One company was staffed with all of her friends and ex staffers. The question of graft and a fixed bidding system came up. Behold, a second company was formed. It won the state bid, and a couple of months later the second company bought the first company, placing all of her flunkies in charge.

I would bank on the smaller company, "without any affiliations" winning the bid.

Then, it will buy the connected one that was really the target of the scam.
