title: Elmstead House Block Contract

description:
North Central London Clinical Commissioning Group (NCL CCG) under Barnet Directorate historically commissioned Elmstead House block contract. This historical contract is over 10 years old and in place to deliver a range of accommodation and support services to provide personalised nursing care for clients from the local area who are living with dementia or other complex mental or physical health needs. The block is for 30 beds at a weekly cost of £966.00 per bed.  with a total annual value of £1,506,960.
Elmstead House is a registered Nursing home managed by the Care UK Group, and provides care and support for up to 50 clients with a range of care/support needs. These include clients with dementia-related illness, physical disabilities and function mental health difficulties. The CCG have utilised this service for +10 years and use the beds for CHC eligible clients, discharge to assess arrangements and mental health act section 117 clients. In line with the response to the Covid-19 pandemic, the beds were also used to support rapid discharges from acute hospitals in order to avoid delayed transfers of care.
This VEAT is to extend the block contract arrangement with the provider Elmstead House Care Home (Care UK). This block contract will provide a cost effective local provision of Nursing home beds for clients requiring this level of care across NCL. Additional information: N/A

description: Health and social work services

procurementMethod: limited

procurementMethodDetails: Award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition

procurementMethodRationale:
There is a clear justification why NCL CCG are not in a position to carry out a competitive tender for this accommodation.
This historical contract is over 10 years old and in place to deliver a range of accommodation and support services to provide personalised nursing care for clients from the local area who are living with dementia or other complex mental or physical health needs.
NCL CCG currently have individuals placed in the block beds and there would be significant risks to both the individuals residing at the care home and the provider as follows:
•Clinical risk's as the CCG may have to re-home existing clients in the home, which would have a negative effect on their mental/physical health.
•Litigation and complaints from existing clients and their relatives, as the service is seen as a 'home for life' by some.
•Financial loss to the service, which may ultimately lead to its ongoing operation being unsustainable, and potential home closure.
•Increased weekly costs for the current commissioned beds as they move to a 'spot purchase' arrangement. Alternative provision we have to source would be less value for money for the CCG. Current rates under the block are better than market average.

description: The University has an existing BMS system with specific integration requirements, located at the Medical School site. This links to a system within the adjoining RVI Hospital.  This legacy system incorporates a solution provided by Schneider Electric. The University intends to contract the maintenance and repair and some upgrades of this system to Schneider Electric in order to maintain the integrity of the system. Any fundamental changes to the system at this point would be uneconomical and technically complicated, therefore the award is made under Article 32 3(b). A change of supplier would oblige the contracting authority to acquire supplies having different technical characteristics which would result in incompatibility or disproportionate technical difficulties in operation and maintenance.

reviewDetails:
The University will incorporate a standstill period at the point information on the award of the contract is communicated to tenderers. That notification will provide full information on the award decision. The standstill period, which will be for a minimum of 10 calendar days, provides time for unsuccessful tenderers to challenge the award decision before the contract is entered into.

Additional deliveries by the original supplier which are intended either as a partial replacement of supplies or installations or as the extension of existing supplies or installations where a change of supplier would oblige the contracting authority to acquire supplies having different technical characteristics which would result in incompatibility or disproportionate technical difficulties in operation and maintenance.
Technical changes to the existing BMS system would cause incompatibility and disproportionate technical difficulties in integration with current network.

which is critical to patient care and service delivery. The replacement of which would requireinfrastructure, ICT and validation work that would result in significant disruption and

title: Development of hydrogen enabling standards, competence frameworks and training specifications

description: The Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) intends to appoint a consortium led by Energy & Utility Skills (EUS) in collaboration with the Institution of Gas Engineers and Managers (IGEM) to develop a suite of hydrogen gas enabling standards and associated competence frameworks and training specifications for use in domestic and non-domestic / light commercial hydrogen gas installations.

