Pleas in law and main arguments

The applicant claims that the method of execution of the above mentioned procurement procedure was not conducted fairly by the defendant.

The applicant submits, first, that the grounds for rejecting its bid are not sufficiently motivated. In particular, the extracts of the evaluation sheet which have been forwarded to the applicant allegedly fail to explain adequately why the contract was awarded to another tenderer.

Secondly, the applicant further submits that the defendant's letter dated 15 May 2007 contains formal defects since the annex B to the evaluation report was allegedly not signed by persons entrusted with the tenders' assessment.
