"description": "Tenderers are required to: Complete the SPD; Provide their organisation's \"general\" yearly turnover for the last 2 financial years. The Council will use Dun & Bradstreet (D&B) to assist in its determination of the organisation's financial status and risk. The Council would expect Tenderers to have a minimum D&B Failure Score of 20%, however failure to meet this Failure Score would not necessarily merit a 'FAIL' as the D&B Failure Score is only one factor used by the Council in assessing the acceptability or otherwise of a Tenderer's financial status. The Council will take into account the Tenderer's response to the SPD Part 1V Question 4B.1.1 It is recommended that tenderers review their own D&B Failure Score in advance of submitting their tender submission. If, following this review, Tenderers consider that the D&B Failure Score does not reflect their current financial status, the tenderer should attach a document to this section giving a detailed explanation together with any relevant supporting independent evidence. The Council will review any such information as part of the evaluation of Tenderer's financial status. Where the Tenderer is under no obligation to publish accounts and therefore does not have a D&B Failure Score or equivalent rating, they must provide their audited financial accounts for the previous 2 years as part of their Tender Submission in order that the Council may assess these to determine the suitability of the Tenderer to undertake any Contract of this size. Where a consortium bid is received, the D&B Failure Score of each consortium member shall be assessed. Any accounts or documents submitted must be in English and, if appropriate, certified as accurate translations. Where the Tenderer is a subsidiary of a group but is applying as a separate legal entity and fails to meet the minimum D&B Failure Score (or equivalent) as a company, a parent company or bank guarantee may be required to allow progression in the tender process. The Council will be the sole judge as to whether these are required and it shall notify Tenderers accordingly. The parent company or bank guarantee must meet the minimum financial requirements as assessed by the Council and must be in the form requested by the Council. Comply with the General Conditions of Contract and associated Special Conditions and Service Specification; Confirm if managerial staff and those delivering the service are PVG checked. Insurances: Employers Liability Insurance 5,000,000 FIVE MILLION POUNDS Public Liability Insurance with appropriate extension for administering medication 5,000,000 FIVE MILLION POUNDS Professional Indemnity Insurance - 2,000,000 TWO MILLION POUNDS Statutory Third Party Motor Vehicle Insurance Quality management policy. Community benefits are included in this requirement (SC Ref:661926)",
