    19/00016 - Procurement and award of contract/s for Highway Arboriculture Programmed Works

    Decision Maker: Cabinet Member for Planning, Highways, Transport and Waste

    Decision status: Recommendations Approved

    Is Key decision?: Yes

    Is subject to call in?: Yes

    Purpose:

    Proposed decision to re-procure and delegate to the Director of Highways, Transportation and Waste to award contract/s for the Highway Arboriculture Programmed Works Service (All Districts within Kent). Contract start date: September 1st, 2019.

     

    Background - The current contract expires 31st August 2019. Accordingly, in order to ensure a seamless service remains in place a new procurement is required. Ongoing procurement enables market testing and ensures that the rates KCC pay for the work are competitive and reflective of the current market.

     

     

    The proposed decision meets the objectives of ‘Increasing Opportunities, Improving Outcomes: Kent County Council’s Strategic Statement (2015-2020)’ because the arboriculture works service is a safety critical service that keeps Kent’s roads moving and assists economic growth.

     

    Decision:

    As Cabinet Member for Planning Highways Transport and Waste I agree to:

     

    (a)  approve the procurement of the Arboriculture Programmed Works Contract and in consultation with the Cabinet Member for Planning, Highways, Transportation and Waste delegate authority to the Director of Highways, Transportation and Waste to approve the award of the subsequent contract to the preferred bidder; and

     

    (b)  in consultation with the Cabinet Member for Planning, Highways, Transportation and Waste delegate authority to the Director of Highways, Transportation and Waste to award extensions of the Arboriculture Programmed Works Contract in accordance with the possible extension clauses within the contract.
