Other Information

** PREVIEW NOTICE, please check Find a Tender for full details. ** The successful contractor’s performance on the contract will be regularly monitored in line with the tender documentation.

If, after the specified time, they still. fail to reach satisfactory levels of contract performance, the matter will be escalated to senior management in CPD for further action. If. this occurs and their performance still does not improve to satisfactory levels within the specified period, it may be regarded as an act of. grave professional misconduct and they may be issued with a Notice of Unsatisfactory Performance and the contract may be terminated..
