Participation
Conditions suppliers must meet to bid.
Conditions of Participation: Legal capacity The provider must demonstrate commitment to equal opportunities, have an understanding of equality issues and be compliant with the public sector equality duty set out in the Equality Act (2010). Conditions of Participation: Legal capacity Please find information within the Procurement Pack - P-0800 ITT Document
Conditions of Participation: Technical ability Suppliers must demonstrate that they have relevant experience. This will be assessed as a pass/fail criterion. A pass can be achieved in one of the following ways, (otherwise relevant experience will be assessed as a 'fail' and the Supplier's tender will be excluded from the procurement): • The Supplier (if not a consortium) demonstrates experience of at least one relevant contract examples and of a similar nature and value to this contract opportunity from within the last three years; or • The Supplier (if not a consortium) does not have at least one contract example but demonstrates in the Procurement Specific Questionnaire that they have relevant experience of a similar nature and value to this contract opportunity within the last three years. The response should include justification on why the experience is relevant and details for a reference person that the Council can contact; or • Where the Supplier is relying on an Associated Person to meet the technical ability, there are at least two relevant contract examples of a similar nature and value to this contract opportunity. The examples should cover both the Supplier and the Associated Person, or one example relating to the Supplier's experience and one relating to the Associated Person's; or • For consortium bids involving more than two parties, three relevant contract examples of a similar nature and value to this contract opportunity should be provided covering the principal members of the consortium. Where this is not possible (e.g. if the consortium is newly formed or a special purpose vehicle is to be created for the contract), three separate examples should be provided between the principal member(s) of the proposed consortium or members of the special purpose vehicle or sub-contractors (three examples are not required from each member).
