The new contract will commence on 1 November 2025 with an initial 10-year contract term and the potential for an extension of up to 5 years subject to mutual agreement.
Arrangements will be made for all bidders (including technical colleagues) who wish to attend site visits to the individual leisure sites as they prepare for their bid development.  Currently the thinking is to provide bidders with one opportunity to visit the sites as a group during the SQ stage and then shortlisted bidders will be given two opportunities to visit the sites on an individual basis during the ISIT stage.
The tender procedure selected for this procurement exercise will follow the 'Competitive Procedure with Negotiation' procurement exercise in accordance with Regulation 29 of the Public Contract Regulations. (PCR2015). TUPE regulations will apply to this procurement, to enable bidders to understand the detail of the overall TUPE requirement will be shared during the SQ stage.
Stage one of this process comprises a 'Supplier Questionnaire' (SQ) designed as an initial assessment tool to identify and shortlist suitable potential candidates.
Stage two will be the Invitation to Submit Initial Tenders (ISIT), involving those organisations identified and selected from stage one. Full details of the service requirements, specification, TUPE, and Contract will be published in the ISIT.  GBC reserves the right to select an operator or reduce the shortlist at ISIT stage and reserves the right not to negotiate.
Stage three will be the Invitation to Submit Final Tenders (ISFT) for those bidders successful at ISIT stage. It will consist of negotiation meetings based around a small number of workstreams including, service delivery, commercials, contract and TUPE to explore with bidders their solution followed by the opportunity for bidders to submit a Final Tender Submission.

Medical simulator trainers are used across Oxford Brookes School of Nursing and Midwifery courses to facilitate training, mentoring and the continued professional development of student nurses.  The contracting authority has identified a need to acquire additional deliveries of equipment from its original supplier in order to ensure its compatibility therewith. A change of supplier would oblige the contracting authority to replace medical simulator trainers with different technical characteristics to existing. This would result in additional significant cost, incompatibility and disproportionate technical difficulties in the continued operation and maintenance.
These are the only products and consumables compatible with the existing Limbs and Things medical simulator trainers and therefore there is no competition for this contract until the end of life of the existing kit. Additional information: Limbs and Things is the only supplier that offers realism and clinical accuracy with veins dispensing blood and other authentic procedures for the existing small equipment for medical and nursing
use. The consumables, such as the faux blood are specific to Limbs and Things existing equipment therefore there is no competition for this contract.

It is anticipated that the project will be procured under the Competitive Flexible Procedure under the Procurement Act 2023. The process will be developed so that it follows a structure similar to the current Competitive Dialogue Procedure with the process being initiated from February 2025. Additional information: Wirral Council are undertaking this preliminary market engagement to consult with potential Partners to inform a delivery strategy. This will not be defined as negotiation and any future tender process will remain a competitive process.
The preliminary market engagement is being carried out under the provisions of Regulations 40 and 41 of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (SI 2015/102).
Prior to formally launching the procurement process, we would like to invite interested parties who may wish to tender to attend an online project information session on the morning of 26 November 2024 to find out more about this opportunity and ask questions. If you wish to attend this session, please respond via the Chest portal https://procontract.due north.com – Project Ref: DN747924 confirming your desire to attend together with providing the information requested in Appendix 1 of the published Preliminary Market Engagement Information Pack, no later than 18 November 12 Noon.

