description:
Cardiff and Vale UHB along with other Health Boards across Wales have established a group to explore how nitrous oxide can be delivered via small portable cylinders and eliminate the use of the manifold system.
Portable E sized N2O cylinder with a regulator and Schrader valve connection was trialled with success and this change has been rolled out across the University Hospital Llandough and the nitrous oxide manifold was decommissioned in April.
The smaller cylinders have proven to be more efficient than the manifold and have an efficiency of 74%, compared to the piped supply from the manifold. This shows what huge gains there are to be made from moving over to a portable cylinder supply.
We are left with two problems:
1. There are numerous partly filled large G size cylinders on the manifold which we no longer need. If they are returned, the remaining nitrous oxide will be released to the atmosphere. Current legislation prevents reuse/recycling of this gas. We want to find a way to prevent this nitrous oxide going into the atmosphere.
2. We also consume large amounts of Entonox (50% oxygen, 50% nitrous oxide) which is predominantly used by women for pain relief in labour. When this gas is used it is exhaled into the atmosphere. We would like to find an alternative solution which is suitable for widespread use in maternity units across Wales and the UK.
The Healthcare Without Harm Report showed that 5.6% of UK emissions are from healthcare. The Welsh Government have declared a climate emergency and published NHS Wales Decarbonisation plan stating that the Welsh public sector will be carbon neutral by 2030. This ambitious plan specifically targets anaesthetic gases and includes nitrous oxide which has a global warming potential approximately 298 times that of carbon dioxide
Challenge Details
We are looking for sustainable and cost effective solutions for the safe disposal of nitrous oxide and Entonox medical gases. Specifically around the following two Themes:
Theme 1:
Safe disposal of gas within partly filled nitrous oxide cylinders prior to return to the supplier; and
Theme 2:
A solution to the problem of the high levels of Entonox being released into the atmosphere following consumption on our wards.
We are looking to identify, develop and demonstrate innovative solutions that could:
Reduce our emissions of nitrous oxide and Entonox;
Provide a competitively priced and affordable solution to ensure the safe disposal of nitrous oxide and Entonox medical gases in a sustainable way;
Reduce our purchasing of Entonox and nitrous oxide;
Reduce waste in our Entonox supply system; and
Improve air quality in the delivery rooms on labour wards.
Applicants may apply for one or both Themes.
Phase 1: Feasibility – We are looking to fund up to 5 projects up to a value of 50,000 (inclusive of VAT) each for Phase 1.
Note: Only projects successful at phase 1 will be eligible to apply to subsequent phases. Additional phases will be dependent upon funding allocation.
Phase 2: Development - We expect to fund up to 3 of the most successful phase 1 projects up to a value of *150,000 each (inclusive of VAT).
*Dependent upon funding allocation
Please note any adoption and implementation of a solution from this competition would be subject of a separate, possible competitive, procurement exercise. This competition does not cover the purchase of any solution although we may choose to investigate and explore innovative procurement routes as part of this challenge.
The total funding available for the competition can change. The funders have the right to:
adjust the provisional funding allocations between the phases
apply a ‘portfolio’ approach Additional information: We are looking to use this PIN to engage with the market to see what appetite there is in industry to help support and drive this challenge.  Details of the challenge can also be provided in Welsh if required

The Gigabit Infrastructure Subsidy programme, part of Project Gigabit, is a government programme aimed to support the build of gigabit-capable broadband infrastructure in the areas of the UK which are unlikely to attract commercial investment for gigabit-capable broadband infrastructure within a reasonable timeframe, if at all, referred to as the final 20% (f20). Building Digital UK (BDUK, part of DCMS) will be targeting its market intervention in these areas of the UK via this subsidy award programme, to subsidise the build of gigabit-capable networks providing long-term, sustainable availability of wholesale gigabit broadband services in the hardest to reach parts of the UK.

BDUK intends to establish a Cross-Regional Single Supplier Framework, known colloquially as Type C, to award call-off contracts over the life of the Gigabit Infrastructure Subsidy Programme. The Cross-Regional Framework is intended to target premises that are unsuccessfully delivered either via Type A and B procurement or contract delivery within the Gigabit Infrastructure Subsidy programme. Call-Off Contracts awarded under the Cross-Regional Framework will subsidise the design, build and operation of gigabit-capable Supplier networks providing long-term, sustainable availability of wholesale gigabit broadband services in the hardest to reach parts of the UK.

BDUK has hosted a series of previous engagements with suppliers, including 121 engagements with Openreach and other suppliers who expressed an initial interest, to discuss the Cross-Regional Framework approach. The drafted Terms & Conditions (T&Cs) have now been developed and BDUK wishes to re-engage the market. Suppliers interested in engaging with BDUK to discuss the intention for the Framework and to access the contract terms and conditions should contact the supplier mailbox: bduksuppliers@dcms.gov.uk. Suppliers have a two week window from the date of PIN publication in which to express an interest, the deadline being 1 September 2022.

