In Torbay, Extra Care housing comes under the commissioning umbrella of Supported Living.  For the purpose of this tender and contract the term Extra Care and Supported Living is interchangeable.

We are seeking submissions which supports, enables and empowers its residents, communities and partnerships.  Our ambition and priorities are for the population of Torbay to thrive as outlined in Torbay’s Community and Corporate Plan 2019-2023.    https://www.torbay.gov.uk/council/policies/corporate/corporate-plan/
This tender is specifically for the on-site delivery of care and support at Dunboyne Court, Torquay and Whitley Court, Paignton.  Dunboyne Court has 45 flats, 8 of which are shared ownership.  Whitley Court consists of 62, of which 15 are shared ownership.  In addition to Extra Care units the Whitley Court site has sheltered housing provision; clients living in sheltered housing at Whitley Court are able to access 1:1 care and support from the on-site Extra Care provider.
The Trust is running an Invitation to Tender (ITT) to identify a provider to deliver the shared hours and some of the 1:1 hours support and care to the current two Extra Care sites.  We are adopting our supported living framework rates for this tender.  The rates for 21/22 are:
Day rate (07.00-22.00) 	£16.63 per hour     (105 hours per week)
Night rate (22.00-07.00)	£11.09 per hour       (63 hours per week)
The Contract Period will start on the 1st of April 2022 and end 31st of March 2027, with the option to extend until the 31st of March 2029.

TUPE will apply.  In order to assist Applicants, the Trust will provide information in relation to staff members, and the TUPE schedule will be provided to Applicants on completion and return of the Confidentially Agreement.
Please note: The Trust reserves the right to award the shared and 1:1 hours contract for future Extra Care housing or other housing scheme(s) with accommodation-based support, developed within the lifetime of this contract, to the successful Provider.  Two new Extra Care housing sites (Torquay and Paignton) are planned, if these become operational during the term of this contract discussion may take place with the incumbent Provider to explore and determine the potential to deliver additional services at either or both sites.
The closing date for this window of opportunity is before 12:00 noon 8th of October 2021.

Amendment to II.2.4:
In August 2021, HEE announced a tender exercise for the four-year Child and Adolescent Psychotherapy Doctorate training programme. This is vital for two reasons: to enable sufficient course capacity to continue our programme of expansion, and to ensure a consistent national approach.
After further discussions and engagement with potential bidders, and NHS England and Improvement colleagues, HEE will be extending the procurement process. This means the procurement will now be for all provision from September 2023 entry, and will not include 2022 entry.
This decision to extend the process was made following feedback received at the market engagement events, to safeguard continuity of provision for September 2022. This is essential to support the unprecedented expansion of the psychological professions workforce by approximately 10,500 posts by 2024 to meet commitments set out in the NHS Long Term Plan.
The procurement exercise will continue to proceed at pace. The launch of the specification and the bid submission dates for the programme will now happen at a slightly later date, which we hope will allow more time for submission and for mobilisation once contracts are awarded. It will also provide bidders with additional lead time to prepare competitive high-quality bids. HEE will widely communicate the new timeline of dates for the programme once confirmed by the end of October 2021.
We would like to thank interested parties and potential bidders for their engagement and efforts in this tendering exercise so far. We look forward to our continued work with all to support the delivery of excellent healthcare to the public across England.

