At its meeting on 16 July 2015, Members were unable to agree the minutes of the Committee meeting, held on 1 April 2015, because of a lack of quorum (four Members) to consider this item. Councillors Barrow, Carter, Hartin and West have since confirmed that those minutes represent a true record of the meeting. Members are, therefore, asked to agree that the minutes, attached marked 3a, of the Strategy and Resources Committee meeting, held on 1 April 2015, be signed by the Chair as a correct record.

Grant of Exemption to Contract Standing Orders

In accordance with Section D of the Fire Authority's Standing Orders relating to Contracts, an exemption from the requirement to obtain competitive tenders for Integrated Risk Management Planning (IRMP) consulting services, at a cost of £37,050 has been agreed. The Chief Fire Officer and Treasurer, after consultation with the Chair, granted the exemption in August 2015 on the basis that the company concerned, Process Evolution Consultancy, represents the best option for the Service.

The purpose of the exemption is to contract Process Evolution to provide a technical review and evaluation of the potential models for changes in working patterns and crewing models for Fire Control and wholetime stations as part of the IRMP Action Plan. The exemption was requested on the basis that Process Evolution have already undertaken the foundation work for this research, as they evaluated the options for change in fire cover, identified in the Service's draft IRMP, and, therefore, have an existing detailed knowledge of the Service. There is also a very limited market for the provision of this type of Service.
