Additional Procurement Forward Plan Report over £500k (2021 - 22)

 

 

Decision

 

a)    To begin each of the procurement processes listed in Appendix 1 to the Cabinet report of 7 September 2021.

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 procurement prior to them formally commencing. Planning procurements ensures:

 

  • effective stakeholder management.
  • efficient commissioning and sourcing.
  • compliance with regulations and contract procedure rules; and
  • best value for money is clearly defined.
