Section VI: Complementary information

VI.3) Additional information

TENDERERS PLEASE NOTE:

.

Late Tenders will not be considered under any circumstances.

--

The Council will not provide additional notification to any Bidder of the rejection of a late Tender.

--

For the avoidance of any doubt, automated messages confirming receipt of a Tender should not be taken to imply acceptance of it by the Council.

.

.

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.