procurementMethodRationale:
The Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations (GS(I&U)R 1998) require all operatives working with all gases listed under the Gas Act 1986 (except those working in factories and with hydrogen in a non-domestic settings) to be Gas Safe registered.
Energy & Utility Skills (EUS), is the only Gas Standard Setting Body (SSB), an established structure in the gas industry that delivers the Matters of Gas Safety criteria and sets the competence and training requirements for engineer registration with Gas Safe Register. They are the Sector Skills Council responsible for National Occupational Standards (NOS), qualifications and apprenticeship frameworks for gas (upstream and downstream), power, waste and water industries. As the only organisation appointed by Gas Safe, they are the only organisation able to complete the competence framework and training specifications.
The Institution of Gas Engineers & Managers (IGEM), as the professional gas engineering body will create a hydrogen domestic/light commercial enabling standard and a non-domestic equivalent standard. IGEM is recognised as a Gas Engineering professional body, licensed by Royal Academy of Engineering and no other body can update the Hydrogen Reference Standard and codify domestic and non-domestic Hydrogen Enabling standards.
No other economic operator can provide the service of setting standards in this area, with the specific property of universally recognised and accessible record of an approach that represents good business practice.

procurementMethodRationale:
No other reasonable alternative exists for this procurement as Becton Dickinson Dispensing UK Ltd have exclusive rights over the maintenance, updates and licences for this system
which is critical to patient care and service delivery. The replacement of which would require infrastructure, ICT and validation work that would result in significant disruption and
disproportionate technical difficulties that would impact on the Trusts ability to deliver a Pharmacy dispensing service. The absence of competition is not a result of the artificial narrowing of the parameters of the procurement. This is an interim measure, a tender process was unsuccessful and the wider market will be consulted again when this is retendered.

The supplier will be expected to work in close collaboration with DfT’s Maritime Operations staff and the potential DfT analysis team which will undertake the data maintenance needs following the end of the contract. The basic requirement will run for a minimum of 2 years, with the option to extend should the circumstances or needs of the Department change. There is the opportunity for an additional year for the build of the secondary real time system. The supplier shall be expected to deliver at a minimum the following throughout the duration of the tool building contract:
• Specialist software assistance to update current software and/or to develop new software within the scope and as directed by Maritime Operations.
• Gather data from a number of sources and provide the layers within the tool to deliver an informative build which addresses the specified needs of the department.
• Physically training and effectively producing user-friendly materials and guidance to enable the handover of tool maintenance and operation following the end of the contract’s duration.
• Hold meetings with DfT contacts to discuss progress and take on-board considerations in the production of the updated tool(s). Additional information: Suppliers that feel they have the capability and capacity to deliver the Department for Transport’s potential requirement within the timeframe stated are requested to register their interest, alongside relevant information pertaining to the organisation’s capabilities in relation to this requirement, via email to jenny.lloyd@dft.gov.uk

title: Maritime Resilience Analysis tools: Deep Port and the Port Analysis Dashboard (PAD)

description:
The Department is publishing this PIN to notify and engage with the market to understand the capacity, capability and experience of suppliers to provide the digital expertise necessary to refresh, update and maintain the data sets within an existing Departmental resilience tool called Deep Port, which was first built over ten years ago. The tool is designed to gather various strands of data in one place to create a more holistic interpretation of the flow of goods and people through the UK’s main ports. As a result of the UK leaving the EU, the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on industry and transport (both on land and at sea), as well as the growing risks arising from climate change and risks to the security of supply chains from UK ports to the rest of the mainland, the importance of Deep Port as a tool to inform policy decision-making at all levels has become crucial. It will be an important tool to support the Government’s commitment to build robust resilience across the sector, supporting and protecting the UK from future challenges and risks. By combining this data with key port profiles, transport hubs, such as road and rail, flood plains, and types of goods, targeted response and solution becomes quickly accessible, enabling effective policy decisions to be made.  The Department would also consider offers to create a new tool as substitute if a suitable proposal is presented and could be delivered within the very tight timeframe.
Additionally, the Department would also be looking to incorporate a secondary tool to increase the scope and effectiveness of Deep Port, but in real-time, rather than as a downloadable data set. This would be a system designed to capture real-time data related to port resilience from existing data feeds/sensors (PAD).
The overall objectives are
• to have a tool(s) that, once fully functional, can be transferred over to the Department in a user-friendly format which enables the tool(s) to continue to be of ongoing value and,
• to ensure that the integrity of any data can be assured so it may be confidently provided to senior managers and Ministers to better inform policy-making decisions.
Provision must be made to train and advise relevant DfT staff so such transition can take place seamlessly. The overall contract length for updating the tool is likely to be 2 years, but the Department would be strongly supportive of activating Deep Port much sooner than that, ideally by the end of 2021 as the UK reaches the EU transition deadline.

