Regarding the Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics, a person involved in a company that received an order for the work of the test competition, which has been suspected of collusion, told JNN, “The organizing committee asked me to provide an estimate for the main competition, and I received the order without bidding. I did,” he testified. Regarding the bidding that the Tokyo Organizing Committee conducted in 2018 to entrust the planning work of the “test tournament”, there is a suspicion that the contractors have adjusted in advance the companies that will receive the orders. Bids were held for each venue, and nine companies and one group, including the major advertising company Dentsu, won a total of about 500 million yen. In this bidding, an official of a company that received an order for a test tournament at a certain venue told JNN, “The organizing committee asked me to provide an estimate for the operation of the main tournament at the same venue.” I was able to receive the order through a negotiated contract without bidding.” According to the Organizing Committee’s report, the total cost of operating the venues for this tournament is 16 billion yen. On the other hand, an interview with a person concerned revealed that one of the companies that received the order, the major advertising company “ADK Holdings,” voluntarily reported violations to the Fair Trade Commission due to the suspicion of collusion. The Special Investigation Department and the Fair Trade Commission are expected to cooperate in the investigation. ▼TBS NEWS DIG official website https://newsdig.tbs.co.jp/ ▼Please subscribe to the channel! http://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6AG81pAkf6Lbi_1VC5NmPA?sub_confirmation=1 ▼Provide information here “TBS Insiders” https://www.tbs.co.jp/news_sp/tbs-insiders.html ▼Provide video Click here for “TBS Scoop Post” https://www.tbs.co.jp/news_sp/toukou.html
