The Contract will be split into three lots:
 Lot 1: General Building
 Lot 2: Plumbing
 Lot 3. Electrical
 Tenderers are invited to submit options that they feel would offer innovative solutions that provide (and can demonstrate) industry best practice and value for money, whilst ensuring they meet the requirements of delivering the Contract.
 Tai Tarian is keen to consider proposals from Tenderers who can offer the service from existing or newly developed premises, provided that an equally dedicated responsive service will be provided.
 There are currently five internal teams delivering a mixture of reactive and planned work, all of which will utilise this contract
 This requirement is expected to be achieved by delivering a van stock management and replenishment service to thirty vehicles across the three lots, as well as direct delivery of materials to customer’s homes, vacant properties or site in advance of the trades arriving to undertake the work. Provision of a collection facility is also required; however, it is expected that successful suppliers work with Tai Tarian and its customers to maximise direct deliveries and efficient management of van stocks so reducing counter collected orders.
 An organisational commitment has been made to achieve carbon neutrality by 2030. The current focus is on operational energy and fuel, with efficiency being the driver in the near term, with use of more environmentally friendly products, cleaner energy and fuels to follow. Tenderers should demonstrate their own commitments to the environmental challenges and carbon reduction in the way it is intended to run and manage this contract.

LHC Procurement Group Limited is a not for profit central purchasing body acting on behalf of contracting authorities throughout Wales, England and Scotland (including partners of the Welsh Procurement Alliance) for whom we continue to monitor up to 500 live projects at any time. Thanks to their ongoing and collective feedback and input into the development of this framework and given the reach and scale of their collective portfolios, the framework is anticipated to support the vast majority of requirements. Consequently, other contracting authorities that were not specifically consulted in the development of this framework may deem the framework to offer a value for money procurement solution for their own requirements and may use the framework.
 Welsh Procurement Alliance members now manage around 98% of Welsh social housing and WPA anticipate that the majority of works procured through the framework will be in the social housing sector.
 As of the date of publication of this notice our frameworks may be used by all contracting authorities in Wales, England and Scotland as defined by the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 and as listed on:
 https://www.welshprocurement.cymru/who-we-work-with/
 including, but not limited to Registered social landlords (RSL's), tenant management organisations (TMOs) and arm’s length management organisations (ALMOs), local authorities and any subsidiaries and joint-venture vehicles of those local authorities, health authorities, councils, boards and trusts, publicly funded schools, universities and further education establishments, colleges, police forces, fire and rescue services or registered charities. WPA partners may add community benefit requirements in their call-off contracts from this Framework including but not limited to:
 - to generate employment and training opportunities for priority groups;
 - vocational training;
 - to up-skill the existing workforce;
 - equality and diversity initiatives;
 - to make sub-contracting opportunities available to SMEs, the third sector and supported businesses;
 - supply-chain development activity;
 - to build capacity in community organisations;
 - educational support initiatives

awardCriteriaDetails:
The Framework Agreement is to be divided into fourteen (14) lots. There are restrictions on the number of lots that a Potential Provider can be awarded. Potential Providers may bid for up to 4 lots between lots 1-9. If you are bidding for any lots 7-9 you cannot bid for any of lots 1-3.
 If you are bidding for Lot 12, you can only apply for either Lot 12a or 12b.

periodRationale: The Authority is seeking a long-term collaborative relationship with framework contractors to deliver innovation efficiency & continuous improvement. Due to the length of time for projects to come to fruition 4 years is unlikely to be sufficient to realise benefits collate data improve behaviours to justify the resources invested by the Authority & contractors in building & managing relationships

description: Provision of a highly specialised, critical Forensic Pathology Service to South Wales Police, Gwent Police, Dyfed-Powys Police and Gloucestershire Constabulary as part of a joint service to the four police forces in areas of post-mortem and the interpretation of injury, including generation of reports, assistance in legal enquiries, court and other proceedings.

procurementMethodRationale:
South Wales Police and Gwent Police intend to award a contract to Cardiff University for the supply of a Forensic Pathology Service. This service is required by the forces of South Wales, Gwent, Dyfed-Powys and Gloucestershire to be provided by pathologists of suitable status, experience and qualifications. The service is currently provided by Cardiff University which hosts the Wales Institute of Forensic Medicine (WIFM). The WIFM is a 'School of Medicine' based unit, providing highly specialised, critical services to the police, coroners and the public in areas of post-mortem examination and interpretation of injury. It is relatively unique in conducting additional work to the post-mortem, known as 'sub-speciality' and includes areas of specific expertise in relation to examination of parts of the human body such as neuropathology, bone pathology and paediatric pathology.
 Scoping work undertaken with forensic pathology consortia established across the UK to identify another host for the WIFM failed to find a party willing to take over the service. This is primarily due to the highly specialised service - there is a dearth of expertise across the UK in this highly skilled area and to obtain a Home Office licence to provide forensic pathology services to a police force, there must be a minimum of three qualified Home Office pathologists affiliated to a consortium; the size of the demand and geographical area and the alignment of Cardiff University with the University Hospital of Wales and its mortuary and laboratory capability.
 Other forensic pathology consortia established around the UK provide a service to several forces and coronial areas and are generally location based. We approached the South West consortium during early scoping as the closest consortia to the WIFM but it has no appetite to take on the additional areas.
 Therefore, the only economic operator able to supply the service is Cardiff University. Competition is absent for technical reasons due to the specialised service, scarcity of expertise, Home Office requirements and the level of demand across the area.
