Precise information on deadline(s) for review procedures:
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.
