description:
The BBC welcomes responses to this RFI in order to inform our thinking prior to any potential procurement exercise. Responding to this RFI will allow the BBC to:
- build an understanding of current solutions available in the marketplace
- gain feedback on:
o the availability of solutions in the marketplace,
o whether there is one solution to meet the needs, or whether these would need to be met by differing solutions
o whether functionality not currently met is on a supplier’s roadmap and any cost/timescales associated with building it in
o indicative costs and timescales for the onboarding of the solution
o support of solution
o any barriers to the implementation of the product/solution
This RFI is primarily for BBC Public Service (CIAM), and secondary for BBC Enterprise (EIAM). You are welcome to submit information relating to either or both, depending on your product capabilities.
Should you choose to respond to this RFI the BBC will take on board all other responses to the RFI when shaping any future procurement activity.
For the avoidance of doubt, any information provided to the BBC in response to this RFI will be treated as confidential and non-binding. No contract will be awarded as a consequence of this RFI process, however, the BBC anticipates launching a procurement opportunity in the near future.
Responding to this RFI is not a prerequisite for participation in a subsequent procurement, nor does it give any advantage in that procurement. The BBC would welcome responses to this RFI so that it can build an understanding of current capabilities, in what the BBC knows to be a quickly evolving marketplace.
Any contract start dates provided are estimated as these dates and contract duration and tender publishing date are not known at this stage.

procurementMethodDetails: Direct award

procurementMethodRationale:
This direct award is to extend the provision from Pasante. The current NHS SC framework 2020/S 012-023209 is unsuitable for the services needs. 2020/S 012-023209 was due to be replaced on 29th September 2024 but was extended until 31st March 2025. An interim agreement was put in place ref 2425-039-STA-PHW between PHW and Pasante to cover this period until the new NHS SC Framework was in place.
2020/S 012-023209 was then extended again until 30th June 2025 and this contract is to cover the service until the new expiry date. This STA is 4 months plus an optional 4 month extension. The initial 4 months will allow time for the new framework to be in place and for a contract under it to be created providing it meets the needs of the service. The extension period of 4 months will only be exercised if a) the new NHS SC framework is unsuitable and the requirement will then be tendered, or b) the new NHS SC framework is delayed further in which case the requirement will be tendered.

description: NHS Blood & Transplant (NHSBT) are seeking to engage with suppliers of blood component transport containers via a preliminary market engagement exercise. NHSBT require these containers to maintain strict temperature control and the protection of precious blood components (red cells, platelets and frozen material) during transit from our distribution sites to hospitals or internally between NHSBT’s 14 sites across England. All of these journeys will be over either long or short distances. This potential requirement is anticipated to be for supply and maintenance of these containers along with the maintenance of the existing NHSBT fleet. The requirement for the containers is likely to include the following: - Construction must be strong, robust, durable and tamper proof, made from lightweight and impermeable material that is resistant to weather such as heat, cold and rain. - Must maintain the surface temperature of various blood component types at 2-6°C (red cells, 20-24°C (platelets) ≤ -30°C (frozen components) for transport journeys up to 9 hours, 8 hours and 11 hours respectively. - The use of temperature stabilisation material is permitted to assist temperature control, such as phase change material or dry ice. - The containers must be able to be used for all three component types with an external label pocket to allow switching of component labelling to enable multi-use. - The containers must be available in at least two sizes, small (capacity 1-6 units) and large (capacity 1-12 units). - The container must comply with all health and safety regulations in both its construction and use with handles at both sides (not shoulder straps) to enable a safe one-person load with the weight not exceeding 13Kg when fully laden. - Any proposed new solution must be cost effective, simple, safe, and space saving with excellent temperature control performance, and must be conducive to our current operational requirements. It should be noted that other health authorities may be permitted to use any agreements awarded.

