Lot 1 – IMCA/Healthwatch/Care Act Advocacy/NHS Complaints - The primary role of the services shall be to meet all statutory requirements for Cumbria County Council for the provision of professional independent advocacy under the terms of the Care Act 2014, the Health and Social Care Act 2012, and the Mental Capacity Act 2005, (as amended by the Mental Health Act 2007 and within the guidelines set out in the Mental Capacity Act 2005 Code of Practice and the Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards supplement to the Code of Practice.)
The services will operate across all categories of need, including adults with learning disabilities, dementia, mental health needs, acquired brain injury, physical and sensory impairment and young people in transition to adult services.
Lot 2 – Independent Mental Health Act Advocacy - IMHA services were introduced to safeguard the rights of people detained under the Mental Health Act (referred to as ‘qualifying patients’). IMHA services aim to enable people to understand their rights and safeguards under the Mental Health Act, and to participate in decisions about their care and treatment.
An Independent Mental Health Advocate is a statutory role, with specific responsibilities which include:
- Supporting qualifying patients to access information and to better understand what is happening to them.
- Supporting qualifying patients to explore options and to engage with decision-making about their care and treatment.
- Supporting qualifying patients to articulate their own views.
- Speaking on the qualifying patient's behalf, as instructed by them, and representing them when requested.
- Accessing records relating to the qualifying patient’s detention, treatment or after-care.
- Providing non-instructed advocacy to qualifying patients who cannot clearly instruct their advocate or lack capacity to make specific decisions.

The core requirement for the pilot project is to trial approaches or arrangements for overcoming the barrier to technology development in a nuclear environment; in other words, the pilot will identify how best to provide reasonable site access to the wider market. This requirement means that a delivery partner must have ready access to R&D facilities on a civil nuclear licensed site from the start of the 9-month programme (i.e. from June 2021).  Only NNL have access to extensive R&D facilities on a nuclear licensed site, and thus can provide the services required by this procurement.
Our initial estimated budget of £1.745m has moved to a £2.045m finalised budget,  after continued development of project requirements and scoping of costs, since the market engagement and related PIN.

title: Campus for Advanced Nuclear Skills and Innovation: Pilot Programme

status: complete

scheme: CELEX

description:
The Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) intends to appoint the National Nuclear Laboratory for The Advanced Nuclear Campus Pilot Programme, that will establish a 9 month pilot for an advanced nuclear skills and innovation campus.  The Pilot will:
•demonstrate how collaborative Innovation and Research projects can be successfully carried out on a civil Nuclear Licensed Site, and how best to remove barriers and facilitate access to those sites;
•demonstrate and evaluate different approaches to providing skills, training, and experience on a civil Nuclear Licensed Site, for a range of ages and educational backgrounds;
•establish the scope and specification of future Campuses, including, location considerations, access arrangements and infrastructure requirements; and
•develop robust evidence base and propose suitable delivery models and funding levels for full-scale Campuses and identifying what level of user demand exists across the sector.

description: Research and development services and related consultancy services

procurementMethod: limited

mainProcurementCategory: services

procurementMethodDetails: Negotiated without publication of a contract notice

procurementMethodRationale:
The NNL is a Government-owned body (the Secretary of State for the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy is the sole shareholder) and as such has a remit to support Government in nuclear technical matters.
For this pilot programme, market engagement was held with industry organisations, academia and consultancies to determine the viability of a competitive procurement procedure. Feedback gathered has caused BEIS to discount a competition as a viable route for the campus pilot. This is based on the following factors:
• It is not feasible currently to provide the wider market with fair and reasonable access to R&D facilities on a civil nuclear licensed site, therefore a fair competition cannot be held.
• Any potential competitive option would require complex consortia structures, which go against the pilot objectives - all consortia partners would need to partner with a site licencee or enter into lengthy new site licence negotiations with the Office for Nuclear Regulation (ONR). The pilot is not intended to trial and assess the delivery partner, but instead trial the process, learning and outcomes of pilot projects and training enabled by the delivery partner.
• Only a single organisation (NNL) currently have access to extensive R&D facilities on a nuclear licensed site.
The core requirement for the pilot project is to trial approaches or arrangements for overcoming the barrier to technology development in a nuclear environment; in other words, the pilot will identify how best to provide reasonable site access to the wider market. This requirement means that a delivery partner must have ready access to R&D facilities on a civil licensed site from the start of the 9-month programme (i.e. from June 2021).  As mentioned, only a single organisation (NNL) already having access to extensive R&D facilities on a nuclear licensed site and can currently offer this service.
Whilst the single source route is appropriate for this pilot, it is vital to create an environment where a fair and open competition is possible for future campus phases. Any future open competition is predicated on the pilot not giving any unfair advantage to the delivery partner or licensed site. During this pilot programme NNL must look toward the next phase and the importance of opening up the market. Opening up the market requires:
• Future Multiple Site Options – NNL will be tasked with identifying future campus location(s), the benefits they could bring and the necessary interventions to enable them to do so.
• Future Multiple Delivery Partners – NNL will be tasked with identifying effective processes and opportunities for organisations to become tenants on nuclear licensed sites, along with associated challenges and requirements.
• Industrial Innovation. NNL will be tasked with identifying campus features (working model and timelines) to enable campus innovation from the market and drive toward Value for Money (ROI) with the Research and Development conducted.

