The Scottish Parliamentary Corporate Body (SPCB) require a Contractor to provide, host, maintain and support an online Lobbying Register System.
 The “Lobbying Register” is an online, multi-functional workflow, database, and website system, used to manage the statutory duty and requirements placed on the Parliament, by The Lobbying (Scotland) Act 2016. The whole process is managed and administered by the Parliament’s Lobbying Register Team (“LRT”).
 In 2016 the Parliament passed legislation, the Lobbying (Scotland) Act 2016 (‘the Act’), to regulate certain types of lobbying. Those engaged in regulated lobbying use the Lobbying Register to provide information on who they have lobbied, when and where it happened and what the purpose of the lobbying was.
 The resulting information provides a valuable insight into how lobbyists inform, and influence decisions made by MSPs, and policies developed by Ministers and Special Advisers.
 As such, the Register has become a key tool for increasing understanding about lobbying activity taking place in Scotland, and improved public accountability and scrutiny.
 The System must be able to provide and include the following functionality:
 - allow lobbyists to register and to submit returns directly, minimising data input by SPS staff.
 - ensure SPS staff have control of the data – performing quality control/verification of entries prior to publication.
 - be intuitive to use in keeping with contemporary web-based services.
 - a search facility.
 - facility for people to report incorrect information.
 - options to alert MSPs and Public Officials automatically when their name appears in a lobbying return.
 - options to send reminders to registrants.
 - facility to communicate with registrants about things like incomplete or inaccurate data.
 - capable of amendment to respond to changes in the lobbying regime such as changes introduced through primary and secondary legislation and parliamentary guidance.
 - ensure the data held in the System will be capable of publication as open data in keeping with our existing approach and seeking to achieve a 5-star open data standard https://data.parliament.scot/#/home.
 - be compliant with all data protection requirements including the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and Data Protection Act 2018.
 - compliant with Level AA of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) version 2.2, as a minimum.
 - be a fully responsive design, accessible to registrants and those searching data on desktop computers and devices with smaller screens e.g. smart phones or other portable devices.
 - system automations and workflows which build on existing team processes and website functionality.
 - an integrated communication tool with SharePoint online and in line with The Scottish Parliament’s Records Management policy.
 - infographics or similar for searches, expanded parameters, and increased reporting output methods.
 - analytics on system use, to help measure impact and public use.
 - a pre-submission template for returns by registrants.
 - an algorithm to check key text in draft returns, which are also created with the use of AI software.
 - a context menu.
 The Contractor will be responsible for the full implementation and hosting of the System including configuration, testing and SPCB staff training.
 Draft Specification documents can be accessed via the PCS-Tender system for further information on this requirement. Please note that these documents are not yet finalised and are subject to change.. An indicative budget for this project is as follows:
 - Full System implementation and set up (including project management, system configuration/development/testing and training) - up to GBP 300,000 (ex VAT)
 - Ongoing annual costs (including hosting, licensing, maintenance, support and upgrades) - GBP 50,000 - 75,000 p.a. (ex VAT)

SPD question 4B.1 to 4B.4: not required
 SPD question 4B.6: The Scottish Parliamentary Corporate Body (SPCB) uses Creditsafe, an independent provider of online business credit reports, to assess the financial standing of bidders. We recommend bidders review its financial performance on Creditsafe to understand their score rating which will be used by the SPCB to review the financial standing of bidders and that they read the information about how that data is collected and used prior to submitting a SPD.
 Information and the opportunity to run a free report can be found at https://www.creditsafe.com/gb/en.html
 The SPCB requires bidders to have a Creditsafe Risk Score of 40 or higher to demonstrate satisfactory financial standing. If a bidder has a lower credit risk score than 40 on Creditsafe and has the backing of a parent company with a credit risk score of 40 or higher, then the provision of a parent company guarantee will be required prior to the award of any contract.
 If a bidder has a lower credit risk score than 40 and cannot provide a parent company guarantee, they must submit evidence to support a stable and improved financial standing with their SPD or the SPD may be rejected. If no evidence is provided or the evidence provided is not sufficient to demonstrate a satisfactory financial position to the satisfaction of the SPCB (whose decision in this regard shall be final), then the SPD will be rejected and will not be evaluated further.
 If a bidder is not listed on Creditsafe, for whatever reason, then it will be asked to submit equivalent accounts to enable the required assessment of financial standing to be carried out. If the information provided does not, in the SPCB’s opinion, demonstrate a satisfactory financial position, the bid may be rejected.

minimum: It is mandatory that suppliers hold a suitable third party Cyber Security accreditation e.g. Cyber Essentials, Cyber Essentials Plus, ISO 27001:2013, IASME Gold or are able to provide evidence of equivalency.

description:
The City of Edinburgh Council (the Council) is seeking to appoint a Development Partner to take forward a development opportunity at Liberton, Edinburgh.
 The Development Partner will be required to:
 - Deliver a mixed tenure scheme of around 388 homes (including private, social rent and mid-market rent) to the Council’s design guidance within timescales approved during the pre-development period including the refurbishment or façade retention of the Edwardian Hospital;
 - Deliver commercial or community space with active frontages at appropriate ground floor locations throughout;
 - Deliver high quality public realm of adoptable standard throughout the site, including the reinstatement of the Victorian Garden;
 - Deliver high quality transport and active travel options throughout the site;
 - Delivery of a low carbon energy solution
 - Maintain and enhance community engagement and support consultation.
 The residential development must comply with the principle of tenure blind development. The Development Partner will be required to pay a price to the Council for the private residential development opportunities. The capital receipt will be agreed during the pre-development period, however, a viable development is mandatory to allow progression to the Development Agreement stage. To ensure that the Council is entering into a Pre-Development Contract which has a high likelihood of project viability, the Council may seek to assess a capital receipt offering at the Invitation to Tender stage. The profits from this development will be retained by the Development Partner, although an overage agreement will be put in place covering exceptional profits.

