Legal Justification

Continuing the current framework will facilitate creation of an asset register for the upcoming procurement exercise for this contract due to take place in 2022/23. Without this information, any procurement exercise would require potential tenderers to visit & survey over 100 sites. The Council understands visiting this many sites as part of a procurement exercise is prohibitive and uneconomical for suppliers to effectively tender for. As the current contractor is familiar with the sites & associated equipment, they are best placed to provide the asset information. It is envisaged an alternative provider would be required to start from scratch, whereas the incumbent contractor already possesses a lot of the information already. Therefore, procuring this service from alternative provider would likely invoke additional cost to the Council and require a period of longer than 12 months before the Council could run a procurement exercise.
