Issue - meetings

RESOLVED that the award of the Stock Condition Survey be awarded to Savills (UK) Limited.

Executive considered a detailed report presented by the Portfolio Holder for Housing which sought Members’ approval to award a contract for a stock condition and energy survey of the Council’s dwelling stock to Savills (UK) Limited.

At its meeting held in May, Executive had approved the commencement of a procurement exercise for a specialist supplier to undertake a 100% stock condition survey and a procurement exercise was completed to secure a contract under the Strategic Asset Management Services Framework. Savills were the only supplier who could meet all the Council’s requirements for a stock condition and energy survey, under a competitive framework.
