Review procedure

In accordance with Regulation 86 (Notices of decisions to award a contract or conclude a

framework agreement), Regulation 87 (Standstill periods) and Chapter 6 (Applications to

Court) of the Public Contract Regulations 2015 (SI 2015/102), the contracting authority will

incorporate a minimum ten (10) calendar day standstill period at the point that information

on the award of the Contract is communicated to economic operators.

This period allows any unsuccessful economic operator(s) to seek further debriefing from

the contracting authority before the award (or non-award) of the Contract. Such additional

information can be requested from the address at Sections I.1 and I.3 of this Notice above.

If an appeal regarding the award (or non-award) of the Contract is not successfully resolved,

then the Regulations 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 Contract 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

Contract has been awarded, the Court may only award damages or, where the Contract

award procedures have not been followed correctly, declare the Contract to be ineffective.
