Decision details

Heritage Services Radio Replacement

Decision Maker: Director of Sustainable Communities

Decision status: Approved

Is Key decision?: No

Is subject to call in?: No

Purpose:

The radios used by Heritage Services are reaching the end of their life, replacement components are no long possible to source and the repeater units need replacing. These radios are essential to the smooth running of the visitor attractions which Heritage Services run, enabling teams to effectively communicate.


Decision:

To fully approve capital amounting to £75k from the provisional capital programme item Heritage Services Infrastructure Development

Alternative options considered:

Do nothing: This option risks equipment failure and repairs not being possible, this would reduce the operational effectiveness of Heritage Services. Radio communication across the site is a key part of our day to day operation, as well as our emergency management plan, compromising this would be an unacceptable risk.
