Alongside, most profitable sales of newspapers, which include local titles like ‘Echo’, ‘Penarth Times’ and ‘Barry & District News’, the hospital located shops offer weeklies, magazines and Sunday newspapers.
Looking at the sales of all newspapers and magazines, sales of newspapers is the most profitable as generates 58% of profit, with weeklies accounting for 20%, magazines for 14% and Sunday newspapers for 8% of the entire sales. The main reason for the high profit on newspapers is due to the high volume being sold in comparison to the other products like magazines which have higher mark ups but the

title: Building Refurbishment and Upgrade Framework (uplift)

description:
In 2019/20 a framework was established for Cardiff and Vale University Health Board (CAV) to manage regular requests for both reactive and planned building work. Works under the framework include but are not limited to: Demolition/Alteration/Renovation, Masonry, Structural/Carcassing Metal/Timber, Linings/Sheathing/Dry Partitioning, Windows/Doors/Stairs, Furniture/Equipment, Building Fabric Sundries (Fire stopping), Disposal Systems (Above Ground Foul Drainage Systems), Building Fabric Reference Specifications, Electrical, Mechanical, Specialist i.e., Kitchen etc.
The recovery from the impact of Covid-19 has led to an extensive and unexpected utilization of the framework. Swift delivery of several large and high-value projects.
In essence, the Health Board is facing a situation where the demand for projects under the local Building Framework has surpassed expectations, driven by the impact of COVID-19 recovery efforts, Major Capital schemes, and emergency schemes. This surge in demand has depleted available funds, necessitating an increase in the contract value to ensure the award and completion of these schemes before the end of the financial year, all while adhering to the constraints of the public contract regulations.
The increase would be for a 10.81 percent from the current framework value, which is equivalent to 3.24 Million excluding VAT.

Following the publication of a previous PIN 2023/S 000-013633 12 May 2023 which was published to establish interest within the market and to help inform us on a number of strategic decisions in relation to this procurement, we have now determined our strategy and this new second PIN is published to advise of the planned future procurement.  We have determined that a Design and Build, 'Open Procedure' Single Stage Tender offers the quickest route to completion whilst still meeting competition.
It is anticipated that the F02: Contract Notice will be published on 25 April 2024 with the ITT (Invitation to Tender) Package being upload on to a Contracts Finder Notice published the same day. We will reference the Contracts Finder notice in the Find a Tender Service F02: Contract Notice and the ITT package will also be available on demand.

title: The Centre for Veterinary Vaccine Innovation and Manufacturing (CVIM)

description:
A joint initiative between the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC), part of UK Research and Innovation (UKRI), the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation will see the creation of a new centre at The Pirbright Institute designed to accelerate the development of animal vaccines to combat emerging and urgent infectious diseases.
The consequences of livestock disease can be catastrophic. As well as posing a very real risk to global food security and international trade, livestock disease also presents a significant threat to global human health due to its pandemic potential.
While the UK remains a world-leader in the early-stage development of vaccines for both human and veterinary medicine, globally we need to strengthen our collective capacity to translate scientific discoveries into solutions for the most challenging veterinary infectious diseases.
The new Centre for Veterinary Vaccine Innovation and Manufacturing (CVIM) will bridge the gaps between research and expertise in process development and manufacturing while strengthening the UK's own emergency response capacity and capability. It will bring about tangible health and economic benefits by focusing on diseases prevalent in low- and middle-income countries.

Delivery will be designed to support both antenatal service delivery, and mandatory checks up to and including the age of 2.

description: Health and social work services

procurementMethodRationale:
Direct award process A must be used when all of the following apply:
•	there is an existing provider of the health care services to which the proposed contracting arrangements relate
•	the relevant authority is satisfied that the health care services to which the proposed contracting arrangements relate can only be provided by the existing provider (or group of providers) due to the nature of the health care services
The Start for Life Workforce Pilot exists as an enhancement of the current Health Visitor led Start For Life offering.  The pilot  seeks to broaden the workforce, supplementing the existing provision with a new Band 3 and Band 4 workforce, and Band 7 Clinical Management staff.  These staff will continue to work within the existing Start For Life framework.  Cambridge Community Services (CCS)  are the existing and only provider of such services in Norfolk and as such are already responsible for delivering within the provision to which the Workforce Pilot relates.
Contractually, CCS are already responsible for the delivery, including the recruitment of the Health Visitor resources and there are no other providers of Health Visiting services in Norfolk. The monies from central government have clear definition requirements that the Workforce Pilot will only be able to target specific family and child cohorts and success criteria for the Pilot, requires data sets spanning multiple, overlapping service providers within the same service.

Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Screening (AAA) Programme - Market Engagement Event.
NHS England London, Public Health Screening team, are currently preparing for the undertaking of the AAA procurement in 2024. Commissioners are inviting all interested organisations to a Market Engagement Event which will take place virtually via MS Teams on Thursday 07th March 2024. A maximum of 2 representatives are invited to attend on behalf of each organisation.
The aim of AAA Screening Programme is to reduce deaths from ruptured aneurysms through early, accurate detection via ultrasound scan, monitoring and management of men with screen detected aneurysms, and appropriate referral and progress tracking of referrals to accredited vascular services for high quality diagnostic and treatment services. Delivery of the programme includes successful identification and invitation to screening of all men eligible for NHS care registered with a GP within the commissioned screening programme boundaries in the year they turn 65. It also includes testing, surveillance, diagnose, referral to treatment/intervention and monitoring of outcomes.
Currently, in London there are two programmes:
North London Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Screening Programme (NLAAASP) provides screening across three ICBs in NWL, NCL and NEL including 21 Local Authorities; and
South London Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Screening Programme (SLAAASP) provides AAA screening across SWL and SEL ICBs and 12 local authorities, plus parts of Surrey.
In total, both programmes are responsible for an eligible population of 46500 men. The service specifications, contract values and contract durations stipulated are all in draft and are being developed.
In relation to the financial model, the Authority is proposing an Activity-based model with the following tariff (indicative figure at this stage): Routine/ Surveillance screening - £60 per screen.

Interested tenderers are required to provide response to the below questions and submit via email to LBBtender@arkconsultancy.co.uk  as part of the councils on-going soft market testing. The deadline to submit your response is 5pm Monday 12th February 2024.
Question 1: Can you confirm that you would in principle be willing to utilise the Subcontractor Framework in the first instance for your supply chain requirements. What risks and considerations do you identify from
a)	Using the Brent Supply Chain for all your subcontract work including responsive & void repairs in a Price Per Property (PPP)/ Price Per Void (PPV) context
b)	Using the Brent Supply Chain for Exclusions to the PPP/PPV and Planned Works only
c)	Any specific suggestions on how to ensure that the Subcontractor Framework works better for all
in relation to:
•	Pricing each workstream
•	Onboarding processes
•	Calling off the subcontractors
•	Managing performance
•	Any other areas
Question 2: What works do you typically self-deliver through your own directly employed workforce and which do you normally subcontract?
Question 3: We are proposing a Price Per Property (PPP) and Price Per Void (PPV) model with set Exclusions which would be payable on schedules of rates. For planned works we are considering a Cost Plus model, with tendered Preliminaries, Overheads and Profit.
Do you have any views or advice on how the commercial model should be structured to get the best value for money responses from the market, given your experience of working with similar organisations? This should include:
•	how this would relate to the use of the Subcontractor Framework, and how this could operate with both the fixed cost and variable cost/ Exclusion elements.
•	Typical items that may be Exclusions from PPP and PPV
•	Separation of Preliminary Costs from PPV
Question 4: Is there a minimum annual contract value that you would be interested in? And what is your view of the optimum contact size/value, given the size/nature of the Council’s housing stock? Do you have any thoughts on the split by geographical area and workstream?
Question 5: What would be the minimum and optimal contract length for a contract of this type? Would the inclusion of a no-fault break with sufficient notice clause at any point influence your decision to bid and/or your pricing structure for the contract?
Question 6: We are proposing to use the JCT Measured Term Contract. To what extent do you think this would provide an appropriate form of contract? Do you have any views/advice on how to use this form of contract to best effect?
Question 7: What steps would you like to see taken to minimise risk (and risk pricing) to achieve an equitable contractual relationship?
Question 8: Do you have any other suggestions on how we should shape the requirement? Is there any ‘good practice’ or any recent positive experience of tender opportunities that you are able to share so that we can try to make sure our procurement process delivers the best results/experience for the Council and its customers and for bidders?

