26 Contract for Asbestos Removal Works in Residential, School and Corporate Buildings PDF 37 KB
Minutes:
The Cabinet Member for Housing presented a report on the proposed procurement of a new contract for the provision of asbestos removal works in residential Council properties, schools and corporate buildings.
The current provision was not compliant with recently implemented internal Council rules, and had therefore been reviewed. The new contractual arrangements were expected to bring about continued efficiency, elimination of waste and improved value for money through market-competitive pricing, contractual improvements and process redesign.
Cabinet resolved to:
(i) Agree the procurement of a contract for the provision of asbestos removal works in residential council properties, schools and corporate buildings in accordance with the strategy set out in the report; and
(ii) Authorise the Interim Director of Housing, in consultation with the Cabinet Member for Housing, the Chief Finance Officer and the Head of Legal and Democratic Services, to conduct the procurement and award the contract to the successful bidder.
