Financial Standing
The Council shall commission an independent third party Risk Report from Experian using the Company Registration number supplied by the Tenderer. Any Tenderer who does not meet the minimum threshold of a Commercial Delphi Score of 25 out of 100 will have their
submission regarded as a “Fail” and will not be considered further. Where a Tenderer receives a Commercial Delphi Score of between 25 - 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 Experian is current and accurate when submitting their Tender. The Council will not enter into discussions with Tenderers who fail to ensure that their Experian scores are accurate by the due submission date.
