i)               Approves the award of contract for the construction of a Natural Turf Rugby Sports Pitch and Sports Training Area with Drainage System at Gladstone Park, Dollis Hill, London, NW2 to Cleveland Land Services in the sum of £447,347.25.

The Council requires the provision of construction of a Natural Turf Rugby Sports Pitch and Sports Training Area with Drainage System at Gladstone Park. Officers have undertaken a procurement exercise and identified Cleveland Land Services as the contractor providing the most advantageous offer in accordance with agreed evaluation criteria, and therefore recommend award of a contract to this contractor.

Officers considered whether the Construction of a Natural Turf Rugby Sports Pitch and Sports Training Area with Drainage System could be provided by the Council itself, but concluded that it is best provided by a contractor.

Officers reviewed a range of procurement options including the use of a framework but considered that a tender process was the most appropriate means of procuring the contract.
