If the response is marked below '2 - Acceptable' the bid may be set aside and may take no further part in the competition: 0 Unacceptable - Nil or inadequate response. Fails to demonstrate previous experience/capacity/capability relevant to this criterion. 1 Poor - Poor. Response is partially relevant but generally poor. The response shows some elements of relevance to the criterion but contains insufficient/limited detail or explanation to demonstrate previous relevant experience/capacity/capability. 2 Acceptable - Response is relevant and acceptable. The response demonstrates broad previous experience, knowledge and skills/capacity/capability but may lack in some aspects of similarity e.g. previous experience, knowledge or skills may not be of a similar nature. 3 Good - Response is relevant and good. The response is sufficiently detailed to demonstrate a good amount of experience, knowledge or skills/capacity/capability relevant to providing similar services to similar clients. 4 Excellent - Response is completely relevant and excellent overall. The response is comprehensive, unambiguous and demonstrates thorough experience, knowledge or skills/capacity/capability relevant to providing similar services to similar clients. The ITT Award Criteria is fully detailed within the ITT 'Award Criteria Tender Response Form'. All scored questions will be evaluated in accordance with the following scoring methodology: 0 Unacceptable - Nil or inadequate response. Fails to demonstrate an ability to meet the requirement. 1 Poor - Response is partially relevant but generally poor. The response addresses some elements of the requirement but contains insufficient/limited detail or explanation to demonstrate how the requirement will be fulfilled. 2 Acceptable - Response is relevant and acceptable. The response addresses a broad understanding of the requirement but may lack details on how the requirement will be fulfilled in certain areas. 3 Good - Response is relevant and good. The response is sufficiently detailed to demonstrate a good understanding and provides details on how the requirements will be fulfilled. 4 Excellent - Response is completely relevant and excellent overall. The response is comprehensive, unambiguous and demonstrates a thorough understanding of the requirement and provides details of how the requirement will be met in full. A scored question on Community Benefits was not considered to be relative and/or proportionate for this requirement, however the 'Award Criteria Tender Response Form' contained within the ITT does include a non-scoring Sustainability/Community Benefits question. A scored question on Fair Work Practices has been included within the 'Award Criteria Tender Response Form' and non-scoring questions have been included on Living Wage and the Scottish Business Pledge. Consideration has been given to whether it is appropriate to divide this Framework into lots however, for this requirement it has been determined that lotting would not be suitable as: a) It would make the execution of the Framework excessively technically difficult. b) The need to co-ordinate the different Contractors for the lots could risk undermining the proper execution of the Framework.
