As a Public Corporation, OS is committed to achieving Net Zero by 2050 in light with UK Government. OS is also investigating the potential to advance this target date and is seeking to understand what that would look like with respect to earlier offsetting of residual emissions which cannot be further reduced at that time. OS wants to understand what the carbon offsetting market currently looks like, the opportunities for investment, and how integrity and risk management can be achieved.
OS are interested in understanding two options for the purchase of carbon credits. Firstly, via direct investment into a carbon offset project, and secondly by contracting with a Managed Service Provider (henceforth denoted MSP). An MSP would have the role of sourcing and managing compliance, risk and integrity of carbon credits on behalf of OS. We are open to understanding more about what this contracted service would look like.

Surrey County Council is committed to sourcing sustainable, safe, secure, and reliable local bus routes that are socially necessary, as defined by the Transport Acts 1985 and 2000.
Since the deregulation of bus services in 1986, the responsibility for providing local bus services has primarily rested with the commercial sector. However, bus operators typically offer only commercially viable services. When services are deemed socially necessary by a Local Authority (LA) and require funding support, it becomes the LA's obligation to secure such services through a tendering process.
Socially necessary bus routes funded by Surrey County Council serve communities across Surrey, providing essential services that enable residents to access employment, education, essential shopping, reduce social isolation, and attend routine medical appointments.

A system to support automation and standardisation of the research ethics process.
Five year contract £181,421

procurementMethod: direct

procurementMethodDetails: Direct award

procurementMethodRationale:
The public contract concerns the supply of goods, services or works by the existing supplier which are intended as an extension to, or partial replacement of, existing goods, services or works in circumstances where-
(a)a change in supplier would result in the contracting authority receiving goods, services or works that are different from, or incompatible with, the existing goods, services or works, and
(b)the difference or incompatibility would result in disproportionate technical difficulties in operation or maintenance.
Worktribe is already in use and therefore already integrated with key systems such as Staff Connect and UBW which will significantly reduce implementation costs. Ongoing maintenance costs in the form of staff time will also be minimised by consolidating systems. Ethics details can be linked to information on funded projects stored in the pre-award module.

description: Tender notice on Find a Tender

features:
This Procurement is being run under a multi-stage Competitive Flexible procedure pursuant to section 20(2)(b) of the Procurement Act 2023 ('the Act') to establish a single supplier Framework, not divided into Lots. NEPO intends to follow the process set out below in this Procurement:
Invitation to Participate (ITP)
Full details relating to this stage of the procurement process can be found in the ITP document, which can be accessed in the Procurement Documents.
The first stage is the submission of a Procurement Specific Questionnaire (PSQ).
The evaluation criteria and methodology that will be applied to assess the PSQ are set out in the Scoring Matrix.
Following submission of the PSQ, NEPO will review each Supplier's Conditions of Participation response to determine whether the Conditions of Participation are satisfied. Where NEPO has determined that one or more Conditions of Participation are not met, NEPO reserves the right to exclude that organisation from further participation in the Procurement. NEPO will then shortlist a maximum of five (5) suppliers who will be Invited to Continue in the process.
In order to successfully satisfy the Conditions of Participation of this procurement, Suppliers must:
- Provide all requested information.
- Meet all mandatory requirements pass/fail questions.
- Respond to all discretionary requirements.
- Pass / Meet an overall minimum score of [2] for each of the assessed elements. This comprises Part 3D (Technical and Professional Ability) and covers questions 3D.1-3D.6.
Once assessment information is provided, NEPO will enter into a voluntary standstill period of at least 8 working days (beginning with the date of despatch of outcome notifications).
Invitation to Continue (ITC)
At this stage, NEPO will issue an ITC setting out requirements for Initial Tender submissions. This stage may include dialogue with shortlisted Suppliers on any element of the procurement. As part of dialogue, NEPO may refine its Procurement Documents, such refinement will depend on Supplier feedback and as such, cannot be specified at this stage. NEPO may also refine its award criteria at this stage, any refinement of award criteria will be complete before inviting final tenders. Following the conclusion of any dialogue, NEPO will declare the dialogue stage to be concluded and issue an Invitation to Submit Final Tenders (ISFT) to Suppliers.
Invitation to Submit Final Tenders (ISFT)
Final Tenders should be based on the solution(s) presented and specified at the close of ITC stage. Tenderers should note that the evaluation of Final Tenders will include a System Demonstration from each Tenderer.  Details regarding the System Demonstration can be found in the ITP. Full details regarding System Demonstrations will be provided in the ISFT. NEPO reserves the right to refine the evaluation criteria that will apply to the final tenders and these will be specified in the ISFT.
Final Tenders are expected to be final, however, NEPO may request Tenderers to clarify, specify or optimise their Final Tenders. Such clarification, specification or optimisation, or any additional information, may not involve changes to the essential aspects of the Final Tender or the requirements of the Procurement.
Following submission of Final Tenders, NEPO expects to undertake an evaluation process to identify which Tenderer has submitted the Most Advantageous Tender. Full information regarding the evaluation process for Final Tenders will be provided in the ISFT.
NEPO reserves the right to vary the procedure and timeframes of the Procurement as set out in this Notice and associated Procurement Documents. Reasons for this may include, but are not limited to, supporting continued competition, avoiding unnecessary bidding cost and adhering to subsequent technical or legal guidance.
The opportunity can be accessed via the NEPO eTender system. Suppliers wishing to be considered for this Framework must register their expression of interest and submit the PSQ and subsequent tender response(s) through the Open eTendering System. Responses submitted via postal or email methods will not be accepted.

