1. Optional Scope - NHSE reserves the right to use the Contract for wider NHSE requirements beyond NHP (NHSE Ancillary Services) and is also procuring the Contract for and on behalf of DHSC and SCCL in respect of Optional Scope. Further information on Optional Scope is included in the accompanying procurement documents. See ITC paragraph 2.1.5 (Optional Scope) and ITC Appendix A1: Outline Scope.
2. Permitted modification - Digital Delivery – NHSE intends to procure a digital delivery partner separately from the PDP. Due to the similar nature of the services and ability for greater integration and efficiencies, NHSE reserves the right (by way of agreement with the PDP) to novate digital delivery services to the PDP. Digital delivery may therefore form part of the PDP Scope of Services during the Contract duration. Accordingly, the anticipated scope of the digital delivery services has been included in this Contract Notice and accompanying procurement documents (including ITC Appendix A1: Outline Scope).
3. Transfer to replacement contracting authority – NHSE reserves the right to transfer the Contract in whole or in part to another public body (or bodies) that during the term of the Contract assume NHSE’s delivery obligations (in whole or in part) to deliver the New Hospital Programme or new NHS hospitals through another iteration of the New Hospital Programme.
4. Trust support - the PDP will provide services to support NHSE and NHS Trusts to ensure that the programmatic benefits are increasingly embedded in hospital design and delivery as these benefits are developed. The PDP Services will also enable NHSE to support the Trusts in the delivery of schemes.
5. Extension to duration of the Contract - NHSE reserves the right to extend the term of the Contract in whole or in part or any other combination for up to a further 4 years to no later than 31 March 2035.

title: New Hospital Programme – Programme Delivery Partner (PDP)

label: Description of procurement

text:
The Government has announced that we will build 40 new hospitals by 2030. Together with 8 hospital schemes which have secured previous investment and will be delivered as part of the programme, this will result in 48 hospitals by the end of the decade, the biggest hospital building programme in a generation.
The Government has confirmed an initial £3.7bn funding allocation over the next four years.
The new hospitals form part of the Government's wider Health Infrastructure Plan, a strategic long-term investment to ensure our world-class healthcare system and staff have the world-class facilities they need for the future.
All the hospital schemes that are part of the New Hospital Programme will work with the central DHSC and NHS England & NHS Improvement team, with the support of regional, system and local NHS Trust leadership, to design and deliver their hospital. A package of support is being provided by the central team to all NHS Trusts in the New Hospital Programme, including business case training and close working to support the scheme development and streamline approvals.
The NHP wishes to initiate early supply market involvement across a wide range of suppliers and topics in support of developing the approach, including:
• Procurement & commercial considerations;
• Modern Methods of Construction (MMC);
• Net zero carbon;
• Digital technologies;
• Future healthcare demand and capacity modelling;
• Skills & workforce;
• Evolving clinical and operational models;
• Integration with regions and systems;
• Improved community service.
New standards will be developed to help standardise the design of new hospitals and make use of modular construction methods to speed up the build. The programmatic approach will facilitate continual improvement and adapt in response to lessons learned from earlier schemes.
As part of the delivery of these new hospitals, NHS Trusts, with support of the central programme team, will be incorporating best practice design certified with input from the UK's best qualified healthcare professionals to ensure the highest quality standards; with particular focus in areas such as improved patient flow, digitisation of services and clinical requirements. The new hospitals will make an important contribution to the Government's net zero target, and wider ambitions for sustainable development, and will complement those outlined in the NHS Long-Term Plan.
This PIN is to signal the commencement of the NHP market engagement programme and invites any interested parties across the whole supplier base to register interest to participate in future market engagement activities. The PIN does not relate to a specific contract or proposed procurement but is to inform suppliers that NHP wishes to commence market engagement and consultation, including inviting responses to the questionnaire available at:
https://www.smartsurvey.co.uk/s/NHP-PIN/
The responses to the questionnaire will inform future NHP market engagement activity.

