  • Technical & professional ability

    Please refer to Document One - Invitation to Tender within the Buyer's Attachment area of the portal within PCST for further details.

    Bidders must fully complete the attached template for question 4C1.2 within the Qualification envelope within PCST portal. A response is required for each lot you are bidding for.

    Bidders must provide response for questions 4C.9 (Equipment) within the Qualification envelope within PCST portal. A response is required for each lot you are bidding for.

    4C1.2 - Example 1 = 60 percent

    4C.9 - Response = 40 percent

    Total Section = 100 percent

    Bidder must score a minimum threshold of 60 percent across both questions and or any bidder who fails to achieve the minimum points score for any question will be disqualified.

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 60 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 6 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.
  • “Maintenance and Repair of Plant and Vehicle Lifting Equipment Framework” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 12 suppliers, not a single contract.

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

eligible economic operator can bring an action in the Sheriff Court or the Court of Session where as a consequence of a breach by the

the remedies that are available to the courts are detailed in the Regulations. Economic Operators can write to the Council seeking further

clarification on the notice, to which the Council must respond within 15 days. Economic Operators should be mindful to seek their own
