A British engineering firm is set for a fresh round of a heated tender war with the National Irrigation Board (NIB) over a lucrative contract to build and operate a Sh200 billion massive dam in eastern Kenya that has been muddled by a protracted procurement dispute.

Kenya's Public Procurement Administrative Review Board (PPARB), the State agency that handles disputes arising from government tendering, has asked the irrigation agency to review the bidding again restricting it to British’s firm’s proposal leaving the fate of the consortium GBM and ERG Engineering in NIB’s hands.
