That the contract award to Civica UK Limited for the provision of the Council’s Financial Management System on a 2+1+1+1 contract at a total cost of £258,685 (should the contract be utilised for the full 5 years), be approved.

The Portfolio Holder for Finance, Town Centres and Growth introduced a report seeking to award a contract  to Civica UK Ltd to provide the Council’s Financial Management system.

Civica had been providing this service for a number of years, therefore the report was seeking renewal of that contract.  This had been brought to Cabinet early as there was uncertainty as to what would happen under the local government reorganisation.  The proposal was to put the five year contract on 2+1+1 years, which also generated a cost saving.

Resolved:    That the contract award to Civica UK Limited for the provision of

the Council’s Financial Management System on a 2+1+1+1 contract at a total cost of £258,685 (should the contract be utilised for the full 5 years), be approved.
