We have not been doing that.

We need to review not only the contracts that were won, but also the bids of contractors that were put in and then withdrawn. Evidence was found in a Spanish court that the tactic of bidding and then withdrawing to sabotage the procurement process was rife. Does the CCPC carry out reviews over a longer period to see whether that is happening here with companies pulling out?
