Approval to submit a commercial bid for integrated facilities management to be delivered by ODSTL in accordance with Shareholder Agreement Reserved Matters

Decision Maker: Cabinet Member for Citizen Focused Services and Council Companies

Decision status: Recommendations Approved

Is Key decision?: No

Is subject to call in?: Yes

Purpose:

Approval as Shareholder of ODSTL to submit a bid for a contract to deliver integrated facilities management over a period of 3 years plus a possible extension of a further 2 years, estimated value £1.5m per year new revenue.

Decision:

The Cabinet Member for Citizen Focused Services and Council Companies decides as follows:

1.    Approve the proposal to submit a bid for an Integrated Facilities Management contract for a leading retail park, at an estimated value of £1.5m per annum for a period of 3 years plus a possible extension of a further 2 years

Reasons for the decision:

The contract is strategically aligned with the ODS Integrated Facilities Management growth plan for 2026/27 (under the oxfordworkplace banner) supporting revenue growth beyond the £1m target and falls squarely within our existing service capability. The opportunity represents a significant multi-year contract aligned with ODS's growth strategy in commercial IFM services.

 

Alternative options considered:

The alternative option is not to bid. If this is the decision, then ODSTL will lose a potential opportunity to deliver a key part of its ODSTL Business Plan.
