description: An overview of the NWRR Project and the Outline Business Case including a copy of the General Arrangement Drawing (Appendix A) may be found on the Council's website. The Council is currently proposing to use the Competitive Procedure with Negotiation in the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 to award the contract for the NWRR Project. It is envisaged that the contract notice to commence the formal procurement will be issued at the end of January 2024 although this may be subject to change. The anticipated form of contract is the NEC4 Engineering and Construction Contract (“ECC ”) with Main Option C, Secondary Option Clauses and amendments by way of Z clauses. The Council is inviting potential lead contractors experienced in leading and delivering similar major capital highways projects of similar size (at least £50 million in value) to contact the Council for a short individual meeting in advance of the formal procurement process. These meetings are intended to help the Council understand the following with regard to a major capital highways project of this nature: (a) the market’s expectations in respect of risk allocation (e.g. in terms of costs, delays and liabilities); (b) the market’s current approach to pricing; (c) the market’s potential to achieve tangible social value benefits; and (d) any other risks or issues that could affect the successful delivery of the NWRR Project that might need to be taken into account when preparing the procurement. Potential lead contractors interested in attending a meeting with the Council are requested to contact the Council at the e-mail address in section I.1 above by no later than 3pm on 12 January 2024. Subject to capacity constraints, the Council plans to hold individual meetings (each of up to an hour long) with potential lead contractors who respond within the above specified timescale on 17 and 18 January 2024. Such meetings will be held on an individual basis via Microsoft Teams. Any information provided by potential lead contractors in response to this market engagement exercise and highlighted as commercially sensitive will be treated as such and not disclosed to any third parties without the express written permission of the potential lead contractor concerned. Non-participation in this market engagement process does not preclude any potential lead contractors from participating in the formal procurement process. The Council is running this market engagement exercise in compliance with the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 and will take steps to ensure that any potential lead contractor who participates in the market engagement exercise is not put at an unfair advantage and that competition in relation to the award of the eventual public contract for the NWRR Project is not otherwise distorted. Any additional information about the NWRR Project provided by the Council during the course of the individual sessions will be collated by the Council and distributed to all potential lead contractors who participate in this market engagement exercise. Such information will also be shared as part of the procurement documentation published in the ensuing formal procurement procedure. Note, the NWRR project is subject to funding and approval by the Council.

rationale: Need for additional works, services or supplies by the original contractor/concessionaire: By way of explanation, the NIIAS is hosted centrally to support the auditing of digital solutions across Wales to ensure appropriate and proactive monitoring of the data contained in the Single Patient Record across NHS Wales. It is a bespoke solution fully embedded in national systems across the NHS in Wales and was specially developed for NHS Wales.  It cannot be used by an alternative economic operator due to the limited licence in the current agreement.  The intellectual property rights vest in the current provider and are licensed to DHCW on a non-exclusive and non-transferrable basis solely for the duration of the contract. The services can only be supplied by the current provider due to the protection of exclusive intellectual property rights which exist in the solution and no reasonable alternative or substitute exists.

description:
Extension of contract term for a further thirty-six (36) months from 24th November 2023 to 23rd November 2026 on the same terms as the original contract.
Insubstantial modification and/or award of a contract by negotiated procedure without prior publication on the basis that the services can only be supplied by a particular economic operator due to the protection of exclusive intellectual property rights which exist in the current NIIAS and no reasonable alternative or substitute exists.

description:
The absence of competition is not the result of an artificial narrowing down of the parameters of the procurement.  Extension of the current contract by way of modification and/or direct award, is the only viable option to ensure continuity of service.
The contract was extended by twenty-four (24) months prior to expiry on 23rd November 2021 as a result of (i) the Covid-19 global pandemic and (ii) the exit of Blaenavon Data Centre impacting on resources to ensure continuity of NIIAS as a critical component of NHS Wales' national healthcare information systems.  That initial extension period has proved insufficient to undertake a market assessment for a replacement solution, review the purpose and functionality of the NIIAS on an All Wales basis and carry out a re-tender exercise.  This further extension of thirty-six (36) months is considered to be the minimum period required to undertake these exercises.  Service continuity is imperative to ensure the safety of patient care and services across the NHS in Wales.  As the NIIAS is a bespoke solution, embedded within NHS organisations across Wales and the intellectual property rights are reserved to the provider and used only on licence during the term of the agreement, the contracting authority is entitled to make this award under Regulation 32(2)(b)(iii) and/or modify the contract under Regulation 72(1)(e) of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 as an extension of the term alone is insubstantial.  The modification does not:
- render the contract materially different in character;
- introduce conditions which would have allowed for the admission of other candidates, attracted other participants or resulted in a different outcome;
- changes the economic balance of the contract in favour of the contractor in a manner which was not provided for in the initial contract;
- extend the scope of the contract significantly; or
- change the contractor.”
Continuation of the solution is required to comply with data protection obligations.  Given the sensitivities of the global digital environment, it is essential that the service continues without interruption to ensure the safety of patient care and services.  The modification/contract duration is limited to 3 years to :
- enable DHCW to develop a long-term strategy for auditing clinical systems in line with emerging government policy;
- undertake a market engagement exercise to understand the solutions available; and
- use that knowledge to develop a business case to secure central funding from the Welsh Government for a replacement long-term solution.
This will be underpinned by a thorough technical review of available solutions and a consultation period with NHS Wales to understand local and national requirements for a longer-term contract.  Finally, the duration allows sufficient time to run a procurement process and exit from the existing solution which is interfaced in a significant number of national clinical systems and to manage a transfer to a replacement solution.
Accordingly, the contracting authority is entitled to modify the contract under Regulation 72(1)(e) of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 and/or make this award under Regulation 32(2)(b)(iii). This notice is a ‘relevant contract award notice’ for the purposes of Regulation 93(3) of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 and the contracting authority relies on the provisions in Regulation 93(2), (3) and (4) in relation to the applicable limitation period.