description: District heating

title: Birkenhead Heat Network - Preliminary Market Engagement

description:
The project comprises development of a new heat network serving a mix of buildings including new build residential, existing residential, new build commercial and existing commercial. The project forms an integral part of Birkenhead 2040 Regeneration Framework; one of the biggest brownfield redevelopment sites in the UK. This regeneration of Birkenhead will take place across nine areas providing 21,000 new homes and almost 1,000,000m2 square metres of employment space over the next 20 years.
Wirral Council will be procuring a private sector partner to develop a heat network in Birkenhead on a concession basis whereby the private sector partner is expected to take most risk regarding the design, build, finance, operation and maintenance of the network. As network operator the private sector partner will be required to connect and supply heat to specified controlled buildings.
The area to be served by the BHN has been identified as a ‘priority district heating zone’ in Wirral’s Local Plan. It will make a significant contribution to reducing the carbon impact of new / existing development in the Borough and provide opportunities to residents and businesses for lower cost heating. The project is well-aligned with regional policy objectives and initiatives. It also fits into the Government’s introduction of ‘heat network zoning’, which, through implementation, will mandate certain types of buildings in identified urban areas such as Birkenhead to connect to district heating within a prescribed timeframe. It is envisaged that, once HN zoning is in place, BHN could benefit from zoning ‘incumbency’ rules – meaning that nearby eligible buildings will be mandated to connect, further securing demand.
The network is intended to supply heat to:
•	New Build Residential buildings
•	Existing Residential buildings
•	New Build Commercial buildings
•	Existing Commercial buildings
The project will be delivered through Wirral Council procuring an ESCo. The Council and private sector partner will be shareholders in the ESCo albeit that the Council's shareholding will be limited to a "Golden Share". The Council will not be investing in the project, the Golden Share will simply allow the Council to exercise control in relation to a limited number of reserved matters including carbon intensity, reporting and tariffs. It is anticipated that there will be a concession agreement between the Council and the ESCo which will provide the ESCo with the right to design, install, operate and maintain the network. As part of the concession agreement, the ESCo will take most of the risk and benefits from the building and running of the network. The ESCo will be required to source ALL capital funding for the project. Potential private sector partners will be required to set out their funding plan and the robustness and deliverability of this funding plan will be an important bidder evaluation measure.
The revenue derived over the 40 years of the network is estimated to be in the region of £200m - £250m. This includes all phases and connected buildings in the core scheme and allowing for further expansion with the wider geographic area.

name: Great Western Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust

description:
Great Western Hospital NHS Foundation Trust (GWH) is an integrated provider which provides acute hospital services to patients from across Swindon and Wiltshire at the Great Western Hospital, and community services to adult patients. We also provide Maternity and paediatric services, both acute and in the community. The Trust has a budget of approximately £475m and employs around 5,600 staff. In 2023-24 there were 127,814 emergency and urgent attendances at the hospital, 277,678 community contacts, and 15,849 operations were carried out.

GWH plays an important role in the training and education of medical, nursing and Allied Health Professional students. Our ‘Improving Together’ approach to continuous service improvement is now widely used across the Trust and is bringing multi-disciplinary teams together to promote innovation and deliver sustainable change.

Our Theatre services constitute 15 theatres on the 1st floor, with an obstetric theatre and treatment room on the 2nd floor. The Sterile Services Department (SSD) is co-located with the main theatres and supplies sterile instrumentation across the Trust, and to external customers. SSD also provides a decontamination service to the Endoscopy unit.

GWH employs a material management team within the theatres environment which uses Ingenica Solutions inventory management system.

Our ‘Way Forward’ programme includes the development of a Community Diagnostic Centre in West Swindon, as well as a new build on expansion land next to the main GWH site. This programme includes a new Sterile Services Department, which is to future proof for the organisation and to meet wider ICB needs including opportunities to provide more services to dental and GP practices and community health hubs.
It will also include the development of a Private Patient Facility likely to include additional diagnostic and theatre / treatment room capacity. This programme is being developed in partnership with a commercial partner, yet to be appointed.

The key expectations for the managed service contract are set out below.

1.	To manage the supply chain in relation to all procurement associated with Sterile and, Theatre services. Endoscopy decontamination may be included in this remit pending further discussion was part of the procurement process.
2.	To drive efficiencies across all a range of specialties to deliver cash releasing savings.
3.	To support a long-term capital replacement programme to deliver improved equipment infrastructure over a full capital replacement cycle.
4.	To ensure an effective service across equipment replacement, repair, material management and use of technology is maintained and enhanced by market experts.
5.	To work with operational and clinical teams across the Trust to identify opportunities for further service or cost improvement schemes where aligned with the managed service contract.
6.	To work closely with the ‘Way Forward’ programme in relation to the establishment of a new Sterile Services Department and associated contracting requirements.

It should be noted that GWH also has a PFI arrangement, but the scope of this managed service does not impinge on this contract. Should any conflict be identified in the future, this will be jointly addressed by Managed service provider, the Trust and the PFI contractor.
We have not concluded if these areas will be out of scope of the requirement but dependant on market feedback this may become out of scope prior to any final competition is undertaken.