description: The Gigabit Infrastructure Subsidy programme is a government programme aimed to support the build of gigabit-capable broadband infrastructure in the areas of the UK which are unlikely to attract commercial investment for gigabit-capable broadband infrastructure within a reasonable timeframe, if at all, referred to as the final 20% (f20). Building Digital UK (BDUK, an Executive agency of DCMS) will be targeting its market intervention in these areas of the UK via this subsidy award programme, to subsidise the build of gigabit-capable networks providing long-term, sustainable availability of wholesale gigabit broadband services in the hardest to reach parts of the UK. The Gigabit Infrastructure Subsidy programme builds on the success of existing programmes being delivered by BDUK to deliver gigabit-capable networks across the UK. It is envisaged this programme will last for up to 9 years and award contracts throughout that period.

DCMS is putting a DPS (Dynamic Purchasing System) in place. The geographic scope of the DPS is UK-wide. Its focus is to target the build of gigabit-capable broadband infrastructure in the final 20% (f20) of the country that is not commercially viable for the market to design, build and operate without government intervention. Following successful admission of Suppliers onto the DPS, Suppliers can tender for Call-Off Contracts. Each Call-Off Contract will vary in terms of number of premises covered, value and geographic coverage. BDUK currently expects the average Call-Off Contract size to be around 1,000 to 8,000 premises.
The DPS will be used by BDUK and will be available to the UK's Devolved Administrations and Highlands and Islands Enterprise to award Call-Off Contracts. Devolved Administrations refers to the National Assembly for Wales; the Scottish Government; and the Northern Ireland Assembly and Executive Committee.
The UK Government has confirmed that approximately £5 billion will be allocated to target the final 20% (f20), the hardest to reach parts of the UK. BDUK will be targeting its market intervention in these areas of the UK via a programme to subsidise the design, build and operation of gigabit-capable Supplier networks providing long-term, sustainable availability of wholesale gigabit broadband services in the hardest to reach parts of the UK. Suppliers must be qualified onto the DPS to be eligible to bid for Call-Off Contracts. The competitive process for Call-Off Contracts is expected to commence in 2021.
BDUK currently estimates that £1bn - £2bn of public sector funding will be awarded under the Gigabit Infrastructure Subsidy DPS. The provision of subsidy will be provided in accordance with the UK subsidy control regime.
Applicants wishing to join the DPS must satisfy the selection criteria identified in the procurement documents.
BDUK considers that this DPS may be suitable for small or medium enterprises (SMEs). However, any selection of Suppliers in response to invitations to tender for agreements under the DPS will be based solely on the criteria set out in the procurement documents.

text: The lease or potential capital purchase of Rotary Aircraft for the police purpose. A requirement of 7 aircraft is anticipated, however this may vary. The aircraft must be able to be modified with police role equipment. The contract will include the ongoing requirements of the aircraft as per the Technical Specification. For the avoidance of doubt, the contracting authorities authorised to access the framework agreement(s) will be the entity entering into the lease agreements with third party finance providers.

awardCriteriaDetails: If WYCA deems that a Lot 3 solution constitutes the most economically advantageous tender, the intention is that the successful Supplier in respect of Lot 3 will enter into the Framework Agreement, and both of the ‘Lot 1’ and ‘Lot 2’ call-off contracts (full versions of which will be available during the next phase of the Procurement). In this instance Lot 1 and Lot 2 will not be awarded.

periodRationale: The Framework term will be 4 years plus an optional 2 year extension, due to the exceptional nature of the subject matter, that consists of bespoke requirements to support UK policing, requiring significant production times and implementation period. This added complexity creates longer timescales for procurement activity and increase internal and supplier bid costs prohibiting regular tendering.

description:
This procurement aims to establish a police aviation services Framework Agreement.
Immediately following the award of the Framework Agreement, WYCA intends to enter into
two initial call-off contracts for:
LOT 1. The lease or capital purchase of seven rotary aircraft for the police purpose, such
aircraft to be modified with police role equipment; and
LOT 2. The delivery of an outsourced police air support service to the London region.

