Some local and international bidders want the Kenya Integrated Elections Management System (KIEMS) tender nullified and re-advertised, citing irregularities.

The bidders, who applied for the KIEMS tender by the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC), alleged that the electoral agency worked with one bidder – a French firm – to develop the tender document.
