This project will obtain up to date counts of species within colonies known to be impacted by Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) and which also are a potential consenting constraint for offshore wind farm (OWF) projects. Monitoring of numbers of breeding birds/pairs at a range of colonies and across several years (2024-2026) will provide robust estimates of Special Protection Area (SPA) population sizes that have been affected by HPAI for use in environmental assessments. This project will help document any further substantial changes to population sizes caused by outbreaks of HPAI during 2023 and beyond. This project will build upon colony counts undertaken during 2023 to help assess the ongoing impacts of HPAI. The project will also gather productivity data from a representative set of colonies, examine how these may vary temporally and spatially, and compare them with historic estimates. Consideration must also be given to how this updated information will be used in environmental assessments. Particular attention must be given to the need to consider SPA and non-SPA colonies in apportioning calculations and in determining whether, if not all colonies can be counted, how representative sampling of population size and productivity will be ensured.  Given uncertainties about colony monitoring work that will be undertaken by other organisations in the future, as well as uncertainties around the future areas impacted by HPAI, the development of a thorough and clear monitoring plan by the contractor on an annual basis will be key to this work. Engagement with other bodies who may be planning on undertaking monitoring will also be crucial to avoid duplication of effort.
The overarching objectives of the project are therefore:
A. Develop and maintain a clear monitoring plan for relevant seabird colony counts;
B. Obtain up to date seabird colony population size and productivity data for agreed colonies;
C. Identify any spatial and temporal variation or patterns in changes in population size or productivity as a result of HPAI;
D. Consider how the new information collected should be incorporated into environmental assessments Additional information: Economic operators may be excluded from this competition if they are in any of the situations referred to in regulation 58 of the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015.

title: Monitoring+Maintenance of a Remote Temperature + Environmental Monitoring System

description: The Animal and Plant Health Agency (APHA) require service, maintenance and calibration of the existing (Checkit Europe Ltd) remote temperature and environmental monitoring system.

description: Environmental monitoring other than for construction

procurementMethodRationale:
Based on the information detailed below, and publication of a VEAT Notice on 18/03/2024, it was concluded that Checkit Europe Ltd is the only supplier able to meet APHA's requirements.

Checkit Europe Ltd own the IPR to the equipment and software provided to / accessed by APHA under the current contract. Further investigation has confirmed that there are no re-sellers of CAM+ Equipment providing related temperature monitoring services (so a restricted competition amongst current distributors would not be a valid route to market).

To enable connection between the Equipment and Supplier software, a new supplier would have to install their own Equipment to APHA laboratories, which links to their own software package. This would involve replacing approximately 824 items of Equipment across the APHA estate.

To unnecessarily remove and replace functioning Equipment would not only be a considerable expense and have a negative sustainability impact but would also, critically, have a significant and unacceptably disruptive effect on business-as-usual APHA scientific activities across the whole laboratory estate. (This would include containment facilities that can only be accessed by maintenance personnel during planned shutdowns, which only happen once per year.)

This notice details the intention to award a contract under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR) 2023 - Direct Award Process C.
The service seeks to improve outcomes for people living with Severe Mental Illness (SMI).
The life expectancy for people with SMI is 15-20 years lower than the general population. This disparity in health outcomes is partly due to physical health needs being overlooked. This service will seek to address the following key areas amongst others:
•	Smoking is the largest avoidable cause of premature death, with more than 40% of adults with SMI smoking.
•	Individuals with SMI also have double the risk of obesity and diabetes, three times the risk of hypertension and metabolic syndrome, and five times the risk of dyslipidaemia (imbalance of lipids in the bloodstream) than the general population.
The service ensures individuals living with SMI are consistently offered appropriate and timely physical health assessments despite their higher risk of poor physical health. Individuals are
supported to use available health information and offered advice or to take up tests and interventions that reduce the risk of preventable health conditions.
The service works proactively with Primary Care Networks (PCNs) to generate referrals for people on their Practice SMI Registers. The key target groups being those who need support to attend/engage with the Physical Health Check (PHC) and those having been identified as likely to benefit from Health Improvement intervention as a result of the PHC.
Referrals originate predominantly from PCNs/Practices; however, referrals from other agencies are acceptable should people meet the qualifying diagnosis.

Improving Access, Reducing Health Inequalities, and Facilitating Choice: This criterion underscores our commitment to promoting equitable access to healthcare services. It emphasises the importance of addressing health inequalities, ultimately leading to improved health outcomes for all.  The users of this service are those with SMI who are a target group in addressing health inequalities.
Social Value: Social Value recognises the potential impact of service changes on the local healthcare workforce and their contributions to broader social, economic, and environmental improvements in the community.

Standard Template for Explanation

This is a Provider Selection Regime (PSR) intention to award notice. The awarding of this contract is subject to the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 do not apply to this award. The publication of this notice marks the start of the standstill period. Representations by providers must be made to decision makers by 20/09/2024. This contract has not yet formally been awarded; this notice serves as an intention to award under the PSR. Any appeals to the decision must be made in due time to ali.babu@uhl-tr.nhs.uk.

The decision was made among the clinical service procurement team alongside the contracts & commissioning team, with consultation from the Tissue Bank General Manager. There were no declared conflicts of interest.

The award decision has been made subject to criteria listed under the PSR -

Quality and Innovation -

The current provider is audited internally by the Bone Bank on a yearly basis.  Trainng is updated and provided where needed. The provider is inspected every two years by the Human Tissue Authority.    Regular discussions / presentations held between Service Manager/Quality Lead and Service provider to make sure service is running smoothly and to identify and area that needs improvment.

Value  -

Spire Leicester Hospital do not charge the Trust any fees for this service.

Integration, Colloboration and service sustainability -

While the LBTB supply the provider with the required equipment (Freezers, consumables etc.) as agreed as part of the specification, the provider is supplying the space and staffing to run the satelite service. They provide a 24/7 service which allows the Trust access to the samples whenever they are required - Provider is 25 minutes away from the Leicester Glenfield Hospital site by car, where the service is centrally managed. As LBTB manage the equipment, we are able to ensure continuity of service can remain.

Improving access, reducing health inequalities and facilitating choice -

While the LBTB supply the provider with the required equipment (Freezers, consumables etc.) as agreed as part of the specification, the provider is supplying the space and staffing to run the satelite service. They provide a 24/7 service which allows the Trust access to the samples whenever they are required - Provider is located only 25 minutes away from the Leicester Glenfield Hospital site by car, where the service is centrally managed.

Social value-

Provider is located just 25 minutes away from the Leicester Glenfield Hospital site by car, where the service is centrally managed, allowing much lower impact on the environment than suppliers based further away. As the provider is based in Leicester, the staff hired to oversee the contract from their side will be local, allowing for a positive impact on the local economy.
