Part III: Section A, B, C & D Economic operators may be excluded from this competition if they are in any of the situations referred to in regulation 58 of The Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015 [for above OJEU threshold)/8 and 9 of the Procurement (Scotland) Regulations 2016 (below OJEU threshold). Part IV: Selection criteria B: Economic and financial standing - Question 4B.1 - Tenderers are required to have a minimum \"general\" annual turnover for the last two financial years. For lot 1 - GBP 1,891,478; for lot 2 - GBP 2,374,763; for lot 3 - GBP 1,924,808; for lot 4 - GBP 375,000; for lot 5 - GBP 2,349,765; and for lot 6 - GBP 290,000. Where a Tenderer does not have an annual turnover of this value, the Council may exclude the Tenderer from the competition or may apply discretion seeking supporting evidence to determine the Tenderer's suitability to proceed in the competition. Part IV: Selection criteria B: Economic and financial standing - Question 4B.4 Tenderers will be required provide the following information in response to 4B.4: For lots 1, 2, 3 and 5: Current ratio for Current Year: >1.20 Current ratio for Prior Year: >1.20 For lot 4: Current ratio for Current Year: >1.15 Current ratio for Prior Year: >1.15 For lot 6: Current ratio for Current Year: >1.10 Current ratio for Prior Year: >1.10 The formula for calculating a Tenderer's current ratio is current assets divided by current liabilities. The acceptable range for each financial ratio is greater than the respective ratios above. Where a Tenderer's current ratio is less than the acceptable value, the Council may exclude the Tenderer from the competition or may apply discretion seeking supporting evidence to determine the Tenderer's suitability to proceed in the competition. CONTRACT SPECIFIC MANDATORY CRITERIA Part IV: Selection criteria - D: Quality Assurance Schemes & Environmental Management - Question 4D.1 - It is a mandatory requirement that Tendering Organisations with more than 5 employees have in place a Health & Safety Policy which is approved at a senior level within the Organisation and is reviewed regularly. Bidders should confirm that this condition has been met within the response to this question. Where a Bidder does not have a Health & Safety Policy and is required to do so, the Council may exclude the Bidder from the competition. (SC Ref:609096)",
