If the preferred bidder is the one able to supply the product much cheaper, is there a fear that a bigger player will undercut small and medium enterprises and remove them? Is it the case from day one in the process that this simply cannot happen? A large company can drop its prices and if the Government wants to save money, it can go to it and small and medium enterprises will be blown out of the water.