title: Development Partner Opportunity at Liberton, Edinburgh

description:
The City of Edinburgh Council (the Council) has purchased the Liberton Hospital site, located in the South East locality on the intersection of Lasswade Road and Ellen’s Glen Road, from NHS Lothian.
 The site is approximately 6.5 hectares (4.2 net developable area) in size.
 The ambition for the development is to deliver a mixed-use development with around 388 homes, around half of which will be affordable homes, owned by the Council, some of which will be aimed at providing a home with specialist support for older people or those with accessibility needs. The development also includes a requirement to refurbish or retain the façade of the old Edwardian Liberton hospital building and assess the viability of retaining the 1960s hospital building.
 The Council is seeking to procure a Development Partner with the necessary skills, experience and capacity to deliver an exemplar development. This opportunity to work with the Council, initially over an 18-month period as part of a two stage Pre-Development contract has been devised as part of the Council’s procurement strategy to reduce the burden of tendering as much as possible on Candidates and to encourage collaboration, innovation, risk apportionment, and partnership between the Council and the Development Partner prior to entering into a Development Agreement.
 As a Candidate, you will be experienced and capable of delivering complex regeneration and mixed tenure development projects of similar scale and nature. Your team will be multi-disciplinary and consist of the Development Partner, full design team services, construction contractors and specialist expertise in areas such as sustainability and modern methods of construction. You will identify opportunities for working with the local community and Small to Medium Enterprises (SMEs), creating new jobs and stimulating the local economy.
 The gross development value is projected at GBO90million - GBP120million.

name: Orkney Islands Council (Harbour Authority)

description: Bidders have the option to bid for Phase 2 of the project subject to availability of external funding. For the avoidance of doubt the contract value as stated at 11.2.6 is for Part A and Part B of the project only.

description:
Orkney Islands Council (“the Council”) has a requirement for a specialist consultancy to undertake Part A: Ferry Replacement Programme and Part B: Orkney Harbours Masterplan (Phase 2), which collectively constitute this commission. The inter-relationship of the lifeline ferry services, and the piers and harbours mean that Part A and Part B are best progressed in tandem, although it is recognised that each will have a number of discrete tasks.
 The Council welcomes innovation in how Part A and Part B can be best interweaved across the study programme to deliver the best outputs in the most efficient and cohesive manner, both from a community / user perspective and for the Council. There are however some pressing deadlines associated with the Ferry Replacement Programme of works so this must be seen as priority when completing the programme of works.
 To deliver these requirements the following broad tasks are proposed as an outline method that could be adopted and developed upon.
 The purpose of the study is as follows:
 Part A: Ferry Replacement Programme Management Case will comprise the necessary considerations from a naval architect and civil/marine infrastructure perspective to ensure the ferry replacement programme can be optimally guided to deliver on its stated objectives, which are set out through a set of Transport Planning Objectives and Critical Success Factors to guide the Business Case development. As part of the ongoing review of the Strategic Business Case spending objectives have also been reviewed. The Ferry Replacement Programme seeks to procure new assets and associated infrastructure within Orkney Islands Council’s wider remit, covering social, economic and environmental aspects. As such, tailored spending objectives for the project have also been set to guide development and inform the direction of the Part B of this study.

reviewDetails:
Precise information on deadline(s) for review procedures:
 The authority will notify economic operators who submitted a tender or (where no deselection notification has previously been made)
 applied to be selected to tender, of its decision to award the framework agreement which notification will contain among other information,
 a summary of the reasons why the economic operator was unsuccessful. The notification will incorporate a ‘standstill period’ of a
 minimum of 10 clear calendar days (or a minimum of 15 if the communication method used is not electronic) between the date on which
 the authority despatches the notice(s) and the date on which the authority proposes to conclude the relevant framework agreement. The
 bringing of court proceedings against the authority during the standstill period will automatically continue the prohibition on entering into
 the framework agreement until the court proceedings are determined, discontinued or disposed of, or the court, by interim order, brings to
 an end the prohibition. The remedies that may be awarded by the courts before the framework agreement has been entered into include the
 setting aside of the decision to award the framework agreement to the winning tenderer(s). The bringing of court proceedings against the
 authority after the framework agreement has been entered into will not affect the framework agreement unless grounds for the imposition
 of special penalties under the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015 can be established. Otherwise the remedies that may be
 awarded by the courts where the framework agreement has been entered into are limited to the award of damages. Economic operators are
 entitled to write to the authority after receipt of the notification should they require further clarification. The authority will respond within
 15 days of such a written request, but it should be noted that receipt by the authority of such request during the standstill period may not
 prevent the authority from awarding the framework agreement following the expiry of the standstill period. Economic operators should
 approach the contracting authority in the first instance. However, the only formal remedy is to apply to the courts:
 An economic operator that suffers or is at risk of suffering, loss or damage attributable to a breach of duty under the Public
 Contracts(Scotland) Regulations 2015 or the Procurement Reform (Scotland) Act 2014, may bring proceedings in the Sheriff Court or the
 Court of Session.