procurementMethodRationale:
Regulation 32 exempt: 32(2)(b)(ii) whereby competition is absent for technical reasons.
HSE asserts its belief that Actian UK Ltd. is the only economic operator in the EU that is capable of supporting HSE in respect of delivering the services required. The contract is for licence subscriptions and database hosting.  The licences permit the continued use and support of the products on application servers, (hosted) database servers and user licences for use of the products. Actian UK Ltd. owns the intellectual property and copyright; it sells licences and services direct to its customers and the licences and services are not available through resellers or any other third party.  Licences are enabled by a unique key, provided by Actian UK Ltd. without which all products cease to work, functionality ceases and data becomes unavailable.  All of Chemical Regulation Division's (a Division of the Health and Safety Executive) current business systems (circa 90) have been built using Actian's OpenRoad Applications and Ingres Databases.  These systems were first built in 1995, transferred to HSE ownership from DEFRA in 2008 and have been in constant use since then, iterated upon and improved.   Some of these systems are public facing and all 90 systems have to be replaced or decommissioned to allow this product suite to be removed from the HSE IT estate.  As such, they are embedded inextricably in CRD's business operations. The CRD Biocides and Pesticides Transformation Programme (BPT) is targeting the removal of most of these services.  HSE has procured the replacement Case Management and Database System in Microsoft Dynamics 365 and the BPT Programme has procured the Systems Integrator to design and build new services which will replace the existing services that are on Actian, ultimately conducting a data migration of data out of Actian and into Dynamics 365.   Consequently, Actian will not be replaced with a "like for like" contract or solution, and will be decommissioned once new services are ready. It was fully anticipated that replacement would be a multi-year activity due to the scale of business process reengineering, design and service development.  The BPT programme is behind schedule due to technical complications and, whilst delivering some replacement services in March 2024, it will not deliver all of its objectives for at least 24 months.   HSE asserts its belief that it is not reasonable technically to expect that alternative services, to those either built on Actian's existing solutions or being developed by the BPT programme, could be procured to design and develop systems before the current replacement programme is expected to deliver its outcomes.  Continued use of Actian is therefore considered the only reasonable technical mechanism to maintain the services supporting HSE regulatory duties alongside delivering its replacement programme.

title: SE1051 Active Places and GIS Managed Service

description: Design, build and operate a new solution for Active Places, the national sports facility database and web-based user platforms, and Sport England's geospatial infrastructure.

Commercial

type: cost

description:
Sport England is seeking to vary the SE1051 Active Places contract with Atkinsrealis UK Limited to include additional services valued at £507,074.
Active Places, the national sports facility database and its user interfaces, underpin the strategic planning of sports provision in England. Mapping and geospatial analysis within Active Places, and wider Sport England systems, are provided by an associated geospatial infrastructure which supplies both data and geoprocessing (i.e. routing/catchment, geocoding, proximity) services.  To support Sport England's new strategy, Uniting the Movement, and growth in Place-Based working, we are seeking to reshape, realign and redevelop Active Places and its allied GIS infrastructure to ensure the organisation and wider sector can fully leverage the benefits from the sports facility data held in Active Places and Sport England's other corporate spatial data holdings.
Sport England advertised and awarded this contract in December 2022 via Digital Outcomes and Specialists 5.
This is a voluntary notice, for transparency, prior to the variation of that contract.This brings the total value of the contract to £1,633,905.

