Precise information on deadline(s) for lodging appeals: This authority will incorporate a minimum 10 calendar day standstill period at the point information on the award of the contract is communicated to Economic Operators. This period allows unsuccessful Economic Operators to seek further debriefing from the contracting authority before any framework agreement is entered into. Economic Operators have 2 working days from notification of the award decision to request additional debriefing and that information has to be provided a minimum of 3 working days before expiry of the standstill period. Such additional information should be requested from the address in section I.1. If an appeal regarding the award of a framework agreement has not been successfully resolved the (for PublicSector) Public Contracts Regulations 2006 (SI 2006 No 5) 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 (England, Wales and Northern Ireland). Any such action must be brought promptly (generally within 3 months). Where a framework agreement has not been entered into the court may order the setting aside of the award decision or order the authority to amend any document and may award damages.
If the framework agreement has been entered into the court may only award damages.
