Review and risk notes
Review procedure

PaLS 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: This procurement is a joint procedure and Contract award is by a Central Purchasing Body. This Contract is not a joint Contract, it is a Central Purchasing Body Contract operated by Business Services Organisation Procurement and Logistics Service on behalf of the participants listed in Section I. The Contracting Authority has identified the Most Economically Advantageous Tender(s) (MEAT) on the basis of the “lowest price/cost” submission(s). Compliance with all elements of the Specification and all other requirements as listed in the Tender documentation has been demonstrated. Details of the evaluation process incorporating price and compliance were provided as part of the Tender Evaluation Methodology and Marking Scheme (TEMMS) (SS20b).
