and associated services.
This framework will include two lots:
Lot 1: Electrical vehicle charging points and associated services
Initially in Kent there will be 156 sites to start with, which require a range of charger speeds. It is expected that

cars will be banned by 2035. This framework agreement will assist regional public sector organisations in being
prepared for the increase in demand for charging points.

procurementMethod: limited

procurementMethodDetails: Award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition

procurementMethodRationale: Negotiated procedure without prior publication1.	The COVID-19 outbreak is a Public Health Emergency of International Concern as declared by the World Health Organisation on 30 January 2020. The WHO Director General characterised COVID-19 as a pandemic on 11 March 2020.2.	Establishing adequate testing infrastructure is key element of ensuring an effective response to the pandemic. The requirements for specialist expertise and breadth of resource that can scale rapidly has been identified as necessary to build a robust testing prpgramme at the speed necessary, at a national level.3.	DHSC is satisfied the tests permitting use of the Negotiated procedure without prior publication (Regulation 32(2)(c)) are met:A.	As far as is strictly necessary: The pandemic necessitated an immediate increase in lab and testing capacity and infrastructure to identify and seek to curtail the spread of Covid 19.B.	There are genuine reasons for extreme urgency: The public health risks and mortality rate associated with the pandemic required an immediate response to limit the spread of Covid 19 and save lives.C.	The events that have led to the need for extreme urgency were unforeseeable: The Commission itself confirmed: “The current coronavirus crisis presents an extreme and unforeseeable urgency – precisely for such a situation our European rules enable public buyers to buy within a matter of days, even hours, if necessary.” (Commissioner Breton, Internal Market, 01.04.2020).D.	It is impossible to comply with the usual timescales in the PCR: It is not possible to comply with the timescales of another procedure due to the urgent requirement to ensure the build of testing infrastructure commences immediately. E.	The situation is not attributable to the contracting authority – DHSC has not done anything to cause or contribute to the need for extreme urgency

Following the VEAT Notice published on 31 March 2021, this is the award notice for the disaggregation of Oracle Database Software Subscriptions from the Scottish Government Universal Licence
Agreement. COPFS previously purchased annual subscriptions through a collaborative Universal Licence Agreement between the Scottish
Government and Oracle. Scottish Government and Oracle have negotiated to disaggregate the subscriptions to individual organisations as
an exit from the agreement, which means COPFS needs to contract directly with Oracle at the prices agreed by Oracle and the Scottish
Government. Due to the unique position regarding the exit of the agreement competition is absent. COPFS has purchased 126 x Oracle Database Enterprise Edition, 6 x Partitioning, 126 x Tuning Pack and 126 x Diagnostic Pack for 12 months.

In the East of England we are now exploring how to establish this service in a phased approach from 1 December 2021.  The model of the service will be a stand-alone service with its own decision making/governance and branding, hosted by an NHS organisation.  More information on the hosting is at Appendix One, located at https://uk.eu-supply.com/login.asp?B=AGCSU&target=&timeout=
The staffing levels have been nationally set with some local adjustments.  It is envisaged that the staffing will be a combination of directly employed staff and resources gained through honorary contracts.  There will be a hosting fee available which should represent best value, this has yet to be decided but is likely to be a flat fee rather than a percentage of the value.
We are now canvassing for initial expressions of interest to provide the hosting of this service.  We are hoping that we will be able to agree a single host through collaborative discussions, rather than a competitive process due to the pressing timescales.
we should therefore be grateful if you would email me direct on judebowler@nhs.net by  5.00pm on Friday 30 April 2021, if your Trust is interesting in hosting this vital service – at this stage this is just an initial expression and so we do not require any further information and you may withdraw your interest at any time.
It is the intention to then  arrange a call with the interested Trusts, with the Clinical Lead(s) - Dr Anne Booth (anne.booth2@nhs.net) and/or Dr Alistair Steel (alistair.steel@nhs.net) and commissioning colleagues by 7 May 2021.  The next stage is to potentially follow up with a virtual meeting with all interested Trusts in the following week.  Dates and times will be confirmed nearer the time.
If you have any queries on the service, then please do contact the clinical leads, or if you have a query  around the contracting, funding arrangements or other areas, then please contact Jude Bowler (judebowler@nhs.net).  We should be grateful if you would confirm receipt of this letter.
Just to alert Providers, that a Prior Information Notice (PIN) will also be published to the market through Contracts Finder and Find a Tender Service – links are provided below.
https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Search
https://www.tendersdirect.co.uk/
Many thanks and we look forward to hearing from you. Additional information: Appendix One is located at https://uk.eu-supply.com/login.asp?B=AGCSU&target=&timeout=

In response to COVID19, intensive critical care teams have worked collaboratively to deliver local, regional and national mutual aid and support, which enabled delivery of safe critical care services across the country.  This model was seen as one of the success stories of collegiate ways of working during the pandemic.
Part of this success was the setting up of an interim ACC transfer service to aid load levelling.   Even though cases are reducing it is recognised, both nationally and regionally, that there is a lasting need to have a dedicated critical care transfer service to ensure patient safety and efficient running of critical care units.   In response to this a national service specification has been drafted.
