Overview
This regulation requires contracting authorities to inform candidates and tenderers, as soon as possible, of decisions regarding the conclusion of framework agreements, contract awards, or admission to Dynamic Purchasing Systems.
This regulation also requires contracting authorities to inform candidates and tenderers of decisions where a framework agreement has not been concluded, contracts not awarded, Dynamic Purchasing Systems not implemented, or recommencing procedures.
The contracting authority may withhold certain information if its release would impede law enforcement, would be contrary to the public interest, harm the legitimate commercial interests of a supplier, or undermine fair competition.
Unsuccessful candidates must be provided with reasons for rejection of their request to participate within 15 days of the contracting authority receiving a written request.
