Review and risk notes
Review procedure

Business Services Organisation, Procurement and Logistics Service will incorporate a standstill period at the point information on the award of the Contract is communicated to Tenderers. That notification will provide full information on the award decision. The standstill period, which will be for a minimum of 10 calendar days provides time for unsuccessful tenderers to challenge the award decision before the Contract is entered into. The Public Contract 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.

Publisher note: Further to the information provided in Section V.1) Information of Non-Award, the Contract has not been awarded as the specification published for Tender 3079443 did not accurately reflect the requirements for Health and Social Care in Northern Ireland. The Tender has therefore been stood down.
