Freedom of Information request 172-2022

Response published: 5 May 2022

FOI Request

I would like to submit a request for some information from the organisation, in relation to their contract’s register. The FULL contract register should display all the organisations existing/live contracts I would like the register to display the following columns/headings: 1. Contract Reference -Unique reference number associated with the contract. 2. Contract Title 3. Procurement Category –Please state the Category name of the contract, I wish to know the Category the contract is under. 4. Supplier Name 5. Spend Total, Annual or contract value. 6. Contract’s Duration 7. Contract’s Extensions 8. Contract’s Start Date 9. Contract’s Expiry Date 10. Contract Description [Please provide me with as much detail as possible.] 11. Contact Owner Person that manages the contract register. 12. CPV codes/Pro-Class Contract Data/API Contact Details 1. Can you also provide me with contact details of the person responsible for the actual contract’s register or someone responsible for API? [Name, Job Title, Telephone, Email Address] At the very least provide me with their actual job title. Meaning of API “a set of functions and procedures that allow the creation of applications which access the features or data of an operating system, application, or other service.”. IMPORTANT 1. If the organisation has a CRM system or a similar system, there should be a facility to download and extract contract data. 2. You may forward me a Weblink to a portal to download the contract register, please make sure all the organisation’s contracts are provided as doing prior research I have found that most organisations have only uploaded a small portion of all their contracts. 3. For those organisations planning to make an exemption around spend, the spend information I have requested is an overall figure and I am not requesting a complete breakdown of services relating to the spend.

Thank you for your recent Freedom of Information request. Please find our response below.
The FULL contract register should display all the
organisations existing/live contracts I would like
the register to display the following
columns/headings:
. Contract Reference -Unique reference
number associated with the contract.

Unfortunately, the Trust is unable to respond to
your request. The Trust estimates that the work
involved in collating the data would considerably
exceed the 18 hours limit, specified in Section 12
of the Freedom of Information Act and therefore,
exceeds the appropriate limit of £450.
Can you also provide me with contact details of
the person responsible for the actual contract’s
register or someone responsible for API? [Name,
Job Title, Telephone, Email Address] At the very
least provide me with their actual job title.
