This PIN has been issued for information only. The identified procurement route is the CCS Management Consultancy Framework 3 RM6187.
Bristol has recently participated in the Department for Education’s Delivering Better Value in SEND programme. The programme seeks  to support local authorities and their local area partners to improve the delivery of SEND services for children and young people whilst working towards financial sustainability. Bristol have completed the diagnostic and are moving into implementation. We are seeking a delivery partner to project manage delivery of the key findings.
They will lead their programme team and direct transformation resource to secure successful delivery of agreed outputs.
It is expected that the external partner will work with the council’s Portfolio Management Office, other Corporate Services and the Children & Education Directorate to establish, maintain and adhere to a programme governance framework.
The external partner must support knowledge transfer at the beginning and end of the programme and ensure they codify final deliverables and structure working papers before the end of the contract.
The Delivery Partner will undertake a further analysis and review of Bristol’s existing SEND funding model to identify, define and measure problems relating to efficiency, effectiveness and value for money. A detailed options appraisal will be developed for full public consultation in the areas of:
a)	Effective and sustainable use of non-statutory top up funding
b)	Standardisation of statutory top-up funding and the model for funding Bristol’s special schools (maintained and academies)
c)	Realignment of Post-16 funding to ensure adherence to current DfE/ESFA guidelines (including review of use of non-statutory top up funding).
The intention is to create a fair, transparent, consistent and financially sustainable model, which achieves good outcomes for children and young with SEND through robust monitoring and accountability frameworks. The Delivery Partner will use co-production with parents/carers, children and education partners to ensure the change process is collaborative, clearly communicated, understood and fit for purpose.
We are looking for a provider that has a track record in delivering well-defined projects within local authority/other public sector organisation. The provider will be able to competently hold and deliver against a time critical piece, and will have excellent stakeholder engagement and collaboration skills to promote understanding and need for change. Previous experience of delivering against SEND projects would be advantageous.

This notice is placed as a Prior Information Notice (PIN) to inform the market that NHS England (NHSE) South East (the Commissioner) intends to commission specialist maternity care services for patients diagnosed with Placenta Accreta Spectrum (PAS). Please note: this has previously been referred to as Abnormally Invasive Placenta (AIP) and is referenced as AIP within the national specification, but will be referenced as PAS throughout any further published documentation.
The Commissioner would like to understand the level of provider interest in delivering these services, to help identify any existing or potential capacity and to inform the procurement strategy and contracting options.
Consideration is being given to procuring a number of separate contracts, subject to the outcome of market and stakeholder engagement. This may result in a multi-lotted procurement process.
NHS England commissions specialist maternity care services for women suspected of, and diagnosed with, PAS from PAS Centres. These services include specialist prenatal diagnosis and risk assessment and definitive treatment of PAS by a multidisciplinary team (MDT) with expertise in complex pelvic surgery.
PAS Centres provide specialised treatment as part of a regional network arrangement with local maternity services, in accordance with predefined referral guidelines and protocols. PAS Centres have:
• Antenatal imaging (foetal medicine or radiology)
• Adult intensive care
• Level three neonatal intensive care services
• Immediate access to blood products.
The aims of the service are to:
• Accurately diagnose PAS and determine the clinical risk it poses
• Maximise safety for the mother by providing high quality specialised multidisciplinary care for the delivery of women at high risk of PAS.
This will be achieved by delivering an evidence-based service that:
• Prevents avoidable deaths in a population at very high risk of mortality
• Minimises ITU admission and length of stay in ITU
• Reduces blood product administration
• Reduces the risk of severe maternal morbidity such as cardiac arrest, fistula formation and lower urinary tract trauma
• Reduces risk of unnecessary surgical procedures including vertical abdominal incision and hysterectomy
• Reduces the risk of iatrogenic injury to women from false positive diagnoses
• Improves safety for the baby by minimising iatrogenic premature delivery
• Ensures that the quality of the care provided is nationally monitored and subject to a process of continued improvement
• Participate in national data collection to improve understanding.
If you are interested in this opportunity, please register on the e-procurement system, Atamis (details at the end of this notice), by 24th May 2023. A copy of the national service specification can also be found on the Atamis portal.

The UK Government has set its ambition to deliver 50Gw of green energy by 2030 delivered by numerous offshore windfarms that shall be built and commissioned during a rolling programme of works from 2025 and beyond. The fleet of UK Air Defence (AD) Radars are installed strategically around the UK and provide the Recognised Air Picture (RAP) The UK Government has set its ambition to deliver 50Gw of green energy by 2030 delivered by numerous offshore windfarms that shall be built and commissioned during a rolling programme of works from 2025 and beyond. The fleet of UK Air Defence (AD) Radars are installed strategically around the UK and provide the Recognised Air Picture (RAP) enabling UK air defence system to identify non-cooperative targets within the UK area of interest, enabling the Quick Reaction Alert (QRA) in support to National Security Objective 1 (NSO1).
Each of the future offshore windfarms will have a unique, detrimental impact upon the RAP as they will reduce the volume of air space that the AD radars can effectively survey,reducing the MOD’s ability to deliver its tasks under NSO1.
Programme NJORD (herein referred to as NJORD) has been established in response to a need for capabilities that will mitigate the negative impact introduced by offshore windfarms and maintain, the RAP at its full capability as established prior to the introduction of offshore windfarms. NJORD is an RAF programme with the procurement activity and contract management, through life for the capability / capabilities, being managed by the Air Defence and Electronic Warfare Systems (ADEWS) Delivery Team (DT) within Defence Equipment & Support as the RAF’s delivery agent. To achieve this, NJORD shall focus on ensuring the continued Primary Surveillance capability currently provided by the RAF’s air defence remote radar heads which would otherwise be degraded by offshore windfarms. The capability may be comprised of an asset or assets that mitigate individual windfarms or numerous assets that comprise a system of mitigations. The anticipated potential solutions for the procurement include but are not limited to the following.
• TAO 1 – Replace the current AD radar fleet.
• TAO 2 - Gap Fill Radar / Supplementary Radar.
• TAO 3 - Adjunct System / Modification to AD radar fleet.
• TAO 4 - Unmanned Air Vehicle (UAV)s.
• TAO 5 - Low orbit satellite technology.
• TAO 6 - Optical Trackers.
This further Market Interest Day is a briefing from the Authority to Industry, during which the Authority will describe the requirement and incremental delivery approach. The intention is to set up a framework for mitigation solutions that will be procured through a series of call-off competitions including trial demonstrations. We will invite Industry comments which will be documented and shared to those present at the event.
Should your Organisation wish to attend the further Market Interest Day please contact the following email address to register your interest: DESADEWS-ProgNjord@mod.gov.uk  so that we can engage with you regarding this event. Industry attendance will not be limited, as the event will be conducted over Microsoft Teams. Responses for attending are requested by 12th May 2023
Whilst this PIN is entirely focused on achieving NJORD, any subsequent framework that is established, may also be used for future AD Radar.
We look forward to hearing from you.
