Cubic Transportation Systems contends that it submitted a lower bid than rival Indra Systems for Transport for London’s revenue-collection contract and says it should have won the contract but alleges it was treated unfairly in the competition for the lucrative deal.
Cubic made the claims in its lawsuit against TfL seeking to overturn the agency’s decision in July to award the contract to Indra. Among the problems that Cubic’s lawyers spotlighted in their particulars of claim filing for the suit was the fact that two former TfL employees work for consulting firm Rebel Group, which advised Indra on its bid–raising the potential for a conflict of interest.
