The response should include justification on why the experience is relevant and details for a reference person that the Council can contact; or * Where the Supplier is relying on an Associated Person to meet the technical ability, there are at least two relevant contract examples of a similar nature and value to this contract opportunity. The examples should cover both the Supplier and the Associated Person, or one example relating to the Supplier's experience and one relating to the Associated Person's; or * For consortium bids involving more than two parties, three relevant contract examples of a similar nature and value to this contract opportunity should be provided covering the principal members of the consortium. Where this is not possible (e.g. if the consortium is newly formed or a special purpose vehicle is to be created for the contract), three separate examples should be provided between the principal member(s) of the proposed consortium or members of the special purpose vehicle or sub-contractors (three examples are not required from each member)."
