Subject: ADVANCE NOTICE SP52948 Caretaker and Strata Manager Tenders in late 2016
Date: 7/4/16, 7:53 pm

Hi,

This is an advance notice that two tenders for Caretaker's and Strata Management's contracts shall be submitted in due course to SP52948 in 2016.

The decision to renew contracts of such large scale is to be made at general meeting before their expiration. Increase of above 16% for Caretaker's contract in 2014 and proposed one of 2% increase for renewal in 2017 is extremely large and needs to be market-evaluated.

In addition, as well known and published, BCS Strata Management failed to comply with SSMA 1996 S1078 to prove any tender for these contracts in 2014.
