Philippines - Comelec worried as more bidders disqualified | ABS-CBN News Online Beta

Comelec worried as more bidders disqualified | ABS-CBN News Online Beta:

Poll officials are getting “jittery’ over the successive disqualification of companies that bid for the automation of the May 2010 polls, as only one, out of the seven, remains in the running.

The special bids and awards committee (SBAC) of the Commission on Elections (Comelec), as of posting, had declared six consortiums ineligible to bid. They failed due to different reasons.

The latest casualties were Syrex Inc., and AMA Group of Companies/Election Systems and Software (ES&S).

Syrex, a Filipino firm, failed to submit its Securities and Exchange Commission registration, while Filipino firm AMA and its US partner ES&S failed to present an export and import license.
