Under the Selection Questionnaire Stage, the Bidder's SQ response is submitted and evaluated in accordance with criteria stated in tender documents. Bidders who do not meet the required financial and qualitative minimum standards of the SQ will automatically fail and their response will not be considered further. The Council and TOWN's intention is to invite the five highest scoring Bidders to participate in the Invitation to Tender. If, there is a tie in scores in the ranking into any of the positions one to five, the Council and TOWN reserve the right to invite more than five Bidders to tender. For clarity, these will be the bidders who have been ranked one to five. If there are fewer than five Bidders who have passed the SQ, the Council and TOWN reserve the right to invite the relevant fewer Bidders to tender or at the discretion of the Council and TOWN, to abandon the procurement. Following the selection of the shortlist, the Council and TOWN will invite shortlisted bidder to submit tenders in accordance with the ITT. All Bidders that have submitted an SQ response will be notified of this shortlisting decision."
