Pre-qualification & selection criteria (PQQ)2
  • Economic & financial standing

    Financial references and internal credit checks will be undertaken to analyse your organisation’s financial position and determine the level of risk it would represent to the authority, having regard to the contract requirement and value, criticality and the nature of the market. The assessment of risk is based on sound business judgement rather than just a mechanistic application of financial formulae. If the authority deems the financial position of the organisation to be acceptable, the threshold is passed. If the threshold is not passed, then the Authority will disqualify the organisation, and the organisation will be rejected from the procurement process. Depending on timescales, further financial checks may be carried out by the authority between receipt of tenders and contract award which may impact on the contract award decision.

  • Technical & professional ability

    Provide details of two contracts to meet conditions of participation relating to technical ability set out in the relevant notice or procurement documents, in any combination from either the public or private sectors (which may include samples of grant-funded work).

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 45 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 4.5 points. Quality carries 55 of 100: the paper moves it further than the discount.
  • “Supply and delivery of waste bins.” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, not a single contract, and call-offs are awarded directly: getting appointed is the whole game.

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