The procurement strategy for both professional services and the work’s contractor was approved at the Procurement Board meeting on the 9th December 2020, following which, the design fees for the main professional services had been sought; the architectural lead external fees, via Bloom Procurement and the SCC internal fees co-ordinated by the Engineering & Design section. The recommendation within the report dealt with the external fees for the RIBA3 work stage tasks: Review Stakeholder feedback; Refine & develop the brief; Risk and mitigation action development; Material strategy developed; Layout & elevations drawings; Pool filtration strategy fixed; Sustainability strategy agree; Project cost refinement; Documents to support Sport England funding application provided, and Planning application submitted. Page 1 The proposed external designer, GT3 Architects, was based in the north east and had submitted its prosed Social Value officer prior to the current lockdown restrictions. As a result, officers would discuss with them what they might be able to offer in practice at the current time. In the meantime, steps would be taken to ensure that the promised donation of £500 to the Trussell Trust was directed to Salford. Members of the board welcomed the report and progress being made to bring forward this project which was very important for the whole of Salford but particularly so for the residents of Pendleton. RESOLVED, THAT: The contract for Pendleton Leisure Centre RIB3 external design fees be awarded to GT3 Architects via Bloom Procurement, with a full contract value of £225,529. 6. Request for Approval – Contract Extension – Strategic Development of VCSEs As outlined in minute 2 above, Councillor Kelly declared an interest in this item as Lead Member for Housing. However, she was able to remain and participate fully in the meeting. Consideration was given to a report of the Strategic Directors People and Place seeking approval to extend the contract for Strategic Development of the VCSE sector through engagement, support and influence, and promoting volunteering in Salford. Salford Community and Voluntary Services (SCVS) was the city-wide membership organisation for the Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprise sector (VCSE), providing specialist information, advice, development support and opportunities for influence and collaboration within the city. The document pack included a comprehensive presentation on the April – September 2020 highlights, which showed that the contract continued to provide good value for money, and even more so since the pandemic had begun. SCVS were currently also focused on supporting residents and other VCSE organisations through the COVID19 pandemic, providing invaluable support to the city’s humanitarian response, the City Council’s engagement and communications activities, and coordinating volunteer support for a wider range of activities, including testing. A further 12 months’ extension to the contract would allow a soft touch review to be carried out in coming months ahead of a further report being presented to Procurement Board with recommendations for service delivery beyond 31st March 2022. Members of the board commended the outstanding support that SCVS continued to provide to individuals and organisations across the city in very difficult circumstances and asked for their comments and gratitude to be passed on. RESOLVED, THAT: the contract with Salford Community and Voluntary Services (SCVS), for Strategic Development of the VCSE sector through engagement, support and influence, and promoting volunteering in Salford, be extended for a period of 12 months at a cost of £265,568.