This is a Contract Award Notice of a previously advertised PIN. This is not new information.
ADHD Service for Children and Young People in North East Hampshire have Direct Awarded to Psicon ltd for 24+12 months from 1st April 2021 of £362,140 per annum.

description: Health and social work services

submissionMethod: electronicSubmission written

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

procurementMethodRationale:
Direct awarding the North East Hampshire ADHD Service to Psicon will provide assurance and consistency in meeting the needs of children/young people. This will also reduce the risk of those already receiving medication experiencing adverse impacts from a break in service.
The direct award also affords the opportunity to review the impact of the service on children, young people and families. This will potentially be supported by a research project to determine effective outcome measures as a way of understanding the longer-term impacts on children/young people, particularly in terms of educational attainment, as part of a wider review of ADHD provision across Hampshire and the Isle of Wight.
This will allow the developed model and service specification to be fully costed, ensuring the service delivers value for money, and offering confidence that the service model is realistic and achievable without compromising the quality of the service.
Procurement throughout 2021/22 will divert commissioner and provider resources, at a time when workforce as a whole is under extreme pressure, post-Covid recovery and restoration. A direct award will provide confidence that the commissioned service will be safe, sustainable and equitable in line with the NSH Long Term Plan during a period of substantial expansion and change. Earlier review of the current service and consideration of the future model was not possible due to the levels of disruption to normal service delivery impacted by Covid.
Frimley CCG and the Hampshire, Southampton and Isle of Wight CCG has recommended that a direct award to Psicon (the existing provider) is in the best interests of meeting patient needs, improving quality of care, and maximising potential efficiencies within the system.

Autoballasters are essential maintenance vehicles and used to ensure the safe running of the railway, delivering aggregate to worksites nationally.
The aim of this requirement is to address a known occupational health and operational safety risk associated with dust liberation on worksites. The fitment of dust suppression technology to the Autoballaster wagon fleet will reduce health and safety risks including visibility and exposure to Respirable Crystalline Silica (RCS).
This exposure is a result of granite dust being liberated during the unloading of the ballast at worksites.
The aim of this project is to enhance the effectiveness of NR’s fleet of Autoballasters with an effective liquid dust suppression system. In order to comply with the HSWA Act 1974, COSHH Regulations and commitments to the ORR, Network Rail must ensure all rail bound activities are equipped with suitable dust suppression equipment.
The requirement is seeking a collaborative relationship with the awarded supplier. This is principally driven by the complexity of wagon haulage and the requirement to minimise wagon outages impact on operational delivery.

description: Radar

procurementMethodRationale:
The Secretary of State for Defence (the Authority), through the Surface Ships Combat Systems Group (SSCSG) Project Team within Defence Equipment & Support (DE&S) intends to place a 21 month contract, with up to two six month option periods for a maximum duration of 33 months, with Leonardo UK Ltd. for the Support of Queen Elizabeth Class (QEC) Identification Friend or Foe (IFF).
QEC IFF is a secondary surveillance radar system fitted to the two ships in the QEC. It forms part of the QEC Mission System and contributes towards situational awareness, identification and Air Traffic Control operations within both vessels.
It is considered that this contract can be placed using the negotiated procedure without prior publication of a contract notice pursuant to Regulation 16(1)(a)(ii) of the UK Defence and Security Public Contracts Regulations 2011 for technical reasons. Leonardo UK Ltd. is the existing service provider and only they possess the necessary expertise, means and know how essential to delivering and supporting the IFF capability as it is a bespoke technical solution fitted to QEC. It is not feasible for another supplier to achieve the required technical performance, as they would not have the specific technical knowledge, tools and means which the current supplier has at its disposal.

