2 June 1998 - Stirling Council - Decisions On Line

well as Scottish Office Guidance on the key principles of conduct of competition.
These longer term contracts would introduce greater value for money for the
Council than the previous contracts in terms of some improved unit pricing,
higher quality specification and reduction in the previous use of annual officer
resources. The contracts represented a major investment for the Council - some
£1.5M of the £5M HRA Capital Programme.
“Break“ clauses had been included within each of the contracts to allow the
Council the flexibility to reappraise its strategic investment decisions and to
address any difficulties in supplier perfomance.
The Committee were provided with full details of the results of the tender
financial and quality evaluation process.
Decision
The Committee agreed:-
(1) that the contract for the supply of kitchen fitments be awarded to Joinery
and Timber Creations (65) Ltd. at an estimated annual cost of £487,000;
(2) that the contract for the supply of sanitary fittings be awarded to Graham
Group PLC at an estimated annual cost of £691,000; and
(3) that the contract for the supply of thermoplastic faced external door kits be
awarded to Intron Ltd. T/A Homesafe Doors at an estimated annual cost of
£650,000.
