The estimated value of the contract is 25,000GDP - 35,000GDP per annum. It is anticipated that there will be 4 Jousting events a year, to be held on 2 weekends. The final number will be determined after consultation with HES's Contract Manager. The events typically take place between the times of 11:00am and 4:30pm typically on a weekend in late June/early July at Linlithgow Palace and late July at Caerlaverock Castle with the programme repeated each day.

The overall aim of this assessment is to ensure, as far as possible, that any potential Supplier will not have financial difficulties that endanger their ability to perform the Contract. If financial information cannot be gained from that source Historic Environment Scotland will request that you provide full audited accounts for the last full financial year. If Suppliers cannot provide any of the assurances as detailed above, and it is determined by HES that your financial strength is not adequate, then your company may not pass the financial evaluation. If you can provide the assurances as detailed above, HES may explore these options with you before determining whether your company can be taken forward in this procurement exercise.