Background
UK SBS currently uses a Catalogue Content Management Software solution which has been in place for several years.
The current Contract is due to expire in April 2023 and we therefore wish to understand what the market can offer in the form of a standard self-service user eCatalogue platform and what features are available with customisation. All information gained from the Pre-Market Engagement sessions will help to ensure we have a fit for purpose specification when we formally approach the market later this year.
UK SBS currently runs roughly £10M per annum through its eMarketplace, however there are internal strategies underway to increase the Catalogue offerings which will increase the per annum spend to around £15M - £20M.
Main Objectives / Minimum System Requirements
The main requirements of any potential solution will be:
•	To allow our roughly 9,700 users easy searchable access to the agreed and Contracted Supplier Catalogues (The intention of this system is that it will only be available to pre-selected / Contracted Suppliers)
•	Image, description, unit of measure and categorisations of all catalogue items loaded, including manufacture part codes.
•	Functionality to all for delivery charges or dry ice charges to be added
•	Ability to select multiple items from multiple suppliers and checkout in one order, with the final order then being split into individual Supplier Purchase Orders
•	Ability for order acknowledgements
•	Varying Supplier membership packages which range from free to chargeable and fully managed.
•	'Punch-Out' functionality to Supplier websites (where agreed)
•	Interfacing with Oracle and other ERP solutions
•	Ability for  e-invoicing
•	Ability to monitor/report on which agreements catalogue items/suppliers  are awarded onto in the system
•	Ability to report on spend and create custom reports that can be run by the UK SBS teams
•	Ability to show promotions from Suppliers (where pre-agreed with UK SBS)
•	Ability to conduct bulk order quote request with set Suppliers
•	Single and two factor authentications sign-on options
•	Meet all relevant Cyber Essentials and UK GDPR legislation
•	Be IS27001 accredited
•	Meet all current and future accessibility legislation
Budget (Indicative)
The current indicative budget for any solution is £140,000.00 per annum (to include all licensing and standard running costs).
Pre-Market Engagement Day
To ensure that UK SBS has a clear understanding of the current solutions available in the market that could meet our needs, we would like to invite prospective bidders to attend a pre-market engagement webinar session currently scheduled for the first week in October (further information to follow on the agreed/final date)  via a Zoom meeting.
The purpose of this meeting will be for UK SBS to provide a clearer understanding to potential bidders of our requirements of any new system and to gain a full understanding of what the market has to offer in terms of system capabilities and customisable functionality. Where possible, UK SBS is looking to steer away from a heavily customised system and have a more 'off the shelf' solution which meets our needs.
During the session we will be looking for Supplier participation, engagement, and questioning, to ensure that we have thought about all the practical elements that would need to be included in any future tender specification.
Agenda (Indicative)
a)	Welcome & Introductions (UK SBS)
b)	Purpose & Project Overview (UK SBS)
c)	High-level Requirements (UK SBS)
d)	Market Products & Capabilities (Supplier Perspective)
o	System Capabilities (Supplier Perspective)

• Support on the development of research into the local pipeline and contribution towards
the development of existing partnerships in the academic and industrial sectors; and
• Bringing together different aspects of a local energy stakeholder network and identify
various stakeholders including community energy groups that will deliver projects in line
with the GNDF requirements of delivering a sustainable low carbon economy, that will create
jobs in the local economy and stimulate growth and skills through investment into regional
energy initiatives.

carbon energy project opportunities, initiating discussions, and responding to incoming
leads. The BD Partner should have premises with the ability to host up to a maximum of 1.5
FTE members of the Amber team within the region, as well as meeting space to host local
clients to develop these opportunities.

title: Business Development Role Within the Green New Deal Fund (GNDF) in the North Of Tyne

description:
The NTCA has established a Green New Deal Fund (“GNDF”) to catalyse investment in
green growth. Committing £9m over the next three years, this fund will form a mechanism to
stimulate innovation and business growth in the areas of heat decarbonisation, energy
efficiency, renewables, energy systems, low carbon transport and natural capital. The focus
of the GNDF is to support the ‘green growth economy’ by, prioritising projects which can
deliver significant carbon reductions as well as supporting new industry and jobs in areas
where emissions reductions are most needed.
In June 2021, the NTCA announced, under Delegated Decision, the appointment of Amber
Fund Management Limited (“AFML”), a sister company of Amber Infrastructure Limited
(“Amber”) to act as Fund Manager for the GNDF. As part of Amber’s expression of interest
for the GNDF, Amber proposed to appoint a business development partner to assist with the
delivery of the GNDF.
A partner with knowledge of the local business ecosystem is required to support the Green
New Deal Fund Limited Partnership (“GNDF LP”) in a Business Development role (“BD
Partner”). The BD Partner must have premises with the ability to host up to a maximum of 1.5
FTE members of the Amber team within the region, as well as meeting space to host local
clients. The selected BD Partner will support Amber in a business development and
origination capacity and will be required to source, manage and review applications from

description: Conversion of automated assembly machinery to allow the fitment of 3mm strips as opposed to 5mm strips.

