Urgent Item - Appointment of a Contractor - 11th Floor, Thames Tower
To consider the appointment of a contractor to undertake works to the 11th Floor Thames Tower.
The Chair has authorised this for the following reason:
“Due to an urgent decision being needed, this item has been added as it would not be practicable to delay consideration until the next meeting of the Commercial Assets Sub-Committee.”
Minutes:
The Sub-Committee considered the appointment of a contractor to undertake works to the 11th Floor, Thames Tower. Works were required to put the space in lettable condition as there were interested parties.
A number of contractors had been invited to tender for the works, and the Sub-Committee were presented with the two best tenders. The Sub-Committee were provided with a list of anticipated works to be included. The Sub-Committee felt that there was sufficient interest in the space to justify approving the works.
The Committee resolved to:
1. Agree the appointment of the preferred contractor to undertake the Category A works to the 11th Floor, Thames Tower
2. Approve the Council entering into a JCT Minor Works Contract with the preferred contractor
3. Authorise the Group Head of Corporate Governance to enter into the necessary documentation.