This has changed, for the Framework Agreement only, to BlueLight Commercial 12517649 Lower Ground, 5-8 The Sanctuary, Westminster, London, SW1P 3JS with effect from 13th September 2023.
As per corrigendum 2024/S 000-024601 published on 6th August 2024 - The tender documentation associated with notice reference: 2022/S 000-002330 stated that any leases for the aircraft would be held by the bidders. This model has been changed so that participating contracting authorities (authorised to access the framework agreement(s)) will be the entity entering into the lease agreements with third party finance providers.
BlueLight Commercial Limited (being the current contracting authority of the Procurement, having replaced West Yorkshire Combined Authority as the Authority) took the decision to abandon Lot 2 and Lot 3 of this Procurement. The Authority decided that, in light of the quantum of the initial bids and the indication from tenderers given during subsequent commercial workshops, that these initial bids would likely only increase at final tender stage, it would not represent value for money to the public purse, for it to proceed with Lot 2 and Lot 3 of the Procurement. Bidders were notified of this abandonment on 5th July 2024.

rationale:
Need for modification brought about by circumstances which a diligent contracting authority/entity could not foresee: The value increase is required due to increased demand from
●	Unexpected events including Covid-19, Ukraine war, Afghan crisis and UK Migration crisis;
●	Continued customer use of existing frameworks caused by delay in the Procurement Bill coming into law; and
●	A greater number of services being procured under certain lots than anticipated.

description:
Notice of necessary increase to the estimated overall value of CCS’ Technology Services 3 Framework (RM6100) procured pursuant to Contract Notice 2020/S 210 415766 (“Framework”) from £2,000,000,000 to £4,000,000,000.
The value of the Framework lots will be increased to:
Lot 1: £220,000,000
Lot 2: £240,000,000 - £300,000,000
Lot 3a: £550,000,000 - £750,000,000
Lot 3b: £240,000,000
Lot 3c: £85,000,000
Lot 3d: £1,000,000,000 - £1,500,000,000
Lot 4: £1,050,000,000 - £1,550,000,000
Lot 5: £100,000,000
The lot value increases are expressed as ranges for lots 2, 3a, 3d and 4.  Whether the maximum of each of these lots would be reached shall be subject to the overall maximum framework value of £4 billion.
No other changes will be made to the Framework.
CCS’ view is that this modification to the Framework value is permitted pursuant to Regulation 72(1)(e) of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015.
Regulation 72(1)(e) provides a modification is permitted where irrespective of value it is not substantial within the meaning of Regulation 72(8).
Regulation 72(8) provides a modification will be considered substantial if any one or more of the following conditions is met:
(a) the modification renders the framework materially different in character from the one initially concluded;
(b) the modification introduces conditions which, had they been part of the initial procurement procedure, would have—
(i) allowed for the admission of other candidates than those initially selected,
(ii) allowed for the acceptance of a tender other than that originally accepted, or
(iii) attracted additional participants in the procurement procedure;
(c) the modification changes the economic balance of the framework in favour of the contractor in a manner which was not provided for in the framework;
(d) the modification extends the scope of the framework considerably;
(e) a new contractor replaces the original contractor in cases other than those provided for in paragraph (1)(d).
CCS’ view is that the increase is not a substantial variation because the:
●	framework will not be materially different in character from the one originally concluded;
●	increase would not have allowed for a different tender to be accepted or attracted additional bidders;
●	increase does not change the economic balance of the Framework in favour of the supplier(s); and
●	increase does not extend the scope of the Framework considerably.
While CCS is not required to publish this notice it does so to be transparent and will observe a voluntary standstill period, after which the increase will take effect.
As set out above, this is a non-substantial modification under Regulation 72(1)(e), but, in the event that this modification is deemed not to be a modification under the PCR, then this notice should be treated as providing the requisite notice of a contract award.

On 2.4.2014 Government introduced its Government Security Classifications (GSC) scheme
