The Public Contracts Regulations 2015 provide for aggrieved parties who have been harmed or are at risk of harm by a breach of the rules to take action in the High Court (Northern Ireland).
Publisher note: The estimated total value of the contract awarded stated above in Section V.2.4 excluding Value-Added Tax (VAT) and Climate Change Levy (CCL), is based on an all-inclusive price per kWh of £0.23. Notional wholesale Electricity prices comprise the majority of costs on this Contract, these wholesale prices are highly volatile and subject to changes in market pricing. The actual value of the contract may be significantly higher or lower than the estimated total value stated. In the event any subsequent Contract is terminated in accordance with the provisions of the terms and conditions, the University reserves the right to offer the second ranked Tenderer in this tender, the opportunity to enter into a contract, provided the original terms (including price) offered by that Tenderer remain unchanged from those originally offered by that Tenderer during the course of this tender. Should this not be the case and/or the second ranked Tenderer declines, the University reserves the right to approach the next ranked Tenderer in turn on the same basis. This will continue until all ranked Tenderers have been exhausted or if the University determines, at its sole discretion, to retender. This right will exist throughout the initial contract period.
