Decision Maker: Assistant Director for Transformation and Resources

Decision status: Recommendations Approved

Is Key decision?: No

Is subject to call in?: No

Decision:

To extend Mace's contract for in-situ capital project management services and duties in the amount of £31,882 under Contract Standing Order (CSO) 10.02.1(a)

Reasons for the decision:

To complete the business case for the Future Ways of Working Programme which has already commenced with the qualified and skilled external consultant resource (Mace Limited).

It is proposed that Mace Limited’s contract is extended as Mace has a vast amount of knowledge on the strategic project brief, interrelated workstreams including the Council’s Future Ways of Working programme and the Wider Wood Green Regeneration; the team proposed have excellent relationships with some of the key stakeholders, in addition to experience and knowledge on project start-up, design management and Council sign off procedures.

Mace was previously appointed through to Mar 2017 under Contract Standing Order (CSO) 7.01 (b) for the value of £91,611.00 for project management services to initiate the project. This appointment has now come to an end. The requirement for an extension has been determined due to the delays and additional work required with the service leads to conclude the business case and enable the council to make a decision on the next steps.
