Award of Contract
Exempt report of the Corporate Director (Resources, Environment and Cultural Services) providing details of the procurement process for this project.
(1) The Decision Taken
RESOLVED:
That the Cabinet agrees with the recommendation of the Member Procurement Board to award the contract for the Multi Storey Car Park to Bourne Parking Ltd (part of Bourne Construction Engineering Ltd) (Bourne).
(2) Reasons for the Decision
The Hatfield Renewal Partnership identified a need to construct a 600 space car park, unlocking other existing surface car parking spaces for development. A £6M capital budget existed for the project with the Hertfordshire Local Enterprise Partnership to fund £4.8M and the remaining £1.2M to come from the Council’s own capital resources.
A two stage procurement route was being followed which meant that pricing was in terms of an overheads and profits percentage, rather than an absolute amount and this allowed careful attention to be paid to design that would be much more difficult under a fixed price bid.
