115 Procurement of electricity supply PDF 50 KB
Report of the Strategic Director of Housing and Customer Services
Presented by the Corporate Portfolio Holder
Minutes:
The Head of Finance presented the report to Members.
She advised that the report was seeking approval to commence the procurement of and subsequently award a contract for the supply of electricity from September 2020 to October 2024. She informed Members that it was being carried out in advance as ESPO required a contractual commitment from organisations in order to maximise their purchasing power and the resultant procurement savings that could be achieved.
It was moved by Councillor R Blunt, seconded by Councillor R D Bayliss and
RESOLVED THAT:
Authority be delegated to the Strategic Director of Housing and Customer Services, in consultation with the Corporate Portfolio Holder, to award the contract for the provision of electricity.
Reason for decision: The level of expenditure on this contract exceeds the authority threshold in the Scheme of Delegation.
