Decision Maker: Deputy Chief Executive
Decision published: 27/02/2019
Effective from: 01/02/2019
Decision:
The Deputy Chief Executive has approved the award of a contract for the provision of Information, Advice and Guidance / Citizen Advice Service (Provision of Generalist Social Welfare Advice, Debt, Welfare Benefit and Housing Advice) to Stockport and Pennine West Citizen’s Advice
Stockport Council is committed to providing high quality, welfare advice services. These services will play an important role in maximising people’s independence and help prevent reliance and dependency on more intensive care and support.
Stockport, Rochdale and Trafford recently tendered together for a new provider. The three councils currently have very different services provided by two providers and Stockport and Trafford also have a mixture of in-house provision.
The three STaR authorities came together to procure a joint contract which will deliver a joint and yet bespoke service offer for each council each with a different budget and different in house provision. There is a shared requirement which is funded equally between all authorities for the telephone and on-line web based offer. Each council specified their individual requirements and budget. Each council will have a separate contract with the provider and will be responsible for paying their own invoice.
A joint bid by Stockport & Pennine West Citizen’s Advice was received which met the specification, provided service improvements and efficiency savings for all authorities. It is an annual contract which can be renewed for two further annual terms. The resulting contract has provided a saving of £26,750 for Stockport and will lead to service improvements for online and telephone advice without impacting on face-to-face advice services. As Stockport Citizens’ Advice were successful there will be no disruption in services when the new contract is in place from 1 April 2019.

Decision:
36 public library
authorities from the North West and Yorkshire regions have joined
together for the purpose of procuring the supply and servicing of
library materials
in the most cost efficient and effective way.
The Deputy Chief Executive has agreed to enter into the following contractual arrangements, at an overall cost to Stockport of £1,056,000 over 4 year period:-
The contract is split
into category Lots which were:
Lot 1 - Adult Fiction books
Lot 2 - Adult Non-Fiction books
Lot 3 - Childrens books
Lot 4 - Music CDs
Lot 5 - Reference Standing
Orders.
Four bids were received and the successful bidders were:
Lot 1 – Bertram Library Services
Lot 2 – Bertram Library Services
Lot 3 – Peters Bookselling Services
Lot 4 – Askews Library Services
Lot 5 – Bertram Library Services
The library book market is challenging, with very little competition, and low risk. There are limited suppliers who can deliver in all Lots, however there are a number of smaller suppliers who could supply in one or more Lots.
A procurement options appraisal was completed, whereby various
procurement options were reviewed and considered. The resulting
recommendation was to undertake a further-competition via an
existing ESPO Framework (376f_18 Library Stock). This
recommendation went out to all Participating Authorities across
both consortia with no objections being received. The further
competition invitation went out via The Chest portal on in November
2018 to all relevant suppliers listed on the ESPO framework. All
invited suppliers expressed their interest in bidding and
subsequently bids from all 4 invited parties were received by the
closing date.
