- Published justification
Call-off from the NHS Digital Terminology Solutions Framework Agreement ensures a compliant procurement route without a requirement to complete the full procurement process. A full procurement process was undertaken by NHS Digital (England) for Terminology Servers – the result of which is a single supplier Framework Agreement with Dedalus, ensuring value for money is achieved through any subsequent call-off.
- Review procedure
Economic operators should approach the contracting authority in the first instance. However, the only formal remedy is to apply to the courts:
An economic operator that suffers, or is at risk of suffering, loss or damage attributable to a breach of duty under the Public Contracts(Scotland) Regulations 2015 or the Procurement Reform (Scotland) Act 2014, may bring proceedings in the Sheriff Court or the Court of Session.
