Within such reports, the risk of business failure is expressed as a score ranging from 1 -100. In the event that a company is determined to have a risk failure rating of below 30 i.e. that the company is considered to have a high risk of business failure, the submission will not be considered further. Where the score is 30+ the Council will consider all information available from the report. Where you are not registered on credit safe e.g. charitable organisations, new start companies and Sole Traders you are to submit 2 years financial accounts, including Profit & Loss Statement and Balance Sheet for consideration. It should be noted that in addition to the above checks the Council reserves the right at its own discretion to seek such other information from the Applicant in accordance with Regulation 61(7) or Regulation 61(8) of the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015 to determine the Applicant's economic and financial standing. The final decision on bidder inclusion rests with the Council. The successful tender will be expected to maintain a Creditsafe level of 30+ throughout the contract period. The offer of any extension to the contract will be dependent on an acceptable crediting rating of 30+. The council reserve the right to terminate the contract should the financial standing decline to an unacceptable level. Tenderers should be aware that any outstanding County Court Judgements will have a detrimental effect on the rating held by Credit Safe and it is your responsibility to ensure that the information held by Credit Safe is accurate and up to date - failure to do so will result in rejection of your submission. The Council also may use the SPD (Scotland) questions under Part IV. Section B to assess bidders' financial standing. If used, further information can be found in the Contract Notice.

It should be noted that the maximum business that can be passed to a sub-contractor or members of a consortia under this contract cannot be more than 50% of their annual turnover. The council reserves the right to request evidence of the other SPD areas in relation to the selection criteria of suitability, economic and financial standing and quality assurance schemes and environmental management standards. For the avoidance of doubt where a subcontractor or participants of a group who meet the compulsory exclusions grounds shall be replaced at the request of the Council and the Council may request the replacement where the discretionary exclusion grounds are met."
