- Review procedure
City Building (Glasgow) LLP must, by notice in writing as soon as possible, after the decision has been made,inform all bidders and candidates concerned of its decision to award the contract. City Building (Glasgow) LLP must allow a period of at least the relevant standstill period (where the notice is sent by facsimile or electronic means the period is 10 days ending at midnight at the end of the 10th day after that on which the notice is sent, when sent by other means the period is 15 days) to elapse between the date of despatch of the notice referred to in Regulation 86 of the Public Contract (Scotland) Regulations 2015 “the Regulations”). City Building(Glasgow) LLP is obliged to comply with the Regulations and any eligible economic operator can bring an action in the Sherriff Court or the Court of Session where as a consequence of a breach by City Building (Glasgow)LLP, suffers or risks suffering loss or damage. The bringing of court proceedings during the standstill period means that City Building (Glasgow) LLP must not enter into the contract unless the proceedings are determined,discontinued or disposed of; or the court, by interim order, brings to an end the prohibition. The bringing of court proceedings after the standstill period has elapsed and the remedies that are available to the courts are detailedin the Regulations. Economic Operators can write to City Building (Glasgow) LLP seeking further clarification onthe notice, to which City Building (Glasgow) LLP must respond within 15 days. Economic Operators should bemindful to seek their own independent legal advice when they consider appropriate to do so.
Publisher note: As per V.2.2) Information about tenders - Number of tenders received from SMEs for each Lot this is noted as 1 to get by this part of the notice. Bidders when registering with PCS are not obliged to advise if they are an SME. Their SME status is shown in each contractor awarded at Is the contractor an SME? The annual contract value is estimated to be GBP 125 million across all lots - it is difficult to determine spend per lot. As such GBP 500,000,000 being the expected value of the total procurement is noted in the award section for each Lot. While this is the approach we have adopted, it is not the case that each of the awarded lots will be utilised separately to the full framework value. Whilst the contract commenced on 15/07/24 the interim period has been used getting signed contracts back from contractors. (SC Ref:770730)