This ensures that registrants are properly notified of their obligations, especially in cases where digital communication may be unread, or insufficient for legal purposes.
To support this statutory function, we require a reliable print management and mail fulfilment partner who is capable of handling high volumes of legally significant and time sensitive correspondence.
The Supplier will undertake the management, proofing and production of personalised mailings using the data provided by the GDC. This includes proofing correspondences, validating the data and sending out the following:

Procurement Description – Anticipated Contract Scope
The Royal Armouries Museum in Leeds is seeking to engage with the market in advance of a formal procurement process for the appointment of a world-class exhibition design consultancy. This opportunity forms a key part of the institution’s Armouries 700 initiative – a transformative, multi-phase capital programme.
The Royal Armouries intends to appoint a single exhibition design consultancy to support the full programme of works from concept development through to final delivery and handover. However, the progression of each stage within the project is subject to the successful securing of external funding, and to formal review points. At these key gateways, both the Royal Armouries and the appointed Designer will review progress to confirm that funding remains in place, the project scope is still required, and the working relationship continues to be productive and aligned. Should funding not be secured, or if either party is not satisfied at a review stage, the Royal Armouries reserves the right to pause, alter the scope, or terminate the contract without proceeding to subsequent phases.
Overview
This contract is for the design and delivery of a major re-display and reinterpretation of approximately 4,740 m² of permanent gallery space over five floors within the Royal Armouries Museum in Leeds. The appointed design team will play a central role in the phased transformation of the museum, helping realise our ambition to revolutionise how visitors engage with the UK’s national collection of arms and armour.
The total anticipated value of the exhibition design contract is estimated at £14.2 million (net of Vat) £15,064,000 (inclusive of Vat) across all phases of delivery. The appointment will begin with an initial development phase and is expected to extend, subject to review gateways, through to final installation and handover in 2032.
Key Outputs and Deliverables
The Designer will lead the creative and technical development of new permanent galleries, supporting interpretative, digital, spatial, and environmental design across:
•4,740m² of permanent exhibition space including War, Peace, Tournament, Self Defence, and Asia/Africa galleries
•A new immersive, multi-functional performance space
•Ground-floor interpretive installations to enhance early visitor engagement

•Multi-sensory engagement: Designing for immersive, performative, playful, and reflective experiences.
•Sustainability and accessibility: Complying with the Bizot Green Protocol and exceeding statutory accessibility standards. Passive environmental controls, low-energy solutions, and minimal structural interventions are expected.
Audience & Impact Goals
The redisplay aims to:
•Attract over 500,000 visitors per annum
•Significantly grow underrepresented and diverse audiences
•Embed inclusive narratives that resonate with local and global communities
•Establish the museum as a national destination and cultural anchor in the North of England

Interested parties should consider how they would propose to:
•Mobilise a multidisciplinary design team with relevant experience
•Collaborate with the Royal Armouries team and external stakeholders
•Integrate interpretative, environmental and commercial requirements
•Ensure continuity of quality and budget control over an 8-year delivery programme
Next Steps
We invite interested suppliers to register their interest and contribute to the market engagement process. Responses will inform the forthcoming tender documentation and may influence the final procurement approach. A formal call for competition under the Public Contract Regulations 2015 is anticipated later in 2025.

All delivery will end on the 31st January 2026 with a further month permitted to complete final output and outcome collation and reporting.

You are invited to bid to deliver on the NEET Engagement & Reduction Project which is funded via the UK Shared Prosperity Fund (UKSPF). The Council is looking to receive applications to join a multi-supplier framework to carry out the required services. A maximum of two suppliers will be selected.Telford & Wrekin Council has received confirmation of further funding for a 12-month period from April 2025.
The Council is committed to supporting all our young people to have a great transition into learning and work and are looking for targeted support for our most ‘at risk’ or vulnerable young people.
In many cases we can identify those young people who are at risk of becoming NEET before they leave education and work to address the barriers. Unfortunately, some young people leave school, education or training and become NEET. The claimant count in the borough for those aged 16-24 equates to 990 young people. We are seeking 2 providers to engage and support these young people, working with them to overcome barriers, and to progress them into education, training or employment.
Evidence has shown that early engagement impacts positively on their future and prevents them from becoming long term unemployed. We want to retain our young people and talent, so they have successful careers in the Borough
Data shows that as a Borough we have a lower than national average number of people achieving Level 2 qualifications. Further, businesses tell us that young people are not demonstrating the soft skills required for work and in some cases have unrealistic expectations of employment.
We believe:
•	Every young person should have the opportunity to learn and fulfil their potential.
•	Young people should be supported into adulthood through pathways that offer skills and personal development.
•	Young people should feel valued in the economy, have a sense of belonging and be recognised for the contribution they make.
•	Ensure our young people have a sense of citizenship and want to play an active role in their local communities and the economy.
•	We are determined that every young person will succeed in Telford & Wrekin, and our role is to ensure it is one of the best places in the country for young people to grow, learn, develop and achieve.
The two providers will support young people identified as NEET (aged 16-24), working with them to overcome barriers and increasing their chances of progression.  Each provider will be awarded a call off contract and be required to deliver across Telford & Wrekin.
It is intended that once a call off contract has been awarded, full delivery will commence within 14 days.
Entering into a Framework Agreement with a Provider shall not be deemed to imply that any Call-Off Contracts will be issued to that Provider.  Admittance onto the Framework is no guarantee of any award of Call-Off Contract or services, or future ordering of any volume or value of services.

