# Secure service-edge solution for the Central Bank of Kenya

The Central Bank of Kenya invites open tenders for the design, supply, implementation, deployment and commissioning of a secure service-edge solution (CBK/048/2026-2027). The PPIP API describes the category as non-consultancy services and specifies written submission, including physical/hard-copy delivery or generic email or a similar mechanism. The API gives a closing date of 29 October 2026 at 10:30, without a timezone; the available notice information gives 07:30 UTC on that date. Because the sources do not establish the time basis, only the shared calendar date is treated as reliable. No estimated value or award is available.
