Procurement challenge struck out for being filed late and failing to prove alleged partiality.
Public Procurement — jurisdiction and competence — statutory 10-calendar-day filing deadline — burden to plead and prove conflict of interest or lack of impartiality — strict compliance with time limits — re-evaluation of bids — failure to prove bias extinguishes jurisdiction.
