Decision:
Lead paint environmental clean at Barnstaple
Pannier Market - Additional works
The proposed contract for the above will be between £5,000
and £74,999.99.
With this RFW I include a copy of the specification or brief which
has been prepared for this contract and which details the goods,
services and/or works which will be provided.
Specification Attached (and provide a brief description of the
contract below):
Environmental clean to Pannier Market – additional
works
I can also confirm that the contract terms which will be used for
this contract will be the Council’s standard terms and
conditions for goods and services or (where relevant) works or,
where this is not the case, I have sought the approval of Legal
Services to the alternative terms and conditions that I propose to
use for this contract.
In accordance with the Council’s Contract Procedures Rules,
three alternative quotes should be obtained and the lowest
quotation should be accepted.
Reasons for the decision:
Obtaining three price quotes is not
appropriate.
I can confirm that, despite non-compliance with the requirement to
seek at least three quotes, the award of this contract to the above
supplier will be best value for the Council for the following
reason(s):
The Future High Street Fund project that is underway includes works
to Barnstaple Pannier Market. As part of these works lead paint has
been removed from timber trusses resulting in debris containing
lead based paint. As a result the market has been shut. In order to
re-open the market an environmental clean is required to remove the
debris. A previous waiver has been approved for the environmental
clean. This RFW is for additional works regarding the environmental
clean identified subsequent to the first waiver. This RFW is to
approve these additional works without obtaining further quotes.
The reason for the request is to enable the additional works to be
undertaken at the earlier possible opportunity to enable re-opening
of the market. The waiver will avoid the delay of obtaining further
quotes for the clean. Active Environmental Management are a
reputable contractor experienced in this type of work. They have
quoted £10,932.00 + Vat to carry out the additional
works.
