Terms of Reference

 

 

Responsibilities

 

The committee is established to assist the chief executive to undertake the management procedure of ensuring sound procurement processes are followed in relation to procurement of goods and services necessary to deliver on the work programme and operations outlined in the council’s adopted Annual plan.

 

It will ensure that reasonable purchasing procedures have been followed in awarding contracts and will provide an efficient mechanism for documenting the approvals for those contracts.

 

Within a framework where contracts are an operational matter delegated to the chief executive, this committee will consider all contracts beyond the chief executive’s financial delegations.  The chief executive may refer contracts within his financial delegations which are sensitive or may impact on the reputation of the council.

 

The chief executive has power to award contracts up to $20 million alone and the power to award contracts up to $22.5 million jointly with the mayor and Finance and Performance Committee chair.

 

The committee will have responsibility for:

 

·    awarding of contracts of $22.5 million or greater

·    awarding of contracts less than $22.5 million which are sensitive or may impact on the reputation of the council if the chief executive refers the matter to the committee

·    oversight over the procurement processes and procedures.

 

From time to time the committee may advise the chief executive and council on changes to the procurement and contracts probity procedures.

 

Powers

 

All powers necessary to perform the committee’s responsibilities.

 

Except:

 

(a)     powers that the Governing Body cannot delegate or has retained to itself (section 2)

·         Those who need to be present for one confidential item can remain only for that item and must leave the room for any other confidential items.

·         In any case of doubt, the ruling of the chairperson is final.

 

Members of the meeting

 

·         The members of the meeting remain (all Governing Body members if the meeting is a Governing Body meeting; all members of the committee if the meeting is a committee meeting).

·         However, standing orders require that a councillor who has a pecuniary conflict of interest leave the room.

·         All councillors have the right to attend any meeting of a committee and councillors who are not members of a committee may remain, subject to any limitations in standing orders.

·         Other staff who need to because of their role may remain.

Information report - group source procurement update

 

File No.: CP2018/14241

 

Te take mō te pūrongo / Purpose of the report

1.       To provide an update to the Strategic Procurement Committee on Group Source Procurement for FY18.

Whakarāpopototanga matua / Executive summary

2.       This information report aims to provide public visibility of information circulated to committee members. No decisions are required.

What we achieved: FY18 Overview

3.       FY18 was a strong year for Group Source procurement activities. It was the first year where Auckland Transport (AT), Auckland Council (AC) and Watercare all had pipelines built and reported on benefits. It was also the first time we were able to report on bottom line operational cost savings across the group.

4.       With every year the programme continues to grow, and collaboration between the procurement teams in the group becomes stronger. In each financial year of the Group Source programme we have improved on what we achieved as a group in total benefits confirmed.

5.       A highlight for the Group Source programme was the adoption of the Group Source Procurement Policy and the Sustainable Procurement Framework. These policy documents provide a clear direction for Group Source and support us working together now and into the future.

6.       Sustainable procurement was a focus of procurement activities during the year. Some examples for FY18 include:

·    Sunnynook Dry Pond Upgrade: Clay excavated from the site and repurposed as fill to Wairau Intermediate School grounds to upgrade their sports fields.

·    Skype for business: allows employees (and Local Board members) to collaborate without needing to travel contributing to reduced travel and a reduced carbon footprint.

·    Awakeri Wetlands contract -removal of peat material from the Awakeri project to become cleanfill at neighbouring developments achieving significant cost avoidance and avoiding landfilling.

7.       For more highlights on what the council group has achieved please refer to Attachment A.

Where we’re going: FY19 onwards

8.       Towards the end of FY18, the Value for Money (s17A) review of Procurement was reported to Governing Body. The review noted that good progress had been made in group procurement activities and collaboration. It also made several recommendations regarding s where procurement activities in the Group Source programme should for focussed.

9.       The table below outlines the quick wins identified in the review and details the progress already made and future actions planned.

 


 

Quick Wins

Completed or currently underway

Future action planned

Ngā ritenga ā-pūtea / Financial implications

15.     Contract variations to date are within the contract contingency sum allocated, with some still to be agreed.

16.     Variations and claims not yet agreed are subject to recommendation by the quantity surveyor prior to any final agreement. Any agreed variations will seek approval from the committee.

17.     The two variations are made up of costs incurred for enabling works, for which project budget is available, and a risk contingency provision as recommended by the quantity surveyor to cover costs of risk eventuating. Budget for this risk contingency is also available within the project budget.


 

Ngā raru tūpono / Risks

18.     Risk management involving identification, mitigation and control is being continually implemented and the risk management plan is operating.

19.     Several of the risks have eventuated since the last report. These involve extensions of time for delays in providing timely design information, design and coordination problems with regards to heating, ventilation and air conditioning. This has resulted in coordination changes, and changes in design drawings from those issued at tender.

20.     Some costs associated with these risks have been identified. Staff are working to ensure these are as minimal as possible. Staff are also working to ensure any delays to the contract delivery are minimal.

21.     During the closing stages of the contract, and due to the increase in the number and severity of outstanding risks, status reports to the Strategic Procurement Committee will increase to a monthly frequency for the duration of the contract.

 

Ngā koringa ā-muri / Next steps

22.     The project governance group will continue to work with the professional services team and the contractor to mitigate and control risks and minimise any additional costs.

23.     Monthly status update reports will be provided to the Strategic Procurement Committee for the remainder of the contract.
