Purpose

This Procurement Strategy recommends a 12
month extension of the pipe replacement pilot contract. The
extension is intended to facilitate the continued Planned
Preventative Maintenance (PPM) programme across the borough’s
housing properties to replace pipework. This has the potential to
reduce future repairs demand.

This is a limited value award to enable work to proceed during the
summer months. The value of this extension is up to £500,000
for the 12 month period.

Decision

To extend the contract with
Fraser Water Services Limited for a maximum value of £500,000
and a contract period of 1 August 2023 to 31 July 2024
