Summary of the contracting process

West Lothian Council, located at the West Lothian Civic Centre in Livingston, is currently in the award stage of the procurement process for the contract titled "WLC Air Conditioning Replacements, Repairs and Servicing". The procurement, classified under the industry category of 'works', involves providing maintenance for air conditioning units in non-housing properties within the West Lothian area. This contract was awarded on 25th August 2017 for an initial period of three years, with potential extensions of up to 24 months. The procurement method employed was an open procedure, and interested parties were able to submit their tenders electronically until the deadline on 14th August 2017.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses involved in facilities management, particularly those specialising in air conditioning systems. Companies like Alba Facilities Services Ltd, which already secured the contract, are well-positioned to benefit from such opportunities. Suppliers with expertise in servicing systems under an SBCC MTC contract, who can demonstrate compliance with critical criteria like F Gas registration and relevant technical experiences, will find themselves at a competitive advantage in future tenders of a similar nature. As the council indicates a re-tender process after the expiry of contracts, businesses can anticipate ongoing opportunities in this sector.

Please note that 35- (minus) will not be considered as having met this criteria. If a tenderer has a Failure Score of less than 35, the tenderer may be required to submit their last three years accounts. In the event that the tenderer is not required to publish accounts and therefore does not have a Dun & Bradstreet or equivalent rating, tenderers should be able to provide financial accounts when requested. The council will then conduct an analysis of the accounts to ensure that there is no significant financial risk. Please note that if you intend on attaching 2 years accounts, these must include financial data over a 3 year period. It is recommended that candidates review their own Dun & Bradstreet Score in advance of submitting their tender. If following this review tenderers consider that the Dun & Bradstreet Score does not reflect their current financial status, details of this should be provided, complete with evidence of a good high street credit rating (the equivalent of Dun & Bradstreet score 35) from a recognised credit referencing agency. The council will review any such information as part of the evaluation of Tenderer's financial status. In the event that a firm does not meet the financial criteria for consideration but has a parent company that does, the firm may still be eligible for consideration where their Tender Submission is supported by a Parent Company Guarantee. Should after review of the financial evaluation the tenderer fail, then the tender submission may be rejected.",
