Tenderers will be required provide the following information in response to 4B.4: Liquidity ratio for Current Year 2021 Liquidity ratio for Prior Year: 2020 The formula for calculating a Tenderer's liquidity ratio is (current assets - stock or work in progress) divided by current liabilities.

Where a Tenderer's Liquidity 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. Tenderers are required to have a minimum \"general\" annual turnover of 350000 GBP for the last two financial years. 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. Where this information is not available due to a new company being established a business plan should be provided demonstrating how the organisation will meet the annual turnover requirement."
