Review and risk notes
Review procedure

Newcastle University will incorporate a minimum 10 calendar day standstill period at the

point information on the award of the contract is communicated to tenderers. This period

allows unsuccessful tenderers to seek further debriefing before the contract is entered into.

Applicants have 2 working days from notification of the award decision to request additional

debriefing and 4 / 4 that information has to be provided a minimum of 3 working days before

expiry of the standstill period. Such additional information should be requested from the

address referred to in part 1.1 above. If an appeal regarding the award of a contract has not

been successfully resolved, the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 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 brought

promptly. Where a contract has not been entered into the Court may order the setting aside

of the award decision or order the authority to amend any document and may award

damages. If the contract has been entered into the Court may only award damages
