description:
NHS North East London Integrated Care Board (NEL ICB), hereafter referred to as "The Authority", invites interested individuals and Providers to attend up to two Engagement Events in advance of publication of the NEL 111 procurement.

https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/dca1df9e-d88e-447e-b929-42b1c9d882d8

Background

• NEL ICB has started the discovery phase of designing a new 111 model of care for our residents. Our current 111 Integrated Urgent Care (111 IUC) service contract is due to expire (new service start date to be confirmed)
• Given the changes during and after the Covid-19 pandemic to 111 services, NEL ICB is working to develop a new model that considers other key transformational deliverables across our sector, including the Fuller Review Recommendations and Same Day Access Services.

Engagement Events

The Authority plans to hold two interactive engagement events:

1. An online event via MS Teams on Thursday the 17th of October from 10:00 - 13:00
2. An in-person event on Thursday the 24th of October from 13:00 - 17:00

The Events will provide:
• An overview of the current and proposed service provision.
• Details of the anticipated contract type, length, and particular conditions.
• An overview of the proposed commissioning approach and procurement route.
• Indicative timescales for the procurement.

Registration

Reservations are limited to no more than 3 individuals per organisation.

Details of those to be invited must be sent to the Procurement Lead (kieran.james-paterson@nhs.net) using the registration form by Thursday the 10th of October at 14:00pm.

Further information on both events will then be provided to those who express an interest in attending.

Questionnaire

An engagement questionnaire is also available.

We are reaching out to the market and connected individuals to better understand your views of 111 in general; and to also understand what directly impacts organisational decisions to bid for potential new services.

We are looking for responses to support us in transforming 111 for the future and appreciate your time in completing this survey.

Questionnaire responses submitted will remain confidential and information gathered will be used for the sole purpose of informing the upcoming procurement process.

Questionnaire responses must be submitted to by Thursday the 31st of October at 14:00pm.

title: Nursery Provision of Early Years & Childcare for RAF Wittering and RAF Wyton

description:
The below provides a brief illustration of the current provision and operational delivery of the nursery sites. Please note this is an illustration and detail can be subject to change. There will be scope to work with each station to adapt the operational delivery and outputs of the setting to meet the needs of service families and the station’s statement of requirements.
RAF Wittering
The nursery operates out of a purpose-built nursery that is located outside of the wire at RAF Wittering, St. Michaels Road, Peterborough, PE8 6DW. The nursery is open Mon – Fri from 07.30 – 18.00 for 51 days of the year providing up to 100 places for children aged 0-5 years, including an offer of full, half day and sessional options to meet the needs of service families living and working at RAF Wittering. There are currently 121 children on roll. There are 15 staff employed to work with the children. Where capacity permits and is identified additional provision including wraparound childcare and holiday provision for 4 - 11 years should be provided. This is needed to support the workforce of RAF Wittering (Military, Civil Servants, and Contractors) and to also deliver childcare support to the wider local community.
RAF Wyton
The nursery operates out of a purpose-built building outside the wire at RAF Wyton, Wiltshire Road, Huntingdon PE28 2EX. The nursery is open Mon – Fri from 07.30 to 18.00, 51 weeks of the year providing up to 78 places for children aged 0-5 years, including an offer of full, half day and sessional options to meet the needs of service families living and working at RAF Wyton. There are currently 88 children on roll. There are 20 staff employed to work with the children. The nursery accepts funding to provide free early education for children aged two, three and four years. Wraparound childcare and holiday provision (4 - 11 years) has been identified as a requirement where capacity permits. This would ideally be reinstated to support the workforce of RAF Wyton (Military, Civil Servants, and Contractors) and to also deliver childcare support to the wider local community.

Background:
The NCA leads the UK’s fight to cut serious and organised crime, protecting the public by targeting and pursuing those criminals who pose the greatest risk to the UK.

The purpose of this document is to engage suppliers with a summary of the National Crime Agency’s (NCA) requirements for its upcoming Facial Recognition (FR) solution. This is not a bidding opportunity and does not represent a contractual commitment but is a means by which industry can provide information.

We are seeking feedback on the initial requirements and delivery strategy. The services will be fully detailed in tender documentation. Any future procurement activity shall be conducted in accordance with the relevant Procurement Legislation in place at that point in time.

A decision by any prospective provider not to submit a response to this document will not prejudice future engagements.

Please Note:
This Request for Information (RFI) is an information gathering exercise, no further discussions with industry are planned at this stage.

The closing date for responses to this RFI 11/10/2024 at 1200.

Should the NCA take this procurement forward, it will be issued via the NCA’s ATAMIS e-tendering solution, suppliers must be registered with this platform in order to take part in any future procurement exercise. Please reach out to the point of contact if you require registration instructions.

