The Contracting Authority does not intend to include a sub-contract clause as part of community benefits (as per Section 25 of the Procurement Reform (Scotland) Act 2014) in this contract for the following reason:
Project start date is time critical and tendering contractors are expected to enter into agreement with any required sub-contractors during the main works tender period. There is insufficient time available for a separate sub-contract tender process after award of this contract.
Community benefits are included in this requirement. For more information see: https://www.gov.scot/policies/public-sector-procurement/community-benefits-in-procurement/
A summary of the expected community benefits has been provided as follows:
Kishorn Port Limited are not a Public Contracting Authority in terms of the Procurement Reform (Scotland) Act 2014 and compulsory community benefit requirements do not therefore apply to this contract. However, as some funding will be from public grants, bidders are encouraged to use local suppliers and companies and this will be considered in the scoring of submissions at the award stage.
