"description": "Qualification requirements are detailed within the sourcing portal including: Southern Water will use the Achilles Utilities Vendor Database (UVDB) to provide confirmation of certain capabilities and standards - including Health and Safety, Environmental and Corporate Social Responsibility. Further information on the UVDB is available at https://www.achilles.com/community/uvdb/ Southern Water is required by its investors to ensure that any key supplier has good economic and financial standing. A CreditSafe check will be used for this purpose, together with other background checks if needed, at the discretion of the Client. A Tenderer may be rejected if the recommended annual contract value for their company on CreditSafe is below the proposed annual value of the contract. The annual value of the contract is calculated by dividing the estimated total value by the initial period. Where a framework is tendered, the annual value would also be divided by the number of Service Providers expected to be appointed. If a bidder fails this test, and only publishes abridged accounts, Southern Water may allow the bidder to proceed. This would be on the basis of providing turnover data that satisfies the annual contract value accounting for less than a half of their annual turnover; and do not have an adverse risk score on CreditSafe. Alternatively, a Parent Company Guarantee or bank Guarantee may be accepted, however it would need to fulfil the above.",
