Late Tenders will not be considered under any circumstances.

Police Scotland identified a number of business areas that have a high risk of infiltration by Serious and Organised Crime groups; this Framework belongs to one such area and as such the Council reserves the right to include enhanced probity checks prior to any contract award, including sharing tenderer information with Police Scotland.
The tender pack includes a schedule for the Declaration of non-involvement in serious organised crime; this is a mandatory tender submission requirement for all tenderers.
