This is a market engagement exercise. The Partnership is seeking the views of healthcare providers for this service using a market engagement questionnaire. A Draft Specification and Draft Finance Information are available on the Atamis portal, with a questionnaire for interested potential bidders to complete, and asks some questions aimed at obtaining the views of prospective healthcare providers.
The East Berkshire Children and Young People therapy services brings together the health and local authority provision across the therapy services of Speech and Language, Occupational and Physiotherapy.
The fundamental aims of integrating the commissioning of children's therapy services and equipment is to remove duplication and inefficiencies, promote equality of access and increase value for money, with the resulting service improvements for children, young people, parents and carers.
The East Berkshire Children and Young People Therapy Services will ensure that all children and young people known to the service achieve their best possible developmental potential, physical and emotional health, and well-being both in childhood and through transition into adulthood.
The Service is an innovative therapy Service offering simple entry, strong, universal help, and high impact interventions, offered in coproduction with families and others. It is a community-based Service for children with short-, medium- and longer-term developmental needs in speech, language and communication, feeding, mobility, movement, sensory processing, and independent function. The Service is provided by Speech and Language Therapists, Occupational Therapists, Physiotherapists, and skilled assistants. The overarching aim is to maximise each child’s developmental potential, and secure independence, in a way that makes sense for the family.

The Service works closely in partnership with families, young people and others to:
•	Maximise children’s opportunities for integration into education and society.
•	Enjoy and achieve success.
•	Reach their potential.
•	Make a positive contribution to society.

The aim is to minimise dependence on therapists by giving families and staff the skills and confidence to ‘self-manage’.

For children with multiple, long-term conditions, the longer-term aim is to reduce admissions into hospital through:
•	The early identification of potential risks or changes in condition.

The envisaged contract period will be 5 years, with the option for the Partnership to extend for up to a further 2 years. The new contract will go live April 2025, with a 3-month prior mobilisation period to ensure implementation of critical services. There is a further 1-year mobilisation from contract award to deliver new elements of the services, as outlined in the Draft Specification.
The value of the contract is estimated to be £3,911,373.00 per annum. (£27,379,611 over the full 7-year lifetime of the contract). Please see detail in the Draft Finance Information, available on the Atamis portal.

It is the Partnership’s intention to shape their procurement process based on the responses to this PIN. The Partnership would therefore request potential bidders to complete and submit a response to the questionnaire.  The Partnership is open to hearing from providers who genuinely believe they would be in a position to provide this service and offer best value to the ICB. If this is the case, please complete the market engagement questionnaire and submit it via the Atamis portal by 12 noon 23 July 2024.

Interested providers will be able to view this notice via the 'Live Opportunities' list on the e-procurement system, Atamis, available on the following link: https://health-family.force.com/s/Welcome (Project C288513) and the Market Engagement will require the completion of an online questionnaire.
This process is being managed by NHS South, Central and West Commissioning Support Unit (SCW) on behalf of the Commissioners. Additional information: Interested providers will be able to view this notice via the 'Live Opportunities' list on the e-procurement system, Atamis, available on the following link: https://health-family.force.com/s/Welcome Project C288513
The services are deemed to be subject of The Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. This is therefore a Provider Selection Regime (PSR) intended approach notice. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 do not apply to this notice.

procurementMethodRationale:
Sheffield Hallam University (SHU) employs a Customer Relationship Management (CRM)platform to develop, support and maintain CRM capability for approximately 1,650 professional services and academic staff members along with self-service functionality for 32,000 students. The technology enables a higher availability of resources to users and engages the University's ability to deploy new business services rapidly. This current implementation will grow to meet demand and form the basis for further development of an integrated Enterprise System.
The accelerators in use that underpin our business critical process and those that drive the CRM platform are written by and provided by Tribal as proprietary owner; they cannot be provided by a different supplier.
To employ the use of different accelerators provided by a different supplier or to replace with bespoke development would take several years development work.
This is not cost effective it would put at risk business critical processes. If the University were to change approach with an aim to move away from using Tribal accelerators, we would still need to keep them for several years whilst transitioning, so a direct award would still be required.

rationale: Need for additional works, services or supplies by the original contractor/concessionaire: The Contract is performing well, and the extension has been built in the contract, which is performing well from a commercial perspective. Replacing such sole supplier with an in-depth knowledge of the service provision and the Corporation and Policing (a complex area for OH) would be worse commercially than extending the contract by two years avoiding procurement costs, and issues with onboarding, especially should the provider be changed.