title: Conversion of Automated Assembly Machinery

description: Machinery for working plastics

procurementMethodRationale: The machinery was designed by and manufactured by Huxley Bertram  Engineering Ltd. Therefore, the most viable supply decision was to instruct Huxley Bertram to carry out this work which consists of modifying the machinery to use 3mm test strips as opposed to the 5mm strips.1. The COVID-19 outbreak is a Public Health Emergency of International Concern as declared by the World Health Organisation on 30 January 2020. The WHO Director General characterised COVID-19 as a pandemic on 11 March 2020.2.  A key element of ensuring an effective response to the pandemic is ensuring that there is adequate testing. Therefore, ensuring surge LFT capacity, including sufficient availability of Lateral Flow Tests, is critical.  3. Mass testing of the UK Population is a key step in bringing the Pandemic under control. (Lateral Flow Tests produce quicker results than the current PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) test, and do not require a lab processing step.) LFT tests have only recently become viable as a means of testing, with multiple tests being progressed through to certification and approval. This was unforeseen by the DHSC and outside its control.4. DHSC's market analysis data demonstrates that the global market for LFT is volatile and highly competitive. Global manufacturing capability is limited to circa 120m units per day. Demand often outstrips supply. DHSC requirement is driven by the progress of the pandemic (including emerging variants), the changing efficacy of available LTF products and the severity of the second wave/national R-number. That requirement means that the UK must make substantial purchases of tests during a short manufacturing window.5. DHSC has been tasked with ensuring security of supply of a critical consumable asset (Lateral Flow Antigen tests) in a volatile and competitive global marketplace. This manufacturing contract pursues that mandate by guaranteeing that DHSC is able to receive a stable supply of completed lateral flow test devices manufactured by a diagnostics tests manufacturing specialist, within the urgent timeframes required by the project and VFM cost.

The provider must be prepared to work with commissioners to implement any such alterations that do arise due to emerging system changes or other developments during the life of the contract.
EOIs received will be used to help NHSE/I finalise their commissioning and contracting approach for this service. This PIN as a call for competition is initially published as a notice for expressions of interest. The Commissioner may then choose to proceed directly to a procurement process with parties who have responded to the notice and there shall be no further notice published.
In order to submit an EOI, you will need to be registered on the e-procurement system and 'express an interest'. Upon doing so you will be able to access the associated provider questionnaire. IMPORTANT: The questionnaire must be completed in conjunction with your EOI. The deadline for registration, EOI and questionnaire returns is 22nd September 2021.
On registration, please include at least two contacts to allow for access to the system in times of absence.
The contract will be awarded on a block basis at this point, however, should national changes in funding approach be introduced the provider must be prepared to work with the commissioner to assess any impact and work collaboratively to safely implement any such alterations during the life of the contract.
Should NHSE/I proceed to a procurement process it is anticipated to consist of two stages:
Stage 1 is a shortlisting stage; the aim of this shortlisting stage is predominantly to test the capability and capacity of potential Providers and to identify whether there is more than one capable provider
Stage 2 will either be:
(a) a competitive process (if more than one capable provider is identified at Stage 1) which may involve dialogue and will involve assessment of bids against published evaluation criteria and weightings; or
(b) a collaborative "Assurance Process" with a single provider (if only one capable provider is identified at Stage 1).
Both approaches will involve evidence being considered by subject matter experts and assessed against critical success factors and expected minimum standards.
This procurement is being carried out by NHS South, Central and West Commissioning Support Unit (SCW) on behalf of the Commissioners. Additional information: The services are healthcare services falling within Schedule 3 to the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 ("the Regulations")  which are not subject to the full regime of the Regulations, but is instead governed by the "Light Touch Regime" contained within Chapter 3, Section 7 of the Regulations (Regulations 74 to 77).
The tendering process will be conducted in accordance with the requirements and flexibilities provided by Articles 74 to 76 of the Directive, and Regulations 74 to 76 of the Regulations. The Authority will run a transparent tender process, treating all Bidders equally. For the avoidance of doubt, the Authority will not be bound by the Regulations or the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union or any other regulations or legislation except for the specific parts or circumstances that apply to the procurement of these Services.
Neither the inclusion of a Bidder selection stage, nor the use of any language or terms found in the Directive or Regulations, nor the description of the procedure voluntarily adopted by the Authority ("Open", "Restricted", "Competitive Procedure with Negotiation", "Competitive Dialogue" or any other description), nor any other indication, shall be taken to mean that the Authority intends to hold itself bound by the Directive or Regulations, save by the provisions applicable to services coming within the scope of Annex XIV of the Directive / Schedule 3 of the Regulations.

It fulfils a NATO commitment to provide a WWGC capability and will be operated by the Royal Engineers as part of a Multi-National Bridging Battalion based in Minden, DEU. Project TRITON will build upon the high level of interoperability enjoyed now, at the DEU / UK Amphibious Engineer Battalion (Amph Engr Bn) in Minden with M3 Amphibious Rigs.
In support of the drive for commonality and interoperability for the WWGCC beyond 2027, Project TRITON has coordinated its efforts to date on a joint basis with Germany (DEU).  DEU and UK have broadly aligned timelines to replace their current WWGCC.  The history of collaboration and interoperability between the nations has also led to significant alignment of their requirements. The Authority now has approval to work bi-laterally with DEU to procure an amphibious WWGCC. It is the Authority’s expectation to place a Contract through a Delivery Agent on behalf of DEU and UK Authorities.

