Dear First Deputy Minister Tamar,

It is a real pleasure writing you today and wishing you well.

Rotary Club Tbilisi Ambassador is happy to announce the near closure of the Global Grant to supply the X-Ray Digital Mobile Unit. We obtained a new offer from the USA. It’s a refurbished General Electric product as in the attachment, in top excellent condition and will have warranty one year from supplier and will get another 2 year warranty from local source. So I need your kind permission for this unit as soon as possible.

We can get this Grant sealed before the end of the month, and usually approval because such medical equipment would not take much time for approval. So We expect that this unit be delivered to you in July or early August as it has to be shipped from the USA by air freight. The donors for this grant were mainly Rotary Clubs and Rotary Districts from USA, Netherlands, Germany, Italy, Switzerland, Luxemburg, Jordan and district 2452 which consists of (Armenia, Bahrain, Cyprus, Georgia, Lebanon, Jordan, Palestine, UAE and Sudan)

Furthermore, we need to make the ceremony for the MOU signatures as soon as possible as it a mandatory for Rotary Global Grant, unfortunately I would not be able to attend as I am still locked in Dubai and waiting to get final call as a resident in Georgia with Jordanian passport to get in without any restrictions. We also need the details on who would be the beneficiary so that invoices and bill of lading be issued in that name, so it can be cleared from Customs upon arrival with no delay.

Thanking you for your kind prompt response.

Rgds,

Dear First Deputy Minister Tamar,

At your kind request, we got the attached offer just now. Please let me know if it satisfies your standards.  The company has only 6 on hand, and we we get the remaining 29 by special order. This particular grant will take much shorter time to process because it may be used for COVID 19 Patience. Unless you have a specific type you would like to procure, do not hesitate to let me know from where.

As soon as I get a reply from you, I will proceed accordingly. Thank you for your kind prompt reply.

Dear Bashar Asfour

Many thanks for all your efforts and willingness to assist us in this difficult time. We’ve reviewed offers AURA V seems the most suitable for our hospital needs. Although ventilators are the first priority, just wanted to mention that we are currently looking for vital signs monitor ECG, SpO2, NIBP, RESP, TEMP, Pulse for Rukhi hospital. An estimated need is up to 35 pieces. Would it be possible for the Rotatory to consider purchasing vital sign monitors instead of the ventilator?  Any amount of this equipment would be a big help.

With kind regards

Dear Bashar Asfour

Many thanks for your reply and kind offer. Much appreciated! Attached you can find a summary sheet which describes COVID related needs. The has been communicated to all donors. As for Rukhi hospitals, we intend initially to develop the most basic services needed exclusively for COVID 19 suspected or confirmed cases. Right now we have 100 beds mobilized with 12 ICU machines. Operating rooms will be equipped at a later stage.

Should you have additional questions please contact Maya or myself.

Dear Maia,

Thank you for your swift response. That means a lot to us.

We need some more specification for all the three medical equipment needed as we may be able to get one of each as far as they will reach the min amount of USD 30000.

In the mean while, can you pleas provide me with some more data on the hospital: how many beds, operation rooms, ICU beds, capacity and so on so I can start my executive summary for our Grant.

Thanking you for your kind attention.