title: CONTRACTS FOR RESPONSIVE, VOID AND PLANNED MAINTENANCE- INITIAL MARKET ENGAGEMENT

description:
Brent Council manages circa 9,000 rented homes and 4,000 leased homes across the Borough. It currently delivers its responsive repairs, voids and planned maintenance through a single Borough-wide contract which has been in place since 2014 and which is currently due to expire at the end of September 2024.
New arrangements will therefore need to be procured. Brent wishes to use the new contracts to drive excellence in customer service and the quality of homes and is considering the following approach:
•	Separation of the stock into two geographical contract areas
•	Within each area, separate contracts for:
•	Responsive repairs
•	Void repairs
•	Planned maintenance (internal component replacements such as kitchens and bathrooms, internal communal works, external planned works, major projects including tower block refurbishment, electrical safety and fire safety works)
The estimated annual value of the works in total across both areas and all workstreams (responsive, voids and planned) is likely to be initially circa £10 - £15million, potentially rising to circa £20 to £25million. It should be noted that this will be lower in the first 2-3 years of the contract as the planned programme includes major refurbishment works that have already been procured separately.
Brent is considering requiring bidders to bid for all 3 elements of work within each geographical area, however separate contracts would be issued for each workstream. Bidders will still be able to submit tenders for both areas however Brent may not award more than one geographical area to a single contractor (the Invitation to Tender will set out the process). Successful bidders may be awarded one or more lots based on the most economically advantageous tender for each lot.
In addition, Brent is undertaking a separate procurement for a Subcontractors Framework, which it is intended will encourage participation of local SMEs and will provide an available local supply chain with sustainable rates and prompt payment requirements. This will be in place for the start of this main Responsive, Void and Planned Maintenance contracts although not prior to the procurement process. The successful contractors will be expected to use the councils Subcontractor (local supplier)  framework for their supply chain requirements.
Brent is keen to understand the level of interest from contractors in bidding for these proposed Contracts for responsive repairs, voids and planned maintenance and to shape the offer to secure maximum interest from the market. As a result, the council is proposing to have a market engagement event on the 14th of February 2024 via teams (Details of the teams invite will be sent on a later date). Please send your contact details including email details for the teams invite to LBBtender@arkconsultancy.co.uk confirming your interest in attending this engagement.
We would be grateful if you would provide response to questions in section II.2.4 (Description of the procurement) and your responses submitted via email to LBBtender@arkconsultancy.co.uk no later than 5pm on Monday 12th February 2024. All queries regarding this notice to go to same email address. Your response should include how you would work with the proposed Subcontractor Framework, setting out your requirements and general principles

MCHFT is in the initial stages of a new project to construct a new hospital, which will replace the existing Leighton Hospital which is affected by Reinforced Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (RAAC) throughout circa 80.00% of its buildings. The vision for the project is to design and build a new state of the art hospital that will play a vital role at the heart of the community, placing digital innovation at the forefront of health services designed to tackle inequalities and meet the needs of a growing and ageing population. The ambition is that this project will transform the quality of healthcare for the people of Cheshire.

At the centre of the programme will be the “hospital 2.0” concept, a vision for how hospital schemes can be delivered with greater efficiency and reduced cost. An integrated systems approach will provide “optimised, standardised and repeatable solutions for scheme development, design, construction, and operation. This approach will take a reference design model developed for low rise projects and ask design teams to apply those principles through a series of pre-agreed gateways and steps. This approach is still in development at a national level, but MCHFT will be adopting H2.0’s core outputs in their generative phases.

Mid Cheshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (MCHFT) issued an Invitation to Tender ("ITT") in connection with the competitive procurement of Cost Manager Services for the New Leighton Hospital.

The purpose of this procurement exercise was to appoint a Cost Manager to provide services covering RIBA Stages 2 to 3. The appointment is through to completion of the Outline Business Case which is currently targeted as July 2025.

The project is currently concluding RIBA Stage 1 and is due to commence RIBA Stage 2 in June 2024. The appointed Cost Manager is expected to commence services in May 2024.

The Authority reserves the right to extend the contract for the appointment of the Cost Manager beyond RIBA stage 3 (including Outline Business Case delivery) without the need for a further procurement exercise. In exercising its discretion to extend, the Authority will consider the successful bidder’s performance up to the point it is considering any extension and whether any benefit to the overall programme to extending with the current supplier outweighs any potential benefit in carrying out a further procurement exercise.

Bidders were to note that the design may reach a fully complete RIBA stage 3 by the end of the Outline Business Case and therefore fees were to be based on this.

