According to the EBRD BAS Programme for Armenia procedures, the BAS Programme pre-qualifies suitable providers of consultancy. The qualification of local consultants is evaluated by the BAS team, and accreditation granted for specific advisory service types and sectors of competence.

If an enterprise proposes consultants of its own choice, they must come from the list of pre-qualified business service providers. In all cases, the consultant involved must have the relevant experience, capacity, resources and general competence to undertake the planned assignment successfully.
