 The Crisis Outreach Service will provide rapid support to those in crisis, to prevent an escalation of needs that may require emergency care, hospital admission, or an urgent housing or other intervention. Staff will rapidly and assertively re-engage/engage people with mainstream services using agreed fast track referral processes and accessing same/next day prescribing, where appropriate.
 Those in crisis for the purposes of this service can be defined as people who need urgent help. Scope includes, but is not limited to, those impacted by substance use, homelessness or other form of housing insecurity, mental health difficulties, and trauma. The focus of this service will include:
 - Keeping people safe
 - Calling individuals (and those around them) and carrying out wellness checks at home or other known places
 - Make multiple attempts to reach individuals
 - Target the distribution of naloxone
 - Work with those around the individual (where appropriate) i.e. family, friends
 - Offer Harm Reduction interventions including naloxone/WAND
 - Establish direct referral channels via Police Scotland, SAS, Hospitals, families, self
 In order to save lives, service models should consider assertive outreach methods to engage and reach high risk individuals, provide interventions at key times to prevent overdose.
 The service must offer caseload capacity to provide wrap around care at the point of need including follow up care in the event of a near fatal overdose.
 A harm reduction van will be made available to the successful provider to support service delivery. The Council intends to tender for a 2 year contract.

title: Young Carers Service

description:
Aberdeen City Council requires a support service for Young Carers who are resident in Aberdeen City. The overall aim of the services is to support people and enhance the experience of those who identify as a Carer. Ensuring that they have access to relevant information and that they feel respected, listened to, valued and involved. In doing all of this, the carer will feel able to plan, maintain and sustain their caring role and to live a life alongside caring.
 The Carers (Scotland) Act 2016, which came into effect on the 1st of April 2018 gives all carers new rights, under one piece of legislation. Fundamental to the delivery of the Carers Services is that the service is provided in line with the legislation laid down within the act as well as working alongside Aberdeen City Council, Aberdeen City Health and Social Care Partnership and relevant partners.
 The Young Carers Service will provide support children and young people who are carers and their families. The service will support Young Carers aged 5-18 who are:
 1. in education/Home Education
 2. otherwise vulnerable and in need of targeted intervention; or
 3. at risk of meeting the threshold for social work assessment and intervention
 The support provided to Children and Young People will be reliant on the Young Carers Statement both as a means of referral and an action plan from which outcomes can be assessed.
 Young carers supported by the service will have access to tailored information and advice. They will also be supported through targeted individual or group activities which not only focus on them but also take a ‘whole family’ approach working with other agencies, including Health Visitors, School Nurses, Schools, NESCOL, Universities, Targeted Family Support and Fit Like Family Wellbeing as well as services working directly with the cared-for person.
 There is an interdependency between services and providers will be expected to work collaboratively to support for those transitioning from Young Carers to Adult Carers services ensuring they have support from whole system.
 The contracts will commence on 1 April 2025 and will operate for five years until 31 March 2030 plus the option for a two year extension.
 The maximum funding for Year 1 of the contract will be:
 Young Carers Service - GBP206000
 Funding for future years will be subject to any agreed sectoral uplifts.. The initial contract term is 5 years with 2x12 month optional extensions (5+1+1). The estimated contract value is based on the maximum 7 years and calculated using the funding for Year 1, i.e., GBP206000

