The Czech Defence Ministry has cancelled the decision on the winner of a tender for consultation services in the purchase of combat vehicles for the infantry, on the basis of a bidder's complaint, daily Lidove noviny (LN) writes today.

The Krutak & Partners firm, which finished second, challenged the references of the winner, the Broz, Sedlaty legal office, and the Ministry accepted two of the three objections, LN adds.

One of the conditions was sufficient experience with comprehensive consultancy. The winning office reported two tenders of the Road and Motorway Directorate (RSD) in its reference material, but the RSD allegedly withdrew from the contracts in both cases.

It is not sure whether the referential contracts met all parametres that the contracting authority required in the contract documentation, defence lawyer Tomas Krutak told LN.

The Broz, Sedlaty office claims that the documents it presented were true and met the conditions.
