Bratislava, June 29 (TASR) - The Public Procurement Office (UVO) said on Tuesday it has ordered the highway-maintenance state company NDS to re-include the firms STRABAG and VAHOSTAV-SK among the bidders for a tender competition to build the R4 motorway Kosice - Milhost stretch after they were wrongfully excluded.
The Office decided that NDS has arbitrarily favoured firms with more-expensive bids in an expedient selection – flouting the rules of equal treatment, transparency and non-discrimination in the process.
According to the Office, the NDS selection system lacked transparency, and so much of the material was unreviewable.
