Decision details

The Cabinet considered a report of the Deputy Chief Executive that sought approval to enter into a call-off contract with Access UK Limited to provide the Mosaic Social Care System, including Workflow API, together with any additional modules and services for Mosaic, subject to budget approval.

The current contract for Mosaic was due to expire on 16^th July 2023; however, the Council required continued use of the system and, therefore, a replacement contract was required to commence immediately following the expiry of the current contract.

The purpose of this report therefore was to seek approval to procure a new support plan for the Hosted Managed Service of the Customers Integrated Adult and Children’s Social Care System under an existing Framework Agreement for 3 years with the option to extend twice on an annual basis (3+1+1).

Options/alternatives considered:

Option A – to approve the recommendations in the report

Option b – to do nothing. This may ultimately result in significant increased costs for the Council, which are associated with buying a Business-Critical system.

Resolved:

That the Cabinet would consider the commercially sensitive information contained at item 15 of the agenda before making a decision.