Project NUMIDIAN: Provision of support to the design, preparation and delivery of Training Exercises including Contemporary Operating Environmental FORce (COEFOR), Opposition FORce (OPFOR), Hi-Fidelity Casualty Simulation (CASSIM), EXCON (Exercise Control), production of Operational Staff Work (OSW) and Exercise Scenario writing and Senior Mentoring services.
This Project will deliver a new three-year (plus 2 possible 1-year option periods) contract that provides greater access and flexibility across training levels across Defence.
This Project is looking at combining and optimising the outputs of the COEFOR and Project HANNIBAL contracts to deliver greater access and flexibility across training levels and environments (live, virtual and constructive). This approach would deliver a capability which would better support the future training requirement informed by the Integrated Review.
•	The current COEFOR contract provides technical writing and live simulation to deliver a true to life training experience for Mission Ready and Combat Ready exercises. This is through role players portraying conflict environments, including COEFOR and OPFOR. It also provides high fidelity casualty simulation and pyrotechnics.
•	The current Project HANNIBAL provides OPFOR, White Cell, EXCON, Operational Staff Work (OSW) production and mentoring in the constructive environment. The contract operates at Trg Levels GOLF (Brigade training (CT5)) and HOTEL (Divisional training (CT6)). This is conducted as a Command Post-Exercise (CPX) which trains Formation Headquarters so that they are competent at integrating capabilities and prepared for readiness or operations. The current contract works through Command Staff and Tactical Training Group (CSTTG). It also delivers the Threat Tactics Courses for Trg Levels FOXTROT (Battle Group (CT4)) to HOTEL.
It is the Authority’s intent that by combining the two contracts under Project NUMIDIAN, it creates a joined-up approach with intelligence analysis, Exercise design, planning and assurance which will filter down to the delivery of the Exercise. To ensure that at every Training Level, the training audience is challenged by contemporary threats. Project NUMIDIAN is also investigating the development and addition of the following capabilities:
•	Information Manoeuvre. The activities that an Enemy or Adversary would undertake in the areas of Networks, Intelligence, Cyber, Influence and Security.
•	Representative Armoured Enemy. Innovative approaches to the representation of armoured enemy in the Live environment.
•	Pyrotechnics support. Limited to the provision of battlefield noise simulation excluding plastic explosives.
•	Unmanned Air Systems. Provide the capability with GFE supplied equipment.
•	Improved data capture and analysis. To include, but not limited to, data for After Action Review and Force Development.
The Authority is keen to understand where the market stands in terms of our requirement by inviting responses to a Request for Information (RFI), full details of which are in the attached document.
Please note the following:
• This RFI will assist the Authority to refine any future requirements.
• We reserve the right not to proceed with this procurement. Nothing shall constitute a commitment to instigating a formal procurement process.
• Any and all costs associated with the production of such a response either to an RFI or any resultant competition must be borne by the Supplier. The Authority will not contribute in any way to meeting production costs of any response.
• No down-selection of Potential Providers will take place as a consequence of any responses or interactions relating to this RFI.
• The Authority expect that all responses to this RFI will be provided by Potential Providers in good faith to the best of their ability in the light of information available at the time of their response.
• No information provided by a Potential Provider in response to this RFI will be carried forward, used or acknowledged in any way for the purpose of evaluating the Potential Provider, in any subsequent formal procurement process that may take place.
• Should a Potential Provider fail to respond to this Questionnaire, it will not affect any further participation in any possible future procurement for this capability.

rationale: Need for additional works, services or supplies by the original contractor/concessionaire: Part of the extra licences needed for NDHT are available for RD&E's 'affiliate users' under the original contract and according to Reg 72(1)(a). For licences above the original contract and associated services, RD&E is modifying the contract under Reg 72(1)(b) because a change of contractor would (1) prevent interoperability and (2) would cause significant inconvenience or substantial duplication of costs. Epic is providing all existing licences to RD&E and a proportion of the licences to NDHT under the original contract, so another supplier could not feasibly deliver solely the additional licences above the permitted volumes. Further, since Epic will be providing the underlying licences, it has the expertise and knowledge to deliver the associated services including trained people and intellectual property rights. The forthcoming merger needs common clinical systems which would be disrupted by another supplier. The value of the modification is less than 50% of the original contract.

description:
Nature and extent of the modifications (with indication of possible earlier changes to the contract):
As Royal Devon and Exeter NHS Trust (RD&E) and Northern Devon Healthcare Trust (NDHT) are in the process of completing a merger such that NDHT's operations are merged into RD&E's or NDHT becomes an 'affiliate' of RD&E, the modification is required to extend use of Epic's software under the contract to NDHT which increases the licensed volumes for the software. Epic shall provide associated implementation and training services in respect of the software to NDHT. RD&E will act as a pass-through agent for the contractual charges incurred under the modification for NDHT.
