Short-Term Contract Variation to Council Repairs Contract (LOT 3) New!
Decision maker:
Cabinet Member for Housing and Homelessness
Decision due:
May 2024
Lead officer:
Nick Marco-Wadey
Notice of proposed decision first published: 03/01/2024
This decision will be taken under urgency procedures.
Reason for urgency: The repairs service is continuing to work through a backlog of work orders to bring void properties back to a lettable standard. With this, the repairs service has identified 85 properties, across all geographic patches, to which they are aiming to bring back to let within a 17-week period (This will involve completing 5 properties a week) commencing in January 2024. To achieve this outcome however, we need to configure our supply chain so that it can respond at pace to this urgent requirement. To do this, we will need to ensure that the contractor is paid rates that are in keeping with current market demands and provide the contractor with additional resource in the form of a supervisor and an administrator to effectively co-ordinate these urgent works. This contract variation needs to take place in January 2024 and therefore an urgent key decision is needed to facilitate this.