Adult Education Budget - Community Recovery Fund
The West Midlands has been hit hard through the Global pandemic and a report ordered by House of commons shows that some of our communities and residents have been hit harder than others including young people, black and minority ethic (BAME) groups and low-income families.
To help support recovery, we are seeing significant investments being made in employability provision and vocational training e.g. Kickstart, SWAPs (Sector Based Work Academy Programmes) and Level 3 provision.  Gaining and improving skills helps with progression in employment and can help make a huge difference in one’s working life. Whilst these initiatives help provide support both in “back into work” and “in-work progression”, we know that there are a number of our residents who do not engage in these established routes, either because these programmes do not match their aspirations, they lack the confidence to engage, or simply they are not quite sure what they want to do next.
The Objective
To engage residents, the West Midlands Combined Authority (WMCA) is establishing a £1m Adult Education Budget Community Support (the Fund) to help test and develop innovative ideas and skills activity from community based organisations, that help equip both the employed and unemployed residents from those most disadvantaged by the Pandemic back to a healthy place of employment.
Through the fund our intent is to provide community-based organisations with an opportunity to innovate and utilise their expertise in engaging individuals to help support their career progression through skills learning & development. We envision this to be done through a project-based approach in test and learn, we want to see innovative proposals that are focused on targeting specific groups of residents most in need and provide catalysts to inspire their future progression and life chances.
These projects can be focused on a range of skills themes e.g. green/sustainability in the community, STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math or digital is to be focused on a range of resident groups including young BAME, women returners and over 50’s. We do ask that employers are involved in the design of the project and play an active part in aspects of the delivery.
West Midlands Combined Authority are looking for Community providers that can help us design and deliver the above objective. Funds of between £50,000 and £100,000 will be awarded to these providers across the West Midlands region.
Further information
We are seeking a minimum of one new project in each of the seven metropolitan areas – Birmingham, Solihull, Walsall, Dudley, Sandwell, Wolverhampton, Coventry.  Subject to funding there is scope to award further projects
As mentioned above we are seeking innovative projects that inspire and have a clear skill focus e.g. STEM, digital, green/ sustainability and are designed to cater to the below priority groups.
We are seeking to meet with potential suppliers/providers who feel they can help deliver the above objective and be available to join us in a supplier roundtable discussion. The purpose of this roundtable discussions is to get a feel for the market in order to help aid WMCA in the drafting of the final specification. As part of the process a set of questions will be sent prior to the scheduled discussion meeting to help understand the market and drivers.
Supplier Roundtable discussion meetings to be held during the week of 13th September

title: C21580 The Supply of a Charter Crew Transfer Vessel

description:
Border Force currently has a total fleet of five Cutters and six Coastal Patrol Vessels (CPVs). These vessels are well equipped to tackle a range of roles such as maritime security, border control, anti-smuggling, counterterrorism, disaster relief and more.
Cutters operate mainly in UK waters; they have responded to deployments from the Baltic to the Mediterranean. (Coastal patrol, EEZ, ocean use). CPV’s   operate in Coastal Waters; releasing the larger Border Force Cutters to complete longer-range operations around the coast. Their shallow draft makes them ideal for patrolling close to shore, accessing marinas and beaches where waters are shallow
Border Force wish to explore with the market the following two options:
Option 1 Bare Boat Charter

