It is recommended that Tenderer's review their own D&B Failure Score in advance of submitting their ESPD Submission. If, following this review the Tenderer considers that the D&B Failure Score does not reflect their current financial status; the Tenderer should give an explanation within the ESPD Submission, together with any relevant supporting independent evidence i.e. audited accounts. Where the Tenderer is under no obligation to publish accounts and therefore does not have a D&B Failure Score, they must provide their audited financial accounts for the previous 2 years as part of their ESPD Submission in order that the Council may assess these to determine the suitability of the Tenderer to undertake a contract of this size. Where a consortium bid is received, the D&B Failure Score of each consortium member shall be assessed. The Council may undertake supplementary investigations to establish if the D&B failure score is a reflection of the current financial stability of the Tenderer; the outcome of such investigations will influence if a Tenderer is deemed to meet the minimum requirements to pass this bid selection stage in terms of their financial stability for the purposes of this contract. The Tenderer will be notified if supplementary investigations into the financial stability are being undertaken. Where the Tenderer intends to sub-contract more than 25% of any Contract value to a single sub-contractor, the Tenderer must provide a D&B comprehensive report on the sub-contractor. The Council reserves the right to request one copy of all sub-contractors last 2 financial years' audited accounts and details of significant changes since the last financial year end. The Council also reserves the right to reject the use of sub-contractors in relation to the Contract where they fail to meet the Council's minimum financial criteria of all sub-contractor last 2 financial years' audited accounts and details of significant changes since the last financial year end.
