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. The issue of a.. Notice of Unsatisfactory Performance will result in the contractor being excluded from all. procurement competitions being undertaken.. by Centres of Procurement Expertise on behalf of bodies covered by the Northern Ireland. Procurement Policy for a period. of. twelve.. months from the date of issue of the Notice. This contract will not be awarded in Lots as a single supplier is required.",
