Decision details

It is resolved that Council:

(A)        note that because of the unavailability of competitive tenders a satisfactory result would not be achieved by inviting tenders;

(B)        note the reasons why a satisfactory result would not be achieved by inviting tenders are:

(i)          the unavailability of other providers of the TechnologyOne software; and

(ii)         the cost to invite tenders and to implement a potential alternative proprietary solution would provide an uneconomical result for the City; and

Carried unanimously.
