Decision details

Executive considered the report of the Portfolio Holder – Housing & Community Safety which sought approval to award a contract to Matthews & Tannert Ltd to undertake the Safe and Warm Scheme Upgrade Scheme together with additional modernisation works at Pattison Street, Shuttlewood.

Moved by Councillor Sandra Peake and seconded by Councillor Duncan McGregor

RESOLVED - That Matthews & Tannert Ltd be appointed to undertake the works as outlined within this report as per the tender sum.

REASON FOR DECISION:

Following a procurement exercise, taking into account both cost and quality criteria, Matthews & Tannert Ltd was assessed as being the most economically advantageous bidder.

OTHER OPTIONS CONSIDERED:

Due to the existing condition of the communal heating system there was potential risk for failure of the boilers. It was not economically viable to replace the boilers and there was further complication due to the deteriorating condition of the existing pipe work infrastructure.
