Issue details

Contract variation for additional Locata functionality

Reason for decision
In order to support implementation of the new Fair Share policy, as well as improve operational efficiency within Housing Options, it is necessary to purchase a bolt-on module for the Locata IT system. This can be done via a contract modification, so as to keep the arrangements with Locata under a single agreement. As such Commercial Procurement Unit requests approval to:
a) modify the existing G Cloud Call-Off Contract; and
b) request an exemption to the Councils Contract Procedure Rule’s as this modification is over 10%
