The current contract for mobile phone
communications expired on 30 January 2023. Since then the Council
have been procuring mobile phones on an ad-hoc basis each year.
This has led to the expenditure becoming non-compliant as the
expenditure has not been aggregated and the CPSOs have not been
followed
Decision: Extend current contract to April 2026 to co-term with our
other communications contracts.
Reason: Extending to 2026 will enable us to assess our entire
Unified Comms estate and then go out to market with the whole of
our infrastructure contracts to ensure the best deal for
Dacorum.
Decision type: Non-key
Decision status: Recommendations Approved
Notice of proposed decision first published: 24/01/2025
Decision due: 14 Jan 2025 by Strategic Director (People and Transformation)
