"description": "With regards SPD question 4B.4 SPT will use Dun and Bradstreet's DBAi financial reporting system to assess the financial stability of bidders. 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. In this scenario Bidders must confirm within their response to question 4B.4 within the Qualification Envelope, the ratio name and value of the 3 financial ratios required as taken from their own Accounts. Where 2 out of the 3 ratios cannot be met, we may then take account of other factors 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.",
"minimum": "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 question 4B.4 within the Qualification Envelope, the value of their D&B Failure Score. 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."
