Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (SI2015/102), the contracting authority will incorporate a minimum ten (10)calendar day standstill period at the point that information on the award of the Contract is communicated to economic operators. This period allows any

appeal regarding the award of the Contract has not been successfully resolved, then the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (SI 2015/102)provide for aggrieved parties who have

Any such action must be started within thirty (30) days beginning with the date when the aggrieved party first knew or sought to have grounds for starting the proceedings had arisen. The Court may extend the time limited for starting proceedings where the Court considers that there is a good reason for doing so, but not so as to permit proceedings to be started more than three (3)
months after that date. Where the Contract has not been awarded, the Court may order the setting aside of the award decision or order the contracting authority to amend any
