Review procedure

In accordance with Regulation 86 (Notices of decisions to award a contract or conclude a framework), Regulation 87 (Standstill periods) and Chapter 6 (Applications to Court) of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015(SI 2015/102), the contracting authority incorporated a minimum ten (10) calendar day standstill period at the point that information on the award of the Framework Agreement was communicated to economic operators.

This period allowed any unsuccessful economic operator(s) to seek further debriefing from the contracting authority before the award of the Framework Agreement to the successful economic operators.

Such additional information was to be requested from the address at Sections I.1 and I.3 of this Notice above.

If an appeal regarding the award of the Framework Agreement had not been successfully resolved, then the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (SI 2015/102) 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 (England, Wales and Northern Ireland).

Any such action must be started within thirty (30) days beginning with the date when the aggrieved party first knew or sought to have grounds for starting the proceedings had arisen.

The Court may extend the time limited for starting proceedings where the Court considers that there is a good reason for doing so, but not so as to permit proceedings to be started more than three (3) months after that date.

Where the Framework Agreement has not been awarded, the Court may order the setting aside of the award decision or order the contracting authority to amend any document and may award damages.

If however the Framework Agreement has been awarded, the Court may only award damages or, where the award procedures have not been followed correctly, declare the Framework Agreement to be ineffective.

Publisher note: This exercise was run as an Open Procedure in accordance with the requirements under Regulation 27(5) of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (SI 2015/102) for the purpose of establishing a Framework Agreement for the provision of the Works and Goods as described in the procurement documents.
