The applicant is requested to clearly identify those parts of the request to participate (and any subsequent bid) containing company/business secrets. If this does not happen, the public procurement tribunal will assume consent to inspect the documents as required in the case of carrying out a review procedure (Section 165 (3) Act against Restraints of Competition (Competition Act - GWB)). As the awarding authority, FAIR is required to provide the public procurement tribunal with immediate access to the files when a review procedure is initiated (Section 163 (2) sentence 3 GWB).
Applicants/bidders have the right to demand that the Contracting authority comply with the provisions on the award procedure protecting bidders (Section 97 (6) GWB). Applicants/bidders with an interest in the public contract who believe their rights have been violated by non-compliance with the provisions governing the awarding of public contracts, must raise an objection about the violation to FAIR within ten calendar days (Section 160 (3) sentence 1 no. 1 GWB).
Violations known from the tender notice or tender documents must be claimed vis-a-vis FAIR before the time limit given for submission of applications (offers) (Section 160 (3) 1 No. 2 - 3 GWB).
