Tenderers are encouraged to review their financial performance on Creditsafe and read information about how that data is collected and used prior to submitting a tender. Information and the opportunity to run a free report can be found at http://www.creditsafe.com/products/business-credit-reports/ If a tenderer does not agree with the credit rating it has been given by Creditsafe it can provide supporting evidence to demonstrate its current position and this will be taken into account when the financial standing is being assessed. If a tenderer is not listed on Creditsafe, for whatever reason, then it may be asked to submit equivalent accounts to enable the required assessment of financial standing to be carried out. Tenderers should have a Creditsafe credit rating of 30 or higher to demonstrate satisfactory financial standing. If a tenderer has a lower credit rating score and no evidence to support a stable or improved financial standing then the tender may be rejected. Minimum level(s) of standards required: 4B.5.1 Employer's (Compulsory)Liability Insurance = 5 000 000 GBP 4B.5.2 Public Liability Insurance = 5 000 000 GBP 4B.6 Tenderers should have a Creditsafe credit rating of 30 or higher to demonstrate satisfactory financial standing."
