A company currently under investigation for allegedly overcharging the Zimbabwean Electoral Commission millions of dollars for voting devices and other election-related items is among five firms bidding to print South Africa’s new driving licence cards.revealing that it was “almost at the brink of pronouncing a new dawn in the driving licence card environment”.
The IEC described the VMDs as a “game-changer” and spent R566.1 million to acquire 40,000 of them for R14,000 per unit. In this year’s elections, the VMDs again malfunctioned, forcing election officials to switch back to the physical voters rolls.“Ren-Form’s contract was for the supply of hardware only which comprises a rugged tablet in a carry case,” the company said.“Ren-Form has no knowledge of how the device software was developed and integrated onto the VMDs as it falls outside of the scope of the services it rendered in terms of the contract.
The Zimbabwe Anti-Corruption Commission is investigating money laundering and abuse of office in a $40-million tender that Ren-Form secured to provide the ZEC with biometric voter registration hardware and election-related items. The publication provided a detailed account explaining how the trio went about facilitating the deal between Ren-Form and the ZEC through a number of meetings and interactions with various roleplayers.
