If a company makes a profit then it is a pass for this ratio; Liquidity - this 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 Gearing - this 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. Bidders must provide the name and value of each of the 3 ratios within their response to SPD question 4B.4. The Council requires bidders to pass 2 out of the 3 financial ratios above. Where 2 out of the 3 ratios cannot be met, the Council may take the undernoted into consideration when assessing financial viability and the risk to the Council, providing that the Bidder can supply evidence to substantiate any of the mitigating criteria when requested to do so. The following list is not exhaustive and other criteria may be considered where proposed by a bidder as mitigating factors: Would the bidder have passed the checks if prior year accounts had been used? Were any of the poor 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\"? Will the bidder provide a Parent Company Guarantee? Is the bidder the single supplier/source of the Goods/Works/Services in the marketplace? The Council will request submission of and assess the bidders financial accounts, and may use financial verification systems to validate the information provided.",

For more information see: http://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/info/InfoCentre.aspx?ID=2361 A summary of the expected community benefits has been provided as follows: Bidders will be invited to detail the specific community benefits the award of this Contract will deliver Examples of Community Benefits Targeted Recruitment and Training - offering individuals and young people training, apprenticeships, jobs and work experience as part of a contract . Supply Chain Initiatives - offering Small and Medium Enterprises and Voluntary Sector organisations opportunities to provide goods and/or services as part of a contract. Social Enterprise - where a local social enterprise can either be established to service a contract, or an existing social enterprise be supported to deliver on part of a contract. Community Consultation - giving the local community an opportunity to express an opinion and possibly influence the design and delivery of a project or service in an area. Young Person Engagement - giving young people in the area an opportunity to engage in a project. The engagement can range from young people learning about a project to giving them the opportunity to shape and influence a project thus giving them more say in and connection to the future of their area. Educational Support - giving school children an opportunity to learn about a project by providing educational presentations or arranging school visits. Community Endowment Fund/Development Trust - where a financial sum may be made available to implement projects that the community considers to be a priority. This often ensures ownership, participation and support at a very local level. Public Art Projects - a tangible project that a community can focus on and be involved in either as a standalone activity or part of a wider regeneration initiative. Local Events - local ownership of a project or service. Physical Infrastructure - often delivered by the private sector as part of a Section 75 agreement in relation to a planning consent. Examples would be infrastructure required to enable a new development to be implemented for example roads and footpath/cycleway improvements, schools and libraries and play areas and open space. Local Sponsorship - private companies are often asked to sponsor organisations local to the area in which they are developing/delivering a service. Mentoring - private sector suppliers can offer support, normally as part of their Corporate Responsibility activity, where they can offer support and guidance to local organisations and individuals.
