Mr. Doan, you were the chief information officer at the time. If I understand correctly, you were informed one morning that a mobile app was needed. You decided to choose a hybrid solution rather than contract out the work entirely. Once that decision was made, it was no longer your responsibility, but that of the procurement officials. However, no one contacted you to give you any feedback. Afterwards, it was through the media that you learned the name of the firm selected.
What you're telling us is that even though you weren't personally responsible for awarding contracts, your opinion was never sought, even though you were the chief information officer. You were never asked for your opinion on which companies could carry out a contract and which did not.
Is that correct?