311410 - Occupational Therapy Services
The City (the Relevant Authority)  is issuing this Modification Notice which is to be regarded as a VEAT Notice. At the present time, there is no equivalent to a VEAT Notice under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) 2023 (2023 Regulations) as there is under the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (PCR 2015) .
This Modification Notice is intended to inform the market of the City’s intention to extend a Contract for the provision of an Occupational Health Physician service for the Relevant Authority in it’s capacity not only as  a Local Authority, but also in it’s  capacity as a Police Authority with the current provider, Kennedy Occupational Health. The initial period of the contract is due to expire on the 31st July 2024.
The Relevant Authority advertised the procurement of the Contract initially for 2 years with the possibility of review, and continuation for a further 2 years subject to satisfactory and effective service delivery. The Contract was procured under the Light Touch Regime of the PCR 2015. The Contract Notice can be viewed on Find a Tender at: City of London & City of London Police Occupational Health Physician Contract - Contracts Finder  and the Contract Award Notice can be viewed on Find a Tender at City of London & City of London Police Occupational Health Physician - Contracts Finder
The service procured originally via the Light Touch Regime is now  subject to the 2023 Regulations. There is an option to extend the current Contract with Kennedy Occupational Health  beyond the 31stJuly 2024. The Relevant Authority has, in accordance with its own internal governance, sought approval to extend the Contract for a further two years with effect from the 1st August 2024 until the 31st July 2026. The service is a vital element of the Occupational Health Service and there cannot be any gap in this critical service provision. Any gap would be detrimental to the delivery of occupational health and safety advice to the organization, and would also impact upon the Relevant Authority  complying with its statutory duties under the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and other relevant legislation.
Whist the two year extension was within the permitted scope of the original procurement, in accordance with the transitional provisions set out in the 2023 Regulations, any modifications of the Contract will now be subject to the 2023 Regulations.
The total value of the Contract including the extension will now exceed the £500,000 threshold criteria set out in Regulation 13 ( 2) (b)  (i) of the 2023 Regulations . The value pertaining to this Modification Notice is  £382,880 increasing the contract value to £645,345.

The review of data received from N H S Talking Therapies counselling services indicates that a significant number of people who choose N H S Talking Therapies report feeling more able to cope and an improved health and wellbeing at the end of their intervention. Currently approximately one in two people who have a course of treatment in N H S Talking Therapies recover and two out of three people show worthwhile improvements in their mental health. Project BackgroundThe nationally led evidence based N H S Talking Therapies programme has been offered in Hertfordshire since 2008, previously called Improving Access to Psychological Therapies  and known as I A P T. In 2023 the I A P T programme was renamed N H S Talking Therapies for anxiety and depression to facilitate public recognition and clarify the clinical conditions that are treated in the services.The Council currently commissions on behalf of the Herts and West Essex I C B for the delivery of N H S Talking Therapies counselling services with six (6) providers working across Hertfordshire.  The Council is looking to commence a procurement as the current arrangements for N H S Talking Therapies Counselling Services delivered under a Hertfordshire County Council framework expire in January 2025. This framework contributes to the I C B’s N H S Talking Therapies programme. Expanding and developing the N H S Talking Therapies counselling services is a key element to meeting the aims set out in the N H S Long term plan for Mental Health. Current Project BriefThis brief is being used as an outline to engage with the market so the Council can discuss the opportunity with potentially interested organisations.

description: This proposal aims to procure in the region of around 200 standalone devices, supported by a phone application, that connects to a 24/7/365 third-party support desk. The device/app will enable wearers to alert or call for assistance, provide GPS location tracking, detect non-movement and impacts, and connect to the strongest phone signal via a roaming SIM. The third-party support desk will handle emergency calls and dispatch services directly to the lone worker's location.

title: Lone Worker Device

description:
There is a need for technology to support the health and safety requirements for lone working. The lone worker proposal directly aligns with National Highways “Home, Safe and Well”, which ensures no one should be harmed travelling or working on the strategic road network.  There must be the ability to monitor lone workers welfare and arrangements in place to ensure contact can be made in emergencies.
Inspectors often leave their vehicles to walk considerable distances, sometimes out of sight of the road, and navigate up and down verges to access parts of the network. Managers conduct individual risk assessments with staff to determine their suitability for working alone, ensuring there are not relevant medical issues, and staff routinely receive NH safety critical medical examinations.
Therefore National Highways is conducting Market Engagement to ascertain the market offering.

