Clerical error threatens computers for schools program

Worth zł.350 million, the tender was for the supply of hardware for school internet labs and multimedia centers, however, while filling out the announcement form the officers mistakenly put the word "yes" in a field which was supposed to be left blank. As a result the announcement has a serious legal defect, and could put EU subsidies for the project at risk. The tender does not have to be finalized until the end of this year, however, the mistake is still costly as it has so far put the project three weeks behind schedule. Currently the mistake is being analyzed by lawyers, after which it will be examined by the controllers of the Public Procurement Office. (Puls Biznesu, pp. 1, 4) A.K.
