Precise information on deadline(s) for review procedures

Precise information on deadline(s) for review procedures:

The PHSO will incorporate a minimum 10 calendar day standstill period at

the point information on the award of the contract/framework is

communicated to tenderers. This period allows unsuccessful tenderers to

seek further debriefing from the contracting authority before the contract

commences. Applicants have two working days from notification of the

award decision to request additional debriefing and that information has to

be provided a minimum of 3 working days before the expiry of the

standstill period. If an appeal regarding the award of the contract has not

been successfully resolved, the Public Contracts Regulations 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 (generally within 3

months). Where a contract has not been entered into the Court may order

the setting aside of the award decision or order the contracting authority

to amend any document and may award damages. If the contract has been

entered into, The Court may only award damages.
