To waive the request for waiver and award the contract to Kovia Ltd in relation to Asbestos management surveys across NDC assets

In accordance with the Council’s Contract Procedures Rules, three alternative quotes should be obtained and the lowest quotation should be accepted.

I can confirm that I have sought advice from Legal Services and we have agreed that it is appropriate that this requirement be waived for the following reason(s):

It was not appropriate to use the portal for this procurement as we were very limited for time, the value was low and we had defined local contractors who have quoted for the works.

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):
Four quotes received, based on specification of works produced by NDC Property Services.
