For the financial stability assessment, LHCs’ financial team will undertake the following process to carry out a robust assessment of a Bidders' financial standing:

1) Credit score – LHC use Creditsafe to carry out initial checking of a Bidders’ financial status and help inform the subsequent assessments carried out by LHC. Should any financial risk or low score be flagged within the Creditsafe information, LHC may also review independent reports from other credit referencing agencies such as Equifax, Dunn & Bradstreet and Baker Tilly to help inform our assessment.

A Bidder response template for these questions is provided.

Workstream Specific Technical Questions - The template/s required to be completed are dependent on the lots the bidder is applying for. A Bidder response template for these questions is provided.
