Decision taken
Cabinet agreed the variation to the Equans contract which would change the way payments were made.
Reason for decision
In February 2023, Cabinet agreed to award a contract to Equans for planned housing works. The scope of the contract includes replacement kitchens, bathrooms, windows and roofs.
An opportunity had arisen to change contract prices in relation to the preliminaries and scaffolding costs which result in a significant saving. Full details were included in the Part 2 report.
