reviewDetails:
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.

SMBC wish to purchase one Connected Autonomous Vehicle (CAV) capable of being driven both manually, i.e. by traditional steering wheel and foot pedals, and autonomously. The vehicle must be suitable for operation on the public highway, so as to maximise potential future application. The vehicle must be able to carry ten or more persons, including the safety driver, simultaneously so as to fit the core project outcome of contributing to the demonstration of autonomy in mass people and / or goods movement.
Alongside the purchase of the vehicle, appropriate levels of on-going project delivery support must be provided so as to maximise delivery of the intended use.
Both the vehicle and the supplier must possess and be able to demonstrate a proven track record in the movement of people by fully autonomous means, as the intended use is for multiple use case application across varying locations, not technology development.
The project delivery period is for a minimum of two years from contract start in April 2021.
The vehicle will be loaned out to key regional stakeholders to deliver defined use case applications with the ambition of increasing regional understanding and awareness of the technology, helping the authority apply learning to future highways, residential, commercial and transport interchange infrastructure development.

description:
Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council (SMBC) is delivering the Low Carbon Future Mobility (LCFM) project within the UK Central Infrastructure Programme. The project is assessing a breadth of new solutions to delivering low / zero carbon active and mass transport solutions.
Working closely with Borough and regional stakeholders there is an identified desire to learn how Connected Autonomous Vehicle (CAV) technology may in the future be incorporated into both the Council's and private company's operations, as a way of providing an increased number of mass transport options to the public, addressing the over-reliance on privately-owned single-occupancy motor vehicles. Current trends indicate that if car sales continue along existing trajectories then moving in and around the Borough will become increasingly problematic at key pinch-points, so pathfinding interventions must be accelerated.
To support this ambition SMBC is seeking to procure one proven mass-people-moving connected autonomous vehicle (CAV), and associated supplier support, for use across the Borough and potentially wider West Midlands region over a period of a minimum of two years from April 2021. The vehicle will be loaned out to key regional stakeholders to deliver defined use case applications with the ambition of increasing regional understanding and awareness of the technology, helping the authority apply learning to future highways, residential, commercial and transport interchange infrastructure development. The project is not a technology development / feasibility study, rather a use case application demonstrator.

procurementMethodDetails: Negotiated without publication of a contract notice

procurementMethodRationale:
Prior to conducting the negotiated procedure, considerable efforts were made to identify alternative suppliers who could meet SMBC's requirements. This included engaging CAV-specialist consultants in development of the FBC.
To date, no alternative suppliers have been identified.
Due to the market for purpose-built, autonomous vehicles still being under-developed only one supplier has been identified that is able to meet the requirements of the project.

Award of PURCH1886 Provision of Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) For The Lighthouse Lab In Glasgow (LliG)
This is fixed for 12 months with option to renew for a further 9 years.

name: Warranty & Contract Lifetime User Support

acceleratedRationale: The COVID-19 outbreak has given rise to an urgent need for the supply of a Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) for the Lighthouse Lab in Glasgow (LLIG).  The current system is under contract to the Department of Health and Social care (DHSC) and has now expired.  This is operating on a rolling contract basis.  The University is now required to procure its own LIMS system for longevity of the LLIG and this has to be in place by 1st Feb 2021 when the current rolling agreement with the DHSC will no longer be available to the University. This does not give the University sufficient time to comply with the standard open procedure timescales for this procurement. The University considers this to be a state of urgency which it has duly substantiated for the purposes of using the accelerated procedure. Accordingly, the University is using the accelerated time limits permitted under the PC(S) 2015 regulation 28(5) in respect of this procurement.

title: Tachograph Analysis Software

description: The term of the new contract would be 3 years with a possibility of extension for a further 2 years.

