six.4.3) Review procedure
Precise information on deadline(s) for review procedures
Precise information on deadline(s) for review procedures: where necessary in order to
comply with the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 this authority will incorporate a minimum
10 calendar day standstill period at the point information on the award of the contract is
communicated to tenderers. This period allows unsuccessful tenderers to seek further
debriefing from the contracting authority before the contract is entered into. Such additional
information should be requested from the addressee found in 1.1). If an appeal regarding the
award of a contract has not been successfully resolved the (for Public Sector)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). Any such action must be brought promptly
(generally within 30 days beginning with the date when the tenderer first knew or ought to
have known that the grounds for starting the proceedings had arisen). Where a contract has
not been entered into the court may order the setting aside of the award decision or order
the authority to amend any document and may award damages. If the contract has been
entered into the court may only award damages. Following the 10 day standstill period, if no
further debriefing has been requested, the court may only award damages once the contract
has been entered into.
