Notice Description

Flintshire County Council does not have enough storage space within its offices to store the authority's records. Therefore, off site storage is required. The offsite storage needs to be secure due to the nature of the records that we archive and we need to have a compliant and confidential service to cover storage, transportation and retrieval.

Lot Information

Lot 1

Flintshire County Council does not have enough storage space within its offices to store the authority's records. Therefore, off site storage is required. The offsite storage needs to be secure due to the nature of the records that we archive and we need to have a compliant and confidential service to cover storage, transportation and retrieval. With the use of technology and the change in legislation with scanned documents, we are seeking to convert some of the records that we have to electronic form, through the use of Scan on Demand. However, as we are not yet in a position to start doing this, we want this caveat included within the contract. This has now been awarded

Renewal: There will be an option to extend the contract up to 20 years reviewed every 2 years following initial contract period
