32. Where the awarding process includes quality evaluation, the public body informs each tenderer of the results of the tender quality evaluation for each of the stages including such evaluation in which the tenderer has participated. Such communication takes place within 15 days of awarding the contract or, in the case of sections 18 and 20, at the time an invitation to participate in the next stage is sent to the selected tenderers.
If Schedule 1 applies, the particulars sent to tenderers are(1) confirmation that their tender was accepted or not; and
(2) as the case may be, the names of the tenderers qualified for the next stage or the successful tenderer’s name and tendered price.
If Schedule 2 applies, the particulars sent to tenderers are(1) confirmation that their tender was accepted or not;
(2) their quality score and, if applicable, adjusted price and rank according to the adjusted prices; and
(3) as the case may be, the names of the tenderers qualified for the next stage or the successful tenderer’s name, quality score, tendered price and the resulting adjusted price.
In addition, on the written request of a tenderer sent within 30 days after the communication made under the first paragraph, the public body must present to the tenderer the results of the tender evaluation for each criterion used to evaluate quality, and briefly set out the reasons justifying the fact that the tender was not accepted. That feedback must be provided, as the case may be, within 30 days after the date of receipt of the tenderer’s request if the request was sent after the awarding of the contract, or within 30 days after the awarding of the contract if the request was sent before that date.