Laser system:
 An 193nm UV excimer laser ablation system for ablation of silicate, phosphate, oxide and carbonate minerals to make trace element and isotope ratio measurements by split-stream coupling the laser system to a multi-collector inductively-coupled plasma mass spectrometer and a collision cell “triple quad” inductively-coupled plasma mass spectrometer. Ideally it would have an integrated LIBS detector and the ability to pair LIBS and LA-ICPMS analyses.
 We require a 193 nm, short pulse (<7 ns) excimer laser system, capable of delivering a variable sized, homogeneous beam to produce reproducible, sharp-sided ablation pits in a range of matrices including: silicate, phosphate, carbonate and oxide minerals.
 A two-volume sample chamber is required to allow efficient transfer of ablated material from samples of a range of sizes to the mass spectrometer(s) with rapid wash out to allow for efficient compositional imaging.
 The ablation system will come with automated control of laser functions, x-y-z positioning of sample and carrier gas flows. The system will include high quality imaging of the sample to be ablated, and be capable of making 2D and 3D chemical images.
 The system will be technically assessed against the Mandatory and Desirables Requirements. In overall scope our requirements include:
 size and quality of the ablated pit, with emphasis on the smallest diameter of well-formed pits
 depth of laser focus, allowing reproducible ablation of material on rough surfaces across a long traverse
 two-volume sample chamber
 reproducibility and robustness of stage positioning and correlation with reference images
 reproducibility of trace element concentrations and isotope ratios across the sample cell
 rapid computer-controlled switching between different spot sizes including x/y/angle shutter for making and rotating rectangles
 speed and efficiency of sample wash out
 quality of sample imaging optics
 ease of use
 small and reproducible laser induced elemental and isotopic fractionation
 good pulse to pulse energy stability
 capability of efficiently and reproducibly ablating a range of natural materials, including: silicate minerals including zircon, phosphates including monazite and apatite; oxides including cassiterite; carbonates including calcite
 LIBS capability
 2D/3D chemical mapping of sample sections via raster and drill-down
 We wish be able to integrate the sample image with an independent sample map (for example obtained by secondary electron imaging). We also require the laser to generate independent triggering and synchronisation signals. The instrument is to be compatible with operation in conjunction with an Agilent 8800 Triple Quad and a Nu Plasma 1 multicollector ICPMSs. The system should be able to simultaneously trigger these instruments.
 Key Requirements
 A 193 nm Excimer laser capable of delivering a variable sized, homogeneous beam to produce reproducible, sharp-sided ablation pits in a range of matrices including: silicate, phosphate, carbonate and oxide minerals.
 Automated control of laser functions, x-y-z positioning of sample and carrier gas flows, with sample imaging and a two-volume ablation chamber.
 System must generate independent triggering and synchronisation signals, as frequently as each laser pulse.
 Laser pulse length <7ns.
 Two-volume sample chamber, capable of holding large diameter samples
 Integrated mass flow controller(s) for carrier gas (He) (and ideally additional gas (N2))
 User friendly software capable of running predefined spots automatically and unattended.

reviewDetails:
The University of St Andrews will incorporate a minimum of 10 calendar day standstill period at the point of information on the award of the contract being communicated to tenderers. This period allows unsuccessful tenderers to seek further debriefing from the contracting authority before the contract is entered into. Applicants have 2 working days from the notification of the award decision to request additional debriefing and that information has to be provided a minimum of 3 working days before the expiry of the standstill period. Such additional information should be requested from The University of St Andrews.
 If an appeal regarding the award of contract has not been successfully resolved The Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2012 provide for aggrieved parties who have been harmed or are at risk of harm by a breach of the rule to take action in the Sheriff Court or Court of Session.
 The anticipated review body in such cases would be:
 Dundee Sheriff Court
 6 West Bell Street
 Dundee
 DD1 9AD
 Telephone: +44 1382 229 961
 Anyone bringing court proceedings against the University of St Andrews must inform the University of St Andrews in advance of the alleged breach and its intention to bring proceedings. Any such action must be brought within 15 days of the date on which a decision is sent to them or published to challenge that decision.
 Proceedings seeking an ineffectiveness order must be brought within 30 days of the publication of the contract award notice in the OJEU, or 30 days from the date of a decision letter to all tenderers concerned, and any candidates concerned, containing a summary of the reason for the recipient being unsuccessful, otherwise 6 months from the date of entering into the contract or concluding the framework agreement.
 Where a contract has not been entered into the Court may, by interim order, suspend the procurement procedure. The court may also set aside a decision or actions taken by the University or order it to amend and document; and/or award damages. However, by express requirement the court may decide not to grant an interim order when the negative consequences of such an order are likely to outweigh the benefits, having regard to a number of considerations.
 If the contract has been entered into the Court may, depending on the nature of the breach: make an ineffectiveness order; impose a financial penalty; shorten the duration of the contract; make any other order considered appropriate to address the consequences of ineffectiveness or shortening the duration or the contract; award damages.
