rationale:
Need for additional works, services or supplies by the original contractor/concessionaire: Following the non award of Lot 2 from the original Tender 1195, the intention was to progress a separate open tender exercise, following development of the awarded offerings for Lot 1 and Lot 3 from the original procurement.
 The work within lot’s 1 and 3 has progressed and upon review of the proposed specification vs the original responses received to tender 1195, it is not possible to seek any alternate offering that would meet the technical requirements of the required systems resulting from the revised specification for the Lot 2 element.

description:
The Hawick Flood Protection Scheme (HFPS) will provide a significant benefit to the residents and businesses of Hawick by virtue of alleviating the effects of a major flood event in the River Teviot. The town has suffered from flooding in the recent past, including large numbers of properties inundated in 2005 and 2015, causing significant economic and human adverse effects. The HFPS will comprise the construction of nearly 6km of entirely new flood defences, the great majority of which are flood defence walls. The walls will generally be sheet pile cored to a depth of between 4 and 12m below ground level, with reinforced concrete pile cap and stem. Exposed concrete will either be clad in natural stone or finished with a formlined pattern. Around 60 glass panels, each 2.5m wide and up to 1.4m deep are to be set into the floodwalls. Approximately 1.8km of the defences will require to be constructed directly within the watercourse. A short section of embankment will comprise a sheet pile core with locally won granular shoulders. Eight entirely new automatic surface water pumping stations will provide further protection, comprising wet wells up to 6m deep and 5m diameter, valve chambers up to 4m deep and 6m diameter and GRP kiosks to house the power and control units. The MEICA design for the surface water pumping stations will be the main contractor design element. The discharge capacity of the submersible pumps will vary within each pumping station, with the largest requiring to deliver up to 450 l/s. A ninth pumping station will be required within the Hawick waste water treatment works to assist the works during high flows and flood events, with submersible pumps capable of delivering up to 1100 l/s of storm water. Approximately 275m and 185m of new culvert will be required to discharge the Stirches and Boosie Burns respectively into the River Teviot. Requirement to install 9 new single leaf lift hinge floodgates within the flood defences to maintain pedestrian and vehicle access and 2 sets of stop log type demountable barriers are also required. The existing Lawson, Victoria and Mansfield steel truss footbridges will, as a minimum, require to be raised by 1.0m, 1.0m and 0.4m respectively at their current location, comprising new abutments and extension legs welded to the deck supports at midspan. The current preferred option which is currently subject to SUSTRANS funding confirmation, is to remove the existing bridges from their supports and replace with entirely new steel truss structures at new locations, with deck widths up to 4.0m wide. If SUSTRANS funding is confirmed, the new bridges will be part of a new 7.0km combined pedestrian and cycle route throughout Hawick, which will be delivered by this procurement excercise. The replacement bridge option will be the scenario which is to be priced as part of this procurement exercise. Further details of the work description are appended to the ESPD.
 Construction of the HFPS will be subject to a number of environmental and pedestrian / traffic management constraints, including restrictions on the time of year when works can be carried out within or adjacent to the river channel in order to reduce the impacts on salmon migration, and restrictions on which roads and footpaths can be closed simultaneously.
 The Council are currently carrying out an advance works contract which comprises the diversion of a large number of existing public utilities and the felling of the majority of trees which may be impacted by construction of the project. This procurement exercise will still require the protection and small scale diversion of some public utilities and a small amount of tree felling.
 The Council intend to appoint a main contractor to carry out the construction of this project under the terms and conditions of NEC3 (Engineering and Construction Contract) Option A contract.

a) Question 4B.1 - Minimum "general" yearly turnover of GBP GBP100,000,000 for the last two years of trading,or for the period which is available if trading for less than two years;
 b)Question 4B.4 - Evaluation Criteria Ratios
 The financial information received under ESPD, Question 4B.4 shall be evaluated and scored out of 50 by allocating a score against nine individual economic and financial standing evaluation criteria, namely:
 1. Acid Test Ratio
 2. Cash Interest Cover Ratio
 3. Return on Capital Employed
 4. Operating Profit Ratio
 5. Net Worth
 6. Gearing
 7. Annual Contract Value to Turnover
 8. Filed Accounts
 9. Audit Report
 The individual scores shall be weighted, with the most recent (“Year 1”) financial statements weighted at 67% and the previous (“Year 2”) statements being weighted at 33%,to form an aggregated score for each of the nine criteria over the two years.
 The maximum cumulative score resulting from the summation of the nine economic and financial standing aggregated scores shall be 50 marks in each year. A submission shall be marked as a FAIL and will not be considered further if the score achieved by a Single Economic Operator or a Group of Economic Operators is less than 50 percent of the available marks. The template laying out the scoring mechanism can be downloaded and is provided with the ESPD documentation.
 c)The Council will access a CreditSafe report for the tenderers organisation and use the information contained within to assist with the assessment of the tenderers economic and financial standing. A rating no less than 50 is required.
 Where the submission has been submitted by a Group of Economic Operators,the information submitted by each Group Member will be evaluated in the proportion of the percentage shareholdings or percentage equity/interest of each Group Member and a score determined for such Group of Economic Operators on that basis. The template for this information (if relevant) is provided with the ESPD information.
 In addition to the information requested under (a) and (b) economic operators are required to provide a link/copies of the associated annual accounts as filed at Companies House (or equivalent if not a UK registered company) for the last two years of trading, or for the period which is available if less than two years.
 This information has been requested to enable Scottish Borders Council to perform their own assessment and confirm the financial ratios submitted. Ultimately, ensuring the correct score is allocated, and to ensure no misinterpretation. Where there exist differences in ratios, between those provided and those calculated by Scottish Borders Council clarification will be sought.
 Where a tenderer does not meet any one of requirements (a), (b) or (c) then the tenderer will be marked as a FAIL and will progress no further in the tender process.
 In the event the analysis of your financial position determines that additional measures are necessary in order to provide assurance of financial strength you may be required to provide a Parent Company Guarantee and/or Bank Guarantee.
 In any event, and if your organisation is a private or public company and the tenderer is a subsidiary, then a completed Parent Company Guarantee is required for any subsidiary members from a consortium. The Council reserves the right to evaluate the economic and financial standing of the Parent Company in the same way as any other tenderer.
 Should none of the above requirements be satisfactory to the Council, the Council reserves the right to exclude the tenderer from the tender process.
