RESOLVED:

(a) To approve the procurement strategy to use The National Framework for Energy Performance Contracting to appoint a contractor, via a mini competition, to carry out high-level appraisals, investment-grade proposals and capital works to decarbonise Council buildings for an initial period of 36 months, with the option to extend the contract for up to a further 36 months. The estimated value of the contract over the 72 months (6 years) was up to £30.0m, subject to funding.

(b) To delegate the decision to award a contract for an initial three-year period, with an optional extension of three years, to the Director of Planning and Development (Joint Acting Corporate Director Community Wealth Building), following consultation with the Executive Member for Environment, Air Quality and Transport.

 

 

Reasons for the decision – The use of the framework would enable the Council to appoint a contractor that possessed the relevant skills and expertise required to successfully deliver the decarbonisation projects needed to meet the Council’s 2030 net zero carbon target, subject to funding.
