- Published justification
The new arrangement for The Willows involved the Council taking over as lead provider for ten of the forty beds, through the above Better Care Fund (BCF) arrangement. The BCF pooled funding includes the proportionate cost of LCH service provision for the ten beds. Therefore, in awarding this contract to LCH, the Council is to preserve the resource linked to the service provision covering all forty beds. The proposed contract is a technical consequence of LCH being the lead provider for thirty of the beds, whilst LCC is lead provider for the other ten beds.
- Review procedure
"The authority will incorporate a minimum 10 calendar day standstill period at the point information on the award of the contract is communicated to tenderers. This period allows unsuccessful tenderers to seek further information from the contracting authority before the contract is entered into.
Such additional information should be requested from the addressee found in I.1. If an appeal regarding the award of a contract has not been successfully resolved the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (SI 2015 No 102) 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 (within 30 days beginning with the date when the economic operator first knew or ought to have known that grounds for such action had arisen).
Where a contract 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. Following the correct implementation of a10 day standstill period and publication of appropriate notices the court may only award damages once the contract has been entered into".
