- Suitability
Economic operators may be excluded from this competition if they are in breach of any of the situations referred to in regulation 58 of the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015
- Price carries 50 points on every lot: a 10% discount moves about 5 points.
- “Dressings” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 540 suppliers, not a single contract.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.

The Authority will notify economic operators who submitted a tender or (where no
deselection notification has previously been made) applied to be selected to tender, of its
decision to award the framework agreement which notification will contain among other
information, a summary of the reasons why the economic operators was unsuccessful. The
notification will incorporate a ‘standstill period’ of a minimum of 10 clear calendar days (or a minimum of 15 if the communication method used is not electronic) between the date on
which the Authority dispatches the notice(s) and the date on which the Authority proposes
to conclude the relevant framework agreement. The bringing of court proceedings against
the Authority during the standstill period will automatically continue the prohibition on
entering into the framework agreement until the court proceedings are determined,
discontinued or disposed of, or the court, by interim order, brings to an end the prohibition.
The remedies that may be awarded by the courts before the framework agreement has been
entered into include the setting aside of the decision to award the framework agreement to
the winning tenderer(s). The bringing of court proceedings against the Authority after the
framework agreement has been entered into will not affect the framework agreement unless
grounds for the imposition of special penalties under the Public Contracts (Scotland)
Regulations 2015 can be established. Otherwise, the remedies that may be awarded by the
courts where the framework agreement has been entered into are limited to the award of
damages
