MINUTES OF THE ORDINARY MEETING OF COUNCIL
18 SEPTEMBER 2012
The City’s officers understood that ACEAM was available to contract under either the
WALGA panel contract for Asset Management Consultancy Services and the Department of
Local Government IPR Consultancy Panel. After ACEAM had commenced this project and
held the first workshop it was discovered that both panels had expired and were in the
process of being renewed.
The fundamental benefit of this project approach enables the grass root development of the
City of Stirling specific service oriented Strategic Asset Management Framework in line with
the Asset Management Policy and Strategy.
Council is required to approve all contacts exceeding $100,000 in accordance with the City’s
Purchasing Policy and Delegation Register.
As this is a contract over $100,000 the City’s Internal Auditor is in the process of conducting
a probity check.
Financial Implications
The $160,000 required for this contact will be funded by $80,000 from the Asset
Management Business Unit budget and $80,000 from the Strategic and Business Planning
budget.