description:
The successful tenderer will enter into a Framework Contract (NEPRO x Innovation) with NEPO. The Framework will be accessible to Contracting Authorities through a Call-Off Contract. NEPO will establish overarching Framework terms and conditions which will govern the relationship between NEPO and the Delivery Partner, stipulating the core terms encapsulating the Managed Service. NEPO will also establish a Call-Off Contract which will govern the relationship between the Contracting Authority and the Delivery Partner, focusing on the Managed Service provided by the Delivery Partner.
The Delivery Partner will be responsible for managing a perpetual supply chain of Providers, capable of delivering projects covering goods, works, services and technology. The Delivery Partner will manage access to its supply chain via a Supplier Agreement.
When a Contracting Authority with an active Call-Off identifies a need that can be fulfilled through the Framework, they will enter into a Work Order with the Delivery Partner. The Work Order will include Core Terms, established at Framework level governing common elements in every project and specifying the Delivery Partner's role in ensuring the successful delivery of the project. Project-specific terms and conditions will thereafter be incorporated by the Delivery Partner, in agreement with the Contracting Authority. The Delivery Partner will be responsible for ensuring that the appropriate terms and conditions are incorporated to sufficiently protect the Contracting Authority based on their bespoke requirements. The Delivery Partner will provide these terms and conditions at their own cost.
Following the Award Process, the Delivery Partner will be responsible for flowing down the key terms of the Work Order, to a Sub-Contract. The Sub-Contract will be entered into by the Neutral Vendor and the Project Provider(s).

buyerCategories:
NEPO is a Centralised Procurement Authority as defined in the Procurement Act 2023 (PA23), providing central purchasing activity on behalf of Contracting Authorities.
The agreement will be available to NEPO Member Authorities and all current and future Associate Members. Current Associate Members are listed in the Associate Member section of the NEPO website at: https://www.nepo.org/associate-members
NEPO intends to make the agreement available for use by all Contracting Authorities throughout all administrative regions of the UK (as defined by the Procurement Act 2023).
A  list of permissible users available at: http://www.nepo.org/associate-membership/permissible-users
Organisations wishing to access the NEPO agreement will be required to register as a NEPO Associate Member in the first instance. Further information can be found at: www.nepo.org
Further and full information regarding Contracting Authorities that may use the agreement can be found in the Procurement Documents.

