One of the bidders got disqualified due to the fact that they failed  the PSQ Stage and three out of the four bidders Providers passed the PSQ and progressed in the procurement.\nProviders were assessed against a threshold score of 55.00% of the available score.\nBased on the outcome of the evaluation, and in line with the criteria stipulated by the Authority within the documentation, it was recommended that the contract be awarded to the highest-scoring Bidder who exceeded the threshold score.\nConflicts of Interest:\nTo safeguard against potential conflicts of interest influencing the procurement process and evaluations, all panel members signed conflict of interest declarations and non-disclosure agreements.
