The Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (‘Regulations’) provide for aggrieved parties who have been harmed or 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 brought promptly and
within the time limits as defined in the above regulations.

If the contract has been entered into the court has the options to award damages and/or to shorten or order the contract ineffective.

Tenders that fail the requirements of the SSQ will be rejected and will not proceed further in the tender evaluation. Bidders may submit tenders either for one or two Lots by completing separate Method Statements (Schedule 6 A and/or B) and Pricing Schedule (Schedule 5 A and/or B). Bidders must clearly state within all their tender documents which Lot/s they are applying for.
