Peter Lawrenson, Principal Engineer, Streetpride, to report.
- to gain consent to accept a single quotation for a technical and product information system.
Minutes:
Consideration was given to a report, presented by the Principal Engineer, requesting, in accordance with Standing Orders Nos. 38.1 and 38.2, the exemption from Standing Order No 47.6.2 to enable the acceptance of a single quotation for a technical and product information system due to there being only one suitable supplier.
It was explained that technical staff needed ready access to a library of technical and product information and that paper copies and storage were expensive.
Consideration was therefore given to a website library service through subscription which could be accessed by staff whether working in the office or from home.
It was emphasised that this was a very specialised market and that there was currently only one supplier.
Resolved:- That, in accordance with Standing Orders Nos. 38.1 and 38.2, approval be given to exempt the procurement of a technical and product information system from Standing Order No. 47.6.2 and that the quotation from IHS (Global) be accepted.
