procurementMethodDetails: Negotiated without publication of a contract notice

procurementMethodRationale:
The Air Commodities team, part of the Ministry of Defence, intends to enter into a contract with Fumecare Ltd (Fumecare) for the modification and future maintenance of the Fume Extraction Cabinet SP130 (7359-99-8394223 GSE Type Code WAX) (Cabinet). The contract will be an initial 5 years with 4 additional option years to be taken in 1 year increments at the Authorities discretion and have a value of approximately £551,000 (Ex VAT).
In accordance with the provisions of The Public Procurement (Amendment etc.) (EU Exit) Regulations 2020 SI No. 2020/1319, this procurement falls to be regulated under the provisions of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 as amended (in particular by SI 2020/1319).  Prior publication of a contract notice in the Official Journal of the European Union is no longer appropriate. It is considered that the award of the contract without prior publication of a contract notice in the UK e-notification service (as required by the relevant legislation) is lawful in accordance with regulation 32(2)(b)(ii) of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 because competition is absent for technical reasons.

This is because Fumecare is the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) of the Cabinet and has supported it since it was introduced into service in 1997. Only the OEM has the drawings, information, technical expertise, and tools necessary to support this critically important piece of safety equipment which is used to remove toxic dust, fumes and aerosol vapours when testing aircraft components for early signs of failure such as cracks and metal fatigue. In particular, due to the age of the Cabinet, certain of its key electronic components are now obsolete and only the OEM has the expertise to upgrade them to the required technical and safety standards.

description:
The primary remit of NHS organisations with regard to nurse call systems is the safety of patients. For all premises under its control, it is therefore critical that the Trust’s nurse call systems are effectively serviced and maintained. Whilst it is not a legal requirement to service nurse call systems, it is understood they must be regularly maintained to ensure continued functionality.

Without regular maintenance, the system can fail when needed, risking patients’ lives. In addition, lack of maintenance can result in false alarms, leading to staff becoming desensitised to the system and the associated risk they may ignore it when a real emergency occurs.

The Trust’s objectives are to maintain a high level of reliability and availability of its systems by operating a system of planned preventative maintenance, with response to call outs and call backs/breakdowns maintained at agreed performance levels, whilst ensuring value for money.

	1. The systems currently in situ at the Nottingham City Hospital consist primarily of Static Systems
	2. The systems currently in situ at the queens Medical Centre consist of a mixture of Wandsworth, Ipin and Static Systems

A dedicated mental health care coordinator will oversee the coordination of clinical services across both mental health and substance use sectors. Additionally, personalised budgets will be allocated to individuals to meet their immediate basic needs and support their social and emotional growth, contributing to long-term recovery and well-being. This pilot project represents an innovative approach to supporting individuals with co-occurring conditions, aiming to improve outcomes through more integrated and personalised care.
This is a Provider Selection Regime (PSR) intended approach notice. 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.

Please note that this PIN is issued to inform the market of an upcoming market engagement event and is not a formal PIN marking the start of a procurement procedure. More information about the next steps and forward timeline will be provided at the Market Engagement Event and in future notices. All information shared in this notice and at the event is indicative and subject to full and final approvals by the Department.

The UK Department of Energy Security and Net Zero is planning to procure an independent Evaluation Partner for – the Climate Innovation Pull Facility (CIPF).
In public innovation financing, "pull mechanisms" create incentives for innovators and other actors by creating viable market demand. They seek to reduce viability gaps and induce innovation by signalling demand for solutions to specific problems. Mechanisms often cited include Advanced Market Commitments, Results or Outcomes Based Financing, Prizes/Challenges, innovation bulk procurements, Contracts for Difference, among others. By contrast, much innovation support has to date utilised "push mechanisms" directly subsidising up-front R&D costs.
The CIPF will support the development of 6-10 innovation projects, each worth between £10m and £50m, aligned to Ayrton Fund themes: industrial decarbonisation, sustainable cooling, smart energy systems and storage and clean transport. Further details of Ayrton Fund thematic challenges are set out on https://www.gov.uk/guidance/ayrton-fund
This procurement focuses on the Independent Evaluator which is separate to the procurement for the Facility Manager. The Evaluator will conduct baseline, process, interim, and end-of-term evaluation of the programme’s achievement of its intended impact, as defined by the Theory of Change and corresponding Logframe. At the project level, we anticipate a small number of deep-dive impact evaluations into a selection or combination of projects. The Evaluator will also assess programme preparedness for monitoring, evaluation, and learning (MEL) at a programme and project level, by evaluating and providing feedback on the MEL products and processes the Facility Manager has developed.  The latter may form part of a broader process evaluation conducted to address questions the Authority or Facility Manager may have, e.g., relating to governance, impact, or project selection.

The procurement will be run as an open competitive procedure and will be governed by the Procurement Act 2023.
The Department will be hosting a Market Engagement Event on 15 January 2025 at 11:00 GMT lasting 1-hour, to share early thinking on the evaluator deliverables and procurement procedure, with opportunity for feedback on the planned scope and approach. This is separate to the final market engagement event for the Facility Manager, also in January 2025. Please register to attend the EME here: https://forms.office.com/e/wPEGYAS4kC
Further market engagement sessions for this procurement may be held prior to the release of the contract notice planned for June 2025.
Initial contract value of £2m / 5.5 years with options to extend by £2m and up to 3 additional years.
A draft Scope of Requirements will be uploaded by the Authority to the Jaggaer Opportunity Listing page by 20 December 2024. Please follow this link to the Opportunity Listing: https://beisgroup.ukp.app.jaggaer.com/esop/guest/go/opportunity/detail?opportunityId=59261
Feedback opportunities: After the Market Engagement Event, the Authority will share a link to an online Feedback Questionnaire. This will be an opportunity for suppliers to provide their written views on the specification, procurement procedure and the commercial approach.

Defence Equipment and Support, Communications and Situational Awareness Project Team, part of the UK Ministry of Defence, intends to award a Post Design Services, Spares and Repairs contract to Drumgrange Limited (Drumgrange), for in-service support to its Frequency Standard (Outfit FSF) system, used to deliver precise positioning, frequency and timing to essential communication equipment.
The contract will be for two years and three months, have an estimated value of £750,000 and be placed as an amendment to the MoD’s existing contract with Drumgrange (contract 700007389 (CSA/1110)).

description: IT services: consulting, software development, Internet and support

procurementMethodRationale:
In accordance with Regulation 4 of the Defence and Security Public Contracts (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019 (SI 2019/697) this contract falls to be regulated under the provisions of the Defence and Security Public Contracts Regulations 2011 as amended (in particular by SI 2019/697 and SI 2020/1450). Prior publication of a contract notice in the official Journal of the European Union is no longer appropriate.  It is considered that the award of contract without prior publication of a contract notice in the UK e-notification service (as required by the relevant legislation) is lawful in accordance with regulation 16(1)(a)(ii) of the Defence and Security Public Contracts Regulations 2011 for technical reasons.
This is because Drumgrange is original equipment manufacturer of the Frequency Standard (Outfit FSF) system and has supported it since it came in to service in 1996. It is the only economic operator with the proprietary information, technical know-how, tooling and test equipment needed to meet the requirement and manage obsolescence.