The NCA is currently exploring a new FR solution requirement. The requirement includes both purchase of the FR solution, its installation, relevant updates and required support and maintenance at a national, enterprise level.

This RFI aims to achieve the following outcomes:
1.	Inform and align the NCA requirement with industry capability and processes.
2.	To inform a commercial strategy that enables the implementation of an enduring solution.
3.	To explore Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) costings and associated maintenance throughout the contract for the Facial Recognition solution.

Scope of Requirements:
To meet the NCA’s requirements, suppliers must be able to provide upon mobilisation of any contract one of the following solutions:
1.	Have a proven ability of delivering 1:1, 1:Many, Many:Many Retrospective Facial Recognition (RFR) from still probe images and video footage, singularly and in bulk.
2.	Have a proven ability of delivering RFR capability from challenging imagery/video footage  – such as poor quality, off-angle and/or non-frontal.
3.	Have an FR algorithm that has been rigorously tested through NIST and/or NPL, with proven successful results in relation to 1:1, 1:Many, accuracy and non-demographic bias.
4.	Be able to be used in conjunction, as an automated process, with a large image gallery/data-set held on an NCA-owned IT platform.
5.	Have the ability to be used in conjunction with Officer Initiated Facial Recognition (OIFR) and Live Facial Recognition (LFR) technologies.
6.	Be deployable onto an NCA-owned IT platform which has no direct internet access.
7.	Be supported or updated as appropriate.
8.	Have the potential to export and ingest identified videos/images so NCA can data share with partners.

Volumes:
The project is scoped to deliver a FR capability to the NCA. It is anticipated that the FR solution will be used in conjunction with a large image data-set. This data-set will be increased and its scope widened over time – as such any FR solution will need to be able to adapt to any increase in data etc.

There will be a requirement for scalability in terms of licence holders as our FR capability matures.

Data, Security and Vetting Requirements:
Should the NCA take this procurement forward, suppliers will have to meet NCA Supply Chain Security, Security Vetting and Data Security Requirements. These details will be included in any future tender but the following mandatory security requirements will apply as a minimum:

- Cyber Essentials Plus (CE+) and Cyber Essentials Requirements for IT infrastructure 2020. Where certification for Cyber Essentials Plus is not held but certification for ISO 27001 is held and is accredited by the United Kingdom Accreditation Services (UKAS) the scope must include the controls listed within Cyber Essentials Plus;
- HMG Baseline Personnel Security Standard (BPSS) 2018;
- Off-Shoring – Cabinet Office Guidance 2020; and
- Adherence to National Security Vetting

Responding to the RFI:
Responses to this RFI will be reviewed by subject matter experts from different functional areas within the NCA.

Any details provided in response to this RFI will be used for information purposes only and will not be used to determine the potential Suppliers who will be invited to bid, should the NCA proceed to tender.

The results and analysis of this RFI shall not constitute any form of pre-qualification exercise.

Nothing in this RFI, or any other engagements with Industry prior to a formal procurement process, shall be construed as a representation as to the NCA’s ultimate decision in relation to the future requirement.

To respond to this RFI please complete this excel spreadsheet making sure to answer all questions and return via the Atamis Portal.

Any supplier costs incurred in responding to, or engaging with, this RFI will not be reimbursed. Additional information: We would like to invite interested parties to register their interest via the following Atamis Supplier Portal registration link https://nca-atamis.my.site.com/ProSpend__eSourcing_Community_Registration?locale=uk.

To ensure there is sufficient capability and interest from the market in order to run any procurement, participants will need to complete in full and return the Request for Information questionnaire to the abovementioned Sourcing portal by:
17:00 Friday 23rd August 2024.

Please highlight any areas/barriers to bidding that you would like to discuss.

Suppliers may submit any questions they have through the clarification section of the portal before the deadline for return of Request for Information questionnaires. The NCA cannot confirm that clarification questions will be responded to within a specific timeframe.

The option to engage with individual suppliers following the submission of competed RFI does not amount to a commitment to engage and any such engagement will be at the NCA’s sole discretion.

The provider is commissioner to deliver locally enhanced services for the Rotherham population. CPV 85121100-4 General-practitioner services.

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.

