Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology (JKUAT) has been ordered to carry out a fresh evaluation of a tender for the provision of security services to the institution after it emerged that the winning bidder quoted an amount above the approved budget.
The Public Procurement Administrative Review Board noted that Makini Security Services Ltd had quoted Sh46.9 million for the one-year contract to provide security to the main campus and JKUAT’s satellite campuses, yet the approved budget is Sh45 million.
