Purpose:

To award a contract for creation of a website for the independent Clacton Town Board to We Create Digital.
The award follows a Request for Quotation (RfQ) procurement exercise and an evaluation panel scoring decision based on five submitted quotations.
We Create Digital scored most highly based on the criteria set out in the RfQ process.

Decision:

To award a contract for creation of a website for the independent Clacton Town Board to We Create Digital.

Alternative options considered:

Four other RfQ submissions were considered, but these scored lower in the evaluation panel assessment.
Not proceeding with a website (based on quotations): ruled out as all quotations submitted met the minimum criteria.
Not producing a website: The decision to proceed with a website has been made by the independent Clacton Town Board, for which Tendring District Council acts as the accountable body. A website will support accountability and transparency of the Board, and seeks to highlight the positive regeneration work being carried out across Clacton as well as outline opportunities for potential investors.
