The Court of Appeal (CoA) has dismissed an appeal brought by a partnership of two companies, one local and one foreign, who were hoping to win a tender to provide technical advisory services to Sir Ketumile Masire Teaching Hospital (SKMTH).

The companies under the name Nogid (Pty) Ltd/ Smidek Management International GmbH Partnership had taken legal action after the hospital withdrew the tender award, which they believed had already been granted to them.

They had claimed in their appeal papers that the cancellation caused them to lose millions of pula and also accused the hospital of acting unfairly and without giving them a chance to be heard.
