name: London Bus Services Limited ("LBSL"), a subsidiary of Transport for London ("TfL")

title: iBus Extension

description: Beyond the initial 3-year extension, the parties have options to extend the contract by two further one-year periods.

description:
As noted at II.1.4) above, in 2005 LBSL awarded a 10-year contract to Siemens for the bus communication system known as iBus (the Contract). The iBus system is the Automatic Vehicle Location (AVL) system for the London bus network and London Trams. It supports approximately 9,000 buses (and their associated infrastructure such as garages and Service Control Centres) across Greater London and provides critical functionality including Real Time Passenger Information and facilitating emergency response services.
The Contract was novated to Trapeze in October 2009. In 2015, the parties agreed to extend the Contract from May 2015 for up to 7 years, such that it would terminate in May 2022.
TfL is competitively procuring the next generation system, iBus2, under the PCR 2015.  The iBus2 procurement is comprised as two lots: the on-bus systems and the back-office systems (both of which are currently provided by Trapeze).
TfL initially expected the iBus2 procurement to be completed before 2022.  However, the iBus2 procurement has taken longer than foreseen and is still ongoing.  Consequently, LBSL now needs to extend the Contract term for up to a further 5 years (3 years initial term, plus options for two one-year extensions) until May 2027 (the "Extension") to allow for completion of the iBus2 procurement and orderly transition to the resulting new arrangements. The Extension comprises the following steps:
1.	As a first step, on 27 April 2022, TfL and Trapeze entered into an agreement to extend the Contract for a period of eight weeks from 4 May 2022, expiring on 30 June 2022 ("the Short-term Extension"). The purpose of the Short-term Extension is to continue the Contract while LBSL and TfL consider the terms of a Medium-term Extension offered by Trapeze to LBSL (see below).
2.	As a second step, LBSL and Trapeze expect to enter into a further agreement which will extend the Contract for up to a further 5 years (an initial term that takes the duration of the Short-term Extension plus the further extension to a total of 3 years, plus options for two additional one-year extensions) until May 2027 ("the Medium-term Extension"). The proposed commercial terms for that extension have recently been agreed with Trapeze and reflected in a binding offer by Trapeze capable of acceptance by LBSL during a limited period.  The parties will enter into the Medium-term Extension if and when LBSL's acceptance of Trapeze's offer is approved following associated LBSL and TfL governance activities.
As explained at IV.1.1 and VI.3 below, TfL and LBSL consider that the Extension benefits from the exemption for "additional services" in Regulation 72(1)(b) of the PCR.  This exemption allows for the non-competitive procurement of additional services that have become necessary, where a change of contractor cannot be made for economic or technical reasons and where such a change would cause significant inconvenience or duplication of costs. Additional information: The total value of the Extension (as specified at II.1.7 and V.2.4) includes the value of both the Short-term Extension and the Medium-term Extension and assumes that the options for two one-year extensions are exercised.

description:
In 2005 LBSL awarded a 10-year contract to Siemens for the bus communication system known as iBus (the Contract).  The Contract was novated to Trapeze ITS Switzerland GmBH Limited (Trapeze) in October 2009. In 2015, the parties agreed to extend the Contract from May 2015 for up to 7 years, such that it would terminate in May 2022.

As explained at IV.1.1 below, TfL and LBSL consider that the Extension benefits from the exemption in Reg. 72(1)(b) PCR.

description: IT services: consulting, software development, Internet and support

procurementMethodRationale:
TfL considers that the Extension benefits from the exemption in Reg. 72(1)(b) PCR, for the following reasons.
The provision of the additional iBus services over an additional 3 years (with options to extend for two further years) has become necessary for TfL to ensure continuation of the iBus services while the procurement of iBus2 is completed and to enable an orderly and low-risk transition to the iBus2 services.
Running a competitive tender for a 3-year extension (with two one-year options to extend) ahead of completing the iBus2 procurement would involve significant inconvenience and substantial duplication of costs for TfL, particularly if the contractor who won the short-term tender was not the successful bidder for iBus2.  It may also further delay completion of the iBus2 tender process.
Given the complexity of the iBus system and number of buses in service in London, it is not viable for TfL to bring in a different contractor on a short-term basis in a way that safeguards the continued operation of TfL's iBus (and wider bus) services, pending completion of the iBus2 procurement.
It would not be feasible for TfL to extend the Contract for only the on-bus services or only the back office services because, if TfL retained Trapeze to provide either only the on-bus services or only the back office services, the incoming supplier (potentially in cooperation with Trapeze) would need to provide an interfacing solution which is capable of interfacing with the remainder of Trapeze's services (iBus1) and in time with the procured replacement for the remainder of Trapeze's services (iBus2).  TfL has concerns relating to the interoperability of any new on-bus/back office solution and the 'turnkey' Trapeze solution, i.e. the required interface may not be viable, such that the iBus2 procurement would still need to be for the whole of the current iBus2 scope and therefore any interim solution might need to be transitioned to a replacement iBus2 solution (leaving TfL bearing high capex costs for the interim solution which would not otherwise be incurred by TfL if it were to proceed with the Extension and then transition to the end-to-end iBus2 solution).
Bringing in a different contractor on a short-term basis is not likely to achieve value for money for TfL.  Indeed, the cost of swapping provider in such a situation would likely be prohibitive.

