Cabinet Member decision ECR01 19-20 approved the commencement of a procurement process in November 2019 for services to help deliver a replacement business management system for the Council. Whilst the project has progressed as planned, a review of the scope of remaining work and the specific skills required has indicated that additional resources and specialist services are required to bring the project to completion.
The Cabinet Member for Economy and Corporate Resources will be asked to approve the additional measures and resources needed and to delegate authority to the Director of Finance and Support Services to procure the necessary service support.
The additional resources required will be funded from the service transformation budget.
