Decision details

Executive considered the report of the Portfolio Holder – Housing that sought approval for the award of the contract for Electrical Works in council owned domestic properties for Bolsover District Council. Efficiency East Midlands’ Framework for regional provision of Electrical works had been used to engage a suitable contractor.

Moved by Councillor Sandra Peake and seconded by Councillor Duncan McGregor

RESOLVED – That:

(1)       Executive agree to awarding the contract, within the Framework, to Farrendale Ltd.

(2)       Progress on this contract is reported through the Housing Stock Group.

(3)       The Director of Development is given delegated power to add and remove any of the six other Framework Contractors, as required to meet operational requirements, within the terms of the Framework.

REASON FOR DECISION:

The procurement of these works had been undertaken in compliance of standard council procedures.

OTHER OPTIONS CONSIDERED:

The alternative option of carrying out a full competitive tender process by Bolsover District Council was rejected because the Framework attracted a broader range of contractors.
