Issue - meetings

Received a report from the Corporate Director of Customer Services concerning procurement proposals to deliver Information and Communication Technology (ICT) as part of the One Barking and Dagenham programme.

Agreed, in order to assist the Council to achieve all of its Community Priorities to the procurement of support through a ‘mixed economy’ approach using our in-house ICT team, partners and external contractors, as outlined in the report.  The mixed economy route provides an appropriate level of capacity to deliver, return on investment and management of risk.

(* The Chair agreed that these items could be considered as a matter of urgency under the provisions of Section 100B(4)(b) of the Local Government Act 1972.)