Smoking is the most important cause of preventable ill health and premature mortality in the UK. Smoking is a major risk factor for many diseases such as lung cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and heart disease. It is also associated with cancers in other organs, including lip, mouth, throat, bladder, kidney, stomach liver and cervix.
Smoking is a modifiable lifestyle risk factor; effective tobacco control measures can reduce the prevalence of smoking in the population.
Supporting people to stop smoking directly contributes to improving health and wellbeing. Evidence-based, specialist smoking cessation services are the most effective way to quit.

Neurological and neuropsychiatric disorders have an enormous social and economic impact - in 2019, brain disorders accounted for 500m years of healthy life lost.
Despite advances in brain-computer interfacing technologies, there have been very few serious attempts at engaging with the central nervous system at the circuit level, where disorders ranging from epilepsy to depression occur.
We see a critical opportunity to develop next-generation tools that interface with the human brain at the circuit level.
Operating across distributed brain regions and with cell type specificity, these new platform technologies could yield breakthroughs in disease understanding and diagnosis, alleviate bottlenecks in existing therapies, and move us closer to a world in which personalised brain health care is available to everyone.
Our goal: to unite the frontiers of engineered biology and hardware to treat many of the complex and devastating brain disorders affecting individuals and communities worldwide.

title: Maritime Capabilities Replacement Programme (MCRP) Intelligent Client Function

description:
In support of the Home Office Maritime Capabilities Replacement Programme (MCRP), the Authority is exploring the procurement of an Intelligent Client Function (ICF). The ICF would provide technical oversight of the shipbuild programme through a forward deployed ‘waterfront’ capability at the shipyard(s).
As part of the initial market engagement exercise, Border Force is looking to engage with interested suppliers to better inform a future procurement with respect to capacity, capability, costings and timelines.
Please see section 11.7 for additional detail on the procurement and how to participate. Additional information: The Authority acting through Border Force (BF) is conducting a review of its maritime capabilities with potential for a replacement of the current fleet. The current fleet consists of 5 Cutters and 6 Coastal Patrol Vessels (CPVs). The precise mix of vessels has not yet been agreed and will be informed by Market Engagement.
The new vessels will be required to contribute to Maritime Security through cross Government working (particularly with the MOD/Royal Navy) and provide support to the Military in a National crisis response.
The role of the Intelligent Client Function will be to provide an experienced, visible, and proactive presence at the Shipyard(s) acting as the local representative of the Programme team, to monitor and manage successful delivery of the shipbuild programme to quality, schedule, and cost.  This will include, but not be exclusive to. examining, reporting and facilitating the resolution of construction and quality issues, ensuring that all work is carried out in accordance with the contract and with the construction drawings, and where requested supervise the testing of the vessel and all her machinery and equipment during construction, commissioning, and acceptance.
Whilst the Home Office is labelling this requirement as an Intelligent Client Function, please note similar services are often referred to as ‘‘Technical Support Service’, ‘Buyer’s Representative’ or ’Client Friend’.
Noting the additional capabilities required and associated security sensitivities, the ICF will be procured via the Defence and Security Public Contracts Regulations 2011 (as amended) or as a defence and security contract under the Procurement Act 2023 if a tender notice is issued after its commencement (28 October 2024). It is expected that UK, British Overseas Territories and Crown Dependencies suppliers will be allowed to bid for this opportunity.
Suppliers who are interested in participating in our market engagement are requested to submit their expression of interest by e-mailing bfvesselsteam@homeoffice.gov.uk by 17:00 (UK) on 26th July 2024 (subject to change). Please ensure that the subject field states “9482 – MCRP Intelligent Client Function - MSQ)”.
Following receipt of expressions of interest, suppliers will be invited to a virtual supplier briefing Industry Day event which is expected to take place on the week commencing 29th July 2024 (subject to change).

