Review Details

This period allows unsuccessful tenderers to challenge the decision to award a Framework before a Contract is 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 a Framework has not been entered into the court may order the setting aside of the award decision or order the contracting authority to amend any document and may award damages. If the Framework has been entered into the court has the options to award damages and/or to shorten or order the Contract ineffective.
