procurementMethodRationale: UoD are currently utilising systems that include integrations with the well-established supplier, WPM, who have been embedded with the student journey for the past 9 years. It is vital to ensure consistency for income collection and integrations ensuring applicants and students are not impacted, particularly as we are reliant on cashless processes as a direct result of COVID-19. Therefore, the decision was made to renew the contract with WPM for 3+2 years.

As part of the Government’s education recovery plan the Department have developed additional NPQs to ensure teachers and leaders have access to best possible training and support. These additional NPQs consist of qualifications in Leading Early Years education and in Leading Literacy. In addition, we will continue to consult with sector representatives to ensure that the suite of NPQs remain responsive to the needs of teachers and leaders and will include a mechanism to launch further NPQs via the Framework Agreement where required.
It is anticipated that lead providers will deliver their service in partnership with other high-quality education training providers including the national network of Teaching School Hubs. Teaching School Hubs, along with other delivery partners, play a key role in the delivery of the ECF and NPQs.
The Department recognises that lead providers might need to build their capacity and partnerships over the term of the Framework Agreement. We are therefore proposing to create the flexibility for lead providers to add new delivery partners once they are appointed to the framework.
It is anticipated that the Department will appoint successful bidders up to a six year national Framework Agreement. The precise scope of the framework is still under consideration.
More information on the procurement process will be provided during the market engagement activity which is taking place on the 6 and 7 October 2021. These events are anticipated to last between 1 and 2 hours. For details on how to register to attend, please use the Eventbrite links below.

title: Early Career Framework and National Professional Qualifications - September 2022 Market Engagement

description:
The purpose of this Prior Information Notice (PIN) is to notify the market of forthcoming market engagement events relating to the National Professional Qualifications (NPQs) and Early Career Framework (ECF). For the ECF, the Department is looking to appoint an additional lead provider. For the NPQs, the Department will be procuring providers to deliver the reformed suite of six NPQs; three focused on middle leadership for those who want to develop their expertise in specialist areas of teaching practice (Leading Teacher Development, Leading Teaching and Leading Behaviour and Culture) and three for senior leadership, headship and executive leadership. There will also be two new and additional NPQs focused on Early Years and Literacy.
The Department will be undertaking two online events on 6 and 7 October 2021 for potential suppliers that are interested in responding to the planned procurement for these programmes.
Delivering on the commitments set out in the Teacher Recruitment and Retention Strategy, the Department is creating a world-class teacher development system by transforming the training and support teachers and school leaders receive at every stage of their career.
The Department is fully funding the national roll-out of the ECF reforms from September 2021, giving all early career teachers access to a two-year package of structured training and support linked to the best available research evidence. Making sure new teachers receive excellent support at the start of their careers and embedding the early career reforms nationwide are vital elements of the Department’s education recovery strategy (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/teacher-recruitment-and-retention-strategy).
Procuring an additional ECF lead provider will expand the choice of high-quality early career teacher training programmes available to schools in their local area and will ensure the market remains sustainable and resilient so future early career teachers will continue to be able to access this high-quality support.
Beyond the first few years of teaching, our priority is to help all teachers and school leaders to continuously develop their expertise throughout their careers so every child in every classroom in every school gets the best start in life. We have replaced the existing Middle Leadership National Professional Qualification (NPQ) with three new specialist NPQs to best address the broad range of responsibilities of current and aspiring middle leaders. The new suite of specialist NPQs, which will be available for teachers and leaders from November 2021, consist of NPQs in Leading Teaching, Leading Behaviour and Culture, and Leading Teacher Development. The suite of reformed NPQs also includes refreshed school leadership programmes covering the knowledge and skills that school leaders need for the future. The frameworks for these qualifications can be found at https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/national-professional-qualifications-frameworks-from-september-2021 .

