Issue - decisions

Under the OPCR project there is a need for specialist hardware to extend the network. After running a competition on CCS framework (Tech2 Products), it was established that the hardware was too specialist to be purchased as one lot via typical resellers on a framework to ensure competition, in budget and value for money and needed to be lotted in to 5, 3 quote tenders to specialist suppliers. This was approved at CPG. Having run the 5 tenders via Pro-Contract portal, we have established competition and the following lot is in budget but above £100,000 and requires approval:
Lot 4 – Stordis Limited.
There may be slight variation in final parts needed or if quotes need to be revalidated, so we have added a 10% contingency.
