The provider is commissioned to deliver locally enhanced services for the Rotherham population. This contract Award has been made following direct award process B under the Provider Selection Regime.

These contracts are awarded to an existing group of providers. Although we would not restrict the number of providers who deliver these LCS services provided they meet the contract and specification criteria, the primary reason that these services can only be delivered by this group of providers (GP) is because they are required to hold a contract via the GP Framework and deliver the LCS alongside these services; the LCS is designed to enhance the GP Framework contract and not stand alone, therefore, interdependency between the two services is paramount.

The provider is paid on an activity basis based on local prices. The contract award is from 01/04/2024 to 31/03/2025. This is an existing service from an existing provider.

title: Consumables + Servicing for Integra Pipetting Machines

description: Laboratory pipettes and accessories

procurementMethodDetails: Negotiated without publication of a contract notice

procurementMethodRationale:
Based on the information detailed below, the conclusion is that Integra Biosciences Ltd (the Supplier) is the only provider able to supply the required goods and services to APHA.

- The majority of the required specialist consumables contain registered trademarks (including the GRIPTIPS® pipette tips) and they work interchangeably across many of the Supplier's liquid handling solutions, including the Assist Plus, Viaflo and Mini 96 pipette systems.
- Unique features have been identified for the Supplier's equipment, confirming the requirement for bespoke consumables.

description:
Surrey County Council aim to commission a loan management company to deliver our new SME Decarbonisation Loan Programme Pilot.  The pilot will provide loan funding to SMEs to help them to decarbonise by installing measures including heating, lighting, and insulation improvements.
The County Council has delivered many successful grant programmes for businesses.  This loan programme is a new and innovative approach that will help inform our future strategy to support businesses to decarbonise.  Our Greener Futures Finance Strategy was approved by our Cabinet in 2023 and sets out innovative finance measures, including loans, to help deliver our decarbonisation targets.  The County Council has secured an initial capital loan fund allocation of £200k for year 1 (ending 31 March 2025).  We anticipate that this will fund circa 20 SME businesses up to a maximum loan of £15k per business to install decarbonisation measures.  Businesses would need to provide 50% match funding towards their investment and loans would be repaid over a period of up to 3 years.
We have recently delivered the successful LoCASE grant programme in Surrey, which funded SME businesses with similar decarbonisation measures.  This has demonstrated a demand from businesses to decarbonise, the carbon savings and energy savings that it can provide to businesses.
We will work with you to bring our skills in marketing funding programmes for businesses and  conducting decarbonisation needs assessments to reach our network of the SME businesses.
There is a potential for an additional £400k capital funding, should this year 1 pilot be a success and approval secured from our Capital Programme Panel.

Our ambition is to provide a county-wide pre-employment / study programme, based in the community, which provides support and opportunities for West Sussex’s most vulnerable young people to maximise their potentials.

Programmes will engage young people aged 16-19 and up to 25 if they have an Education and Health Care Plan, who are often living in challenging and complex circumstances, may be NEET or at risk of being NEET, have had negative previous education experiences and are a long way away from being able to move into more formal FE college provision, apprenticeships or work.

Delivery partners will be required to provide accessible and supportive ‘routeways’ for young people into, through and onward from the programme.

Core programme requirements include:

Work placements

English (Functional Skills)

Maths (Functional Skills)

Employability Skills

Group activities, personal development and tutorials.

title: Adult Skills

description:
The Adult Skills curriculum focusses on providing individuals with ‘routeways to success’, primarily into employment / more sustainable employment, but also to further learning as part of an individual’s progression.

It includes:

support for 4 legal entitlements for eligible adult learners as set out in the Apprenticeships, Skills and Children Learning Act 2009, and enables eligible learners to be fully funded for the following qualifications:

English and maths up to and including level 2 for individuals aged 19 and over who have not previously achieved a GCSE grade A* to C or grade 4 or higher, and/or have been assessed as having an existing skill level lower than grade 4 (even if they have previously achieved a GCSE or equivalent qualification in English or maths)

first full qualification at level 2 for individuals aged 19 to 23, and/or

first full qualification at level 3 for individuals aged 19 to 23

Essential Digital Skills qualifications (EDSQs) or Digital Functional Skills qualifications (DFSQs), up to and including level 1, for individuals aged 19 and over, who have digital skills assessed at below level 1

our “Routes into…” programme which focusses on a range of employment sectors / vocations which align to those identified in the Local Skills Improvement Plan (LSIP), by West Sussex Department of Work and Pensions and Jobcentre Plus colleagues and WSCC colleagues.

