These include details and information on: - the background to this procurement, - the goods and services required, - requirements and expectations for quality and contract management, - selection and award criteria (including the relevant evaluation methodologies), - the Terms and Conditions of the anticipated Contract, and - how to participate in this procurement procedure Any questions or clarifications on the content of these additional documents and / or this Contract Notice should be raised using the Ask a Question facility provided with the Contract Notice on the Public Contracts Scotland web portal only and must be received before the stated deadline for questions. This includes any request to modify or vary the terms and conditions of contract. You should use the templates provided for preparing your technical and commercial responses, for providing information on your business and any commercially confidential elements of your tender submission, and for the relevant declarations.

However, these must be uploaded as separate parts to your tender submission and clearly labelled to identify which solution type the response relates to, for evaluation purposes. We reserve the right to reject any tender submission that includes responses to both solution types. Zero Waste Scotland is generally unable and unwilling to respond to questions or requests for clarification received by any other means, including after the deadline for clarifications has passed, and will not enter into negotiation on any terms or conditions of contract after that time. Zero Waste Scotland received three (3) questionnaire responses as the result of the pre-market consultation exercise - from RVM Supply Limited (Infrastructure Supply) and Employability Orkney (Infrastructure Supply and Community Benefits).

Your tender submission may be ruled non-compliant where you fail to follow the instructions and / or use the template documents provided in the procurement documents, unless alternative instructions and / or approaches to preparing a tender response have been agreed and communicated as appropriate through this Contract Notice. Direct approaches to Zero Waste Scotland or any of its management or staff regarding this procurement procedure may be considered an attempt to influence the outcome of the procurement procedure and may lead to your tender submission being disqualified.
