Exempt report of the Executive Director (Housing and Communities) detailing the procurement process and the award of contract for these works.
(1) The Decision Taken
RESOLVED:
That the Cabinet agrees the contract for the provision of external aids and adaptations to Council properties (housing) be awarded to Gracelands Complete Maintenance Services Ltd.
(2) Reasons for the Decision
The work involved external works ranging from grab rails to concrete ramps and the tenders submitted were assessed on a combination of priced schedule of rates items and a range of other criteria such as health and safety and quality assurance.
All work would be contained within the current Aids and Adaptations budget for external works (£80,000) and with individual works ranging from £150 to £4,000, historically approximately 82 tenants would benefit from this work each year.
