documentType: economicSelectionCriteria

description:
The Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC) ("The Contracting Authority") invites tenders to provide input and execute external readiness checks of the Greater Manchester Combined Authority and the West Midlands Combined Authority (together, "the MCAs") to provide assurance of readiness for the 'single settlement'
At Spring Budget 2023, the UK Government (HMG) announced the trailblazer devolution deals with the MCAs and set out its commitment to implement single departmental style settlements ('single settlements') for the MCAs at the next Spending Review (SR). The Single Settlements will
reform the way HMG provides grant funding to the MCAs, replacing multiple different funding streams with a single allocation. The goal is to increase the MCAs autonomy, ability to prioritise decisions locally, and ability to reprioritise across its own budgets. In November 2023, HM
Treasury published a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) setting out the principles under which the single settlements with the MCAs will be agreed and implemented. A further annex was then published at Spring Budget 2024.
The main objective of the contract is to produce readiness for settlement via readiness checks to confirm that MCAs can perform the required new functions or have robust plans that will enable them to be performed at the appropriate time.
Services to be provided include, but are not limited to:
- Developing Readiness Checks Criteria
- Designing the approach to gathering the information relevant to MCA readiness, working with the MCAs
- Developing a report
The contract duration will be for a period of 12 weeks. Start date TBC.

procurementMethodDetails: Negotiated without publication of a contract notice

procurementMethodRationale:
The Contracting Authority (i) has a legal personality; (ii) is mainly funded by the Department of Health and Social Care; and (iii) has been established for the specific purpose of meeting needs in the general interest, and does not have an industrial or commercial character and therefore meets the definition of a "body governed by public law" under the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 ("PCR"). The PCR covers "public contracts" which means contracts for pecuniary interest which have as their object the execution of works, the supply of products or the provision of services. The Contract is a services contract under PCR, therefore, caught by the PCR and therefore bound to follow public procurement rules.
Regulation 32(2)(b)(ii) PCR describes the single operator exclusion and is the premise for this award without prior publication. This specific exclusion relates to a requirement to access patients already registered with a specific NHS Hospital Trust. As such the services in question cannot be obtained by any other economic operator.
The Contracting Authority will enter into a contract with Imperial College London following the conclusion of a minimum 10 day standstill period from the date of issue of this notice. The 10 day standstill period will end on 11/05/20224 at 23.59 BST, enabling a contract to be signed on 13/05/2024.

The service will provide information, advice, guidance and outreach support to eligible carers whereby the cared for is resident in Bracknell Forest. This includes adult carers caring for another adult, young carers approaching adulthood and parent-carers caring for a child approaching adulthood.
The service will work collaboratively with partners and key stakeholders to develop services for carers.

The service will support the central priorities of the All-Age Integrated Carers Strategy 2024-2029 and contribute toward the associated outcomes detailed in the Carers Strategy Implementation Plan.

We would like to draw on providers’ expertise to inform the review of the specification and service model.

The purpose of this Prior Information Notice (PIN) is to notify all interested parties of the Authority's intention to undertake a procurement exercise to set up new learning and development contracting vehicle(s) to service Central Government organisations.
The commercial vehicle(s), known as Learning Frameworks 2.0 , will replace existing learning and development contracts  and will deliver blended, and technically innovative, learning solutions for some or all the following (this list is not exhaustive and could be subject to change):
- a core curriculum, defining and providing required skills and knowledge, from foundational to specialist, as defined by the Authority;
- assurance of the quality and relevance of all products and programmes, as defined and agreed by the Government Campus;
- products for management and leadership as defined by the Authority, and assured in relevance by the Leadership College for Government, to build leadership capability  across complex systems, and accountable and effective managers;
- access to specialist training for professions and functions across government, including access to qualifications;
- specific emphasis on understanding and using data, science, technology and engineering, and the basics of public administration, and other skills priorities as defined by the government skills strategy.
The solution will provide support infrastructure and services which may include: administration, scheduling, bookings, venues, evaluation managing and monitoring, management information reporting and analysis, sourcing and procurement, supply chain management, invoicing of services and working with Government venues and on-line services.
The solution will also provide access to licences for learning services and qualifications and off-the-shelf training.
The commercial solution(s) will include organisations with the capability to manage large-scale learning delivery, technologies to support end-to-end learning delivery, a supply chain of delivery partners, including the use of small and medium enterprises and educational institutions, and have access to niche, specialist and research-based knowledge and insight.
The contracts will be flexible to be able to respond to changes, such as policy priorities, workforce locations and demographics, how and when people learn, and technology.
The services will need to reflect policies under A Modern Civil Service and the Government People Plan initiatives, be responsive to transformations of the Civil Service across the UK and overseas, and present a UK-wide service in support of the levelling-up agenda. They will support the Government Campus  evaluation strategy.
