During a supplier selection, a project manager learns that a close relative has a financial interest in one bidder. What is the most appropriate action?

Published
  1. Remove the bidder without informing the procurement authority
  2. Share competing bids with the relative to test the bidder's pricing
  3. Disclose the potential conflict and follow the organization's recusal and procurement rules
  4. Continue scoring privately because the manager believes they can be objective