The East of England Ambulance Service NHS Trust (EEAST) has a requirement for a works contract to facilitate a new building to accommodate its Make Ready Hub facility for the Bury St Edmunds area.
Make Ready is a staff friendly, vehicle preparation and cleaning programme that aims to maximise availability of resources for patients, while minimising risks to cleanliness, and critical equipment and vehicle failures. This Hub is the critical enabling infrastructure that will support EEAST’s ability to meet patient needs today and in the future. Make Ready Hubs have staff well-being and sustainability with future proofing ingrained within their purpose.
This Hub is a central reporting Hub, meaning that staff across the catchment area will begin and end their shifts there. It is the first of at least 10 that will be built in this style.
The requirement is for a turnkey package from suitably qualified developers/funders to deliver a new building on an existing 2-acre site currently owned by EEAST located at 5 Fortress Way, Suffolk Park, Bury St Edmonds, Suffolk, IP32 7FQ to accommodate some 2,800 (approx.) square metres of accommodation (Facility).
Existing EEAST Ambulance facilities are shown on the map included within the set of documents produced by EEAST relating to the description of the Facility, its location and any other requirements (Procurement Pack).
EEAST will enter into a lease for a period of either 25 or 30 years upon completion of the Facility. EEAST will expect the cost of the site and the costs of the design and construction of the works to be fully rentalised over the term and be within the expected range of £500,000-700,000 p.a.
Certain project specifics are summarised below and are fundamental to the requirements of EEAST:
• A minimum gross internal floor area of 2,800m2 as detailed in the project plans and specification;
• A minimum of 143 car parking spaces, subject to planning;
• A minimum of 33 long-wheelbase ambulance parking bays and 4 RRV parking bays;
• BREEAM Excellent Design and Construction;
• A bespoke design solution to accommodate offices, training rooms, vehicle preparation and fleet maintenance areas. The design should conform to the internal building layouts, site configuration and design requirements described within the detailed plans, outline specification and room data sheets; and
• The final design solution should be operationally appropriate for the Facility and should comply with all applicable statutory, legal and EEAST requirements.
The Facility will operate 24 hours a day and seven days a week throughout the year.
EAST anticipates appointing a preferred developer during January 2022 with a view to the preferred developer submitting a planning application during March 2022. This is to enable the planning condition in the development agreement to be satisfied by May 2022.

The Home Office is the lead government department for immigration and passports, drugs policy, crime, fire, counter-terrorism and police. It is responsible for controlling migration for the economic benefit of the country and protecting its borders. It gives permission to those who wish to come to the UK to work or study. It also supports those with genuine protection needs who have come to the UK as asylum seekers, with humanitarian protection needs and those who settle as refugees. This includes work with some of the most vulnerable in our society and we put people at the heart of all that we do.
The Home Office has a duty under Section 55 of the Borders, Citizenship and Immigration Act 2009 to ensure that all functions “safeguard and promote the welfare of children,” and that “any services provided by another person pursuant to arrangements which are made by the Secretary of State are provided having regard to that need.” The future contract contributes to meeting this obligation, ensuring that UASC can adequately access the services and support they are entitled to. It is important operationally that this support is independent to the Home Office, in order to complement the asylum system functions delivered by the Home Office for UASC. Furthermore, for some children, who have a fear of state persecution in their countries of origin, support from a non-governmental organisation can be invaluable.
The Home Office is seeking to procure a provider or providers that will support its Section 55 duties. This will include, but will not be limited to, the activities set out below across England and Wales:
•	Act in the best interests of children at all times, including having close regard to safeguarding concerns.
Lot 1- Initial support for UASC at Dover port.
•	Provide a 24/7 support service at the port of Dover. To provide initial advice and support appropriate to the needs of newly arrived children at the port, prior to them being taken into the care of a local authority.
Lot 2- Ongoing support for UASC across England and Wales
•	Assist UASC, and those responsible for their care, to understand the end to end asylum process; including helping UASC to advise the Home Office of material changes in their circumstances, provide a general advice and signposting service to UASC following an asylum decision and as appropriate, inform the child of the Assisted Voluntary Returns programme, and provide impartial advice on this.
•	As appropriate, act as Responsible Adults for children at substantive asylum interviews and other asylum process events.
•	Where children do not have existing legal representation for their asylum application, to refer to a Legal Aid Agency accredited legal representative, or to offer the necessary information to the relevant social worker or carer.
•	Assist children to understand their rights and responsibilities while being a looked after child in England, and to make relevant referrals as necessary to support them with this.
•	Work with Local Authorities to make sure that children are receiving the right level of support, including but not limited to accommodation, education, and mental and emotional health support.
•	As appropriate, assist the child to make positive cultural connections.
