6. Extension of contract with Envizi Australia Pty Ltd to continue to deliver the Sustainability Reporting Platform
This is a report recommending the extension of Contract 12495 Sustainability Reporting Platform Contract with Envizi Australia Pty Ltd to enable continuity of sustainability data.
Council’s primary purpose for utilising a sustainability platform is to improve performance management across Council facilities and key business functions and to reduce consumption through informed decision-making; particularly in the areas of electricity, fuel, gas and water.
Council undertook a Request for Quote (RFQ) process in 2018 inviting quotes from suppliers for a Sustainability Reporting Platform. After an evaluation of the quotes received, Contract 12495 was entered into with Envizi Australia Pty Ltd from October 2018 to support delivery of a Sustainability Reporting Platform.
The contract with Envizi started in October 2018 with the design of the reporting structure and input of Council data, with the annual subscription commencing in December 2018 valued at approximately $32,000 (incl. GST) per year.
Due to data continuity and time and resources invested in setting up the system it is recommended that a further contract be entered into with Envizi Australia Pty Ltd in order to ensure value for money and return on investment.
This report recommends that Council resolve that the exception under s235(b) of the Local Government Regulation 2012 applies and that Council proceeds with the engagement of Envizi Australia Pty Ltd to provide a Sustainability Reporting Platform for up to four years to December 2024 for the estimated sum of one hundred and fifty thousand dollars excluding GST ($150,000) (total cost if all extensions are executed).

B. That Council note advice set out in this report that given the specialised nature of the services provided it would be impractical or disadvantageous to Council to return to the market to again seek quotes from suppliers to support the Sustainability Reporting Platform.
C. That Council resolve it is satisfied that the exception set out in section 235(b) of the Local Government Regulation 2012 ( Regulation ) applies and that Envizi Australia Pty Ltd is a specialised service supplier able to continue to provide maintenance and support to Council’s Sustainability Reporting Platform .

11. Report on organisational structure, specifically on workplace culture, including the result of the pulse survey and on whistleblower provisions
At its September 2020 meeting, Council resolved that a report be provided on organisational structure, specifically on workplace culture, including the result of the pulse survey and on whistleblower provisions.
In 2018 and 2019, under the leadership of the Interim Management Committee and the Interim Administrator, a Business Transformation Program was implemented including 18 Transformation Projects (TPs). The major deliverable of TP#2 People and Performance, was a People and Culture Strategic Plan 2019-2021 that included seven (7) strategic objectives and 23 initiatives to be delivered over that timeframe.
Following major recruitment to the People and Culture Branch between February and May 2020, good progress is now being made on the implementation of the People and Culture Strategic Plan 2019-2021, noting that it is a major program of work.
While there are many factors that contribute to workplace culture, the People and Culture Strategic Plan contains four initiatives for delivery against the Strategic Objective 2: Create a values based culture. This report notes key deliverables to date against this Strategic Objective.
Four (4) bi-monthly Workforce Pulse Surveys have been completed to date in 2020 and the themes that have arisen are summarised in this report.
The People and Culture Branch in Council supports leaders and employees in a range of ways, ranging from contemporary policies, administrative directives and procedures, through to workplace health, safety and wellbeing programs and initiatives, training and development and support for managers and employees in resolving workplace grievances and addressing any alleged conduct that does not align with the Code of Conduct.
This report also provides an outline of the Public Interest Disclosure Management Program, Policy and Procedure in place at Council.
