Decision details

The Director Finance Services presented the report which explained that the current contract for the supply of Revenues and Benefits software was expiring.  A tender exercise for the procurement of a new contract for the supply of the software had been completed and Civica selected as the preferred bidder.  The contract terms and conditions were being finalised prior to signing the contract.  It was confirmed that the system would be held on the Borough’s server rather than hosted by Civica.

RESOLVED:   1)         That the signing of the contract with Civica for the supply of Revenues and Benefits software for the initial seven year contract term be approved, and

2)         That the signing of any subsequent contract extensions, which may be multiple extensions of varying periods up to a total of a further eight years, making the maximum contact length 15 years in total be approved.

Reason for Decision

To ensure that a contract for the Revenues and Benefits software is in place and any subsequent contract extensions can be implemented.
