Purpose

To let a service concession for the installation and management of textile recycling banks on public land.

In 2013, the Council let a service concession for the installation, servicing and on-going management of textile banks on public land.  The sale of the material provides an income which is returned to the Council.        

The form of contract is a framework agreement which permits other neighbouring Councils to set up their own service concession. Other users of the framework may independently issue call-off service concessions at any time within the framework period should they wish to do so.

The service concession has now been re-tendered and this report seeks approval to award the service concession to the preferred supplier.

Decision

RESOLVED that the contract be awarded to the tenderer who submitted the most advantageous tender for the textile recycling bank service concession as ranked 1st in the confidential Appendix B to the report.
