Puran Brothers Disposal Inc yesterday defended its credentials and rubbished claims of bias in the award of a $221M contract for management of the Haags Bosch landfill which has since seen a Cevons Waste Disposal-led consortium filing a historic protest.
“We satisfied all the criteria in the tender document…so it is unfair and untrue that Cevons would say all these things,” General Manager of Puran’s, Kaleshwar Puran, told Stabroek News yesterday.
Cevons sought recourse to the recently-established Bid Protest Committee (BPC) after the Ministry of Communities, the procuring agency, rejected its request for a review of the contract award on the grounds that the bid by the Cevons group was not the most responsive.
