\u00f1a assured that his party supports the modernization of the document, but only if a transparent and reliable registration is guaranteed before the citizenry.\n\nThe JCE has insisted that the process is carried out in strict adherence to the law and under the supervision of technical bodies, in order to guarantee transparency and trust in the modernization of the most important document for Dominicans.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Santo Domingo.\u2013 The international public bidding process carried out by the Central Electoral Board (JCE) for the hiring of the company that will supply equipment, materials and printing services for the new identity and electoral card is advancing towards its crucial stage, with only one consortium in competition.
