The procurement watchdog has ordered Kenya Electricity Transmission Company Limited (Ketraco) to award a tender for the design, construction and commercial operation of a Tier IV Data Centre to Rentco Africa Limited.

In giving its orders the Public Procurement Administrative Review Board (PPARB) noted that the mere fact that a post-qualification exercise was conducted on Rentco Africa, is a sign that the company was the tenderer that had submitted the lowest evaluated responsive bid and ought to be awarded the contract.