Adult Skills is primarily focussed on regulated qualifications but may include specific non-regulated provision, particularly English, Maths, English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) and Essential Digital Skills for individuals who:

are assessed as requiring additional support and development in order to be ready to progress to a qualification or engage with employment,

require independent living skills or engagement in learning which supports them to operate confidently and effectively in life and work.

Adult Skills learning aims must be approved for use by the DfE.

title: Community/Tailored Learning

description:
ommunity / Tailored Learning seeks “to widen participation and transform people’s destinies by supporting progression relevant to personal circumstances”.

This ambition will be realised through high quality, accessible and impactful non-qualification learning programmes which enable individuals to reach their potential through a curriculum offer that supports five inter-related outcomes:

Provision develops the skills, confidence, motivation, and resilience of adults of different ages and backgrounds in order to:

progress towards formal learning or employment and / or

improve their health and well-being, including mental health and / or

develop stronger communities.

Provision engages with and supports the most vulnerable and hard to access residents, whether that be, for example, a result of life circumstances / changes, deprivation, poor prior attainment, ill health, loss of employment etc.

Provision must be responsive to known need(s), be readily accessible ensuring entry points and ‘return to learning’ points for adults (aged 19+).

Community / Tailored Learning funding will be used to commission a wide range of specialist community-based organisations across West Sussex who can demonstrate the knowledge, skills and links in their specialism / geographic location required to deliver a learning programme to adults.

Grants will provide an opportunity for some organisations who have little or no experience of delivering ESFA funded and Ofsted regulated provision, but who demonstrate the attributes to be supported through this programme to do so in the future.

‘Tailored Learning’ is included in Adult skills fund: funding rules for 2024 to 2025 - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)

title: Family Learning and Parenting

description:
Family Learning provides a unique range of opportunities for families, to learn together to raise skills across generations. The learning environment is relaxed and ‘non-threatening’, yet purposeful. Provision is usually delivered in partnership, for example with schools, children and family centres and libraries.

Family Learning and Parenting provision supports families (in the widest sense: children, parents, carers, grandparents) through programmes which:

increase parents’ involvement in their children’s learning,

improve family health and wellbeing,

increase social and community engagement,

raise aspirations and create positive attitudes to learning,

support transitions (e.g. school phases),

improve confidence and employability skills for adults,

improve young people’s development and attainment.

Partners maybe sought to deliver programmes which complement existing Adult Learning provision.

title: Level 3 Free Courses for Jobs

description:
The Free Courses For Jobs (FCFJ) programme supports adults aged 19-23 who are unemployed or below the Government defined earnings threshold in achieving their first full level 3 qualification.

The qualifications must support the development of new skills for learners and improve their prospects in the West Sussex labour market.

Funded level 3 FCFJ qualifications are available via the DfE list of qualifications approved for funding.

title: Skills Bootcamps

description:
The Department for Education (DfE) definition of Skills Bootcamps is: "Skills Bootcamps are free, flexible courses of up to 16 weeks, giving people the chance to build sector-specific skills with an offer of a job interview at the end, giving learners direct line of sight into a job. Training is designed and delivered in partnership with employers to ensure they deliver the skills needed.

Skills Bootcamps are available across a range of sectors and help people develop priority skills that are in demand at both local and national level, typically at levels 3 to 5 or equivalent (medium to higher level technical skills) and level 2 in some sectors (e.g. green construction, HGV drivers).

Skills Bootcamp training must either be accredited, aligned to occupational standards managed by the Institute for Apprenticeship & Technical Education (IFATE) or utilise a recognised standard for representing attainment (e.g. Recognising and Recording Progress and Achievement (RARPA).”

Skills Bootcamps funding and performance management - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)

In West Sussex, Skills Bootcamps will be aligned to the priorities identified in the Local Skill Improvement Plan (LSIP) and to meet the specific needs and demands of employers based in the county and travel to earn / learn area.

title: Skills for Life and Work Projects

description:
This lot will enable WSCC to respond to appropriate national, regional and / or local projects, campaigns or initiatives in a timely and responsive manner for the benefit of West Sussex residents, businesses and support services.

Programmes are anticipated to have strong ‘skills for life and work’ themes and be prioritised to support those living in hardship, who are vulnerable and hard to access, whether that be, for example, a result of life circumstances / changes, deprivation, poor prior attainment, ill health, loss of employment etc.

‘Multiply’, funded by the Government through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund 2022-23 to 2024-25, is an example of the type of programme which would be administered through this lot.