Market Engagement Notice
Overview
The law requires local authorities to make provision for the education of school-age children, up to age 25 for those with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND). As part of this provision, Kent County Council places children and young people with Education Health Care Plans, with significant and/or complex needs, in independent and non-maintained special schools (INMSS). The Council currently has a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) framework contract for such placements to monitor the quality of provision against a benchmark of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs).
This framework contract will expire at the end of August 2026, and the Council is looking to procure a new contract from September 2026, pending completion of formal governance. Therefore, our intention is to publish the Tender opportunity in January 2026, with anticipated contract award by July 2026. Please note these timelines are indicative.
Context
The context of SEND education provision in Kent is similar to the national picture in terms of an increasing demand for specialist provision for children and young people with more significant and/or complex profiles of special educational needs.
There are gaps and inequities in the types of provision available for Kent families, with some children and young people placed a distance away from their homes and even in other local authority areas. As part of re-procuring a new contract, Kent County Council seeks to address these issues and ensure quality provision together with effective and efficient use of resources, particularly in a challenging financial climate.
The Council is planning a range of stakeholder engagement activities with families, children, and young people who attend Kent-funded INMSS provisions, as well as a whole market engagement event to be hosted virtually on Friday 13th June 2025, from 10:30 to 12:00, which INMSS providers will be invited to attend.
Aims
•	Ensuring learners attend the provision, with effective measures to ensure high attendance.
•	Maintaining a focus on high aspirations and on improving outcomes for children and young people.
•	Developing positive working relationships with parents and carers so that they are confident in the effectiveness of the educational provision for their child and know that their children are valued and safe.
•	Increasing and maintaining parental confidence in the local authority's providers of choice.
•	Better management of demand and capacity as part of a whole SEN system, with highly specialist provision only for children and young people with the most significant and/or complex needs.
•	More responsive provision to pupils' fluctuating needs, reducing placement breakdown, and minimising transitions to other schools throughout a child's education journey.
•	Providing education provision as close to where children live as possible, and identifying gaps in provision to meet pupil need types.
Invitation to Providers
We invite all interested suppliers to register on the Kent Business Portal (https://www.kentbusinessportal.org.uk/)
Once registered, providers can express their interest by searching under current opportunities for 'Independent and Non-Maintained Special Schools (INMSS) Contract - CN260427' and selecting the 'Register an Interest' button.

The Ministry of Justice (MoJ) is exploring the capability and capacity of the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) market for the supply of a Metal Detection equipment, including dual sensor ferro and non-ferro magnetic metal detection archways, handheld detectors, and portable detection poles. The MoJ are taking this approach to support the HMPPS estate for the duration of the Agreement and estimated asset life of the equipment. The tender is expected to be published in September 2025.
Metal detection capability forms an important part of front-end security in prisons at staff, prisoner, and visitor gates. The Archways are part of a wider capability which looks to prevent contraband from entering prisons through multiple routes. The use of handheld wands and portable detection poles by prison staff provide essential avenues for searching for threats by scanning people, objects, specific areas and bags respectively. Archways, Hand-held Wands and Poles used in conjunction have a major impact on reducing conveyance routes for contraband entering prisons through Staff Gate Entry, Prisoner Visits and Prisoner reception by detecting threats related to SIM cards, mobiles phones and razor blades amongst other metallic threat items.
The Authority will aggregate the project into three lots to allow suppliers to bid for one or more lots based on capability in meeting metal and wider threat detection requirements. The Lots will be formulated as the following:
-	Lot 1- Dual sensor ferro and non-ferro magnetic metal detection archways
-	Lot 2- Handheld Detectors
-	Lot 3- Portable Detection Poles
Lots and details of technical specifications for equipment are liable to change to this currently being in pre-procurement stage.

