 Evaluation Criteria Ratios (Question Ref. 4B.6)
 The following nine evaluation criteria shall be scored, for each year of the last two years of trading, or for the period which is available if trading for less than two years:
 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 scoring mechanism can be located within the Supplementary Information Document and downloaded via the Additional Documents, located within the Additional Notice Options of the Public Contracts Scotland portal (www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk). For the purpose of calculating the Annual Contract Value to Turnover ratio the estimated value in II.2.6 of this Contract Notice shall be adopted. Similarly, for the purposes of this ratio, the duration of the contract (construction phase) shall be approximately 3 years . This equates to an estimated value of [48,520,000.GBP] per annum for the initial construction phase, followed by an estimated value of [888,000GBP] per annum for the subsequent maintenance phase (60 months).
 The nine evaluation criteria will be individually scored and given a total aggregated score, out of a possible 50 marks, for each year of trading. Subsequently, each year’s score will be weighted, with the most recent (“Year 1”) weighted at 2/3rds and the previous (“Year 2”) weighted at 1/3rd, and then aggregated to form an overall score for the two years out of 50 marks.
 If the economic operator is trading for less than 2 years, their financial ratios for the most recent full year of trading will be weighted at 2/3rds scored out of the total 50 marks. If the economic operator is trading for less than 1 year the information provided under III.1.2) b), will be prorated up to 1 year to calculate financial ratios for the full year and this will be weighted at 2/3rds and scored out of the total 50 marks.
 A submission shall be marked as a FAIL and will not be considered further if the score achieved by an economic operator (either a single economic operator or a group of economic operators) is less than 25 marks, out of the potential total aggregated score of 50 marks.
 A submission shall be marked as a FAIL and will not be considered further if the economic operator is unable to provide appropriate information to enable the calculation of the financial ratios.
 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.
 A “group of economic operators” is defined as an unincorporated consortium or joint venture.
 Insurance (Question Ref. 4B.5)
 In response to Question Ref. 4B.5, economic operators must confirm they already have or can commit to obtain, prior to the commencement, the following levels of insurance:
 Professional Indemnity Insurance = GBP 10 million
 Public Liability Insurance = GBP 155 million
 Employer’s (Compulsory) Liability Insurance = GBP 10 million
 In responding to Question Ref. 4B.5, where the economic operator responds “No, and I cannot commit to obtain it” they shall be marked as FAIL and shall be excluded from this procurement competition.

description:
Economic operators shall be required to satisfy minimum standards of economic and financial standing. To determine these standards, economic operators shall:
 a)	in response to SPD, Question Ref. 4B1a provide the specified annual turnover for the last two years of trading, or for the period which is available if trading for less than two years;
 b)	in response to SPD, Question Ref. 4B.6 provide the name, range and score of nine financial criteria for each year for the last two years of trading, or for the period which is available if trading for less than two years; and
 c)	in response to SPD, Question Ref. 4B.5 confirm they already have or can commit to obtain, prior to commencement of the contract the required levels of insurance.
 In addition to the information requested under (a) to (c), economic operators must provide a link / copies of the associated annual accounts as filed at Companies House (or equivalent if not a UK registered company). For the avoidance of doubt, if an economic operator fails to provide accounts relating to its last two full years of trading that are due to have been filed, that economic operator will be excluded from this procurement competition.
 Where economic operators have not yet been trading for a full two year period, such that filed accounts are not yet due and available, and limited only to that circumstance, the required information to support (a) to (c) above may take the form of appropriate third party / statements setting out turnover, profit and loss, cashflow (current and forecast) and the economic operator’s credit facility position. Note there will, however, be a negative scoring implication as noted below and in the Additional Documents.
 This information has been requested to enable Transport Scotland 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 Transport Scotland, clarification will be sought.
