In the Government of Georgia’s External Assistance Management Information System (EAMIS), this project is called the ‘Purchase of Railway Inspection System for the Revenue Service of the Ministry of Finance of Georgia (installed in Gardabani)’. The Georgian project title is საქართველოს ფინანსთა სამინისტროს შემოსავლების სამსახურისთვის სარკინიგზო საინსპექციო სისტემის შეძენა (განთავსდა რკინიგზის პორტალ გარდაბნის ტერიტორიაზე). AidData has assumed, based on experience, that the Chinese Ministry of Commerce funded this ETCA.
