description:
Based on historical data the supplier is required to meet a minimum of an annual turnover threshold of £10M.  The Authority reserves the right to exclude the supplier from being selected to tender if this threshold cannot be met. However, where the supplier provides, to the satisfaction of the Authority, evidence showing it has sufficient economic and financial capability, the Authority may consider the supplier as suitable to tender. Such evidence may include:
a. Any additional information proving it has sufficient economic and financial resources to deliver the requirement; and
b. State whether the supplier is willing to provide the Authority with an indemnity, guarantee or bank bond.
In addition, auditable accounts from the previous 12 months or equivalent if accounts not yet available must be submitted as part of the DPQQ response. The Authority may request further information regarding these accounts.
An overall pass/fail judgement will be made after considering all areas, including turnover, profit, net assets, liquidity, gearing and capacity. This assessment will also include the parent company, indemnity, guarantee or bank bond where applicable. An independent financial assessment obtained from a reputable credit rating organisation may be utilised as part of this process. If a supplier is unable to meet the minimum annual turnover threshold and offers to supply the Authority with an indemnity, guarantee or bank bond the Authority will take this into consideration along with all the above factors to conclude the level of confidence within the financial assessment resulting in an overall pass/fail.

minimum: This will be determined through the Technical element of the DPQQ.

In preparation for an award of a National Rail Contract from the Department for Transport to Transpennine Express Limited (operated by First Group), it is intended to extend the rolling stock lease with Eversholt Rail Limited for the fleets of trains currently under lease with Eversholt Rail Limited. The leases are expected to be extended in accordance with paragraph II.2.4 below.

procurementMethod: limited

procurementMethodDetails: Negotiated without publication of a contract notice

procurementMethodRationale:
1.	This is because there is no other UK based fleets available in sufficient quantities or within the requisite timeframe to meet TPE's needs for the National Rail Contract. Alternative rolling stock have been considered but do not meet either the speed requirements or capacity requirements.
2.	Furthermore, the introduction of alternative rolling stock would require route approvals, including but not limited to, gauge clearance and TOC related infrastructure changes. These approvals and changes would not be finalised within the requisite timescales and TPE cannot operate with a gap in its services.

reviewDetails: Glasgow City Council (“the Council”) must, by notice in writing as soon as possible after the decision has been made, inform all tenderers and candidates concerned of its decision to award the contract, conclude the framework agreement or establish a dynamic purchasing system. The Council must allow a period of at least the relevant standstill period (where the notice is sent by facsimile or electronic means the period is 10 days ending at midnight at the end of the 10th day after that on which the last notice is sent, when sent by other means the period is 15 days) to elapse between the date of despatch of the notice referred to in Regulation 85(1) of the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015 (“the Regulations”). The Council is obliged to comply with the Regulations and any eligible economic operator can bring an action in the Sheriff Court or the Court of Session where as a consequence of a breach by the Council, suffers or risks suffering loss or damage. The bringing of court proceedings during the standstill period means that the Council must not enter into the contract, conclude the framework agreement or establish the dynamic purchasing system unless the proceedings are determined, discontinued or disposed of; or the court, by interim order, brings to an end the prohibition.

Failure to implement Sectra Order Management would require HSC to revert to a paperbased workflow which is a substantial backward step in terms of requesting radiology procedures and along with the additional resource requirements it would also create a clinical risk. Clinical risks identified with paper based workflows include time delays, for both patient and clinician, paper going missing, audit trails etc. This would also create a lot of additional manual interventions in an already existing electronic environment.