title: iBus Extension

description:
The proposed Extension of the Contract needs to cater reasonably and prudently for a complex transition programme and to allow sufficient time for various contingencies.  On that basis, TfL and LBSL have valid technical and economic reasons for considering that an extension period of 3 years is necessary and reasonable.
In determining what constitutes a reasonable and necessary extension period in relation to the Contract, it is relevant to take into account the surrounding risks, such as the risk of delay to awarding the iBus2 contract and the risk of unacceptable (and commercially damaging) operational failure if TfL were left without an iBus service provider at any time.  Other relevant factors justifying the term of the proposed Extension include the following:
(a)	the complexity of the iBus services and the need, during the ongoing iBus2 procurement process, for bidders for iBus2 to immerse themselves in information so that they can submit compliant and competitive proposals;
(b)	the importance of providing all bidders for iBus 2 with adequate time and information during the iBus2 procurement process, noting in particular the importance of giving newcomer bidders time and information to understand the services provided by the iBus incumbent (Trapeze);
(c)	the complexity of transitioning from the incumbent supplier to a new iBus2 supplier following contract award, where the new incoming supplier is likely to require significant handover and early life support.  In this respect, on the current project plan, TfL is anticipating a period of at least 18 months post-contract award for transition and roll-out which will cover, for the on-bus solution, the transition and roll-out to the c. 9,000 buses in London and, for the back-office solution, an IT and data migration.  It is reasonable and prudent for TfL to ensure that it has sufficient headroom under its existing contract to maintain business-as-usual service provision until such time as the new iBus2 supplier is able to begin providing the services;
(d)	the need to allow for potential delays arising from contingencies, such as a possible resurgence of the Covid-19 pandemic; and
(e) 	by structuring the extension award as three years plus two optional extensions of one year, TfL can determine in due course, by reference to the iBus2 procurement process and the transition arrangements, whether the additional year(s) of extension are necessary (rather than committing to them now).

Tenders are invited to carry out a field and laboratory-based study to assess the transmission of AMR bacteria during the processing of broilers in UK slaughterhouses and cutting plants. We envisaged that this project would track batches of broilers as they progress through the different stages in the slaughterhouse and cutting plant. It is anticipated that sampling would be taken at key points in the slaughter and cutting process from whole incoming bird to finished whole or portioned chicken, as well as environmental swabs of the associated areas. The samples should include broilers and its components as well as caeca to see if there are changes in the AMR profile during the process. It is important to consider the impact of successive flocks on the subsequent contamination of the broilers, so sampling should consider inclusion of batches immediately before and after cleaning cycles. We expect the bacteria to be tested for should include at least E. coli and Campylobacter.
We expect the final report to include a full analysis of the AMR findings, with a focus on the transmission of AMR during the processing of broiler carcases, to see if there are key areas that may require further investigation or intervention to reduce the spread of AMR bacteria.

description: WMCA is establishing a suite of Adult Education Budget Service Contracts through this procurement exercise, with a total estimated value of up to £4m for the initial 15 month period. It is WMCA’s intention that contracts awarded will initially be awarded for 15 months (academic year 2019 to 2020), with an option to extend for a further year up to July 2022.

description: Education and training services

procurementMethodDetails: Negotiated without publication of a contract notice

procurementMethodRationale:
This contract provides Adult Education Skills and Training throughout the West Midlands Combined Authority area.
The impact of the pandemic has been unprecedented and widespread across our residents communities, and businesses and we are currently experiencing a challenging economic picture. Employment is flat, while falling unemployment masks a continuing decline in the size of the labour force as economic inactivity rises. While short-term unemployment is at its lowest ever, long-term unemployment is significantly higher than pre-pandemic levels. Record vacancies signal that employers are finding it increasingly hard to fill posts. And while pay is increasing, soaring inflation means that it is declining in real terms. Taken together, this creates a toxic mix for living standards that will not resolve itself. The provision of training has a key role to play in moving people back into the labour force; improving workplace support; and helping people find good, well-paid employment and progress at work.
We want to align our skills funding to be able to deliver maximum impact so we intend to procure provision collectively – meaning we are aiming to run a single procurement opportunity for Adult Education Budget, National Skills Fund and Multiply.
The estimated length of time expected to be able to create the new offering is anticipated to be in the region of 6 to 12 months.  We are therefore intending to let the contract for an initial period of 6 months with the option to extend for a further 6 month period.
To ensure service continuity, the West Midlands Combined Authority has taken the decision to award the contract to their current providers (please see list above), under Regulation 32 of the Procurement Regulations 2015 as the Services consist of a repetition of similar services entrusted to the current providers which are the same as or similar to the Services awarded under their original contracts.

title: Adult Education Budget Service Contract 1 - FTS Contract Award Notice

description: From the 2019/20 academic year, the WMCA will take responsibility for the region's Adult Education Budget (AEB) and how it is delivered supporting eligible adult learners. The AEB is a key enabler of inclusive growth through the improvement of the qualification levels and skills of our adult residents. Our focus with the AEB is to address key issues including tackling unemployment amongst young people and creating more grass-roots provision to better engage hard to reach communities. We also want to ensure that AEB provision can be targeted to address the needs of key target groups such as care leavers and those over the age of 50. Finally, there are challenges for those residents in work and in low pay who struggle to re-train to access opportunities in our priority sectors including automotive/advanced manufacturing, business and professional services, construction and digital that we will use AEB to support. This service relates to the provision of adult education training services.
