VI.4.3) Review procedure
Precise information on deadline(s) for review procedures:
Crescent Purchasing Consortium incorporated a minimum 10-day standstill period at the point information on the award of contract was communicated to tenderers. The standstill period expired without receipt of any formalchallenge to the award.
Should an appeal regarding the award of the contract be made, the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 provide for the aggrieved parties who have been harmed or who are at risk of harm by the breach of the rules to take action in the High Court (England, Wales and Northern Ireland). Any action must be generally brought within 3 months. If a declaration of ineffectiveness is sought, any such action must be brought within 30 days where the Contracting Authority has communicated the award of the contract and a summary of reasons to tenderers,or otherwise within 6 months of the contract being entered into. Where a contract has not be enentered 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 Contract has been entered into the Court may, depending on the circumstances, award damages, make a declaration of ineffectiveness, order the Contracting Authority to pay a fine, and/or order that the duration of the contract be shortened. The purpose of the standstill period referred to above was to allow the parties to apply to the Courts to set aside the award decision before the contract was entered into.