Functional health assessment providers support the payment of welfare benefits to some of the
most vulnerable in our society. Functional health assessments currently assess eligibility for
Employment and Support Allowance (ESA), Universal Credit (UC) and Personal Independence Payment
(PIP); focusing on needs arising from a condition rather than the condition itself. These assessments
are only one part of the evidence that the DWP Decision Maker will consider and decisions on
assessment criteria and benefit entitlement will rest with the DWP Decision Maker alone on behalf of
the Secretary of State.
PIP is a DWP benefit intended to compensate for some of the extra costs of those who have long
term ill-health or disabilities. It is available to people whether they are in work, training, education
or not, it is tax-free and is not means tested. PIP also acts as a gateway to other benefits and
support in both DWP administered benefits. Most notably, additional premia in ESA or Carer’s
Allowance and also wider services, including the Motability scheme and Local Authority services,
such as the Blue Badge Scheme. Approximately 900,000 assessments are carried out annually under
the current PIP contract (data from 2017/18).
Work Capability Assessments (WCA) currently assess eligibility for ESA and UC. A smaller number of
other assessments assess eligibility to a range of benefits delivered by DWP and other Government
Departments. Approximately 1 million WCA and a minimum of 100,000 other assessments are
carried out annually under the current Health Disability Assessment Services (HDAS) contract (data
from 2017/18).
HDAS and PIP assessment services are currently delivered through separate contracts by separate
suppliers. FAS will deliver both assessment services through one contract with a single supplier, in
each geographical Lot.
DWP will procure a Functional Assessment Service across England and Wales. We are currently working with colleagues in the Department for Communities in Northern Ireland to understand their future commercial requirements. The Department for Communities for Northern Ireland have confirmed Northern Ireland is in scope for these contracts. We will be procuring Work Capability Assessments and some other
assessments in Scotland, the Scottish government will take responsibility for administering a
replacement for PIP assessments from 2022.
We anticipate the use of geographical lotting and will share further details on the structure of these lots at a later date. We anticipate the use of 5 geographical Lots, Lots 1-4 in Great Britain and Lot 5 in Northern Ireland. Further details on the structure of the Lots will be made available during future market engagement.
Contract length and value to be confirmed in due course.Contract length is anticipated to be 5 years with the possibility of a 2-year extension and value will be confirmed in due course.
Our current working assumption is that DWP will provide IT Digital Services (through a managed
service), this approach is to be confirmed in due course.
DWP’s approach to the provision of Estate will be confirmed in due course.
Supplier Event Details
We intend to hold a virtual supplier event on 30th April (further details with be provided in due course).
We intend to hold the following virtual supplier events:
On 29/09/2021 we will hold a session specifically on the proposed payment model for FAS.

DWP requires a range of functional health assessments. Functional health assessments
help by providing advice to DWP Decision Makers to determine eligibility for a range of
benefits paid to claimants. Currently, this primarily focuses on Personal Independence
Payment (PIP), Employment and Support Allowance (ESA), and Universal Credit (UC).
In July 2020, the Department published a VEAT notice advising the market of its
intention to extend the current PIP and Health and Disability Assessment Services
(HDAS) contracts for up to 24 months. This was a result of the impact of Covid-19 on
the procurement planned for 2020.
The Department intends to procure Functional Assessment Service (FAS) contracts from
1st August 2023, to provide functional health assessments through a single supplier in
each geographical Lot. This is part of the Department’s long term plans to transform
health assessment services by creating an integrated health assessment service.
Current functional health assessments primarily help to determine eligibility for PIP,
ESA, and UC. These benefits may be subject to future changes in Government policy.
As a result of the Government’s commitment to improving support for disabled people
and people with health conditions, there is the possibility of changes in Government
policy relating to delivery and scale of health assessment services during the life of the
FAS contracts. Suppliers will hold a partnership role in any reforms and the FAS
contracts will be structured to facilitate change, including impacts on volumes and
service design.
In March 2020, as part of the Government’s long term plans to transform health
assessment services, we announced that the Department will initially develop the new
single integrated Health Assessment Service (HAS), supported by a single digital
platform developed by DWP, on a small scale in a controlled environment known as the
Health Transformation Area (HTA). The first site in the HTA launched in London
in April 2021. This approach recognises that our claimants
include some of the most vulnerable in society and it is critical that we carefully
develop the new integrated HAS.
The HTA will provide a safe environment to test and adapt HAS, whilst learning from
new ideas and processes. Our intention is to roll out the HAS and associated learning
on a greater scale into pre-defined areas of the country during the life of the FAS
contracts, ahead of full roll out into Next Generation contracts. Further details on the
HTA and its impact on FAS will be provided in due course.

