Issue - meetings

To consider a report of the Portfolio Holder for Finance, Commercial and Assets.

Decision

That the procurements and awards of proposed contracts (as set out in appendix A of the report) be approved.

In giving the approval, members were approving known/likely procurement set for implementation during 2020/21 (or as specifically noted otherwise) on terms to be agreed by the delegated officer, Corporate Director or Portfolio Holder for each arrangement.

Procurements exceeding the key decision threshold which are not yet identified will be subject to a separate report or approval during 2020/21, as need arises.

Reason for the Decision

Cabinet is required to approve all key decisions with financial consequences of £500K or more.  It is also good governance to provide cabinet with a summary of all proposed procurements prior to them formally commencing.

The Portfolio Holder for Finance, Commercial and Assets presented a report providing notice of the planned/known procurement activities that Cabinet would need to make decisions on for 2020/21.  He continued that the Procurement team had worked with colleagues across the directorates to review the contracts database and to establish a programme for 2020-2021.

The details of the contracts within that programme were set out within the appendix to the report. However as the service and transformation plans progressed it might be necessary to bring further requests to future meeting of Cabinet.
