Companies capable of fostering dialogue and gathering public insights were essential for HES's objective to inform future policy revisions. The open procurement method signified a transparent and competitive process, encouraging participation from both domestic and international suppliers, although the financial standing was rigorously assessed to ensure contract fulfilment.
