Opinion – Tesauro AG said: ‘where a public contract falls to be awarded, it is precisely because the procedure is a competition that it must be ensured that all those who take part have an equal chance; otherwise, it would no longer be a public tendering procedure but private bargaining. In sum, equal treatment underlies any set of rules governing procedures for the award of public contracts since it is the very essence of such procedures.’
