sec.211 Significant contracting plans
This section applies if the contracting plan identifies any significant contracts. The council must make a significant contracting plan for each significant contract before the contract starts. A significant contracting plan is a document stating— the objectives of the significant contract; and how the objectives are to be achieved; and how achievement of the objectives will be measured; and any alternative ways of achieving the objectives, and why the alternative ways were not adopted; and proposed contractual arrangements for the activity; and a risk analysis of the market in which the contract is to happen. The objectives must be consistent with the council’s contracting plan. The council may, by resolution, amend a significant contracting plan at any time before the end of the financial year to which the plan relates.