description:
Supplier will provide the maintenance for the Tachoscan licences.
TachoScan® Control enables fast and accurate analysis of data from the driver card, record
sheet and tachograph memory in compliance with the current law.
Since implementation of the current contract in 2016, DVSA has spent a considerable
amount of time and resources (financial and non-financial) to ensure that TachoScan®
Control delivers analysis for drivers' hours, with the main key areas being functionality and
usability.
In addition, DVSA has recently conducted research to understand if there has been any
movement in the market of similar products, but there has been none with several products
not being suitable for enforcement purposes.
Below are reasons explaining as to why the renewal of the Tachoscan Control licences
should take place:
• A Tachonet connection was developed to allow DVSA to check the validity of the Driver
Card, which is a key and legislative part of a Traffic Examiners' role. Any new product would
require Tachonet but DVSA do not have budget to cover this cost.
• Trialling of new software - DVSA would need to ensure functionality and usability were key
to any new software but DVSA have no budget to cover this cost.
• Training for Traffic Examiners would be required for any new software but DVSA has no
budget to cover this cost.
• Reduced productivity of drivers' hours checks undertaken by Traffic Examiners whilst new
software embeds in (approximately 3 months). This reduction would need to be reported to
the Department for Transport who sets the targets for drivers' hours checks and could
impact road safety.

description: Software package and information systems

title: Tachograph Analysis Software

procurementMethodRationale:
Upon procurement of Tachoscan in 2016, DVSA spent £235k to adapt the software to allow an API connection to DVLA for Tachonet.  This is where DVSA check the validity of the Driver Card which is a key and legislative part of a Traffic Examiners (TE) role.  Below are key items as to why the renewal of the Tachoscan licences would benefit DVSA:
•	Tachonet spent £235k on development & implementation.  Any new product would require Tachonet but DVSA do not have additional budget to cover this cost.
•	Training of new software for TEs - training department have attempted to deliver virtual training for Tachoscan and have ceased due to the complex nature of the work.  The training needs to be carried out face-to-face, and the training department have confirmed they do not have capacity this year to undertake this vast task (approximately 350 TEs). The costs for training of any new software would be circa £475k, for which there is no budget to cover this additional cost.
•	Trailing of new software and download devices.  We would need to ensure functionality and usability were key to any new software and the compatibility for the download devices.  This would incur additional time and budget.
•	Licence removal - additional costs not budgeted for.
•	New software testing & installation - additional costs not budgeted for.
•	Inelo have given DVSA a free report within the software. Report is used to evidence most serious offences as agreed by courts and traffic commissioners so would need to be replicated onto any replacement software.
•	Reduced productivity of driver's hours checks undertaken by TEs whilst new software embeds in (approx 3 months). This reduction would need to be reported up to DfT who set the targets for driver's hours checks and will impact road safety.
•	The Laptop Replacement Project for all TEs is underway and we have asked Inelo to develop software to automatically transfer Tachoscan (including the licence and saved digital data) to the new laptop. Without this an engineer would have to remote onto each of the 300+ laptops. Project must be completed prior to August licence renewal.
•	Contact made with the European Tachograph Working Group. All replies have shown that most member states already use Tachoscan and those that do not are in a procurement process to purchase it.  This gives a consistent tool across the EU and UK that all drivers hours analysis is being done to the same high standard.
In summary, DVSA have invested heavily in time, resource and cost into a product that is 'fit for purpose'. The move to another product would be detrimental to DVSAs capability to undertake a key enforcement role and incur costs that there is no budget for.

title: Tachograph Analysis Software

description:
DVSA is looking to extend their current contract for Tachoscan licences with Inelo.
TachoScan® Control enables fast and accurate analysis of data from the driver card, record sheet and tachograph memory in compliance with the current law.
Since implementation of the current contract in 2016, DVSA has spent a considerable amount of time and resources to ensure that TachoScan® Control delivers analysis for drivers' hours, with the main key areas being functionality and usability.
In addition, DVSA has recently conducted research to understand if there has been any movement in the market of similar products of high functionality and usability, but there has been none with several products not being suitable for enforcement purposes.
Below are reasons explaining as to why the renewal of the Tachoscan Control licences should take place:
•	A Tachonet connection was developed to allow DVSA to check the validity of the Driver Card, which is a key and legislative part of a Traffic Examiners' role. Any new product would require Tachonet but DVSA do not have budget to cover this cost.
•	Trialling of new software - DVSA would need to ensure functionality and usability were key to any new software but DVSA have no budget to cover this cost.
•	Training for Traffic Examiners would be required for any new software but DVSA has no budget to cover this cost.
•	Reduced productivity of drivers' hours checks undertaken by Traffic Examiners whilst new software embeds in (approximately 3 months). This reduction would need to be reported to the Department for Transport who sets the targets for drivers' hours checks and could impact road safety.

