Lot 1
The Authority, on behalf of Scottish Ministers are establishing a multi-supplier national framework agreement for the provision of Cloud Services. The key aims of the framework are to deliver efficient access to Cloud Services to the Scottish public sector offering value for money, in a safe, secure and environmentally friendly way. The full scope of services will include, but not be limited to, the current services being offered to the Scottish public sector: - Platform as a Service (PaaS) & Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) - Cloud hosting services such as public/private/hybrid cloud - Traditional co-location and hosting - Transition services Where Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) and Platform as a Services (PaaS) are likely to be considered key requirements of any future Cloud Services arrangement, it is likely that Software as a Service (SaaS) would be out of scope, being delivered by other arrangements.
Renewal: On going National Framework will be reviewed for renewal in 4 years

Details of the D&B \"A Guide to Dun & Bradstreet's Predictive Indicators\" - can be found using the http address below: https://www.dnb.co.uk/about-us/our-analytics/predictors-scores-ratings/scores-ratings.html There must be no qualification or contra-indication from any evidence provided in support of the Tenderers economic and financial standing. The Authority has the right to request copies of financial accounts and insurance certificates which are not held electronically. If the D&B Failure Risk Score is 50 or more, on 1st August 2023, you will receive a pass for this assessment. If the D&B Failure Risk Score is less than 50 or no D&B Risk Failure score is available the Authority will contact the Tenderer and seek further information. The Authority will then use this further information to assess the Tenderer's level of failure risk. In the event that the Tenderer does not meet the financial criteria above and/or the level of failure risk after assessment of further information is considered to be too high, they may still be considered via some form of other assurance e.g. Parent Company Guarantee (providing parent has a failure risk score of 50 or more) or a performance bond. If this assessment identifies an unmanageable risk (i.e. it is unacceptable) the Tenderer will fail this assessment. SPD Statements 4B.5.1b and 4B.5.2: It is a requirement that tenderers hold or can commit to obtain prior to the commencement of any subsequently awarded contract the types of insurance indicated below: Public Liability Insurance in the sum of not less than 1,000,000 GBP, or such greater/other sum as may be agreed with the Framework Public Body; and; Professional Indemnity Insurance in the sum of not less than 1,000,000 GBP, or such greater/other sum as may be agreed with the Framework Public Body; and; Employer's Liability Insurance in the sum of not less than 5,000,000 GBP or in accordance with any legal obligation for the time being in force."
