If you are using a sub-contractor (but not relying on them to meet the selection criteria) each sub-contractor should complete an SPD response. In this instance, they will only need to complete the exclusion criteria. Failure of a bidder to achieve a PASS against any of the assessed questions will automatically result in its exclusion from the procurement exercise."
