Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the award had to be made by an appealable formal award decision with statutory minimum content and service
Decisione estratta
The award authority had to issue an appealable formal award decision containing the statutory minimum information and serve it on the bidders; a letter from the planning engineering office was insufficient.
Motivazione estratta
Only a formal award decision with the price of the selected offer and a brief explanation why it is the economically most advantageous offer allows meaningful appeal. By omitting such a decision, the authority committed not merely a formal defect but failed to make a lawful award at all.
