SPD Question 4B5 Insurances:
 Bidders require to confirm they are already have or can commit to obtain, prior to the commencement of the contract, the levels of insurance cover indicated below:
 Employers (Mandatory) Liability Insurance = 10 million GBP in respect of each claim without limit to the number of claims.
 Public (Mandatory) Liability Insurance = 5 million GBP in respect of each claim without limit to the number of claims.
 Product(Mandatory) Liability Insurance = 5 million GBP in respect of each claim and in the aggregate.
 Professional (Mandatory) Indemnity Insurance = 500 thousand GBP in respect of each claim and in the aggregate.
 Documentation requested for the above insurances should include name of insurers, policy numbers, expiry date and limits of any one incident and annual aggregate caps and the excesses under the policies.
 SPD Question 4B6 Financial Standing:
 The Authority will access a Credit safe report for a Tenderers organisation and use the information contained within to assist with the assessment of the Tenderer’s economic and financial standing. Tenders are asked to provide their company number within the ESPD to allow the Authority to access a Credit Safe Report.
 Within such reports, the risk of business failure is expressed as a score of 30 or below (high risk of business failure). In the event that a company is determined to have a risk failure rating of 30 and below i.e. that the company is considered to have a high risk of business failure, the submission will not be considered further.
 If you are successful in the award of this contract and your risk failure rating falls below 30 then the SPA reserve the right to remove you from this contract. It is the Contractor’s responsibility to ensure that the information held by Credit Safe is accurate and up to date.
 For the avoidance of doubt, the SPA will request a report from Credit Safe following the closing date for the receipt of the Tenders to ensure that the most up to date information is used. Where you are not registered on credit safe e.g. charitable organisations or new start companies/ Sole Traders with less than 3 years trading history, discretionary powers are available to the Director of Finance to consider abbreviated accounts along with bankers references etc.
 Tenderers should be aware that any outstanding County Court Judgements will have a detrimental effect on the rating held by Credit Safe and it is your responsibility to ensure that the information held by Credit Safe is accurate and up to date - failure to do so will result in rejection of your submission.
 IMPORTANT NOTE: This requirement is not applicable to Sole Traders/ Charities. Sole Traders/ Charities may be required to provide a bankers reference if successful.

The Council is looking to identify parties interested in delivering Argyll and Bute Councils Revenues and Benefits System, as detailed in the attached document.
 Market information would be welcomed from suppliers for solutions which are either on-premise or cloud/SaaS hosted. However at procurement stage, for on-prem solutions suppliers would be asked to provide their product roadmap indicating duration of future support provisions for the product, and if a date is scheduled for transitioning their solution to cloud/SaaS – on-prem solutions would only be considered if support would be available for the full term of the contract – which is likely to be between 6 – 10 years. For clarity, Business Rates (NDR) administration is not in scope for this requirement and we are not looking for a Debtors system..

Award of contract for extension of our aerial surveillance and survey services contract without seeking offers through a formal procurement procedure has been untaken due to unforeseeable circumstances. Under clause 72 (1)(b) of the legislation, a contracting authority may award a contract without competition where all the conditions are fulfilled. In this case, the grounds for not exposing to competition are as follows:
 The aircraft are due to be sold by the Scottish Ministers. Brokerage services are due to commence on 1 September 2025 so this leaves a lapse time of one month from end of service provision. Storage of the two aircraft and maintenance of the aircraft including a D-check which is due on one aircraft will have to be done to ensure maintain of their value. The present supplier is the only supplier able to provide a CAA maintenance agreed plan to undertake such a service and thus a short extension to our existing contract has been made for a period of one month.

description:
Following on from recent works completed by ADT/JC at GRI to modify and upgrade the Old Royal fire alarm system further works are required to install a category L1 system. These works will ensure compliance with current legislation and SHTM 82 which states category L1 system should be provided throughout all parts of hospital premises. A fire alarm system is an important life safe system and category L1 provides the earliest possible warning of fire, so as far to achieve the longest available time for escape. Acute hospital settings include in-pateint areas, high dependency, vulnerable occupants in a high risk environment where early warning is essential to preserve life and maximise time to carry out an evacuation.
 Johnston controls/ADT have successfully completed site wide modification and renewal works in recent years and also provide on going maintenance and support for fire detection systems within the GRI and have on-site support and extensive knowledge of these systems. Due to the size and complexity of the site Johnston Controls are best equipped to provide the installation support for the upgrade to category L1.
 The reason this requirement has been published as a VEAT in addition to above is that ADT are thought to be the only company that can access the current closed protocol panels and upload them to the new open protocol panels.

description: Glasgow Royal Infirmary

title: Replacement Fire Alarm Panels Glasgow Royal Infirmary

procurementMethodRationale:
Due to the size and nature of the fire alarm system ADT are thought be the only service provider who could provide the installation.
 ADT are thought to be the only company that can access the current closed protocol panels and upload then to the new open protocol panels.
 Therefore the best course of action to insure compliance with procurement regulations, and ensure the continued maintenance of these systems, is to publish a voluntary ex ante transparency (VEAT) notice.
 NHSGGC will publish a voluntary ex ante transparency (VEAT) notice on PCS. In accordance with: ‘The Public Contracts (Scotland)
 Regulations 2015, SSI 2015/446 1 91(7)(a)’ , this will be published to protect NHSGGC against the risk of an ineffectiveness challenge to
 the lawful direct award of a contract.
 Additionally and in line with the practices of: Fairness; Openness and Transparency; the publication of this VEAT Notice has been
 balanced against the risk that publication of this VEAT Notice may, in fact, increase awareness of the proposed direct award and increase
 the risk of challenge.
 A VEAT was the best legal procurement route to take because the disruption as a result of installing a new system would be significant and would have wide reaching consequences impacting: Staff; Patients and Services.
 The contract will be in place until the 31/03/2026
