Examples must be from within the last three (3) years. In addition, please submit references for each example used. SPD 4C10: Economic operators must specify the proportion of the contract that they intend to subcontract within the Mandatory Requirements table provided. Where the economic operator is relying on other parties to deliver this contract this must be declared within the Single Procurement Document (SPD). For example as part of a consortium or is using a sub-contractor, a separate SPD response will be required from each party being relied on. These parties should complete the exclusion criteria section of the SPD and whichever selection questions, the main economic operator is relying on them for. This must include evidence and completion of any requested documents against each section. If the economic operator is using a sub-contractor but not relying on them to meet the selection criteria, each sub-contractor should complete an SPD response. In this instance, they will only need to complete the exclusion criteria. The responses will be evaluated alongside the main economic operator SPD response. Where a party fails on exclusion criteria, the main economic operator must replace them. By sub-contracting, the main economic operator assumes full responsibility for any work conducted by the subcontractor as part of this contract and must ensure that the said sub-contractor(s) adhere to all contractual requirements within the Tender documentation. Where the successful contractor has not relied on other parties to deliver this contract but due to unforeseen circumstance there is a future need to, then the Board will require a written notice for approval. Proposed subcontractors will be required to follow this same process as mentioned above to be deemed suitable.",