Once the Terms & Conditions have been issued to Suppliers that have expressed an interest, they will have up to 2 weeks to review and provide feedback. BDUK will consider all feedback but this may not result in changes being made. Suppliers will be invited to 121 sessions to discuss this Framework in further detail.

This PIN Notice does not commit BDUK to publishing a procurement and is intended for market engagement purposes only. The value of this PIN is indicative and is subject to change should BDUK decide to issue a procurement.

Enterprise License Agreement (ELA) for use of Geographical Information Systems (GIS) software, including desktop software (ArcGIS, ArcGIS Pro) and tools (data interoperability, analytical tools), server software (ArcGIS Server) and web-mapping and dashboard tools (ArcGIS Online). The ELA also includes technical support, access to GIS community events and professional service days helping to gain value from the investment; e.g. supporting the development of HSE GIS solutions.
The ELA is a continuation of the previous agreements and provides access for a further three years.

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

procurementMethodRationale:
GIS software underpins all science and evidence work in the Data Management and Spatial Analysis (DMSA) team. This includes continual update and maintenance of regulatory and evidence datasets for CEMHD5 (major hazard sites, explosive sites and pipelines data for land use planning, National Population Database for risk assessments), geospatial data analysis to provide evidence to other divisions (CRD, EPD, CD, SD), and the team's commercial work/collaborations. The software has been used to support HSE's response to the COVID-19 pandemic and the PROTECT National Core Study on Transmission and Environment.
The land use planning datasets are also required for the Land Use Planning web app used by all planning authorities in GB as well as commercial developers.
ESRI are world-leading developers of GIS software.
The ESRI software platform is an integrated solution, enabling data to be used to across different systems and through differing applications depending on user needs (desktop, server, online).
ESRI software is used by all other organisations that we have collaborated with across Government. This would be much harder without access to the same software. It is likely used by most geospatial teams within the UK Government.
HSE would not be able to fulfil its statutory role of providing Land Use Planning advice to Planning Authorities and developers without this software.

description:
This notice has been issued as a revision of notice 2022/S 000-035764 published on 16th December 2022. This notice contained incorrect weightings on the technical and cost criteria.
The IAC at UoB has identified a need to procure a Plasma-Focused Ion Beam (PFIB) system, which allows for:
• Dual-beam capability with field emission gun scanning electron microscopy (FEGSEM) and plasma-based focused ion beam,
• Micromachining with high milling rates,
• Sample liftout (size reduction),
• Tomography with analytical capability – integrating energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) and electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) bought separately from a third party supplier,
• Gas injection using XeF2 enhanced etch, insulator, platinum and carbon, with options of other gas species.
• Cryogenic stage and vacuum transfer capability,
• Preparation of specimens for transmission electron microscopy (TEM) while minimising FIB-induced damage, atom probe tomography (APT) and micromechanical testing.
• Electrical feedthroughs for in-situ characterisation (minimum four channels for four-point resistance measurements).
In addition to the procurement of the PFIB instrument, UoB would like to also as part of this call upgrade the gallium focused ion beam (Ga-FIB) capability of the IAC facility, by procurement of a new Ga-FIB instrument, with the capability for:
• Dual-beam capability with FEGSEM and gallium focused ion beam
• Micromachining and imaging,
• Microcantilever manipulation of specimens for TEM, APT and micromechanical liftouts,
• Gas injection using XeF2 enhanced etch, insulator and organo-metallics containing platinum, with options of other gas species.
Both of these instruments will be utilized within the Interface Analysis Centre (IAC) microscopy and materials facility at UoB, which will be used by a large number of researchers from a large number of UK, European and worldwide Universities, Research Institutes and Industry, thus the equipment and associated software must be simple and straightforward to use, robust and also be sufficiently interlocked to protect the system against accidental misuse.

Xlinks considers that the Utilities Contracts Regulations 2016 (UCR2016) may potentially apply to the award of contracts under the framework.  As a result, it is Xlinks' current intention, on a voluntary basis,  to follow the procedures set out in UCR2016 as regards the award of the framework agreement.
The framework agreement will facilitate the award of contracts through both direct awards and following mini-competition amongst relevant framework consultants.  The criteria for making awards are currently under development and will be advised to pre-qualified bidders who proceed to the ITT stage of this competition.  It is anticipated that the criteria will include relevant experience of the consultant, availability of relevant personnel, ability to meet required timescale / programme and  ability to meet target budget for a particular piece of work.  The criteria may be ascribed differing levels of importance depending on the relevance / criticality of a particular criterion to a specific scope of work.  Xlinks will incorporate greater flexibility to determine relevant criteria where UCR2016 are not applicable.

