- Review procedure
The contracting Authority has incorporated within its procedures a minimum 10 calendar day standstill period(or 15 days where non-electronic or fax methods are used) which has been notified to all bidders and interested parties.
The award decision notice specified the criteria for the award of the contract/framework agreement, the reasons for the decision, including the characteristics and relative advantages, the name and score of the successful tender: and it specified when the standstill period was expected to end or the date before which the contracting authority will not conclude the contract/framework agreement.
The appeal process was incorporated regarding the award of the contract, and no such notifications have been received to date. The Public Contracts (Amendment) Regulations 2009 provide for aggrieved parties who have been harmed or at risk of a breach of the rules to take action in the High Court (England, Wales and Northern Ireland)
Any such action must be brought promptly (generally within 30 days)
The court may order the setting aside of the award decision or may order the Contracting Authority to amend any document and may award damages.
If a framework agreement has been entered into the Court may make a declaration of ineffectiveness or may order that the duration of any relevant specific contract be shortened and additionally may award damages. The time limit for seeking such a declaration is generally 30 days from notification of the award (either by award decision notification or contract award notice depending upon the circumstances).
Publisher note: This project is LUF central government funded and therefore there is no specific requirement for a Project Bank Account however the Development Management Agreement has an agreed approach with the supply chain that will also include visibility of payments to Contractors and thus being more advantageous to the entire supply chain.

- Change The Framework Agreement is being extended in accordance with Reg 72 (1)(a) and for the purposes of transparency is being published herein, albeit in accordance with Reg 72(3) this is not necessary. The extension is for a period of 2 years which means that the Framework Agreement will operate until 2028. The reason for this extension under Reg 72 (1)(a) is duly justified as the criteria for such an extension had been provided for in the initial procurement documents in clear, precise and unequivocal review clauses, which stated the scope and nature of possible modification as well as the conditions under which they could be used, and in accordance with Reg 33(3) the justification is linked to the subject matter of the contract, in that DLL have identified that an extension is required to fulfil other lawful obligations it has committed to during the course of the Framework., Need for modification brought about by circumstances which a diligent contracting authority/entity could not foresee: Please note that both of the sections within VII.2.2 are not applicable in the given circumstances. The modification being made relates to a modification under Reg 72 (1)(a) and is an extension of the framework agreement in compliance with Reg. 33(3).