periodRationale:
The Framework term may exceed 4 years up to a further 2 x 24-month periods.  In accordance with section 47(2) of the Procurement Act, NEPO considers that the nature of the services, goods, works and technology provided under the Framework requires a solution that will operate for a longer duration. NEPO considers the longer term is necessary due to the following:
•	Complexity of the Framework
•	Resource required to procure the Framework
•	Complexity and value of projects procured under the Framework, which may span numerous years.
•	The investment required from the Delivery Partner to implement the Framework including developing and implementing terms and conditions, mobilising a supply chain, developing innovative procurement processes and documentation and mobilising a technology platform.
Prior to exercising any extension, NEPO will ensure the Delivery Partner has achieved pre-agreed targets, which will be determined and fixed prior to contract commencement.

description:
NEPO seeks to establish a Closed Framework which will operate as a Neutral Vendor Managed Service; NEPRO x Innovation. The objective of this procurement is to provide Contracting Authorities with access to a single Supplier (the Delivery Partner) who will provide a managed service for the delivery of services, goods, works and technology.
NEPRO x Innovation is a new Framework for NEPO. As a strategic procurement solution, the Framework will fall under NEPO's 'NEPRO' brand. NEPRO provides outcomes-based frameworks offering an end-to-end procurement solution for the public sector.
The Delivery Partner will adopt a Managed Service for the delivery of projects in the following areas:
•	Goods
•	Works
•	Services
•	Technology
A single project may include more than one of the above. The Delivery Partner will be able to flexibly deliver projects incorporating all areas, to suit Contracting Authorities' bespoke requirements.
NEPO expects the typical value of projects being delivered under the Framework, will be at £25k and above. There will be no maximum project value.
For the avoidance of doubt, the Delivery Partner will not provide services, goods, works and technology in its own right, but rather will deliver a Managed Service that allows Contracting Authorities to procure these elements.
The Delivery Partner is to bring together the bespoke requirements of Contracting Authorities and a perpetual Supply Chain capable of meeting those requirements. Equal importance is to be placed on the service provided to Contracting
Authorities and the management of the Supply Chain delivering the requirements.
Through market-led, Outcome-based pricing, the Delivery Partner will provide a 'one stop shop' for all in scope goods, services, technology and works and will have a positive impact at every stage of the delivery. The Delivery Partner will act as a single point interface between the Contracting Authority and the Supply Chain.
The Delivery Partner will be required to accommodate the bespoke needs of each Contracting Authority in each project. This will require the ability to flexibly deliver goods, works, services and technology contracts and offer innovative and/or bespoke procurement processes.

description:
Under the Framework, the Delivery Partner will provide a Managed Service. The Managed Service Fee will be the fee charged by the Delivery Partner for all projects under the Framework. The Managed Service Fee will be based on the total Project cost approved and accepted by the Contracting Authority for any given Project and corresponding Work Order and Sub-Contract.  The fee will be in accordance with that which is tendered, however should not exceed 5%. Further information regarding NEPO's intended approach to the Managed Service Fee is provided in the Invitation to Participate Documents.
NEPO operates a contract rebate arrangement whereby Suppliers are asked to repay NEPO a set percentage of each invoice in respect of orders placed by NEPO or any Contracting Authority accessing the Framework. NEPO proposes this will be one fifth (20%) of the Managed Service Fee. Therefore, the maximum rebate taken by NEPO against the value of awarded contracts will not exceed 1%.

