Purpose

066-PA-26 Building Safety Levy Software

Decision

To directly award a contract offer to a supplier, as a result of a lack of engagement from the market when asked to tender bids, lack of suppliers able to provide the required services. This is a specialist building levy collections service with very few options in the market. As this piece of work is a government mandated legislative service which is required to be in place by October, and no bids from the procurement process, the decision to direct award a contract to a reliable supplier is the most sensible and viable option

Reasons for the decision

Direct award of government mandates safety levy software

Alternative options considered

RFQ and invitation to tender to market but no bids received
