Lot Information

Lot 1

Food Standards Scotland (FSS) is the public sector food body for Scotland. It was established by the Food (Scotland) Act 2015 as a non-ministerial office, part of the Scottish Administration, working alongside, but separate from, the Scottish Government. FSS became independent from the UK Food Standards Agency on 1 April 2015. Our primary concern is consumer protection - making sure that food is safe to eat: ensuring consumers know what they are eating and improving nutrition. With that in mind, we have approximately 80 FSS personnel and around 80 contract staff working in abattoirs and cutting plants throughout Scotland ensuring compliance within the Meat Sector. The Service Provider will be required to supply a Work Wear and Laundry service for only FSS personnel (not the contract staff) to carry out their duties in a hygienic and safe manner throughout Scotland. The Requirement The Service Provider shall provide the following services:- - Provision of hired protective work wear - Fully managed collection and drop off service throughout the Scottish network of FSS designated premises - Fully managed Laundry service of the hired protective work wear throughout the whole year, including all Scottish bank holiday periods - Repair/alteration service - Managed administration service - Customer helpline/support Additional information: Economic Operators may be excluded from this competition if they are in any of the situations referred to in Regulation 58 of the Public Contract (Scotland) Regulations 2015.

    "description": "Maximum Total Contract Value 120,000.00 GBP Evaluation Process: SPD (Selection Stage) The purpose of the Selection Stage is to allow Food Standards Scotland to assess tenderers' suitability, capacity and capability to provide the Services required under the proposed Contract. Tenderers must submit responses to each question contained in the SPD Form. In assessing responses to the SPD, a 'Pass/Fail' score will be awarded to each question. Only tenders that achieve a 'Pass' for all questions in the SPD will proceed to the Quality and Price Analysis. Selection criteria - Question methodology used will be pass/fail. Award Criteria - Should any question subject to the 'Evaluation Criteria for Award Stage', marked as 'M', receive a moderated score of less than '2 - Acceptable' the tender will not be subject to Price Analysis and a score of 0 (zero) will be awarded in respect of the Price Score. As a result, the tender will not be considered further. Award Criteria questions can be found in the ITT together with the weightings. The Award scoring methodology will be as follows; 0 - Unacceptable -Nil or inadequate response. Fails to demonstrate an ability to meet the requirement. 1 -Poor - Response is partially relevant but generally poor. The response addresses some elements of the requirement but contains insufficient/limited detail or explanation to demonstrate how the requirement will be fulfilled. 2 - Acceptable - Response is relevant and acceptable. The response addresses a broad understanding of the requirement but may lack details on how the requirement will be fulfilled in certain areas. 3 - Good - Response is relevant and good. The response is sufficiently detailed to demonstrate a good understanding and provides details on how the requirements will be fulfilled. 4 - Excellent - Response is completely relevant and excellent overall. The response is comprehensive, unambiguous and demonstrates a thorough understanding of the requirement and provides details of how the requirement will be met in full. (SC Ref:703016)",

The bringing of court proceedings during the standstill period will automatically continue the prohibition on entering into the contract until court proceedings are determined, discounted or disposed of, or the court, by interim order, brings to an end the prohibition. The remedies that may be awarded by the courts before the contract has been entered include the setting aside of the decision to award the contract to the winning tenderer. The bringing of court proceedings against the Contracting Authority after the contract has been entered into will not affect the contract unless grounds for the imposition of special penalties under the Public Contract (Scotland) Regulations 2015 can be established. Otherwise the remedies that may be awarded by the courts where the contract has been entered into are limited to the award of damages. Economic operators are entitled to write to the Contracting Authority after receipt of the notification should they require further clarification. The Contracting Authority will respond within 15 days of such a written request, but it should be noted that receipt by the Contracting Authority of such request during the standstill period may not prevent the Contracting Authority from awarding the contract following the expiry of the standstill period. An economic operator that suffers or risks suffering loss or damage attributable to a breach of duty under the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015 may bring proceedings in the Sheriff Court or Court of Session."
