Per the new agreement, Tejari will offer its online procurement solutions to enable the institute expedite its buying and supply process.

Established in 1980 in Amman, Al Quds College is a premier institute recognized for its broad range of internationally-accredited courses and certificates. Upholding its mission to nurture and train young professionals, Al Quds College is in the process of commissioning a new state-of-the-art campus and training center which will include a School of IT, School of Arts & Creative Technology, Tourism & Hospitality School, Language Center, Management School, and a Vocational Training school. The new campus will not only offer a higher degree of education but will also enhance the teacher-student level of interaction.

By using Tejari's e-procurement solution, Al Quds College will now have access to a significantly wider database of suppliers in the region, and will be able to source building materials for the new training center, computer and IT peripherals, furniture, tools and equipment through the online marketplace. Joining Tejari will further enable the college to automate and streamline its procurement cycle by identifying and comparing prices online and cutting back on paper-based buying processes.

"The new training centre is a step towards our commitment to achieve excellence in education. Prior to joining Tejari, we found sourcing raw materials and maintaining a competitive, up-to-date list of buyers and suppliers a daunting task. However, we now have a wider choice and can source products from across Jordan and the wider region in highly transparent and competitively-priced manner,"


said Ibrahim Al Safadi, Executive Director for Al Quds College.

Tejari's agreement with Al Quds College marks the emergence of e-procurement potential in the country's education sector. In the last twelve months, Tejari has made considerable strides in attracting members and generating online transactions from the financial services, manufacturing, transportation, logistics, & services sectors.

"In terms of widening business reach and reducing procurement cost, Tejari is delivering measurable results to a growing number of organizations in Jordan. We're delighted that Al Quds College sees online procurement as an important complement to its expansion plans, and anticipate further interest from other academic institutions this year," said Yazan Hatamleh, Managing Director of Tejari Jordan.
