Dear Patrick West,
Thank you for your request. We believe that you have submitted this FOI
request because you are interested in supplying information or
communication technology products or services to the Council.
I am writing to advise you that we publish our contracts and spending
information. The Contracts Register provides a list of all existing
Council contracts. The register is updated monthly and shows when
contracts will expire, and those which are likely to be advertised and
re-tendered in the next 18 months. In addition, we always advertise new
opportunities. Please see our Council Contracts webpage:
[1]http://www.haringey.gov.uk/index/busines...
We recommend suppliers sign up to CompeteFor to avoid the need to check
for updates.
There is not a specific person responsible for reviewing and renewing
these contracts. Council standing orders and local government legislation
cover how procurement is carried out and in that context providing contact
details of individual employees is inappropriate.
In the event of system replacement a project team would be set up with the
technical and business lead roles being selected at the time. All relevant
details of our requirements would be provided in any tender documents that
would be in the public domain via our website.
Please note we have not dealt with your enquiry as a formal Freedom of
Information Act request at this stage, and we shall take no further action
on your request unless we hear further from you.
I trust this will address your query.
Yours sincerely,
Saema Akhlaq
