If an appeal regarding the award of a contract has not been successfully resolved, the Public Contracts (Scotland) regulations 2006 provide for aggrieved parties who have been harmed or who are at risk from harm by breach of the rules to take action in the Sherriff Court or Court of Session. Any such action must be brought promptly and within 3 months.
