The Authority will undertake a Company Financial Assessment for each Tenderer using Dun & Bradstreet (D&B) Failure Risk Score for the Tenderer and any consortia or reliance members, as detailed in the minimum level(s) of standards required below. Details of the D&B \"A Guide to Dun & Bradstreet's Predictive Indicators\" - can be found using the http address below: https://www.dnb.co.uk/about-us/our-analytics/predictors-scores-ratings/scores-ratings.html There must be no qualification or contra-indication from any evidence provided in support of the Tenderers economic and financial standing. The Authority has the right to request copies of financial accounts and insurance certificates which are not held electronically. Minimum level(s) of standards required: If the D&B Failure Risk Score is 51 or more you will receive a pass for this assessment. If the D&B Failure Risk Score is less than 51 or no D&B Risk Failure score is available the Authority will contact the Tenderer and seek further information. The Authority will then use this further information to assess the Tenderer's level of failure risk. In the event that the Tenderer does not meet the financial criteria above, they may still be considered via some form of other assurance e.g. Parent Company Guarantee (providing parent has a failure risk score of 51 or more) or a performance bond. If this assessment identifies an unmanageable risk (i.e. it is unacceptable) the Tenderer will fail this assessment. *Note to Tenderers* There is no action for Tenderers to undertake regarding company Financial Assessment. The Authority will undertake the action as detailed above. It is a requirement of this framework agreement that bidders hold, or can commit to obtain prior to commencement of any subsequently awarded contract, the types of and levels of insurance, as a minimum, indicated below: Employer's (Compulsory) Liability Insurance = in accordance with any legal obligation for the time being in force Public Liability Insurance = 2.5 million GBP Professional Indemnity Insurance = 1 million GBP The Authority has the right to request copies of financial accounts and insurance certificates which are not held electronically.",

This will include confirmation that they have the systems in place to pay subcontractors through the supply chain promptly and effectively, and provide evidence when requested of: a) their standard payment terms b) >=95% of all supply chain invoices being paid on time (in accordance with the terms of contract) in the last financial year If the bidder is unable to confirm (b) they must provide an improvement plan, signed by their Director, which improves the payment performance.
