Reward us, say Olympic firms

Article Abstract:

Foreign Office Architects and Allies and Morrison who were pivotal in bringing the 2012 Olympic Games to London have called for their 'selfless' work to be rewarded with more commissions on the project. These groups were told that they would only be employed up to the date of the International Olympic Committee's decision, as it was always policy that the architectural work would then be re-tendered.