Tenders are invited to carry out a “field” and laboratory-based study to assess the transmission of AMR bacteria (at least E. coli) during the processing of chicken in at least two UK slaughterhouse and cutting plants. We envisaged that this project would track batches of chicken as they progress through the different stages in the slaughterhouse and cutting plant. It is anticipated that sampling would be undertaken from chicken and it’s components including caeca at key points in the slaughter and cutting process from whole incoming bird to finished whole or portioned chicken intended for onward distribution as well as environments and surfaces associated with these steps. We also expect there to be examination of samples (e.g. caeca and faecal contamination of cages) entering the slaughterhouse. It is important to consider the impact of successive flocks on subsequent contamination of chicken processed in the slaughterhouse and cutting plant so consideration should be given to inclusion of batches at the beginning and at the end of the day.
We expect the final report to include a full analysis of the AMR findings in relation to the impact of processing of chicken carcases on AMR contamination to see if there are key areas that may require further investigation or intervention to reduce the spread of AMR bacteria.

1.	Background and Introduction
The TFEIP supports Parties in the reporting of official air pollutant emissions and projections data to the Convention on Long-range Transboundary Air Pollution (CLRTAP). It also provides a technical forum and expert network to identify emission factors, establish methodologies for the estimation of emissions, and identify problems related to data reporting. The Authority funds specific roles within the TFEIP:
•	Chair of the TFEIP;
•	co-Chair of the TFEIP’s Projections Expert Panel (PEP);
•	Secretariat Support for these roles.
The Authority wishes a contractor to undertake these activities for a period of three (3) years with the option of a one year extension period, however, if the agreed Chair of the TFEIP and/or co-Chair of the TFEIP’s PEP changes; the Authority reserves the right to terminate the Contract using clause H3.1 of the Authority’s Standard Terms and Conditions attached to the ITT document.
The Supplier shall make provision for up to £10,000 per year (pro-rata) for a call-off budget. This is a flexible budget and whilst the presumption is that most of this budget will be spent on an annual basis on work agreed by the Authority to be undertaken by the Supplier, it is not guaranteed, and may be subject to variation in the future. This call-off budget will be used to fund all the items in the specification that are specifically identified as being funded by the call-off budget, as well as items to be agreed with the Authority during the contract.

Summary
The TFEIP supports Parties in the reporting of official air pollutant emissions and projections data to the Convention on Long-range Transboundary Air Pollution (CLRTAP). It also provides a technical forum and expert network to identify emission factors, establish methodologies for the estimation of emissions, and identify problems related to data reporting. Defra fund the following roles;
•	Chair of the TFEIP;
•	co-Chair of the TFEIP’s Projections Expert Panel (PEP);
•	Secretariat Support for these roles.
The Contractor will be contracted to undertake the following activities for 3 years, subject to the current chair remaining in post.
TFEIP Chair
The Chair’s objectives are to:
•	Oversee the collation and delivery of the annual work plan;
•	Plan and deliver the TFEIP annual meeting, workshop and management meetings;
•	Manage the contributions from the expert panel leaders and prioritise the improvements to the guidebook and emissions inventory evidence base;
•	Contribute to the continuous improvement of emission inventories reported to the CLRTAP;
•	Liaise with the emissions inventory community and TFEIP members in particular;
•	Collaborate with other centres and task forces within the CLRTAP;
•	Contribute to the strategic direction of EMEP and the CLRTAP;
The Co-Chair’s objectives are to support the TFEIP in improving emission projections, and to understand and communicate potential policy implications of any improvements or data gaps to the Authority. An important role of the expert panels is to review the latest scientific knowledge available concerning emissions and estimation methodologies, and to maintain and update the content of the EMEP/EEA Guidebook. The panels also serve to encourage the exchange of information between experts
The aim of the secretariat support role is to provide administrative support to both of the Chair roles identified above.
