Is the bid of a tenderer whose figures in words and numbers do not agree included in the calculation of the threshold value?

Decision number:

2020/UY.I-2161

Decision date:

12 February 2023

The appeal stated in summary that, although a tenderer's bid for lot 1 had been excluded from the evaluation on the ground that the price offered in the bid letter had not been clearly written so that the figures and words agreed, that tenderer's bid had nonetheless been included in the calculation of the threshold value.
