Man project, woman tender, suspicion of conflict of interest in Libran Ali's ministry

Ministry of Environment, Space Planning and Infrastructure - MMPHI, which is led by Lieburn Aliu, has preceded the construction of a subpass on the Gjilan Highway known as the A7 Autoway, specifically in the middle of the Slovenian Golesh Road.

Based on the procedures, it is the ministry that makes the assessment of the detailed project, to initiate it later in the procurement process.
Periscop has found that <x0 Project is drafted by the company “GEO MAP” contracted by the former Infrastructure Ministry. Based on ARBK's data, the owner of this company is Florent Emini.

Florent Emini and company owner “Pro& The Co Group”, Armenda Beqiri, is a husband and wife who, therefore, design and implementation are conducted by the same family.
Based on legislation in force for public procurement, this situation constitutes possible conflicts of interest.

“The ethical procurement code”, in Article 5, has Article “Interest conflict”. Here paragraph 5.4 shows there are three specific points of a public procurement procedure where the conflict of interest can arise:

• within authority contracted!
• Between contracting authority and tenderers
• Between the one who has prepared technical specifications/other supporting documents and tenderers.

Calling to this article on the Ethical Procure Code, Periscopi has requested an answer from the MPHI information office about whether there were conflicts of interest in the case. This office has not responded to the publication of this article.

This procurement activity has been initiated since September 2022, but for several months it was stuck in the Procureing Organization- OSHP.

First, three companies have competed for the tender. After the offers were opened, the ministry had formed the commission for their worthiness. The commission had recommended that the entire procurement activity be cancelled with the argument that “during pre-mature checks the evaluation commission has encountered a gap between the project's parameters and the parameters initiated by the application unit, placed in the tender file”.

The company in the Pro& race had not agreed with this decision. The Co Group”, which had the cheapest price, had applied for review to the ministry. MMMPHHIA turned down the complaint, but that O It had turned into a reevaluation.

MMPHI has later turned the lens into re-evaluation and recommended the Pro& Company contract. Co Group”

If there are no further complaints, the contract is expected to be signed with this operator. /Periscopi/
