title: The provision of an Integrated Urgent Care Service to NHS Devon Integrated Care Board

status: active

status: cancelled

description:
NHS Devon ICB (the Commissioner) has awarded a contract for the provision of an Integrated Urgent Care Service (IUCS) for Devon.
The contract is for the provision of:
• 111 call handling services (NHS 111)
• Clinical Assessment of 111 calls through the Clinical Assessment Service (CAS)
• Out of Hours GP provision (OOH)
The NHS Long Term Plan clearly set out the need to act in redesigning the NHS urgent care 'access point', moving towards a "consult and complete" model.
NHS 111 provides a vital service to help people with urgent care needs to get assessment, clinical advice, and treatment quickly. The service is significantly enhanced by increasing clinical consultation for patients calling 111, so that more patients get the care and advice they need over the phone, and only those who genuinely need to attend A&E or use the ambulance service are advised to do this. All other patients have their issue resolved over the phone if possible, or if not will be directed to appropriate primary care or community services, with an emphasis on strongly supporting patients in self-care.
The core vision for the IUC service in Devon builds upon the success of NHS 111 in simplifying access for patients and increasing the confidence that they, commissioner, health
professionals and most importantly the public have in services.
The offer is easy access to urgent health care services that is fully integrated with all aspects of the system - through NHS 111. Integration sees urgent care services collaborating to deliver high quality, clinical assessment, advice, and treatment, with shared standards and processes and clear accountability and leadership. The 111 number must become the single telephony access
point.
The Clinical Assessment Service (CAS) is central to this, offering patients access to clinicians, both experienced generalists and specialists (such as Dental Nurses, Mental Health Nurses and Palliative Care Nurses). These clinicians will also be available to health professional colleagues who work with patients in the community, such as paramedics and nurses in nursing homes. Primary care out of hours and 111 services have been combined, and multidisciplinary clinicians added to the integrated working model. IUC services will book people into urgent face- to-face appointments where needed.
This processed was managed by NHS South, Central and West Commissioning Support Unit (SCW) on behalf of the Commissioner in 2022 this notice is being issued retrospectively to allow a link to a modification notice. The original contract notice 2022/S 000-004971 was issued in 2022. Additional information: At the end of the initial contract term the Commissioner will have an extension option for any number of periods up to a maximum of 3 years (with any initial extension period used being no less than 12 months), which will be awarded at their discretion (within a budget of £167m over 8 years if the full contract term is
fulfilled).
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).

Note that participation in the pre-market engagement exercises is not a prerequisite to participating in this Procurement, nor does it confer any advantage with respect to the Procurement for this opportunity. The Council encourages small and medium-sized enterprises to participate in this Procurement, either as Candidates, consortium members, supply-chain partners or sub-contractors.

•	Emergency Response – e.g. responding to emergencies across the network due to weather, emergency services support, vehicle collisions, and structural asset failure both in hours and out of hours, 24/7/365.
•	Highway Improvement Scheme Delivery – e.g. construction of schemes for crash remedial measures, engineering and traffic schemes and S.106 requirements.
The below is a summary of the indicative scope for the Contract:
•	Routine maintenance
•	Highways schemes
•	Structures and Tunnels maintenance
•	High Speed Road maintenance programme

description:
Kent County Council (the “Council”) is seeking to appoint a service provider (“Service Provider”) to deliver a highways term maintenance contract (the “Contract”). The Council’s highway term maintenance services are delivered through the Council’s existing contract (“Current HTMC”), which expires on 30 April 2026. The Council intends to enter into the new Contract by November 2025 to allow sufficient time for implementation and to ensure service continuity from the expiry of the Current HTMC. The initial term of the Contract is expected to be 14 years (168 months) (plus a six (6) month mobilisation period during which Task Orders will be issued under the Contract for the initial term). There will be an option to extend the Contract up to a maximum aggregate of 7 years   (84 months). Please note that it is expected that TUPE may apply to the new Contract.
Further information about this procurement can be found in the Project Information Memorandum (“PIM”) and the SQ, which are available through the Kent Business Portal.  Please note that a ‘request to participate’ for the purposes of this contract notice (in particular, Section IV.2.2) is by completion and return of the Selection Questionnaire (“SQ”) by the stated deadline of 25 November 2024 – 1200hrs. The draft scope, Contract, and Invitation to Tender (“ITT”) are being released two weeks after the initial SQ documents to ensure Candidates focus their time and efforts on the SQ during the initial weeks of the Selection Stage.
The Council intends to invite the top four (4) scoring Candidates from the Selection Stage to participate in an introductory meeting and submit an Initial Tender. At the Initial Tender Stage, the Council intends to further shortlist Tenderers from four (4) to three (3). The three (3) shortlisted Tenderers will be invited to discuss and negotiate the draft Contract, leases and scope and will be offered the opportunity to provide a mark-up of those documents  as part of the Detailed Tender Stage. The Council will consider all proposed amendments and comments from Tenderers at the Detailed Tender Stage prior to issuing a final version of the draft Contract, scope and leases to all Tenderers, against which final Tenders are to be submitted. Tenderers will be required to confirm acceptance of the final version of the draft Contract, which will be evaluated on a “Pass/Fail” basis.
The Council will identify the most economically advantageous tender (“MEAT”) using the Price per Quality Point evaluation method, subject to the Tenderers passing any minimum requirements (e.g. “Pass/Fail” and/or minimum quality scores).
The Council currently anticipates that the Service Provider will provide all the fleet. However, the Council is exploring the option of either buying or leasing the gritting fleet and/or buying the gritting salt directly; this is still to be determined, and further details will be provided at the Initial Tender Stage. This Procurement also includes the potential for the local authorities listed at Section II.2.11 below to have access to and enter into Task Orders under the Contract with the Service Provider in order to deliver specific schemes/projects.

