Deloitte report and contract management

Isabella McDermott made this Official Information request to Wellington City Council

This request has an unknown status. We're waiting for Isabella McDermott to read recent responses and update the status.

From: Isabella McDermott

The Deloitte report into Wellington City Council notes that there are big issues with procurement and contract management at the Council. Therefore, I request, from 1 January 2020 to date:

• A list of all contracts entered into by the Creative Capital Te Kaunihere o Pōneke.
• the time period the contract covers, ie providing a service for 3 months, 6 months, 1 year or 10 years.
• the total cost of each contract? especially if it is more than 50,000 dollars per annum.
• which ELT member signed out which contract, if it went to the Chief Executive, or it went to a Council vote given the contracts are seemingly for a lot of money.

Once a report is run in the finance/procurement team for that list, could it please be provided as an excel spreadsheet. From the results of this process, I will then request fuller contract details, especially if they look as dodgy as this contract: https://fyi.org.nz/request/31486-welling....
