Decision

To approve the cost of £80,190 for the renewal of the Learning Pool contract from 1 April 2024 to 31 March 2026.

Reasons for the decision

The Learning Management System ensures that the Council has a skilled workforce that can adequately deliver services.

Alternative options considered

The alternative option of extending the current contract by 1 year only with no option to extend has been considered however it is unlikely that the procurement process could be completed in this time.   Therefore, a new contract for one year including the option to extend by a further year will allow adequate time for the procurement process to be completed.
