Purpose of the report

 

To approve the award of a contract to Envirovent for the installation and maintenance of ventilation systems in the Council's Housing Stock. 

 

Decision

 

Cabinet approves the award of a contract to Envirovent for the installation and maintenance of ventilation systems in dwellings owned by South Kesteven District Council with an annual value of up to £150k for a period of 2 years with the option to extend for a further 1 year plus 1 year.

 

Alternative options considered and rejected

 

Consideration had been given to the option of installing products using existing staff, however this was a specialist area requiring expertise from the marketplace to provide the best outcome for the tenant and property. Therefore this option was rejected.

 

Reasons for the decision

 

On receipt of reports of damp and mould within its housing properties, the Council worked with tenants to identify actions to be taken. If not addressed in good time, condensation could lead to problems with damp and mould.

 

Envirovent were ranked number one on the procurement framework for price and quality.
