Long Description
 Through our early market engagement EHSCP have been working with providers supporting people with PD and LD. We have also been working separately with MH providers within the Place to Live Framework. There is expressed interest in bringing these groups together into a single framework. Therefore, we are interested in working with organisations on reviewing and developing the specifications to ensure the services for people with eligible needs offered under Social Care (Self-directed Support) (Scotland) Act 2013 (SDS) option 3 are fit for purpose, and facilitate compliance with all relevant legislation.
 It is currently proposed there are four broad categories of care within this requirement; Day Opportunities, Visiting Support, Intensive Home based care, and Overnight Care. These categories will be further explored to understand the detailed requirements within each category. The EHSCP initial thoughts are;
 Day Opportunities, which are either
 a)	Peer Support, Volunteering and Social Enterprise or,
 b)	Community-based activities of intensive individual and shared support or,
 c)	Centre based provision of intensive individual and shared support.
 Visiting support, may include
 a)	Day-time responder services (scheduled and unscheduled)
 b)	Low volumes of Housing Support
 c)	Low volumes of Personal Care e.g., medication or meal support visits
 Intensive Home based Care, may include
 a)	24-hour support in places registered with the Care Inspectorate as Care Homes;
 b)	24-hour support in accommodation with linked support (e.g. core and cluster models; and
 c)	Higher volumes of Housing Support and Personal care in a person’s own home
 Overnight Support, may include
 a)	Overnight responder services (scheduled and unscheduled)
 b)	Sleep -over support (individual or shared)
 c)	Intensive overnight support (individual or shared)
 The purpose of this PIN is to engage with the market and gain insight into the likely level of interest from providers in the EHSCP Requirement. The structure of the requirement will be part of future discussions with organisations who note interest in this PIN.
 It is anticipated that further engagement will start in March 2025.
 Additional Information
 By submitting your interest you are agreeing to further engagement with the EHSCP.
 The route to market is not yet fixed and this will also be discussed at the coproduction event, however it would be advised to network as much as possible through the event as collaborative, consortium and partnership bids will be welcomed as part of a key partnership model.
 Please note: information provided at this stage is subject to change through the development of the specifications and structure of the framework.. Please note: information provided at this stage is subject to change through the development of the specifications and structure of the framework.

 The purpose of this PIN is to engage with the market to re-design a service which will meet the growing demand in a sustainable, outcome focused and viable way. It is intended that organisations will engage with EHSCP to develop the requirement through supplier awareness sessions, co-production events and feedback surveys.
 All providers are invited to engage with this process to support a new Framework Agreement which will be tendered. All future communication will be directed though this PIN and to ensure your organisations participation and updates on this process, you should note interest against this PIN.

his opportunity has been listed by LHC Procurement Group on behalf of our regional business:
 Scottish Procurement Alliance (WPA)
 This Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) is designed to facilitate the procurement of repair, maintenance, and associated services across multiple disciplines, ensuring a structured and efficient response to urgent and planned works.
 This new DPS will be for the provision of repair and maintenance service for the public sector for use by:
 - Education
 - Healthcare
 - Emergency Services
 - Housing and residential
 - Public Sector buildings
 The DPS is divided into fourteen lots, split between four primary workstreams, each containing specific lots tailored to address key areas of building maintenance.
 Workstream 1 focuses on the building envelope and structural integrity, covering roofing repairs, external works, internal repairs including damp and mould, and the maintenance of windows, doors, and other openings.
 Workstream 2 addresses mechanical and electrical (M&E) systems, ensuring the operational efficiency of plumbing, heating and cooling, electrical systems, lifts, and detection systems such as CCTV and fire alarms.
 Workstream 3 provides environmental and infestation management, including property protection, pest control, and drainage solutions to maintain safety and hygiene.
 Workstream 4 encompasses multi-disciplinary services, allowing for an integrated approach to complex projects covering multiple areas within a single contract.
 To ensure adaptability, the DPS retains the flexibility to introduce additional lots in response to emerging industry requirements, as permitted under PCR 2015, provided that such modifications do not significantly alter the scope of the procurement. This ensures the DPS remains responsive to market developments, technological advancements, and regional needs, thereby offering contracting authorities a comprehensive and compliant procurement solution for a wide range of building maintenance and operational challenges.

 All organisations appointed will be expected to work with LHCPG and our clients to help identify, deliver and capture social value outcomes associated with the delivery of projects they are award through this DPS.
 Where a client may not have already set out any social value requirements, then LHCPG would expect the appointed company to raise this with the client and jointly seek opportunities to evidence social value on each project through available data and pre/post works surveying.
 The following metrics are examples of the social value outcomes implemented for RM DPS, however this is subject to change and a final suite will be discussed and applied as part of the onboarding and go-live of the DPS. LHCPG will work with appointed companies to ensure that all SV and project reporting requirements are proportional and achievable.

title: Energy Efficiency & Renewable Technology DPS

description:
This Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) has been established to support the inspection, repair, and replacement of energy efficiency measures and renewable technology installations.
 The DPS will operate independently but will complement the LHCPG N9 framework, ensuring that a comprehensive range of renewable and energy-efficient solutions are accessible. The scope of this DPS includes:
 - Heating and ventilation
 - Electrical energy systems
 - Insulation
 - Metering and controls
 - Emerging technologies
 - Multidisciplinary services
 The aim is to provide contracting authorities with a flexible route to procure innovative, low-carbon solutions that align with sustainability goals, funding requirements, and regulatory compliance.
 Given the evolving nature of the renewable energy sector, this DPS has been structured to allow for future expansion, with the flexibility to introduce additional lots in response to market demand. This ensures that emerging technologies and government-backed initiatives, such as hydrogen heating, BIM solutions, smart metering, and multidisciplinary renewable projects, can be incorporated without requiring a new procurement process. In line with Public Contracts Regulations (PCR) 2015, any future modifications will be transparently managed, ensuring compliance while maintaining an agile approach to procurement. Through this DPS, public sector bodies will have access to qualified suppliers who can deliver high-quality, energy-efficient solutions that contribute to decarbonisation targets and environmental sustainability.

The purpose of this ITT is to appoint a single supplier to a Framework Agreement to deliver the International Selling Programme (ISP) Framework, which is a package of support targeted at helping Scottish based exporting companies navigate complex B2B sales cycles and close deals with confidence. Over 12 cohorts of companies have now been managed through the programme and SE wishes to deliver a further programme of 6 cohorts aimed primarily at the energy sector (wind generation and hydrogen). Companies sitting within science & technology sectors (mainly healthcare) may also form a cohort.
 It is anticipated that the Framework Agreement will start on May 2025 and conclude May 2027. After this period, Scottish Enterprise will have the option to extend the Framework Agreement for a further period of 12 months if required.
 The value of the Framework Agreement is expected to be in the region of between GBP150,000 and GBP200,000 excluding VAT.