The UK Government’s Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (LEVI) fund supports local authorities in England to work with the chargepoint industry, to improve the roll out and commercialisation of local charging infrastructure. These public chargepoints will help residents who don’t have access to off-street parking and need to charge their electric vehicles (EVs). The LEVI Capital fund aims to:
- deliver a step-change in the deployment of local, primarily low power, on-street charging infrastructure across England
- accelerate the commercialisation of, and investment in, the local charging infrastructure sector
West Midlands Combined Authority (WMCA) on behalf of the 7 constituent Local Authority (LA) areas of the West Midlands are seeking providers of Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (EVI) to deliver and manage a range of EVI solutions that will support its residents without the ability to charge off-street at home from their own residential electricity supply.
WMCA intends to enter into Concession Contracts with Charge Point Operators (CPOs) or other parties that will fund and deliver the required services, namely a network of publicly accessible electric vehicle charging spaces that meet the needs of local residents and demonstrably support the WMCA’s and constituent LAs’ EVI strategies, in-line with the requirements of the LEVI funding.

A Prior Information Notice (PIN) was published on Find a Tender Service (FTS) on 10th September 2024 to raise awareness to the market of the upcoming procurement, invite them to a Market Engagement Event and request completion of a pre-market Questionnaire. The reference number for the PIN is ocds-h6vhtk-0499ae.
The pre-market Questionnaire contained 22 questions relating to Tariff Margin Caps, Inclusion of a cable management channel Lot, Lotting Structure, Partnering, Dependencies, 3rd Party Land, Sponsorship/Revenue Generation, Exclusivity and Concession Fees. The Questionnaire was issued to all suppliers who expressed an interest in the opportunity and requested completion and return by 20th September 2024. Following the deadline, 13 responses were received.
A Market Engagement Event was held via Microsoft Teams on 24th September 2024 to provide more information to the market on the region, the funding, the opportunity and the proposed procurement process. The event also included a number of polls and a Q&A session to facilitate further feedback and input from the market.
The main insights gained from the engagement conducted were that the proposed lotting structure suggested by WMCA was preferential to combining Lots or seeking a single CPO to deliver the whole programme and that a cable management channel from private electricity supply hasn’t been tested using a concession model previously, however CPOs would be open to exploring a concession model. It also helped to inform the tariff margin caps, concession fees and revenue share that have been set.

title: A Bed Every Night (ABEN) Phase 5

description:
ABEN was established in 2018 offering "no second night out" access to accommodation for individuals who are currently rough sleeping or at risk of rough sleeping in Greater Manchester.
In Oldham, the local authority receives grant funding from GMCA to provide 23 (including one emergency bed) bed spaces, and a further 6 spaces for individuals with no recourse to public funds. ABEN has now been operating for over 5 years and remains a
 central pillar and safety net for people experiencing, or at risk of, rough sleeping. Since 2022, the landscape for
homelessness, rough sleeping and poverty has changed considerably across borough:
• Record high numbers of individuals approaching the Local Authority for support due to
being at risk of homelessness.
• Record numbers of households in Temporary Accommodation (over 698 at any one
point in time)
• Sustained increases in the number of people seen rough sleeping on a single night
• Sustained increases in the number of people receiving a Section 21, no-fault eviction.
• A changing migration/asylum landscape, with the accelerated asylum decision-making
process creating additional rough sleeping pressures across all 12 boroughs.

