reviewDetails:
The University of St Andrews will incorporate a minimum of 10 calendar day standstill period at the point of information on the award of the contract being communicated to tenderers. This period allows unsuccessful tenderers to seek further debriefing from the contracting authority before the contract is entered into. Applicants have 2 working days from the notification of the award decision to request additional debriefing and that information has to be provided a minimum of 3 working days before the expiry of the standstill period. Such additional information should be requested from The University of St Andrews.
 If an appeal regarding the award of contract has not been successfully resolved The Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2012 provide for aggrieved parties who have been harmed or are at risk of harm by a breach of the rule to take action in the Sheriff Court or Court of Session.
 The anticipated review body in such cases would be:
 Dundee Sheriff Court
 6 West Bell Street
 Dundee
 DD1 9AD
 Telephone: +44 1382 229 961
 Anyone bringing court proceedings against the University of St Andrews must inform the University of St Andrews in advance of the alleged breach and its intention to bring proceedings. Any such action must be brought within 15 days of the date on which a decision is sent to them or published to challenge that decision.

 Where a contract has not been entered into the Court may, by interim order, suspend the procurement procedure. The court may also set aside a decision or actions taken by the University or order it to amend and document; and/or award damages. However, by express requirement the court may decide not to grant an interim order when the negative consequences of such an order are likely to outweigh the benefits, having regard to a number of considerations.

The new system must offer similar or improved secure access systems, such as Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) or Can BUS readers, to identify vehicles and authorised users prior to fuel dispensation and allow for smart fleet data capture in identifying vehicles, drivers and collecting vehicle odometer data.
 The council requires to appoint one supplier to provide all element of this contract to include supply, installation and maintenance of new fuel management system and existing fuel infrastructure maintenance for the council’s eighteen fuel sites.

To establish the financial standing of a bidder, the Council will:
 Take into account a risk report provided independently by Creditsafe. Within such reports, the risk of business failure is expressed as a score ranging from 1 -100. In the event that a company is determined to have a risk failure rating of below 30 i.e. that the company is considered to have a high risk of business failure, the submission will not be considered further. Where the score is 30+ the Council will consider all information available from the report.
 Where you are not registered on credit safe e.g. charitable organisations, new start companies and Sole Traders you are to submit 2 years financial accounts, including Profit & Loss Statement and Balance Sheet for consideration.
 It should be noted that in addition to the above checks the Council reserves the right at its own discretion to seek such other information from the Applicant in accordance with Regulation 61(7) or Regulation 61(8) of the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015 to determine the Applicant’s economic and financial standing. The final decision on bidder inclusion rests with the Council.
 The successful tender will be expected to maintain a Creditsafe level of 30+ throughout the contract period. The offer of any extension to the contract will be dependent on an acceptable crediting rating of 30+. The council reserve the right to terminate the contract should the financial standing decline to an unacceptable level.
 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.
 The Council also may use the SPD (Scotland) questions under Part IV. Section B to assess bidders’ financial standing. If used, further information can be found in the Contract Notice.
 It should be noted that the maximum business that can be passed to a sub-contractor or members of a consortia under this contract cannot be more than 50% of their annual turnover. The council reserves the right to request evidence of the other SPD areas in relation to the selection criteria of suitability, economic and financial standing and quality assurance schemes and environmental management standards. For the avoidance of doubt where a subcontractor or participants of a group who meet the compulsory exclusions grounds shall be replaced at the request of the Council and the Council may request the replacement where the discretionary exclusion grounds are met.
