VI.4.3) Review procedure
Precise information on deadline(s) for review procedures:
The Authority will notify economic operators who submitted a tender or (where no deselection notification has previously been made)
applied to be selected to tender, of its decision to award the framework agreement which notification will contain among other information,
a summary of the reasons why the economic operators was unsuccessful. The notification will incorporate a ‘standstill period’ of a
minimum of 10 clear calendar days (or a minimum of 15 if the communication method used is not electronic) between the date on which
the Authority dispatches the notice(s) and the date on which the Authority proposes to conclude the relevant framework agreement. The
bringing of court proceedings against the Authority during the standstill period will automatically continue the prohibition on entering into
the framework agreement until the court proceedings are determined, discontinued or disposed of, or the court, by interim order, brings to
an end the prohibition. The remedies that may be awarded by the courts before the framework agreement has been entered into include the
setting aside of the decision to award the framework agreement to the winning tenderer(s). The bringing of court proceedings against the
Authority after the framework agreement has been entered into will not affect the framework agreement unless grounds for the imposition
of special penalties under the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015 can be established. Otherwise, the remedies that may be
awarded by the courts where the framework agreement has been entered into are limited to the award of damages.
