Review Details
The University incorporated a minimum 10 calendar days standstill period at the point information on award of the contract was communicated to all tenderers. The standstill period provided time for unsuccessful tenderers to challenge the award decision before the contract was entered into. The Public Contracts 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 (Northern Ireland).

Selection criteria

Description
Pre-Qualification Questionnaire It is anticipated that, subject to a sufficient number of compliant and satisfactory responses being received, a maximum of five (5) Economic Operators plus ties (if applicable and as detailed further below) who meet the requirements stated in the PQQ Documentation and: who receive a total overall weighted score of 50 or more for their response to PQQ - Part E (in relation to technical and professional ability); and who achieve the five highest total overall weighted scores for their responses to PQQ Part E (in accordance with section 5.4 of the PQQ Documentation) will be invited to submit tenders. Where there is a tie for a shortlisted place, then all tied Economic Operators in that tied position will be invited to tender. A tie is deemed to occur where two or more Economic operators have identical scores or a score within 1 mark (out of a score of 100). For example, if two Economic Operators are tied in fourth place, both Economic Operators would be shortlisted, and the fifth placed Economic Operator would not be shortlisted. Notwithstanding that the University anticipates selecting a maximum of five Economic Operators to progress to the tendering stage, it reserves the right to select more or less.
