The successful Contractors performance on the contract will. be regularly monitored and subject to Key Performance Indicators. Contractors not delivering on contract requirements is a serious matter. It means the public purse is not getting what it is paying for. If a contractor fails to reach satisfactory levels of contract performance they will be given a specified time to improve. If, after the specified time, they still fail to reach satisfactory levels of contract performance, the matter will be escalated to senior management in CPD for further action. If this occurs and their performance still does not improve to satisfactory levels within the specified period, it may be regarded as an act of grave professional misconduct and the contract may be terminated. The Authority expressly reserves the right not to award any contract as a result of the procurement process commenced by the publication of this notice.
