- Quality: 70

Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.

ESPD Questions 3A – 3C have been identified as mandatory exclusion grounds and ESPD Questions 3D have been identified as discretionary exclusion grounds. All the exclusion grounds will be assessed on a PASS/FAIL basis. For the mandatory exclusion grounds a bid will be excluded where the bidder fails to provide either a positive response or to provide details to the satisfaction of the Council of the self cleansing measures undertaken. For the discretionary exclusion grounds a bid may be excluded where the bidder fails to provide either a positive response or if the Council is not satisfied as to the self cleansing measures undertaken. ESPD Questions 3A.1 to 3A.8 Serious and Organised Crime – Information Sharing Protocol It is a requirement of this tender that the bidder recommended for award completes and submits, when requested to by the Council, the Serious and Organised Crime – Information Sharing Protocol form for evaluation prior to any award being made. Declarations and Certificates In an open tendering procedure prior to any award being made the successful bidder will provide the undernoted certificates, declarations and/or completed questionnaires to evidence their compliance with the relevant questions within the Qualification Envelope.
