Decision:

RESOLVED - That: Accept the results of the tendering and moderation exercise and award the contract to the successful contractor.

Reasons for the decision:

Option 1 - Accept the results of the tendering and moderation exercise and award the contract to the successful contractor – Corlett Electrical, providing a new safe installation that should last in excess of 20 years and increase the budget provision previously approved by CIPB.
Option 2 - Undertake another tender exercise – not considered a viable option as this scheme was already delayed 12 months due to the pandemic and condition of the electrical installation, which is reaching the end of its serviceable life. Not sufficient time to undertake another tender exercise and complete works prior to commencement of the September 2022 school term.
Option 3 - Do nothing – not considered a viable option due to the poor condition of the electrical installation, which is reaching the end of its serviceable life.
