To approve the procurement plan for the
procurement of Reactive Maintenance Contractor to provide 24 hour
Maintenance and Reactive Repairs Services to the Council.
RESOLVED that the Procurement Plan for the appointment Reactive Maintenance Contractor to provide a 24 hour Maintenance and Reactive Repair Services to the Council is approved.
1. There is a requirement of the Contract Standing Orders that any contracts in excess of £181K (for supplies and services) are required to go to a formal tendering process to ensure value for money and compliance with legislation.
2. To ensure that the Council has an effective and reliable contractor in place to deal with any ‘reactive’ maintenance issues that may arise.
3. Failure to do so could result in costly implications for the Council and could also impact on the services we are able to offer individuals within the Borough. A large number of school sites have bought into the services provided by the Construction and Maintenance Group and therefore benefit from the reactive maintenance service arising from this award
An alternative option was to appoint specialist contractors, but this was rejected in favour of the current working practice.
