Decision details

The Current leased vehicles are expiring and need to be replaced. Due to workforce growth, budget pressures, health and safety concerns and service demands throughout the borough we are in a position whereby we need to increase our vehicle fleet to enable officers to fully and completely patrol the borough’s parking restrictions. As a result, we are required to source 12 vehicles/cars to enable us to deploy our officers as effectively and efficiently as possible 7 days a week.

This supports the Mayor’s Business Plan via Outcome 1 - Deliver the savings in the Medium-Term Financial Strategy and increase our income, and redesign services to improve efficiency and enhance residents’ experience.

For the reasons set out in the report the Director of Streets and Environment, AGREED:

1.1         the route to market strategy set out in this report which will lead to the   procurement of 12 vehicles on a lease basis for a period of up to 6-years for the Parking Enforcement team via mini competition through The Procurement Partnership (TPPL) framework (TPPLHCCCH03) for an estimated contract value of £260,000 over 6 years.
