MINUTES OF PROCEEDINGS The minutes of the meeting held on 28 November 2018 were approved as a correct record. 4. MATTERS ARISING There were no matters arising. ITEMS FOR DECISION – PART 1 5. REQUEST FOR APPROVAL – CONTRACT AWARD – ELECTORAL SERVICES PRINTING Consideration was given to a report of the Director of Service Reform seeking approval to award the contract for Electoral Services printing. It was confirmed that ERS Limited had provided a very satisfactory service in the course of the current contract and had built in Social Value and lowered the price in its tender submission. Social value would be closely monitored throughout the contract. Page | 1 Page 1 The board noted that the company was based in London and wondered what might be done to develop the market locally, especially given that the total value of the contract across the region could be well in excess of £1million. With this in mind, the Electoral Services Manager confirmed that he would be happy to discuss this with AGMA colleagues to ascertain what potential capacity and capability there might be among local printing and reprographic companies. RESOLVED: THAT, a 24 months contract be awarded to ERS Limited, for the provision of Electoral Services printing, with an estimated average value of £145,000 per annum. 6. REQUEST FOR APPROVAL TO APPOINT – CENTENARY CIRCLE AND CENTENARY WAY – HIGHWAY IMPROVEMENT WORKS Consideration was given to a report of the Strategic Director Place seeking approval to appoint a contractor to carry out the works for the Centenary Circle and Centenary Way highway safety scheme project and approve the fees for the additional required works and services. It was confirmed that there had been a number of incidents recently where street furniture had been struck by vehicles. These incidents tended not to be reported or registered by the police so the drivers responsible were not identified and costs were not recovered. The board was informed that there was an approved Highways Block 3 capital grant allocation for the works for 2018/19 so the timing of the works was critical. Three companies had submitted tenders and these had all been fully evaluated. The board had previously queried the level of fees and depot overheads in relation to works carried out by Urban Vision but was assured that direct allocation of works had a number of benefits. RESOLVED: THAT, (1) Urban Vision Highway Services be appointed to carry out the Centenary Circle and Centenary Way highway safety scheme works at a target price of £216,459.19, and (2) the following additional fees associated with the above works be approved: Supervision and Road Safety Audits - £13,605.19 – Urban Vision Professional Services, and Carriageway coring and material testing for Tar content – £600.00 - MATest Midlands Limited. 7. REQUEST FOR APPROVAL – INSURANCE POLICY AND COVER RENEWAL EXPENDITURE – LIABILITY, PROPERTY & MOTOR FLEET INSURANCE ARRANGEMENTS Consideration was given to a report of the City Solicitor seeking approval of the 2019 expenditure of the catastrophe cover insurance for the council’s main classes of insurance including liability, property and motor fleet. It was explained that whilst the 2019 liability and motor premiums remained unchanged, the overall 3% increase when compared with 2018 figures reflected an increase in the volume of property assets that required cover. Page | 2 Page 2 Discussions had been held across the region about the potential savings from aggregating procurement but it was accepted that (a) high value claim(s) from any one authority would impact negatively on the others. RESOLVED: THAT, the renewal expenditure for 2019 for catastrophe cover for the Council’s main classes of insurance, including liability, property and motor fleet, be approved.

Background, The Storage Area Network stores all data held by the City Council and organisations supported by SCC ICT Services. This includes user files, servers and system data for all services, therefore this is a critical element of the ICT Data Centre infrastructure. The current platform had a similar refresh 3 years ago with the original platform installed in 2012 as part of a wider total transformation of the Data Centre infrastructure. The partial refresh allows for new controllers and End of Support elements to be changed whilst keeping the majority of the disk drives in place and purchasing support and maintenance up front. This attracts larger discounts from the manufacture than simply extending the maintenance agreements breaking even after two years typically. SCC ICT Services are currently architecting the next generation of Data Centre infrastructure which will based on a migration to Public Cloud, this will likely take at Page 6 least three years to migrate to therefore the refresh of the storage area network within the data centre is required to support the current architecture. 2.
