"description": "Legal and financial capacity requirements, as part of the conditions of participation, are detailed within the Procurement Specific Questionnaire (PSQ) and as described in Appendix A - ITT Document. Minimum insurance requirements: Employers Liability - PS10m Public Liability - PS5m Financial capacity will be assessed in two stages against a single standard, which is whether a supplier is more likely than not to be trading in four years' time. Stage 1 is a screening assessment using three financial ratios as proxy indicators of financial capacity, based on the published definitions in the GCF Guidance Note on assessing and monitoring economic and financial standing. These metrics assess profitability, cashflow and the ability to repay debt with defined high-risk thresholds applied. A calculator tool is provided to allow suppliers to self-assess. Tenderers that meet the threshold for all three indicators, where none of the metrics result in a high-risk outcome, will automatically be deemed to meet the required standard and pass Stage 1. Tenderers that do not meet all three thresholds will be assessed further in Stage 2. Stage 2 is a detailed assessment for tenderers that do not meet all Stage 1 thresholds. Suppliers will be invited to provide further information on their financial position, which may include management accounts, financial statements, accountant letters and details of connected persons or organisations. Assessments will be carried out by qualified accountants and informed by a wider range of evidence, including external credit reference agencies. A performance bond or parent company guarantee may be accepted as an alternative. Suppliers that fail to provide sufficient information or that remain high risk following the detailed assessment will be deemed to fail this condition of participation. For the full list and details of the conditions of participation, please refer to the Procurement Specific Questionnaire (PSQ) and Appendix A of the ITT document."

"noLotsDivisionRationale": "The core demand from contracting authorities is for comprehensive grounds maintenance services. Sub-dividing the procurement into multiple lots is not considered to represent value for money, as the client-side cost of managing multiple small contracts would be disproportionate to any potential savings achieved. Contracting authorities are operating under significant resource pressures, which limits their ability to manage a number of separate contracts effectively. In addition, multi-lots approach may prevent suppliers from bidding for highly fragmented requirements, where a significant proportion of cost the cost is as much in overheads and getting to site (travel time) as the task in hand. Certain elements of the scope are considered supplementary rather than core requirements, but their inclusion within a single framework may help deliver operational efficiencies. The lotting strategy is not thought to exclude any competent grounds maintenance suppliers as the ability to just bid for one region exists."
