Suntrust has appointed IGT Asia as the contractor for its Westside City project in Manila, which is scheduled to open in the first quarter of 2025.
The appointment, formalised through an agreement dated October 11, 2024, tasks IGT Asia with the supply and maintenance of gaming management equipment, software, and services. The contract is valued at approximately US$4.72m for the supply portion, with an additional $566,520 allocated for maintenance services.
The decision to award the contract to IGT Asia followed an arm’s-length negotiation process, considering factors such as the estimated cost, market pricing for similar work and competitive tender bids. Among the four contractors that submitted tenders, IGT’s bid was the second lowest. However, the company’s extensive experience and the superior functionality of its products made it the preferred choice.
