Report ES18036

From the Contracts Register presented to the Contracts Sub-Committee on 29th March 2018, Members received an extract on Environment contracts. A further copy provided under Part 2 proceedings included commentary for each contract.

Key Environment information from the Part 1 extract comprised:

Environment has 23 (~10%) of the Council’s 238(£50k plus) contracts

Since March, the following notable activity had taken place:

·  The major and minor highway works contracts had been awarded to JB Riney for an initial term of eight years;

·  Purchase orders had been placed with AECOM for the Highways Engineering Consultancy for 2018/19 with future options for the service being considered including working through JB Riney's supply chain (consultancy services was identified in the PIN for the new Highways contracts), as well as other existing Frameworks;

·  The current major works contractor, FM Conway, would continue to work in the borough until early 2019 to complete a number of larger projects, including Beckenham and Bromley town centres; and

·  The Depot Security Contract is included as part of Lot 2 (Waste Management), of the Environmental Services contracts currently out to tender.

For the contract on Supply of Contract Hire (Lease) cars currently provided by Crown Commercial Suppliers - Vehicle Lease Framework, Report ES18036 highlighted a correction to the extract, specifically that the CCS framework RM3710 is used, which was extended for one year from 15^th May 2018 to

15^th May 2019. Authorisation to continue such use was given by DOE in an exemption (‘waiver’) document on 7^th December 2017 and options for future commissioning arrangements are being considered; recommendations would be reported to Members later in the year.

RESOLVED that the Part 1 £50k+ Contracts Register (which also forms part of the Council’s commitment to data transparency) appended to Report ES18036 be noted.
