"description": "Re SPD question 4B.6 West Lothian Council will use Dun and Bradstreet\u2019s DBAi financial reporting system to assess the financial stability of tenderers. Tenderers with a Failure Score of 50 or above on the DBAi system will be deemed to have evidenced satisfactory financial stability. Please note that 49 or less will not be considered as having met this criteria. If a tenderer has a Failure Score of less than 50, the tenderer may be required to submit their last three years accounts.\nIn the event that the tenderer is not required to publish accounts and therefore does not have a Dun \u0026 Bradstreet or equivalent rating, tenderers should be able to provide financial accounts when requested. The council will then conduct an analysis of the accounts to ensure that there is no significant financial risk. Please note that if you intend on attaching 2 years accounts, these must include financial data over a 3-year period.\nIt is recommended that candidates review their own Dun \u0026 Bradstreet Score in advance of submitting their tender. If following this review tenderers consider that the Dun \u0026 Bradstreet Score does not reflect their current financial status, details of this should be provided, complete with evidence of a good high street credit rating (the equivalent of Dun \u0026 Bradstreet score 50) from a recognised credit referencing agency. The council will review any such information as part of the evaluation of Tenderer\u2019s financial status.\nIn the event that a firm does not meet the financial criteria for consideration but has a parent company that does, the firm may still be eligible for consideration where their Tender Submission is supported by a Parent Company Guarantee.\nShould after review of the financial evaluation the tenderer fail, then the tender submission may be rejected.",
