  • Suitability

    Tenderers must be registered with the appropriate financial body ie The Financial Conduct Authority and/or the Prudential Regulation Authority part of the Bank of England.

  • Economic & financial standing

    Minimum level(s) of standards required:

    The Council will use a Dun & Bradstreet (D&B) Failure Score of 20 or above.

    It is recommended that Tenderer’s review their own D&B Failure Score in advance of submitting their SPD Submission.

    If, following this review the Tenderer considers that the D&B Failure Score does not reflect their current financial status; the Tenderer should give an explanation within the SPD Submission, together with any relevant supporting independent evidence i.e. audited accounts.

    Where the Tenderer is under no obligation to publish accounts and therefore does not have a D&B Failure Score, they must provide their audited financial accounts for the previous 2 years as part of their SPD Submission in order that the Council may assess these to determine the suitability of the Tenderer to undertake a contract of this size.
