RESOLVED:
That Cabinet:
1) Approves the direct award to Project Centre Limited of a contract for Highways & Transportation Professional Services under the Ealing Framework Lot 3 General Engineering for a period of 3 years and 5 months at the estimated cost of £909k;
2) Furthermore, agrees to direct award WSP UK Ltd a contract for Highways & Transportation Professional Services under the Ealing Framework Lot 1 Bridge Management and Lot 3 General Engineering as a backup contractor for a period of 3 years and 5 months at the estimated cost of £212k;
Reasons for decision
Cabinet gave its approval to the direct award of contracts under a procurement framework for the provision of Highways and Transportation Professional Services, which included design work for town centre and public realm schemes, highways, parking, transport, planning services and traffic management projects.
Alternative options considered and rejected
Cabinet could have decided for the Council to conduct its own tender process but considered that this would have been unlikely to achieve any greater value for money.
