Minutes:
Councillor Tatler (in completing her cover as Deputy Leader and Cabinet Member for Finance, Resources & Reform) introduced a report regarding the procurement of Microsoft Licences for the London Borough of Southwark as part a partner under the Shared Technology Service (STS) Agreement.
In considering the report Cabinet noted that under the STS Inter Authority Agreement Brent had been designated as the contracting authority for contracts procured for delivery of services to STS partners, which included Brent, Lewisham and Southwark. As a result, agreement was being sought for the procurement of a new contract for the provision of Microsoft Licences to Southwark following expiry of the current contract at the end of March 2024. Members noted that whilst the contract would be for the sole use of Southwark, it would also be expected to support the ongoing effective operation of the Shared Service as a whole.
Having noted the exempt information contained within the appendices of the report, Cabinet RESOLVED to approve the award of a contract for the provision of Microsoft Licences for the London Borough of Southwark to Bytes Software Services Limited for a term of three years in the estimated sum of £6,306,449.63.
