Purpose:

In accordance with the approval of the Procurement Plan by The Executive on 23rd July 2019, which agreed the delegation of the award of the new contract to the Executive Director: Delivery, the purpose of this report is now to seek approval to award the new contract.

Decision:

The Enforcement and Parking Management Services contract that is due to commence on 1st July 2020 be awarded to Tenderer B.

Reasons for the decision:

To ensure the delivery of a high-quality enforcement and parking management service provided at the best value for money.

Alternative options considered:

The current enforcement and parking management service contract had to be retendered under EU procurement rules. Further extensions of the contract would not be permitted.

 

An option for insourcing the administration of Penalty Charge Notices was included in the tender documents (Lot 1). Following evaluation this option was not deemed suitable due to the potential risk of delivering this service inhouse. The evaluation team concluded that any risk would be minimised if a contractor provided a full end to end service.
