title: Enhanced Mental Health Pathfinder (EMHP) - Market Engagement -  Networking Opportunity

description:
NHS England London Region (hereafter referred to as "The Authority") invites interested, suitably qualified and experienced providers to attend a Market Engagement Event in advance of publication of Enhanced Mental Health Pathfinder (EMHP) Services across London. Please note, the main purpose of this event is to network with other potential providers.
NHS England - London Health and Justice Team are seeking to procure a collaborative partnership to deliver a pan-London Enhanced Mental Health Pathfinder service for victims and survivors of sexual abuse or assault with complex trauma related mental health needs.
The main service outcome will be to increase access, reduce fragmentation and work collaboratively across sectors to address the identified barriers within the pathways, and between statutory and voluntary sector service providers.
The EMHP will be a partnership of service providers working together to deliver the service specification including clinical support, training and development and creating a network of partners.
Key objectives of Pathfinders are to:
o	create and improve pathways and partnership working approaches to the benefit of individuals with complex trauma related mental health needs associated with sexual assault and abuse;
o	improve access to professionals trained in identification of, and appropriate response to, complex trauma related mental health needs associated with sexual assault and abuse;
o	for individuals with complex trauma related mental health needs the primary aim is to reduce complex trauma related symptoms and improve quality of life (improve individual wellbeing, reduce mental health symptomology, minimise harm and re-traumatisation, improve functioning (including social and occupational) and support healing and recovery);
o	encourage establishment of trauma-informed systems that have impact beyond this service; o build evidence base for the value of new approaches.
Core principles of pathfinders for adult victims and survivors of sexual assault and abuse with complex trauma related mental health needs:
1.	Reduce fragmentation in services and increase access to professionals competent and confident in identifying and responding to the needs of adult victims and survivors;
2.	Every interaction matters. Promotion of trauma-informed and strengths-based approaches that acknowledge the need for personalisation, collaboration, and choice;
3.	Focus on collaboration and co-production.
Market Engagement:
Following the last Market Engagement Event on 19 February 2025 which assisted the Commissioners with testing its assumptions and proposed service requirements, this second market engagement event will take place to enable further networking and discussion, as well as to share updates around the contracting mechanism and proposed service outcomes.
The Authority plans to hold this on Wednesday 7 May 2025 from 14:00 - 16:30 at Wellington House, Lower Ground, 133 - 155 Waterloo Road, London, SE1 8UG.
This Market Engagement event is open to any interested potential bidder and is not limited to those that attended the previous event.

This request is in relation to the purchasing of specialist filming, audio and photography equipment.
Although an extensive list, highlights include 7 cameras, 9 specialist lenses, 4 professional broadcast microphones, broadcast teleprompter system, studio lighting setup, and auxiliary items including batteries, tripods and storage cases.
A procurement process for this contract was initiated in January 2025. Procurement officials attempted to obtain quotes from the WG ICT End User supplier, but the required items were not available. Officials also approached the existing AV services contract, but they confirmed that this was out of scope of the contract for WG.
Three quotes were then sought and each supplier was given the same kit list and instruction that we needed the contract to be fulfilled with delivery before end of March. Following evaluation, this supplier was selected to fulfil the requirements.

procurementMethodDetails: Direct award

procurementMethodRationale:
MDI require 384-well automated patch-clamping with the following features:
1.	Ability to patch in fluoride free solutions. This is critical as the channels we work on are affected by fluoride.
2.	The ability to patch lysosomes. This is critical as we are investigating lysosomal channels and need to be able to patch them in their native membrane environment.
3.	The ability to perfuse internal solutions during measurements. Critical to characterising channel function.
4.	Is compatible with our existing Nanion port-a-patch and Patchliner devices to ensure consistency and allow protocols to be transferred between devices.
5.	The ability to change to protocol on the fly for assay development.
This equipment must adhere to the above criteria (including compatibility with existing equipment). Alternatives have been researched, however have been deemed incompatible. The only other high throughput electrophysiology system available is noted to be incompatible with MDI requirements.
In addition to this, the supplier has a patent relating to the equipment, this being EP 1 775 586 81.

