"description": "SPT will use Dun and Bradstreet's DBAi financial reporting system to assess the financial stability of bidders. Bidders with a Failure Score of 51 or above on the DBAi system will be deemed to have evidenced satisfactory financial stability. Bidders must confirm within their response to the relevant question within the Qualification Envelope, the value of their D&B Failure Score. In the event that the bidder does not have a Dun and Bradstreet rating or they consider that the rating has been adversely affected by factors which they can offer mitigating evidence for, we will use the following ratios to evaluate a bidder's financial status. Bidders must confirm within their response to the relevant question within the Qualification Envelope, the name and value of the 3 financial ratios listed below as taken from their own Accounts. 1 Profitability - this is taken as profit after tax but before dividends and minority interests. If a company makes a profit then it is a pass for this ratio; 2 Liquidity - this value is calculated as current assets less stock and work in progress, divided by current liabilities. If the answer is greater than or equal to one then it is a pass for this ratio; 3 Gearing - this value is calculated as the total external secured borrowing (short term and long term) divided by shareholder funds expressed as a percentage. If the answer is less than or equal to 100% it is considered a pass for this ratio. Where 2 out of the 3 ratios cannot be met, we may then take account of other factors (including those listed below) when assessing financial viability and the risk to the organisation, providing that the Bidder can submit acceptable evidence to substantiate any of the mitigating criteria. The following list is not exhaustive and other criteria may be considered where proposed: Would the bidder have passed the checks if prior year accounts had been used? Were any of the poor ratio appraisal outcomes \"marginal\"? Does the bidder operate in a market which, traditionally, requires lower liquidity or higher debt finance? Does the bidder have sufficient reserves to sustain losses for a number of years? Does the bidder have a healthy cashflow? Is the bidder profitable enough to finance the interest on its debt? Is most of the bidder's debt owed to group companies? Is the bidder's debt due to be repaid over a number of years, and affordable? Have the bidder's results been adversely affected by \"one off costs\" and / or \"one off accounting treatments\"? Do the bidder's auditors (where applicable) consider it to be a \"going concern\"? Can and will the bidder provide a Parent Company Guarantee?Is the bidder the single supplier/source of the Goods/Works/Services in the marketplace? Where the bidder is either recommended to be progressed to ITT stage in a Restricted tender or otherwise recommended for award, we will as appropriate seek to verify the information provided via either DBAi or we will request submission of and assess the bidders financial accounts and any other supporting information provided. Please note that a Failure Score below 51 or where SPT have reviewed your accounts and any supporting evidence and have deemed your organisation to be at a high risk of failure, your submission will be considered as having not met the required criteria, will be dismissed and not taken forward for further evaluation.",
"minimum": "The bidder must confirm that they have or will commit to obtain prior to the commencement of the contract, the following levels of Insurance Cover: Employer's Liability Insurance covering the death of or bodily injuries to employees of the bidder arising out of and in the course of their employment in connection with this contract to the level of 10000000 GBP in respect of each claim, without limit to the number of claims. Public Liability Insurance covering the death of or bodily injury to a person (not an employee of the bidder) or loss of or damage to property resulting from an action or failure to take action by the bidder to the level of 5000000 GBP in respect of each claim, without limit to the number of claims. Professional Indemnity Insurance covering the failure of the bidder to use the skill and care normally used by professionals providing the services described in this tender to the level of 5000000 GBP in respect of each claim, without limit to the number of claims."