performanceTerms: There is the potential for a contract extension of a further 7 years (84 months), depending on both the success in achieving the required outcomes and the availability of further funding.

The Authority invited tenders for an event contract for the operation and management of HPMF, originally procured for a six-year period starting on 30 June 2020 and ending on 30 June 2025. The Contract was awarded on 29 September 2020 to the Event Organiser. The Contract was subsequently amended on account of legal proceedings challenging the Contract award decision and the Pandemic as well as for an additional Two Slots to be held in 2022, 2023 and 2024 which had become necessary because a concession contract for an event in September had expired during the Pandemic. The proposed variation to the Contract will allow the Event Organiser to hold nine (instead of seven) concerts in 2025, 2026 and 2027 as well as a one-year Contract extension to 2028. In 2028 the Event Organiser will host six concerts and three Fan Zones.
The modified Contract will have a term expiring in 2028.
All of the events permissible each year under the contract (including the Two Slots and the Fan Zones) will be held within a three-week time period in June and July each year.

title: Hyde Park Music Festival 2022-2027

description:
The purpose of this Voluntary Ex-ante Transparency Notice is to inform the market of the additional services to be performed by AEG Presents Ltd ("Event Organiser") in respect of contract for the operation and management of the Hyde Park Music Festival ("HPMF"), originally procured for a period of 6 years starting on 30 June 2020 and ending on 30 June 2025 (the "Contract").
The Contract has previously been amended on account of legal proceedings challenging the Contract award decision and the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic (the "Pandemic"): the combined effect of these events was that the HPMF first took place in 2022. Subsequently, there was a further amendment to allow the Event Organiser to hold two additional days' worth of annual events (the "Two Slots") in 2022, 2023 and 2024 such that nine instead of seven concerts were held each year.
This Voluntary Ex-ante Transparency Notice gives notice that the Authority proposes to vary the terms of the Contract to allow the Event Organiser to host an additional Two Slots in 2025, 2026 and 2027 and an additional one year extension for 2028. In 2028 the Authority is mandated to host three fan-zones for the UEFA Euro 2028 (the "Fan Zones") which will take place as the same time as the HPMF.  The only viable location for the Fan Zones is in the same location as the HPMF in Hyde Park (the "Park").
Accordingly, the proposed variation to the Contract will allow the Event Organiser to hold nine (instead of seven) concerts in 2025, 2026 and 2027 as well as a one-year Contract extension to 2028 in which the Event Organiser will host three Fan Zones and six concerts.

procurementMethodRationale:
This is an Event Services contract (the main CPV code being 79952000). It is therefore classified as 'social and other specific services' listed in Schedule 3 of the Concession Contracts Regulations 2016, to which Regulation 43 of the CCR does not apply. The Authority has decided to publish this Voluntary Ex-ante Transparency Notice as a matter merely of transparency.
Notwithstanding the above, the Authority considers the variation and extension to the Contract is required on the following grounds:
- The cost of staging smaller standalone events (whether that be the Two Slots and/or the Fan Zones) would be prohibitively expensive and would cause significant disruption to the Park environment and its visitors. In particular, the necessity of staging the HPMF and Fan Zones within the same space and timeframe is operationally complex and requires a contractor who has sufficient technical experience of how best to utilise the relevant infrastructure to meet the demands of both types of event, one of which (as of 11 April 2023 TRP was advised by DCMS that it was required to stage the Fan Zones) has been mandated and imposed on the Authority (albeit at cost).
- It is therefore not practical for HPMF to be operated in 2028 by a different contractor from the Event Organiser. Delivering both the music concerts and Fan-Zones would be operationally difficult for a new provider without the Event Organiser's level of experience and may cause significant inconvenience and potentially a duplication of costs for the Authority.
- The proposed amendments are not substantial as that expression is defined in Regulation 43(9). The character and nature of the Contract remains the same as that of the initially concluded Contract. The economic balance remains unchanged because the amendment does not change the reward and risk mechanism in the Contract. Instead, it provides for the least disruptive means for the Authority to deliver HPMF and Fan-Zones which has both a public benefit and a financial benefit which ultimately accrues to the Authority, which is the trading arm of a registered charity.
In so far as it is necessary for it to do so, the Authority will rely on Regulation 43(1)(e).
