Contractors are required to submit 2 years audited accounts including profit and loss statements, or equivalent.
Where audited accounts are unavailable, Tenderers must provide a signed financial statement outlining the current financial standing of the business and demonstrating its capacity to deliver the Contract. This should include details of annual turnover, financial resources, and confirmation that adequate funds are available to support contract delivery.
Minimum: Information provided will be assessed on a Pass/Fail basis, where: Pass = meets requirements as stated in Contract Notice Fail = does not meet requirements as stated in Contract Notice