Tai Tarian is a not-for-profit Registered Social Landlord that was set up in March 2011 to manage, maintain and improve over 9,000 properties spread throughout the Neath Port Talbot County Borough.
Tai Tarian are undertaking an organisation wide Transformation Programme consisting of five inter-linking workstreams:
1)	Customer Experience – At the root of the strategic themes upon which all others are built is customer experience. We have a clear need to continuously assess the services, experience and customer journey with an aim of becoming externally accredited/recognised for our high-quality customer experience.
2)	Colleague Experience – It is apparent that a key theme of change is around the colleague experience and ensuring that we deliver the highest quality experience to create a high-performance environment that attracts and supports the best talent we can gain access to.
3)	Organisational – There are a number of goals that sit at the organisational level, particularly around having absolute clarity on the offerings, services and resulting operating model that needs to orient more towards our customer experience.
4)	Data and Digital – Much of how we will deliver in the future will be underpinned by modern platforms and applications that allow us to derive insight from our data, which will be well managed, in order to become an evidence based organisation that is delivering high quality digital experiences for all.
5)	Business Systems – There is a significant level of legacy and technical debt that has been built up over time that will have to be addressed as part of the transformation. This theme picks up these underpinning activities that are necessary to enable the transformation.
To support our transformation, we are looking to replace our existing business systems, with a goal to ensure our services are of the highest quality and that our employees and stakeholders are not burdened by inefficient processes and systems.
This PIN is a Pre-Market Engagement issued by Tai Tarian to gain an understanding of options available in the market, prior to finalising our requirements ahead of the next stage of procurement.  We are also looking for this PIN to guide what areas we should cover in the procurement to ensure we select the best products for Tai Tarian.

description:
The primary goal is to implement a modern Identity and Access Management (IAM) solution aligned with a robust Identity Governance structure to provide a platform that underpins the University's Digital Strategy aims for Organisational Excellence.  This will align the identity system with the University's strategic growth plan, especially supporting the international growth agenda and desire to provide a more personalised digital experience for staff and students. We will prepare the identity governance tool for increased complexity and expansion opportunities, whilst also improving the security of our systems and data.
The University operates a highly complex digital environment, with a wide range of identity types requiring access to high value digital services.  Many of these will have role-based access requirements, providing the right access within these system at the right time. Digital identities, for both staff and student will have to accommodate multiple personas and will need to be both diverse and flexible. An example might be a student who then becomes a researcher or contributor who then moves on to become an employee. How that identity is managed throughout its lifecycle within our organisation has many challenges, and this project presents an aspirational opportunity to move to a single Identity for joiners, movers, leavers, and returners.
The university is highly collaborative in its core teaching, research, and enterprise objectives.  We need to facilitate efficient and secure access to services for trusted partners and visitors, some of these use cases are complex and highly sensitive.  We wish to leverage emerging technologies to provide trusted access with other Institutions and assurance platforms.  Elevated access and non-person system identities also need to be created, requested and released with appropriate tracking and management.
An appropriate granularity of access control is required to track and optimise our licence provisioning and associated costs for software ranging from large enterprise, high performance research computing through to niche desktop software installations. Increasingly our service provision is distributed across cloud hosted SAAS providers with the associated integration challenges for complex Identity data.
Governance needs to be improved to verify that the high level of access provisioning is accurate and appropriate.  This needs to be risk driven, actively recognising and escalating high risk Identities or usage.
Objectives, deliverables, and targeted outcomes
The overarching outcomes to be realised by the Identity and Access Management project are:
•	Futureproofing of the University's identity platform - By replacing the existing IDM platform with a sustainable solution that is supportable long-term by staff and technical teams, the University will benefit both financially and operationally, by removing "key-person dependency" and optimising staff time through upskilling and redeployment.
•	Investing in an identity platform that supports the University Digital Strategy - This project will not only improve the identity and the access lifecycle, but it will also ease the deployment of modern identity capabilities to support the end-to-end student and staff experience at the University.  This will utilise a single identity from initial engagement before an individual joins the University, throughout their journey, and after they leave.
•	Protection of digital assets and services at the University - By implementing role-based access and setting the appropriate permissions and models at the right time, the University will enhance their security capabilities, providing consistent and seamless provisioning of services and reducing the risk of unauthorised access and security breaches.
Procurement Process:
This procurement process is being conducted as an Open Procedure.
Contract Period:
The University proposes to enter into a Contract for nine (9) years - this will be the maximum contract period, including any potential extensions with the successful tenderer(s).
This will comprise of an initial contract period of five (5) years with an option to extend by a further two 24 month periods, subject to satisfactory performance and at the discretion of the University.
Contract Value:
The estimated Contract Value is £4,500,000(excluding VAT).
This figure is based on a capital project budget of £650,000 for implementation and delivery of the specified requirements. An operational budget of £3,500,000 for licensing and support for the full (potential) nine (9) year term and a further budget of £350,000 to purchase additional resource days throughout the term of the Contract, as required and up to a total overall spend of £4,500,000.
