The statement of use and limitations explains the report’s purpose: informing recipients of INT investigation findings, while restricting reliance for administrative, criminal, or civil proceedings. It also clarifies privileges and immunities and frames investigation background, contracts, and procurement-related evidence.","Public Disclosure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized  \nRepublic of Kenya  \nEastern Africa Regional Transport, Trade and Development Facilitation Project  \nRedacted Report  \nMarch 2021  \nStatement of Use and Limitations  \nThis strictly confidential report (the Report) was prepared by the World Bank Group (the “WBG”) Integrity Vice Presidency (“INT”) . It provides the findings of an INT administrative inquiry (the“Investigation”) into allegations of corrupt, fraudulent, collusive, and/or coercive practices, as defined by the WBG for the purposes of its own policies, rules and procedures (the “WBG’s Anticorruption Framework”), in relation to WBG-supported activities. The purpose of the Investigation was to allow the WBG to determine if the WBG’s Anti-corruption Framework had been violated.  \nThis Report is being shared to ensure that its recipients are aware of the results of the INT Investigation. However, in view of the specific and limited purpose of the Investigation underlying this Report, this Report should not be used as the sole basis for initiating any administrative, criminal, or civil proceedings. Moreover, this Report should not be cited or otherwise referred to in the course of any investigation, in any investigation reports, or in any administrative, civil, or criminal proceedings.  \nThis Report is provided without prejudice to the privileges and immunities conferred on the institutions comprising the WBG and their officers and employees by their respective constituent documents and any other applicable sources of law. The WBG reserves the right to invoke these privileges and immunities, including at any time during the course of an investigation or a subsequent judicial, administrative or other proceeding that your authorities may pursue in connection with this matter. These privileges and immunities cannot be waived without the prior express written authorization ofthe WBG.  \nBackground  \nIn July 2015, the International Development Association entered into a Financing Agreement with the Republic of Kenya (“Kenya”) for the Eastern Africa Regional Transport, Trade and Development Facilitation Project (the “Project”) . The Project became effective in November 2015 and is scheduled to close in December 2021.  \nThe Project seeks to improve the movement of goods and people along the Lokichar – Nadapal/Nakodok part ofthe Eldoret-Nadapal/Nakodok road in the north-western part of Kenya, in particular, and to enhance connectivity between Kenya and South Sudan, in general. It is implemented by, among other entities, the Kenya National Highways Authority (the “KeNHA”) .  \nCompany A, an engineering construction company, bid for and was awarded two contracts under Project A for Contract A and Contract B.  \nAllegations & Methodology  \nThe World Bank’s Integrity Vice Presidency (“INT”) received an allegation that Company A had misrepresented its past experience in its bid for the Contract B.  \nINT investigated Company A bids for both Contract A and Contract B. INT reviewed relevant procurement and Project documents and sought verification of Company A’s claimed past experience.  \nFindings  \n1. Evidence indicates that Company A misrepresented its past experience in its bid for Contract B, submitting falsified documents in support of its claims.  \nIn December 2015, the KeNHA issued the Invitation for Bids and the Bidding Documents for Contract B. The Bidding Documents required that bidders provide the details of specific past construction and contract management experience with supporting documentation.  \nIn April 2016, Company A submitted its bid for Contract B. In its bid, it claimed to have completed two contracts that purportedly met the Bidding Documents’ requirements: one for the construction of the CGSG-4 section (Contract X) and another for the construction of the S202 Section (Contract Z) .  \nCompany A was subsequently awarded Contract B in November 2016 and began Contract B implementation.  \nHowever, evidence
