This list is reviewed and amended from time to time. If you would like to be considered as an approved supplier then please contact the Head of Finance and Property Services at finance@south-derbys.gov.uk or by using the online enquiry form.
You will be required to give basic information about your business. The answers to this section indicate the type of company and the history behind your business. Examples of information requested will be quality standards and public liability insurance.
You will be asked to submit audited accounts and annual reports for the last three years. If you do not have audited accounts you can still apply to be on the approved list. However, without any accounts there will be a limit to the value of contract you may be awarded.
We will take up references that you supply regarding other contracts you have completed so that we have knowledge of your quality of work and, where applicable, after sales service.
We are committed to providing equal opportunities for every member of our community. It is important therefore that contractors tendering for our work can show a similar commitment and that they do not discriminate against any members of our community.
This section aims to ensure that we conform with legal obligations under the Race Relations Act 1976, The Local Government Act 1988, and the EU Public Procurement Directives. The amount of information we will require will depend upon the size and nature of work you are interested in.
You will be asked questions relating to your health and safety arrangements and we will need to see a copy of your health and safety policy.
You will be asked to submit your environmental policy with your application. At this stage if you do not have a policy, it will not prevent you from being accepted onto the approved list. However, we may ask for additional information when you are tendering for specific projects/contracts.