Why this programme
Breakthroughs in AI are transforming robotic abilities, but compared to staggering advances in computation, the development of robot bodies has stalled in recent decades. Today, robots cannot achieve the flexibility, speed and precision of human manipulation, rendering them useless for many of the difficult or dangerous tasks where we need them most.The need to improve robot dexterity comes at a critical time. The proportion of the world's population aged 65+ is set to triple by 2100, while labour deficits for physically demanding work are set to increase.Robots have the potential to ease these labour shortages and boost prosperity - advanced robotics with dexterous manipulation could add an estimated 4% to global productivity - but to do so we must close the gap between what robots and humans can handle.
What we're shooting for
Just as biological bodies and nervous systems evolved together, this programme will aim to exploit advanced simulation to learn the optimal design for a robot body at the same time as optimal control. Our goal: to release the bottlenecks in robotic dexterity, demonstrating a paradigm-shift in robotic abilities and creating vastly more capable and useful machines.

Would the bidder have passed the checks if prior year accounts had been used?
Were any of the poor appraisal outcomes "marginal"?
Does the bidder operate in a market which, traditionally, requires lower liquidity or higher debt finance?
Does the bidder have sufficient reserves to sustain losses for a number of years?
Does the bidder have a healthy cashflow?
Is the bidder profitable enough to finance the interest on its debt?
Is most of the bidder's debt owed to group companies?
Is the bidder's debt due to be repaid over a number of years, and affordable?
Have the bidder's results been adversely affected by "one off costs" and / or "one off accounting treatments"?
Do the bidder's auditors (where applicable) consider it to be a "going concern"?
Will the bidder provide a Parent Company Guarantee?
Is the bidder the single supplier/source of the Goods/Works/Services in the marketplace?

title: Heritage Collections Decontamination Services

description: Museum services and preservation services of historical sites and buildings

procurementMethodRationale: The Heritage Collections in the Palace of Westminster are comprised of a significant number of historic furniture items which are historically, culturally, and intrinsically valuable as public assets under the custodianship of both Houses. As part of the management and care of these working collections, and to mitigate risk of damage, it is necessary to heat-treat these upholstered furniture items before placing in storage to ensure the cessation and eradication of insect activity, whilst maintaining the safe preservation and care of the object itself. There is no alternative treatment suitable for these heritage items. Integrated Contamination Management (ICM), previously known as Thermolignum, are an experienced, respected company, who undertake humidity regulated warm air treatment of historic and culturally important objects.  Their specialist facility in West London has the capacity to process a minimum of 1,300 objects of varying sizes and complexity in a specialist facility in West London, via a rolling programme of 86 days. ICM are the only economic operator who can provide the necessary heat-treatment required by the Authority to protect these heritage items. This contract is therefore being awarded via the negotiated procedure without prior publication because, for technical reasons (as set out above), the services can only be supplied by ICM (Reg 32(2)(b)(ii)).

- This is a Provider Selection Regime (PSR) intention to award. 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.
- A Standstill Period is now in force pursuant to Regulations 12 and 14(3) of the PSR Regulations 2023; this period will end at midnight on 22 July 2024 and NHS North West London ICB will not enter into a contract pursuant to the award to the provider under direct award process C before this date.

- The relevant authority's governance/decision-making panel are making the award decision
- The relevant authority has taken into account the 5 Key Criteria and applied the basic selection criteria. The rationale for the relative importance of the Key Criteria is to ensure service continuity will be maintained for this group of patients through a service which is clinically effective, safe and timely. Enhanced patient experience as patients would not be moved around to yet another provider within 12 month period. The rationale for choosing the provider is that there is confidence that the provider is likely to satisfy future performance against the new contract at a cost effective price against the Key Criteria (service model, clinical governance, service innovation, monitoring the quality of the service provision, value, reduce health inequalities, improving access, service sustainability, social value and good practices identified).
- There are no declared or potential conflicts of interest of individuals making the decision
