The Commission on Elections (Comelec) is scheduled to sign today the contract for the cleansing of the computerized voters’ list with the project’s winning bidder Unison Joint Venture.

James Jimenez, Comelec’s spokesperson, said the meeting will be at the poll body’s main office in Palacio del Gobernador, Intramuros Manila.

Comelec chairman Jose Melo, being the head of the procuring entity, will sign the contract with the Unison Joint Venture comprised of the following: Unison Computer Systems Inc., Lamco Paper Products Co. Inc., and NEC Philippines Incorporated.

Last Sept. 11, the poll body approved the project’s contract which has four components.