GWH would like to engage with potential service providers of Clinical Neutral Vendor Managed Services who may be interested in such a
collaboration. Additional information: The purpose of this notice is to generate interest from the market in the delivery of a Theatre Managed Service opportunity at GWH. This document sets out some preliminary questions and GWH would welcome a response from potentially interested parties and the opportunity to discuss in scheduled meetings of one hour anticipated for December 2024 (dates to be confirmed)

Process
Parties who have registered interest in respect of the Prior Information Notice (PIN) are asked to complete the Questionnaire included in Appendix 1 and to return the response via the Atamis link to this PIN by 12 noon on 4th December 2024.
Respondents are asked not to include any promotional or other material when submitting their response to the Questionnaire.
This Questionnaire is associated with a Prior Information Notice (PIN) and as such there is no obligation between the Trust and any party.
GWH expects to conduct any meetings in an informal but focussed manner. Time will be used to ensure productive dialogue and debate.
At this point in the process, potentially interested parties are asked not to approach GWH staff to discuss this potential opportunity. If there are specific clarifications required on the Trust’s Questionnaire, please contact the Trust’s team via Atamis and if relevant such clarification may be shared with all parties who have responded to the PIN.

Following this market engagement process:
• GWH may decide to embark on a process to procure a solution.
• GWH may decide not to commence such a procurement process.
The Trust asks the market to appreciate that the main reasons for this engagement are to
understand market interest, view of the opportunity and potential commercial arrangements that would be acceptable. Should the Trust pursue a process to procure, it will be issuing contractual terms against which bidders will be assessed. GWH also wish to confirm that
anything discussed during the market engagement process will not have a bearing on the evaluation of parties during any subsequent process.
Confidentiality
Respondents should be aware that, whilst the GWH shall use its reasonable endeavours to hold information submitted as confidential information or commercial information (where such categorisation or marking is indicated by the respondent at the time when such information is submitted to GWH), this shall be subject to GWH’s obligations under law and
may need to be disclosed and published by GWH.

Due to the delays in the procurement of the remediation and advanced works contract this has had a knock-on effect on the Campus appointments. We have previously applied a contract modification to the existing contract but due to the delays we are now in a position where the proposed costs exceed the procurement limit.
In order to maintain project continuity, we are reappointing AtkinsRéalis PPS Limited (formerly Faithful+Gould) for the extension due to the prolongation and the change to the NEC 4 form of contract for the main construction contract which places additional burdens on the project manager role to that originally specified.

Scottish Water's purpose is to support a flourishing Scotland by being trusted to care for the water on which Scotland depends.
We are proud to provide water and wastewater services that are essential to everyday life for households and businesses across Scotland.
We make a critical contribution to Scotland's health, well-being and prosperity, the sustainability of our natural environment, and our country's long-term economic success.
Our purpose is founded on the quality of water supplies and our care for the environment. To do that every day, we must keep building our customers' trust in us as their expectations rise, the climate changes and our assets get older.
We fulfil our purpose by pursuing three strategic ambitions: Service excellence, great value & financial sustainability and beyond net zero emissions.  These ambitions are interconnected - success depends on us achieving all three, not one or the other and to do this, we need to do things differently.
As we work towards the delivery of our strategic ambitions, Scottish Water is planning a nationwide rollout of smart metering for approximately 136,000 business customers from 2025-2031, subject to detailed planning and funding approval. This initiative follows a successful pilot of smart metering technologies for approximately 3,000 business customers in Inverness and Orkney.
To achieve this, Scottish Water aims to develop a comprehensive range of technical and operational capabilities that include managing the supply, installation, and maintenance of water meters, implementation of communication networks, and provision of data services (e.g. ingestion, aggregation, storage, analysis, and insight generation) to support robust smart metering infrastructure.
Scottish Water's requirements may be procured as combined or separate lots. We welcome responses from suppliers who can offer some of or all these capabilities. We are particularly interested in innovative and collaborative approaches that could be deployed across the supply chain.
The framework(s) will be awarded in 2025, with a planned installation start date of Autumn 2025 and we invite potential suppliers to share their ideas, capabilities, and proposed approaches.
