- Suitability
Tenderers must confirm that they are registered as a Waste Carrier with the Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA). Tenderers shall provide the SEPA Waste Carrier registration number within the SPD.
- Economic & financial standing
The Council shall commission an independent third party business credit report from Creditsafe Business Solutions Ltd using the Company Registration number supplied by the Tenderer. Any Tenderer who does not meet the minimum threshold of a Credit Score of 30 out of 100 will have their submission regarded as a “Fail” and will not be considered further. Where a Tenderer receives a Credit Score of between 30-50 out of 100, the Council reserves the right to request further financial information to determine the risk to the Council. In the event that such additional measures are requested, the Council shall, in its sole discretion, determine the terms of those measures that it deems as acceptable. If Tenderers cannot provide measures to the satisfaction of the Council then their submission may be rejected.
Risk or Credit reports from other agencies will not be considered.
It is the Tenderers responsibility to ensure that all information held by Creditsafe Business Solutions Ltd is current and accurate when submitting their Tender. The Council will not enter into discussions with Tenderers who fail to ensure that their Creditsafe Business Solutions Ltd scores are accurate by the due submission date.

Selection criteria as stated in the procurement documents
- Price carries 80 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 8 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
