Tbilisi City Hall plans to spend GEL 7.21 million on the maintenance and operation of the capital’s street lighting network and architectural illumination of buildings. The service will be procured through a simplified, non-tender procedure.
Mayor Kakha Kaladze signed the relevant order on October 30, 2026. City Hall says managing the city’s lighting network requires complex, specialized technical equipment.
According to Tbilservice Group, the municipal company is the only provider with a centralized remote-control system capable of switching street lights across the city on and off according to a preset schedule or as needed. Citing the company’s exclusive capacity to provide the service, City Hall intends to award the contract without a tender, subject to approval from the State Procurement Agency.
The total cost will be covered by the city’s budget over two years: GEL 2.316 million in 2026 and GEL 4.894 million in 2027. The funding comes from the “Street Lighting Network Operation and Rehabilitation” programme.