Transport for London (TfL) is undertaking an early market engagement exercise, via the publication of a Market Sounding Questionnaire (MSQ), to gauge interest from the sector on a collaborative approach to deploying Electric Vehicle Rapid Charging Hubs.
The Mayor has tasked TfL with facilitating the roll-out of EV charge points in London, in line with commitments embedded in the Mayor’s Transport Strategy. This has led to the development of four key Programmes (TfL’s Rapid Charging Programme, Go-Ultra Low City Scheme, Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Delivery (EVID) Plan and Electric Vehicle Rapid Charging Hubs) to ensure that all charging speeds and EV use cases are accounted for.
The Electric Vehicle Rapid Charging Hub programme is a first-of-its-kind within TfL and aims to invest in the deployment and operation of rapid charging hubs on TfL’s property estate for commercial benefit. The Programme differs from previous work as hub sites are based off-street and should aim to host a minimum of six rapid chargers (>50kW, with a preference for high-powered (~150kW) equipment), as well as retail and welfare facilities. The Programme is also focussed on increasing TfL’s involvement across the supply and delivery chain, with the intent to invest in the development of sites and derive long-term revenue from the operation of the infrastructure.
To date, the TfL Commercial Development team has assessed ~10,000 TfL sites to determine their feasibility to accommodate a ‘Minimum Value Proposition’ of at least six rapid chargers, waiting bays and basic retail and welfare facilities. The technical and commercial feasibility of the most attractive sites has also been rigorously tested against expected future demand for rapid charging, power availability and practical constraints, such as planning, traffic considerations and legal rights.
Through this process a long list (currently 248; constantly evolving) of sites have been identified as potentially feasible and a high priority for EV Hub development. In a first tranche, TfL is proposing to develop up to three sites, ranging in size from small (eight charging bays) to large (twenty charging bays). These sites have undergone extensive feasibility work and have been designed up to RIBA Stage 2 with support from external consultants. The initial deployment will act as a ‘proof-of-concept’ to provide TfL with confidence to take on a larger role in EV hub deployment with a continuous and growing pipeline of hub projects.
The MSQ will seek views on a number of aspects including supplier and service provider appetite, capacity and capability, as well as well as gauging the general level of interest in this opportunity.
Please use the link to access the Microsoft Form and submit your MSQ response by 17:00, 22 April 2022 - https://forms.office.com/r/t1CerK4k0R

title: Contract Modification of the Radio Network Infrastructure Replacement Reference number: RM6109 for additional services to include Radio Hardware Managed Services

description:
The MCA originally awarded a contract to telent Technology Services for the following provision;
HM Coastguard were required to monitor VHF and MF Radio transmissions from vessels at sea and provide assistance in case of emergency to prevent loss of life within the UK’s jurisdiction. In order to do this, the current network consists of 155 remote radio sites (RRS), situated around 11 000 miles of UK coastline. This network facilitates all communication transmissions to and from vessels at sea and to the HM Coastguard Watch Officers based at our 10 coastguard operation centres around the UK and the Joint Rescue and Coordination Centre in Fareham via two data centres.
The existing network that links these remote radio sites to the HMCG operations centres needed to be replaced; the reason is that the analogue Kilostream product that underpins the existing network has been withdrawn from the market in March 2020 by BT in line with a wider OFCOM deregulation of low bandwidth analogue point-to-point product types across the telecommunications industry.
Further to the award of the above contract modification to this contract has been undertaken to include services to support the RNIR Programme and to manage the MCA’s Radio Hardware by way of;
Reactive Maintenance – 24x7x365 managed maintenance service for remote radio site equipment including but not limited to repair of VHF, MF, HF, DSC and AIS radio base stations, feeder cables, antenna, microwave dishes, direction finders, monitoring equipment, modems, change control, mast and tower rigging, poles, aircraft warning lights, access management, storage, radio coverage performance and certification;
• Vessel Monitoring and Management System support to cover infrastructure components at Langdon Battery and Fairlight Down including X-Band transceivers, Directional Finders, MET Sensors and AIS units;
• The Authority corporate, RNIR, remote radio switching estate and legacy server estate.
Preventative Maintenance- Performance of regular preventative maintenance activities to assure the quality and performance of Coastguard Communications on MF, VHF, VTMS Platforms, CNIS equipment AIS and DSC. These maintenance activities and the specification to which equipment shall perform is to be devised in conjunction with the installation /engineering contractor.
Project and technical support- Full end to end management including Supplier Management, Contract Management, Service reviews, Service improvement plans, Service Delivery Material, Tower Management and Enhanced Reporting.
Spares Management and Storage Services – Spares and inventory management service including trend analysis, asset management, obsolescence management, independent analysis of stock holdings, advising on minimum and maximum stock holding levels,secure storage facilities, Airwave accredited transportations and storage and enhanced delivery for the Authority’s cloud connected hardware.

rationale: Need for additional works, services or supplies by the original contractor/concessionaire: This modification has been made under Reg.72(1)(b) - Additional services have become necessary and a change of contractor is not possible due to technical or economic reasons and the risk of duplication of costs, a change of contractor cannot be envisaged.  Given: (i) the potential ‘interoperability’ issues that would be faced by a new contractor brought in to provide the Hardware Managed Services; (ii) the economic advantages to appointing telent to provide the Hardware Managed Services; and (iii) that the increase in Contract value is less than 50%