description: Preliminary market engagement notice on Find a Tender

status: met

description:
This notice has been created in retrospect as the original preliminary market engagement activities were scheduled prior to the Procurement Act 2023 commencement date and the ability to produce this notice was not yet available. The original notice can be found here: https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/002475-2025?origin=SearchResults&p=1
NEPO sent out a Prior Information Notice on 24th January 2025 with the following information:
"NEPO seeks to establish a Framework for provision of goods, works, services and technology ("NEPRO x Innovation"). It is envisaged NEPRO x Innovation will operate as a Neutral Vendor Managed Service vehicle.
The purpose of the prior information notice (PIN) is to provide advance notice to the marketplace for the future opportunity and the intentions of NEPO to hold market engagement meetings with suppliers to help shape the future Framework. NEPO are not advertising this PIN as a mechanism to reduce future procurement timescales. The market engagement meetings are advertised openly via this PIN but are limited to a particular number. Market engagement meetings will take place between Tuesday 18th February and Friday 21st February.
The "Market Consultation Questionnaire" (market engagement invite) will be made accessible via the Open e-tendering system on Friday 24th January 2025 with a submission deadline of 5 p.m. Friday 7th February 2025.
Suppliers wishing to access and complete the "Market Consultation Questionnaire" (Market engagement invite) must first register on the e-tendering system using the following link https://www.open-uk.org.(https://www.open-uk.org).
Within the Questionnaire, Suppliers will be given the opportunity to register for a market engagement meeting by directly emailing NEPRO to select two meeting dates highlighting their preferred choice.
Market engagement meetings are limited in number and will take place the week commencing Monday 17th February 2025. Appointments will be no longer than 150 mins. NEPO intends to conduct these sessions in person in Gateshead, Tyne and Wear. In-person meetings will be determined via correspondence but are expected to take place at NEPO's offices. The time and location of each appointment will be confirmed following the registration deadline. NEPO may, by exception, use its discretion to facilitate online meetings in the event that in-person meetings are not feasible for suppliers. Places will be secured on a first-come, first-serve basis via directly emailing NEPRO to select two meeting dates highlighting their preferred choice.
Suppliers wishing to attend the market engagement meetings should be capable of meeting the requirements outlined above.
NEPO reserves the right to seek assurances from interested suppliers prior to allocating a place. Attendance at the market engagement is optional and does not provide suppliers with an advantage in any future related procurement. Attendance also does not constitute as an intention to tender for any future related procurement, nor does the meeting location.
Please note the above dates may be subject to change depending on availability and supplier uptake. In addition to the market engagement meetings, NEPO may also publish a soft market testing questionnaire via our Open E-Procurement system. Should this be issued, the questionnaire will allow a further opportunity for those suppliers unable to attend the market consultation meetings to contribute towards shaping the future NEPO535 Framework design. Should the questionnaire be issued, this will be published through Open for access and completion."
All those who attended preliminary market engagement sessions were either in attendance in-person at NEPO offices or via an arranged Microsoft Teams call online. All clarifications were made available on our Open E-procurement system ('Open').
Preliminary market engagement was restricted to six face-to-face sessions allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. Due to the high interest in the preliminary market engagement sessions, NEPO allocated an additional six online sessions. To facilitate the additional sessions, NEPO needed to shorten the online sessions to 75 minutes. The same information was disseminated in both the face-to-face and online sessions.
As a result, NEPO engaged in four 150-minute face-to-face preliminary market engagement sessions and two 75-minute online sessions. These took place between 18th February and 24th February 2025.
To ensure the preliminary market engagement was sufficiently robust, NEPO also issued a Preliminary Market Engagement Questionnaire on 28th February 2025 via Open. This allowed NEPO to obtain wider feedback and assess the appetite and capability of the market. NEPO issued the presentation slides from the preliminary market engagement sessions with this questionnaire, to ensure transparency and to ensure that no distortion of competition and no unfair advantage was gained by those able to attend market engagement. Within the questionnaire, NEPO sought feedback on: pricing, rebate, contract value and term, contract governance and terms and conditions, financial appraisal and insurances.
The deadline for submitting the preliminary market engagement exercise was 10th March 2025 concluding the preliminary market engagement period.
A copy of the preliminary market engagement presentation slides, clarifications and a summary of NEPO's findings from preliminary market engagement can be provided by NEPO. Please contact us to request these documents via the following email address: nepro@nepo.org

title: Contract for the provision of Debt Collection Services

description:
The Home Office seeks a commercial partner(s) for the provision of debt collections services. Debt owed to the Authority (the Home Office) arises in a number of ways: through non-payment or late payment of invoices, fines and penalties, licence fees and other charges, or from the failure of individuals to repay loans. Individuals and organisations may reside within the UK or overseas.
The Home Office has in the past established debt management and collections service suppliers for debt recovery services in respect of its aged debt. Such services include the handling of court recovery procedures on behalf of the Home Office and the provision of other debt recovery services to facilitate the recovery of both invoiced and other forms of debt, and to reduce the average debtor payment time.
The content of this Notice, including the nature of works and services including start date of contract, may be the subject to change.
The contract is expected to commence in December 2025 and is expected to be in place until December 2028.