The Authority elected to follow the Open Procedure for this procurement exercise. For the avoidance of doubt, the form of the tender was conducted in accordance with the EC Treaty based principles of, inter alia, transparency, equal treatment and non-discrimination. Any organisation could have responded to the advertised Contract Notices, requested/downloaded the procurement documents, and submitted a tender. All tenders were evaluated in line with the methodology and criteria set out in the procurement documents.

This notice applies to Mid Cheshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust only and the Authority made use of the ATAMIS e-tendering Portal which can be found at https://health-family.force.com/s/Welcome ("the e-sourcing Portal").

The provision of Fixed Wing Aircraft MRO services (including Continuing Airworthiness Management and Spare Parts) for the National Police Air Service (which prior to its unexpected early closure, was operated out of Doncaster Sheffield Airport).
A direct award of a two-year contract with the incumbent Supplier (utilising the remaining engineers from the current service provision) for a contract running from 01/04/2024. This will allow the Authority to undertake a full and proper procurement exercise to mitigate the risks highlighted below. A tender process and market engagement will begin in 2024 with the aim of establishing a new MRO contract from April 2026 onwards.

title: National Police Air Services Fixed Wing MRO Services.

description: Repair and maintenance services of aircraft

procurementMethodDetails: Negotiated without publication of a contract notice

procurementMethodRationale:
This award is being made 'for reasons of extreme urgency brought about by events unforeseeable by the contracting authority' under  PCR2015 32(2)(c).
The National Police Air Service (NPAS), housed and maintained their fixed wing fleet at Doncaster Sheffield Airport (DSA).  The MRO contract for the fixed wing fleet, previously awarded to Gama expires 31st March 2024.
In 2022, preparations began on a tender process aimed at establishing a new MRO provision from April 2024.
Following the unexpected closure of DSA by the airport's operator in November 2022, urgent reactive activity established a temporary solution which was to locate two of the aircraft at Leeds Bradford Airport (LBA), where limited maintenance could be performed by the Supplier's personnel.  The remainder of the aircraft were to be relocated at the Suppliers base of operations at Bournemouth Airport (BOH), where the main 'base' maintenance activity would also be undertaken.
This was not a sustainable solution and a long-term option was needed.  East Midlands Airport (EMA) was identified, and negotiations began early in 2023 to secure a lease for the site.
 The aim was to have EMA occupied and operational by May 2023.  This did not happen due to protracted negotiations on the terms of the lease.  The lease was concluded in late 2023, and maintenance work then commenced to get the EMA site operationally ready for occupation.
The building work is still underway in January 2024.  Hopefully the CAA will be able to visit the NPAS EMA site in February 2024 to assess the site and to approve it as a line or base station for MRO operations.
NPAS has had no permanent base which was operationally ready for its fixed wing fleet during the whole of 2023.
NPAS were therefore unable to start a tender process without a confirmed base for the MRO contract for its fixed wing fleet.
The aircraft would have soon become operationally non-viable due to the lack of engineers and maintenance facilities, therefore preventing NPAS from being able to deliver serviceable aircraft, long before the tender would have been completed.  In short, the fixed wing fleet would have been grounded within a few months of starting a tender.
Without the certainty of EMA becoming a permanent site neither the incumbent Supplier nor a prospective bidder would have been able to provide firm proposals under a tender process.  Conversely it would have been difficult for NPAS to have made an appropriate evaluation and selection in case EMA did not eventually become an NPAS base.
Existing nor prospective suppliers would have been able to commence a recruitment process, nor proceed with having engineering staff appropriately type rated.
The Civil Aviation Authority would also have been unable to complete any approvals process for any provider without a confirmed location.
The practical impact would have been a reduction of the overall NPAS fleet size by almost 20% as the fixed wing fleet would have had to have been grounded:
This would have had a major impact upon the ability to support UK policing operations.  This presented a credible risk of danger to life for the public and a reduction in crime prevention and detection.  It was predicted that the grounding of the fixed wing aircraft could have been at least 9 to 12 months, given that the EMA site is still undergoing building work (to allow it to become operational and approved by the CAA) in January 2024.
The existing contract expires on 31/3/24 and following negotiations an agreement has been reached to direct award a two-year contract with the incumbent Supplier (utilising the remaining engineers from the current service provision) for a contract running from 01/04/2024. This will allow the Authority to undertake a full and proper procurement exercise to mitigate the risks highlighted above.
A tender process and market engagement will begin in 2024 with the aim of establishing a new MRO contract from April 2026 onwards.
