There are a number of questions/statements that have been included in the Contract Notice and within the Qualification Envelope which detail the minimum requirements that Bidders must be able to evidence for participation in this tender and ultimately will be required to evidence prior to any award being made.

Bidders are required to complete a full SPD for each of the entities whose capacity they rely upon
SPD Question 2.D.1 Subcontractors on whose capacity the bidder does not rely
Bidders are required to complete a shortened version of the SPD for each Subcontractor on whose capacity the bidder does not rely on