rationale:
Need for modification brought about by circumstances which a diligent contracting authority/entity could not foresee: The impact of COVID-19 has meant that DWP and DfC were not able to launch the re procurement of PIP as planned in March 2020. Extensions to the existing contracts are needed to fully understand and evaluate the impacts of COVID-19 ahead of future procurements as well as to stabilise the assessment service.
The impact of COVID-19 has been, and continues to be, very significant. The assessment service has had to be very quickly adapted, in particular to suspend face to face assessments and mobilise alternative methods of delivery to support claimants.
Given that PIP is a critical statutory welfare benefit that caters for vulnerable people, a gap in service provision is not an option.

description:
Secure assessment service continuity and stability beyond the current contracts end date on 31/07/21 extending the Lot 4 contract for the period 01/08/21 to 31/07/23.
Provide the contractual flexibility for any subsequent changes to ongoing service design necessitated by Covid-19 measures and any associated Policy changes made, during the extension period.
Transition to a Cost Plus funding model for the extension period to strike the right level of risk ownership to drive optimal performance and to address the continuing impact of Covid-19.

The CCG is looking to award a contract for GP Services Farrier House Surgery, based in Worcester to SW Healthcare, which is a Federation of GP Surgeries based in Worcestershire.   The contract service includes 1) Provision of full GMS Services, 2) Achievement of additional Key performance indicators in the following areas: Access, Patient Engagement, Childhood Vaccinations and Immunisations, Cytology and Flu Vaccinations, Homeless and Vulnerable Housed Service.  The current registered population for Farrier House Surgery includes a large proportion of university students.
It is seeking to do a Direct Award under Regulation 32 (b) (ii) where competition is unlikely to be financially viable and changing provider at this crucial time in post-pandemic recovery period would be disruptive to patient pathways and not in the patients’ interests.
The CCG is therefore looking to Directly award a contract to SW Healthcare for a period of Five years with an option to extend for a period of 24 months which constitutes an estimated contract value of around £4,424,000. The anticipated go-live date of this contract will be from 1st April 2022.  This Direct Award follows on from the current contract which was awarded in April 2021 to SW Healthcare, continuing on from the original competitive procurement awarded in 2015.

description: The CCG is looking to award a contract for GP Services Farrier House, based in Worcester to SW Healthcare.  SW Healthcare is a Federation of GP Surgeries based in Worcestershire.  It is seeking to directly award this contract under Regulation 32 (b) (ii) where competition is unlikely to be financially viable and changing provider at this crucial time in post-pandemic recovery period would be disruptive to patient pathways and not in the patients’ interests.

description: Health and social work services

procurementMethodRationale: Under the NHS Long Term Plan Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs) are working towards a model of more integrated care within Primary Care alongside PCN and GP organisations. This model is still being developed in Herefordshire & Worcestershire. In the light of the current Covid 19 emergency situation, the focus of work is centred around post pandemic recovery. It would be unduly disruptive to the continuity of services for patients and cause substantial duplication of costs for the CCG to undertake a further procurement process at this point in time. It has become necessary therefore for the CCG, under Regulation 32 (b) (ii) to directly award a contract to SW Healthcare to ensure continuity and integrity of pathways during the next few years in post-pandemic recovery and during a period of immense change due to the development of new integrated pathways within the GP and PCN arena in Primary Care.  Regulation 32 (b) (ii) states..>”where competition is absent for technical reasons…”The CCG does not feel that competition for this service exists at a viable financial level.  The Fall-out from the pandemic emergency has now changed to post pandemic recovery efforts and this requires a focus on crucial resources to regain pre-pandemic levels of service and care.  To change provider and pathways at this point would not be in the patients’ interests.
