Agenda item

That the intention to commence tendering for the following contracts be endorsed:

1.  Locality Based Youth Support.

2.  Integrated Cardiac Prevention Programme.

A report was considered that sought the Cabinet’s endorsement to commence tendering for two contracts in excess of £250,000 to be let during the 2016/17 financial year.  The contracts were additional to those already endorsed by Cabinet in April 2016.

The first contract was to deliver local based youth provision to support positive activities and early help for 11-19 year olds.  This followed a review of existing contracts and would run from January 2017 to March 2019 with a total contract value of £281,250.  The second contract was an integrated cardiac prevention programme to increase the offer and uptake of Health Checks and reduce the risk factors for cardiovascular disease in at least 800 people per annum.  The contract had an estimated value of £150,000 per annum for three years with an option to extend for a further year.  After due consideration, the Cabinet endorsed the commencement of tendering for the two contracts.

Resolved –  That the intention to commence tendering for the following contracts be endorsed:

1.  Locality Based Youth Support.

2.  Integrated Cardiac Prevention Programme.