The provider must take responsibility for receiving calls from clinicians that have treated a patient at home out-of-hours and conveying messages back to the patient's GP practice.
The care coordination hub should also be available for other providers in the system to use as a single point of access for all forms of communication that need to be dealt with outside of the normal GP practice opening hours.
Clinical Assessment and Navigation
The provider will be responsible for operating an Urgent Care Co-ordination Hub (UCCH), operating as a 'single point of access', delivering clinical assessment and navigation. The service will be delivered by an integrated workforce that must work together seamlessly and interdependently, achieving the required outcomes for the population of Nottingham and Nottinghamshire.
The Urgent Care Co-ordination Hub will:
•	Operate 24/7

It should also be mentioned that the council and Preoptima have received funding from Innovate UK to develop this platform, which has been under development for the past two years.
It is to be noted that the council are applying PCR 2015 and not PA 2023 regulations due to the engagement with Prepotima and the publication of a notice under Regulation 40 of PCR 2015 prior to 24/02/25.

description: Information systems or technology planning services

procurementMethodRationale:
Regulation 32(2)(b) of the PCR enables the award of a public contract by a negotiated procedure without prior publication where the services can only be supplied by a particular economic operator where competition is absent for technical reasons but only in the case where no reasonable alternative or substitute exists and the absence of competition is not the result of an artificial narrowing down of the parameters of the procurement.
The service has carried out market due diligence and Market Engagement to assess existing supplier capabilities in relation to the provision of a web-based Whole Life Carbon review platform for local authorities.  From the submissions received, officers are satisfied  it has been confirmed that no provider other than Preoptima is currently able to provide a fully developed, functional web-based WLC review platform that meets the council’s needs.
Preoptima holds a registered patent for the Control Model underpinning its platform. Its fully functional and tested generative design model to review building material quantities and carbon emission, allows for element and material level checks to be carried out against a generative control model. This exceeds "document comparison" level reviews.
It is to be noted that the council are applying PCR 2015 and not PA 2023 regulations due to the engagement with Prepotima and the publication of a notice under Regulation 40 of PCR 2015 prior to 24/02/25. In addition, funding for this project ceases at the end of the month.

title: Residual Waste Management Contract Extension (VEAT Notification)

description:
This is not a new contract opportunity, but rather a VEAT notice to inform the market that the contracting authorities are seeking to extend their existing contract for the treatment and disposal of residual waste with Suez Recycling and Recovery UK Ltd which was originally awarded in 1995 and  is due to expire on 31 March 2026.
The extension period will be for a minimum of two years (terminating on 31 March 2028) and for a maximum of five years (with a long stop expiry date of 31 March 2031).  The minor amendments are to: (i) acknowledge the anticipated legislative changes in respect of extension of the UK Emissions Trading Scheme to waste incineration; and (ii) address the reduction in tonnage likely to result from the implementation of weekly segregated food waste collections pursuant to the Separation of Waste (England) Regulations 2024.
The contracting authorities are currently in procurement (alongside three other local authorities) for a longer term contractor to Design, Build, Finance and Operate an energy recovery facility for the treatment and disposal of this waste. This limited contract extension with minor amendments will provide flexibility for the contracting authorities and ensure continuity of service provision for the treatment of non-recycled waste until such time as the successful contractor takes responsibility for the management of the waste under the new longer term contract.

description: Tees Valley

region: UKC

description: The contracting authorities are not awarding a new contract.  This VEAT notice is in respect of a proposed modification to extend and make minor amendments to the existing contract for the treatment and disposal of household and other waste.  See sections II.2.4 and IV.1.1 for further details.

description: Non-hazardous refuse and waste treatment and disposal services

procurementMethodRationale: This VEAT notice relates to a modification to the contract originally awarded in 1995 following a competitive award process.  The contracting authority considers that the modification is permitted by Regulation 72(1)(e) of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 as a modification which is not substantial.  The proposed extension and minor amendment of the contract is based otherwise on substantively the existing terms and conditions and does not render the contract materially different in character, change the economic balance of the contract or considerably extend its scope.  The contracting authorities do not consider that if the contract had originally been advertised to include this extension and minor amendment that it would have attracted any different participants or candidates or that the outcome of the original procurement would have been any different.

Within STW there are currently around 146 patients with ME/CFS who are overdue their follow up appointment with no consultant-led service in place.  These patients have been reviewed by the local Community Trust and have been deemed too complex for the community service at present due to their current management plans.

STW ICB is seeking a provider to undertake a one-off consultant-led clinical review of these patients. The service is to be provided from a base within STW, to determine their ongoing care requirements in line with one of the following three outcomes:
• Continue active treatment
• Discharge from the service in totality
• Management in community either via local community service or GP

STW ICB is seeking Expressions of Interest (EoIs) from potential providers that are suitably qualified and experienced in delivering ME/CFS services.

It is anticipated that any future contract will be for a one-off period, as agreed with the successful provider, with an estimated value of £33,000 including VAT. It is intended that this will be issued as a block contract. NHS Standard Contract Terms and Conditions will apply. It is anticipated that the Contract will commence as soon as is practically possible.
