- Review procedure
The Authority will incorporate a minimum 10 calendar day standstill period at the point information on the award of the Development Agreement is communicated to tenderers. Applicants who are unsuccessful shall be informed by the Authority as soon as possible after the decision has been made as to the reasons why the Applicant was unsuccessful. If any clarification regarding the award of the Development Agreement has not been successfully resolved, The Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (SI 2015 No. 102) provide for aggrieved parties who have been harmed or are at risk of harm by breach of the rules to take legal action.
Any such action must be brought within the applicable limitation period. 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 a contract has been entered into the Court may, depending on the circumstances, award damages, make a declaration of ineffectiveness, order the Authority to pay a fine, and/or order that the duration of the contract be shortened. The purpose of the voluntary standstill period referred to above is to allow the parties to apply to the Courts to set aside the award decision before the Contract is entered into.
Publisher note: 1. The Public Contracts Regulations 2015 apply to this procurement (the “Regulations”). The Authority is using the Competitive Procedure with Negotiation in accordance with Regulation 29 of the Regulations. 2. The Authority estimates that the gross development value of the opportunity is 22,000,000 GBP. This estimate is reflective of current values and does not allow for any inflation. 3. Interested economic operators (Applicants) are required to register on the Authority’s e-tendering portal. Applicants can access this system at www.the-chest.org.uk (the “Portal”) where the details of how to register and the terms of free registration are provided. If an Applicant wishes to be considered as a tenderer it must complete and submit a response to the Authority’s Standard Selection Questionnaire via the Portal by specified submission deadline. Responses to the SSQ cannot be uploaded after the submission deadline. 4. Applicants are referred to the Procurement Documents accompanying this Contract Notice for additional information on this procurement and in relation to this Contract Notice. 5. The Authority reserves the right to withdraw from or discontinue the procurement process, which shall include the right to not award the Development Agreement as a result of this call for competition. 6. Tenders and all supporting documentation for the contract must be in English and priced in sterling. 7.

Any clarifications regarding this opportunity must be raised through the messaging facility on the Portal. 9. The Authority undertakes to hold confidential any information provided in any tender submitted, subject to the Authority’s obligations under law, including the Freedom of Information Act 2000. If the tenderer considers that any of the information submitted in the tender should not be disclosed because of its commercial sensitivity or for reasons of confidentiality, then this should be stated with the reason for considering it sensitive. The Authority will then endeavour to consult with the tenderer about such commercially sensitive or confidential information when considering any request received under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 before replying to such a request, but the decision of the Authority in deciding whether an exemption applies is final. 10. The Authority reserves the right to carry out additional financial checks on all economic operators tendering for this opportunity at any time during the procurement process, to ensure that they continue to meet the Authority’s requirements and remain financially viable to deliver the project and perform the Development Agreement. 11.
