Question juridique clé
Whether the public-law appeal remained admissible after the contract had been signed and only the legality finding and damages were still at stake.
Solution extraite
Yes. The appellant retained a current legal interest in challenging the dismissal; the appeal could concern only the admissibility of the cantonal decision.
Motifs extraits
After signature, the request to annul the award became moot, but the losing bidder could still seek a declaration of unlawfulness and, if necessary, damages. The Federal Court therefore reviewed only whether the cantonal court had correctly refused to enter into the case.
