Judgment text as reported

A.M. CONSTRUCTION COMPANY (PRIVATE) LIMITED VS PROVINCE OF PUNJAB through Secretary Communication and Works Department Rr.35, 55 & 56---Terms "lowest bidder" and "successful bidder"---Difference---"Successful bidder" is a post acceptance of bid status of the bidder---Acceptance of bid leads to the stage where concluded contracts come into force either by signatures on contracts or where signatures are not required by placing work orders to bidders---Mere lowest bid does not inevitably usher in its immediate acceptance unless the contract comes in force after examining that the bid satisfied all terms and conditions of bidding document and not in conflict with any other law as provided in R.55 of Punjab Procurement Rules, 2014---Procuring agency under R.35 of Punjab Procurement Rules, 2014 may reject all bids or proposals at any time prior to acceptance of a bid or proposal---Where a bid is accepted and procurement contract is awarded, then rights are created in favour of a successful bidder under procurement contract.