description: Mapping software development services

procurementMethodRationale:
This procurement was advertised and awarded via Digital Outcomes and Specialists 5, a Crown Commercial Services framework, and does not require publication in Find-a-Tender. Award was following a competitive procedure through the Digital Marketplace.
This is a voluntary transparency notice.
Additional works and services have been become necessary in the delivery of this contract. A change of supplier would not be practicable (for economic, technical and interoperability reasons) and would involve substantial inconvenience and duplication of costs. The additional requirements are a function of a) the requirement, identified during project discovery, for a highly configurable APDP implementation, and b) associated additional complexity which demands highly skilled developers (senior resources) within the team.
Continuation with the appointed supplier ensures that product knowledge and familiarity with the development approach can be leveraged and implementation velocity maximised.  Extension of the existing solution has been identified as carrying significant risk and financial overhead. This approach is supported by commercial assessment of the original digital marketplace responses.

Ageing Well Southwark is a preventative, community-based service for older people and carers in Southwark. Currently, Ageing Well Southwark delivers the following services:
1.	An information and advice service for older people and carers.
2.	A facilitation service, which is similar to social prescribing. The service connects older people and carers with their wider community and supports their independence and wellbeing via signposting, referrals, and/or one-to-one personalised support.
3.	A range of groups, activities and services for older people and carers that could improve their health and wellbeing and/or prevent, reduce, or delay their care and support needs. Examples include befriending, exercise classes, creative sessions, IT support, peer support, and the ‘Happy Feet’ toenail cutting service.
In addition to the above services, Southwark Council would like to explore commissioning an integrated ‘front door’ for the Adult Social Care Older People and Physical Disabilities service. The intention is to design a service that identifies where residents’ needs would be best met by the Ageing Well Hub, rather than statutory services, and supports these residents accordingly.
Southwark Council is keen to engage with providers in the design of a future model for Ageing Well Southwark. We would like to hear from any organisations that have experience providing these services to further understand:
•	Interest in working in Southwark.
•	Views on service components, including potential challenges, issues and/or risks.
•	Preferred service and contracting models.
Interested providers are requested to complete a questionnaire (appendix A) and to return it via the messaging service on the Proactis portal, not later than 5pm on Friday 12th January 2024.

rationale:
Need for modification brought about by circumstances which a diligent contracting authority/entity could not foresee: Completion of RIBA 3 moved from Aug to Nov 2022 which was also
then linked to the contractors requesting an extension of time on
the ITT period. This lead to an unforeseen prolongation of the MDT
work. The chosen contractor then reviewed the RIBA 2 docs, and
submitted a programme to move PAC from Aug 2023 to Nov 2023.
This led to an unforeseen prolongation of the programme and impacted the contract end date.

On 7 June Scottish Government announced that the DRS would be extended to October 2025 at the earlier, and this notification did not leave sufficient time for revised internal requests for procurement to receive the necessary approval for the Procurement team to advertise and for the Service and finance teams to evaluate the tenders before the contract end date

description: Direct award of a contract for an Implementation Partner to support a SAP Upgrade and SAP on Azure Infrastructure under Regulation 32 of the Public Procurement Regulations 2015, and Protocol 8 of the Council’s Standing Orders Relating to Contracts.

title: CST105 Implementation Partner for SAP Upgrade and SAP on Azure Infrastructure

description: IT services: consulting, software development, Internet and support

procurementMethodRationale:
The Council has awarded under Regulation 32(2)(b)(ii), where the works, supplies or services can be supplied only by a particular economic operator as competition is absent for technical reasons and no reasonable alternative or substitute exists. It is believed that this regulation is applicable for the following reasons:
(1) HCL has built Derbyshire specific data loaders and gained detailed knowledge of the Derbyshire SAP system as it successfully completed three rounds of migration of 12 years worth of production data (3 TB) as well as the successful testing of 62 mission critical interfaces and full UAT including payroll regression testing. The re-use of HCL’s data loaders and fix on fail code knowledge is an accelerator and will de-risk the delivery of the programme. Selecting a new system implementer would mean that both data migration and code remediation will have to be started afresh again at a significant additional cost and a much longer delivery time.
(2) For the Azure infrastructure services, HCL have a detailed understanding of the specific implementation of SAP S/4HANA as per the Council’s requirements as they were responsible for the SAP software implementation. Procuring these services from another 3rd party service provider would result in significant additional complexity in delivering the SAP Upgrade programme as the Council will need to provide knowledge transfer to the new party and manage all the interaction and dependencies between the new 3rd party and the implementation team.

title: Gamma Calibration Facility Upgrade

description: This is a VEAT Notice regarding the intention to award a contract to Gemini Technology. A contract is to be awarded for a Gamma Calibration Facility Upgrade on the Dounreay Site. This is required to maintain site capability for the calibration of Radiological Protection Instrumentation
