Award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition
Review Details
An economic operator that suffers or risks suffering loss or damage attributable to a breach of duty under Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015 may bring proceedings in the Sheriff Court or Court of Session. In general, a claim for an ineffectiveness order must be made within 10 days of the date on which the VEAT Notice is published in the Find a Tender Service.
Why this procedure was chosen
Due to the nature and scale of this requirement installations of both hardware and software due to a change of supplier would oblige the contracting authority to acquire suppliers having different technical characteristics which would result in incompatibility and disproportionate technical difficulties in operation and maintenance due the required integration with nine different platforms.
