DEVCO organisations incorporated a standstill period at the point information on the award of the contract was communicated to tenderers.

The standstill period was for a minimum of 10 calendar days, which provided time for unsuccessful tenderers to challenge the award decision before the contract was entered into. The Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (SI 2015 No 102) 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).
