[To note the tendering procedures for major capital projects.]

John Thompson, Head of Procurement, presented the report on an update for tendering procedures for major capital projects.

The group were advised that if the anticipated value of a contact would be between £10,000 and £50,000 then three quotes are requested and taken to procurement to ensure that the Council would be getting the lowest price and best value for money.

Councillor Alan Butt advised that he was keen for feedback on how contracts for major projects compliance were checked and raised concerns on how the tendering contracts and sub-contractors were managed and selected.

Resolved:

1. That the tendering procedures for major council projects be noted.
2. That the Crown Commercial Service Procurement Policy note 8/16: Standard Selection Questionnaire (SSQ) template be noted.

That the health and safety and equality evaluation questions be noted.