Funding is being sought from the European Regional Development Fund and the Welsh Government, via the Welsh Government’s Transforming Towns programme for the project. The building is owned by Swansea Council and is situated on its own surrounded by High Street, Bethesda Street and Prince of Wales Road. There is currently hoarding surrounding the building with a compound situated inside the hoarding on Bethesda Street. The Palace opened in 1892 and has been used as a theatre, pub, bingo hall, and more recently a nightclub. The Palace closed its doors to the public in 2006, and has been vacant ever since. Many famous faces have appeared on the stage at the Palace including Sir Anthony Hopkins and Charlie Chaplin.
Swansea Council along with its appointed multi-disciplinary design team will be seeking a suitably experienced Principal Contractor, specifically of Heritage Buildings to undertake this sensitive redevelopment.
Swansea Council are undertaking the redevelopment of the Palace Theatre located on High Street, Swansea, with an appointed multi-disciplinary Design team. The refurbishment of the Grade II listed building will create high-end office space for up to 130 office staff. The building consists of six floors and is currently in a state of disrepair, due to being vacant for a number of years. The building has a number of historical heritage features that will require recording, therefore Swansea Council are seeking a principle contractor with suitable heritage experience to undertake these works. Additional information: Swansea Council has an appointed Multi-Disciplinary Team to undertake Project Management, Cost Management, Architectural, Mechanical, Electrical, and Structural Services.

The COVID-19 outbreak has given rise to an urgent need for provision Community Cardiology Services via a new short term contract (effectively continuing existing service provision).
The Community Cardiology Services delivered by South Hampshire Primary Care Alliance and The Grange Cardiology Service have been working together to pilot treatment and diagnostics to low risk patients in the community setting so that secondary care cardiology services can focus on high risk patients and complex care.
Due in large part to the significant impact of the Covid-19 pandemic which has significantly delayed plans to test the model to inform future commissioning intentions for this service, it is necessary to extend the current arrangement.
Under the Public Contracts Regulations 2015, the Contracting Authority considers COVID-19 to be a state of urgency that has been brought about by circumstances which a diligent contracting authority could not have foreseen. A response to the pandemic is therefore required in order to safeguard public health risks and risk to life by securing safe and continued service provision.
Accordingly, NHS South Eastern Hampshire and Fareham and Gosport CCGs has decided to enter into a contract with South Hampshire Primary Care Alliance and The Grange Cardiology Service using the 'competitive procedure without prior publication for reasons of extreme urgency' (Reg 32(2)(c) PCR 2015), brought about by the COVID-19 outbreak, for the following reasons:
•	To maintain service delivery and continuity during and after the Covid-19 response.
•	A change of provider would disrupt continuity and would be to the detriment of patient care and the local health system, noting that exit and mobilisation periods are a key consideration for robust strategic planning.
•	Resources in the contracting authority/provider have been redirected to support frontline activities including direct care for patients and efforts to support supply chain activities. Additional time will allow the Contracting Authority the time required to determine what role the community services will play in the cardiology pathway going forward, confirm true activity levels, benefits of the service and a proposed future model with clearly defined pathways. It will also ensure continuity of service whilst the proposed direction of travel for the service is finalised.
Further justification is supported by guidance issued by the Cabinet Office Procurement Policy Note - Responding to Covid -19 PPN01/20 and PPN01/21.
This PCR Regulation 32 Contract Award notice is being published to notify the award of the contract for 12 months with an option to extend for a further 6 month period from 1st April 2021. This time is considered necessary and proportional to alleviate the risk posed by the outbreak and, will give the above named Contracting Authority sufficient time to comply with undertaking a compliant competitive procurement process under the Public Contracts Regulations 2015.
The value of this award is £447,849 for 18 months ie 12+6 months. (South Hampshire Primary Care Alliance £221,274 & The Grange Cardiology Service £226,575) for the population of Fareham & Gosport and South Eastern Hampshire CCGs.
