Decision:

That further to Contract Standing Orders 2.1 (5) approval be granted to accept a single tender from GB-Sol Ltd for a 21.85KW solar generation scheme at a cost of £69,956.70.

Reason for Decision:

The decision will enable an alfresco café extension and solar energy scheme to be implemented at the Gnoll.  A single tender is proposed in this instance as a large part of the scheme is of a specialist nature of which the Council currently has limited experience.  This makes it difficult to adequately specify with certainty the associated technical requirements which can be overcome by negotiating and directly contracting with an experienced solar energy contractor.  The experience gained will inform the Council’s procurement of future schemes.

Implementation of Decision:

The decision is proposed for implementation after the three day call in period.
