For more information see: https://www.gov.scot/policies/public-sector-procurement/community-benefits-in-pr... A summary of the expected community benefits has been provided as follows: We use a point’s-based system to ensure each Contract or Framework Agreement has appropriate community benefits as an essential component. Each action is worth a varying number of points based on how well it contributes to our priorities. When the Council spends with a Contractor(s), they earn Community Benefit Points. The number of Points earned correlates directly with Council’s level of spend with a Contractor(s) as outlined ITT documentation and Appendix E and are based on annual spend from Contract start date. Year 1 Tenderers are required to contact Falkirk Council to discuss in more detail the types of community benefits that could be delivered in Year 1 based on anticipated spend. PS26125 Appendix E Schedule 6 Community Benefits Points Based provides a ‘menu’ of Community Benefits which can be used as a starting point for discussions. Tenderers are required to complete Annex A below detailing what community benefits will be delivered in Year 1, if successful, and include within their tender submission. The successful contractor(s) will meet with Council Officers prior to contract start to agree community benefit delivery for Year 1. Year 2 onwards Tenderers are required to meet with Falkirk Council at the beginning of each year to agree what community benefits will be delivered that year based on anticipated spend.