description: Background: YPO had an IT Strategy based around the Microsoft technology stack. At the end of 2014, YPO initiated a feasibility study to ascertain and document YPO’s requirements of an ERP system and to test those requirements against Microsoft’s Dynamics NAV 2016.  A key deliverable of that project was a solution recommendation from a third party ERP consultancy, who undertook a thorough analysis of YPO’s detailed requirements and tested those requirements against the out of the box and potential development functionality of Microsoft’s Dynamics NAV 2016.

rationale: Need for additional works, services or supplies by the original contractor/concessionaire: YPO has taken a decision to modify this contract due to criticality of the system and dependence of daily operations on the system. Incumbent supplier has an in-depth knowledge of the system, its exiting application and YPO processes, including the custom code that needs to be re-written. The code has been originally written by the incumbent supplier and changing the provider poses significant risk to YPO in terms of system stability and support, threatening  the continuity of daily operations not to mention the duplication of work and costs.

description:
Following the successful implementation of Business Central Phase 1, YPO are implementing Phase 2, which involves work to rewrite the code that was added to the core application within the system since go live. YPO estimate that there are over 700 days' worth of customised code to rewrite, and this is required for YPO to be able to upgrade the core application further. Current customisation is not compatible with the latest versions of Business Central. The code rewrite is estimated to take approximately 24 months. Functionality of the system remains the same, the rewrite is like-for-like. This will help YPO identify issues, test functionality, and also lessens the impact on users and reduces risk to the business operations and customers. Following the rewrite YPO will then upgrade to the latest version of Business Central. YPO stipulated in the initial tender documentation that throughout the development process requests for change (RFC's) will occur. Any additional developments which are NOT covered
in the original specification/requirements will go through the RFC process. Therefore, such development is within the scope of the contract.
YPO acknowledge that the costs incurred with Phase 2 rollout fall outside of the initial anticipated contract value, however these additional costs are within limits of regulation 72 of PCR 2015. The total contract value increase was calculated up to be up to 41% of the original contract value.

periodRationale: Term: The contract covers period from 3rd January 2017 to 2nd January 2022, with an option to extend for a further period of up to 5 years; a potential maximum period of 10 years in total (subject to an annual review, incorporating price negotiations and review of performance against KPI's.)

reviewDetails:
The authority will incorporate a minimum 10 calendar day standstill period at the point information on the award of the contract is communicated to tenderer. This period allows public to seek further information from the contracting authority before the contract is entered into.
Such additional information should be requested from the addressee found in I.1. If an appeal regarding the award of a contract has not been successfully resolved the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (SI 2015 No 102) provide for aggrieved parties who have been harmed or are at risk of harm by a breach of the rules to take action in the High Court (England, Wales and Northern Ireland). Any such action must be brought promptly (within 30 days beginning with the date when the economic operator first knew or ought to have known that grounds for such action had arisen).
Where a contract has not been entered into the court may order the setting aside of the award decision or order the authority to amend any document and may award damages. Following the correct implementation of a 10 day standstill period and publication of appropriate notices the court may only award damages once the contract has been entered into.

description: Health and social work services

procurementMethodRationale:
32 (2) The negotiated procedure without prior publication may be used for public works contracts, public supply contracts and public service contracts in any of the following cases:-
(b) where the works, supplies or services can be supplied only by a particular economic operator for any of the following reasons:-
(ii) competition is absent for technical reasons,...
but only, in the case of paragraph (ii)..., 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 services are delivered at sites at which LCC holds nomination rights. Both sites are owned and operated by MHA with LCC's access to the sites being through nominations agreements which permit LCC to place people into apartments covered by these services.
The nomination agreements as written see the level of access drop from 100% of the identified apartments to 75% of identified apartments, with the onsite provision covering both the apartments LCC has access to as well as the apartments outside of this access. This is even more pertinent as the 75% nomination rights are abided by moving forward.
Current and future service users will have the choice to opt out of receiving planned care from the on-site provider delivering care at each scheme. Applying unfettered choice and control to the onsite 24/7 staffing is impractical and not viable but is also not funded by LCC.
At both schemes the existing tenants have opted to receive any planned care and support from MHA as the on-site provider as part of their ability to utilise their personal choice in respect of their care and support provider. This approach will ensure MHA remain a care provider option as a part of that choice.
No conflict of interests were identified throughout the process.
