"description": "The Price:Quality ratio on which this tender is 45% price (commercial), 55% quality (technical). The quality criterion outlined in section II.2.5 make up 100% of the 55% quality score. Further information how scores will be calculated is available in the tender documents available on PCS-T. SPD evaluation will be scored as pass/fail. Technical Criteria and Weightings are included in the Evaluation and Award Criteria Document within PCS-T. Where the bidder relies on the capacities of other entities in order to meet the selection criteria they must provide a separate SPD for each entity. Please read the instructions on the SPD section 2C.1 for full details. If the bidder intends to subcontract any share of the contract, then the bidder will be required to submit a separate SPD (Part II A&B, and Part III A&B only) for each subcontractor. FLS reserves the right to modify the Contract within the scope permitted under Regulation 72(1) of the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015. Operational reasons for modification may include, but are not limited to: - Changes to operational programs which may increase or decrease land agency services; - Changes to in-house capacity resulting in the need to outsource additional Land Agency; - A drive from the Scottish Government or a change in government policy/priorities leading to new infrastructure projects, changes in budget for FLS, and a shift in priorities; - Impact of a pandemic or any other event or occurrence which is outside the reasonable control of the Authority; - Changes in guidelines and industry standards; - Unforeseen changes to budgets that may increase or decrease the availability of budgets for surveys; - Suitability of land coming to market or offered off market; - Community interest through CATS; - The volume of boundary adjustments due to the recent completion of the voluntary registration of the FLS whole land holding; - The completion of outstanding work at the end of the Framework Agreement. - The volume of assets being declared surplus and brought forward by Forest Regions. Question Scoring Methodology for Technical Criteria: 0 - Unacceptable - Nil or inadequate response. Fails to demonstrate an ability to meet the requirement. 25 - Poor - Response is partially relevant and poor. The response addresses some elements of the requirement but contains insufficient/limited detail or explanation to demonstrate how the requirement will be fulfilled. 50 - 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. 75 - 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. 100 - 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. Any Bidder that receives a score of zero for one or more Technical criteria will be excluded from the tender.
