Review Details
Cartrefi Conwy incorporated a minimum 10 calendar day standstill period at the point information on the award of the framework agreement was communicated to tenderers. This period allowed unsuccessful tenderers to challenge the decision to award the framework agreement before it was executed/signed (as appropriate). The Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (‘Regulations’) provide for aggrieved parties who have been harmed or 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 and within the time limits as defined in the above regulations. Where an agreement has not been entered into the court may order the setting aside of the award decision or order Cartrefi Conwy to amend any document and may award damages. If the framework agreement has been entered into the court has the options to award damages and/or to shorten or order the framework agreement ineffective.
