What this means for your bid

Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.

Review and risk notes
Review procedure

The Contracting Authority will incorporate a minimum 10 day calendar day standstill period at the point information on the award of the contact is communicated to tenderers. The Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (SI 2015 nº 102) (as amended) 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 30 days beginning with the date when the aggrieved party first knew or ought to have known that grounds for starting the proceedings had arisen. The Court may extend the time limit 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 3 months after that date. Where a contract has not been entered into, 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 the contract has been entered into the Court may only award damages or, where the contract award procedures have not been followed correctly, declare the contract to be “ineffective”.

Publisher note: The Contracting Authority is subject to the Freedom of Information Act 2000 and the Environmental Information Regulations 2004. All information received will be dealt with in accordance with that Act and information to which the Environmental Information Regulations apply will be dealt with in accordance with those regulations. The Contracting Authority reserves the right not to proceed or not to award a contract for the whole or any part of the proposed procurement. The Contracting Authority will not be liable for any costs incurred by those expressing an interest, participating in dialogue or tendering for this contract.