title: Supported Accommodation for 16 - 18 Year Olds

description:
The Purpose of preliminary market engagement is to advise and engage with the Market prior to going to tender for the provision of Accommodation Services for 16 - 18-year-olds.  Therefore, the Council is holding a supplier event on Thursday 20 March 2025 at 14:00 Hours at Ty Penallta, Tredomen Park, Ystrad Mynach, Hengoed CF82 7PG. To register an interest Service Providers must send their request via email to procurement@caerphilly.gov.uk.  All requests must be received by 15:00 hours Wednesday 19 March 2025.
Caerphilly CBC have sourced a suitable property located in the Newbridge area within Caerphilly Borough to accommodate young people aged 16-18 years. The Council shall require a support service for the young people based in the accommodation. The Council intends to visit the market for a 24-hour support service for the young people placed within the accommodation and this notice is to commence market engagement prior to going to tender to understand services available to the Council. Please note that this notice is not a contract notice for a call for competition, it is to advise the market of the Councils intension to visit the market for such a service. The aim of the service provision is for young people to be supported and to prepare them for living independently in shared accommodation. The Council shall require the property to be staffed and available to provide support to the individuals 24/7. All young people will be required to comply with strict terms and conditions and clear house rules that include a requirement to engage with the provision of support and comply with the house rules. It is envisaged that each young person will be allocated a key worker to provide one to one support and be responsible for goal plan setting, outcomes monitoring and developing a resettlement plan. This could range from: managing their own safety, managing their tenancy, managing their finances, training & education and seek support from informal support networks i.e. family, friends, and social interests. It is envisaged that the service provider will also be able to access other support staff to ensure that their needs are met as required. The project shall be staffed 24 hours a day and 365 days a year, this is inclusive of night staff. Full details of a service specification shall be issued with the call for competition and fully detailed in the tender documents. The home has 3 levels which will assist the growing demand of young people requiring support and care. The home will allow the Council to accommodate up to 6 people with up to 2 staff on site at all times. The separate annex will also allow between 1-2 young people who are more independent, which will be seen as more of an independent provision and a step closer to reaching their own tenancy. All the young people that the Council supports have experienced multiple adverse childhood experiences, and the council hope that this provision will positively impact on future life trajectories. The council aims to create a psychologically informed environment and provide staff who are PACE trained, and trauma informed. The contract commencement date is estimated to be 01 September 2025 for a period of four (4) years with the option to extend for up to a further period of two (2) years. The dates are indicative, and the actual dates will be advertised in the tender documentation.

title: PS25037 - Appointment of Administrators for Innovate UK Loans

description: Amendment to planned Tender notice release date, award timescales and contact email address for further information.

description:
This notice is to inform the market of intention to Procure the Appointment of Administrators for Innovate UK Loans.
At present the Innovate UK loan portfolio consists of around 260 businesses with an overall exposure of £219m. Due to the early-stage nature of the businesses in the portfolio the expectation is that a considerable number will not be successful in achieving their objectives and will ultimately be unable to repay their innovation loan as planned. If a company is in debt and cannot pay the money that it owes it will typically be placed into administration. To facilitate this process there will be an appointment of an administrator either by the directors, a creditor or the court to fulfil the administration process.
This procurement is to address the requirement in some cases for Innovate UK Loans to appoint an administrator and to have an existing contract in place which can be utilised when required.
The administrators should be licensed insolvency practitioners based within the UK. Their duties that are required are those of an administrator for any insolvency and as per set out in the Insolvency Act, 1986.
There is no commitment at this stage that the above-mentioned opportunity will proceed in its current format however at this stage, and subject to the relevant approvals this is the intention.
