5. Within the Financial Viability section we are requested to upload 3 years of company accounts, however, there appears to be a file size limit of 4.77mb.
Our accounts exceed this limit and the system is therefore preventing us from proceeding beyond this point.
Can you please therefore advise how we can upload our accounts.
Thank you
Please compress the file and upload it in .zip format.

3. Reference - attachment 1, tab "Filter 1 services". Are suppliers able to pick which services in column B under each filter that they can bid for e.g. can you bid to supply only 2 services listed under "Miscellaneous FM Services" or, to bid for that filter would you need to provide all services listed in column B?
Suppliers are able to pick the services they can deliver. This can be a single service, more than one service or all services.

1. Afternoon,
We are a specialist fire extinguisher and fire door inspection company and cannot provide all of Work Package 'Maintenance Services'. Can you please clarify if you must submit a bid for the entire package?
Can you please confirm this would be the correct category for the service we provide?
Thank you in advance.
