Decision details

The Council is currently considering a supplier for window cleaning for its property at Grafton House. The previous contract ended in March 2023 and it is proposed to agree further provision of service with the current supplier for a 1 year period, as this is in the Council’s best economical interests whilst options for a longer term provision are considered.

Without this additional provision by the previous contractor, the Council is not maintaining its facilities as a landowner [and in accordance with its obligations as landlord of the property]. The value of this contract is £13,340. The decision is therefore to proceed with the contract with Shirley Shelley for 1 year.

Procurement officers have been consulted on the decision process around the continuation of the window cleaning contract for this 1 year period and are in agreement.

To agree further provision of service with the current supplier, Shirley Shelley, for a 1 year period.

Reason:

To maintain the Council’s facilities and fulfil the Council’s obligations as landlord of the property.
