Reg. 70 (PCR 2015)
Conditions for performance of contracts
In: Plan > Strategy and plan
Overview
This regulation enables contracting authorities to incorporate special conditions relating to the performance of a contract, which may include economic, innovation, environmental, social or employment considerations. Such conditions must be linked to the subject-matter of the contract and must be indicated in the contract notice or in the procurement documents.
Objective at this commercial stage
When planning a procurement, contracting authorities should consider whether it would be appropriate to introduce special conditions relating to contract performance.
Key considerations at this commercial stage
Contracting authorities should:
- ensure that they consider the appropriateness of incorporating contract performance conditions, by reference to the subject-matter of the contract
- ensure that any contract performance conditions are linked to the subject-matter of the contract and do not have the effect of causing discrimination to suppliers or unfairly narrowing competition.
Legal framework
There is no direct equivalent section in the Procurement Act 2023
