Context
The Presidency of the Republic is the executive body of the Executive Branch of Uruguay. Public Tender 9/2021 is a state procurement procedure.
The rule it puts in play
No regulation is breached by receiving a single offer. It is the first of the risk indicators used by control bodies worldwide, and what it opens is a question about the tender documents and the deadline, not a formal investigation.
What is missing to say more
To assess whether competition was adequate, it would be necessary to know the details of the tender documents. This would allow determining if the conditions set by the agency limited the participation of other bidders.
Who should answer
The Presidency of the Republic must explain the reasons why only one bidder participated.
