The UK Atomic Energy Authority (UKAEA) is the national research organisation responsible for the development of fusion energy.
The Fusion Skills project seeks to expand the footprint of UKAEA’s award-winning apprenticeship training programme, which provides real-world training in a workplace setting. The project aims to deliver a fully equipped skills academy at the West Burton STEP site to support STEP, local employers, and the supply chain with the skills required to build and operate a prototype fusion powerplant. This will expand on the work already underway at UKAEA’s Culham site.
Four key training sectors are Power Engineering, Nuclear Design, Energy Storage, and Robotics.
UKAEA is looking for a body of training providers (consisting of lead partner and supporting partners as required to deliver the full technical training programme in the areas identified) to form a collaboration that will deliver the broad training needs for fusion research and the supply chain at the STEP site. The majority of this training would be delivered at the new bespoke built training facility at West Burton. However, we are also open to exploring possibilities for training topics and volume that could be delivered at the facilities of our collaborators.
The ideal lead training partner will already have the capacity and capability to deliver level 3-7 apprenticeships (we are interested in partners who can provide any of the individual levels or the full range required) in all or some of the subjects required with the proven ability to partner with other providers to deliver the full suite of requirements. They must also be within a reasonable travel distance to the West Burton site.
UKAEA anticipates that training will be able to commence from September 2026.
Full information, including a breakdown of training areas, a proposed site map and a survey is included in the Supporting Information document available for download in this PIN. Additional information: This procurement will be conducted via a collaboration process.

description:
BSO require a managed service to cover management, maintenance, and support of the
Regional GP OOH IT Service environment. The system is hosted in the BSO Datacentres and is supported via a managed service with DXC.
The services are required to provide continued management maintenance and support of the Regional GP Out Of Hours Clinical information system and the supporting IT services that
enables its operation. The Regional GP Out of Hours (GP OOH) Service provides for urgent conditions, a comprehensive, safe and efficient Out of Hours Service to the Northern Ireland
population, who are also entitled to General Medical Services (GMS) until the patients own GP surgery is next open.
DXC as the managed service provider provide critical services ensuring the continued operation and support of the GP Out of Hours IT System.  The services DXC provide are listed above.  Their experience in supporting this complex technical environment has been built up over the past twelve years.  They have implemented their proprietary Platform X management tool into the infrastructure to streamline software maintenance and upgrades within the IT environment.
The managed service provides contractual, reporting, and performance management of Advanced as a subcontractor.  Advanced provide the software (Adastra and Odyssey) that the GP OOH service depends on to provide the Clinical System solution.  The software is licensed for use by BSO via a contract with DXC.  This relationship has also been in place for over 12 years.
Moving to an alternative provider incorporating all of the required managed services provided by DXC is not possible in the available timeframe.  Transferring the technical support services, experience, and expertise that DXC provide to another supplier without an appropriate knowledge and skills transfer process would be extremely high risk to the continued operation of the GP Out of Hours service and could not be done safely within the time currently available.  We estimate it would take at least six months to safely transfer the support of these services to another provider and this would require both DXC as the current provider and the new provider to be involved jointly in the hand over process.
Failure of the OOH service means that patients, by default, will attend the already overburdened Emergency Departments.

region: IE

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

procurementMethod: limited

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

procurementMethodRationale:
•	Due to the existing DXC relationship with Advanced, the design, and support of the GP OOH system.  BSO could not simply contract directly with Advanced as Advanced do not offer the required support services etc. (rather they offer only the licences to use the required software etc.)
•	Moving to an alternative solution will require extensive development and configuration to meet the requirements of the GP OOH service in NI.
•	We estimate it would take between three and six months to safely transfer the support of these services to another provider if one were available.
•	DXC provide significant technical services to support the OOH service as part of the TPA contract.   They manage the technical environment on which the solution is hosted providing technical support for Citrix, the SQL database, platform X, and the end user client device support.  They also provide contract and performance management support to the existing solution.  The solution will not function without the continuation of the technical and other services provided by DXC in conjunction with the licences and software from Advanced.

title: Fixed Bed Bioreactor

description: Cytometers

procurementMethodRationale:
This one-off requirement, for  a single fixed-bed bioreactor, for the production of viral vectors for advanced cell and gene therapies (using mammalian cell culture), had to be medium-scale, GMP-compatible, and had to be suitable for process development and GMP-compatible clinical manufacturing. The selected instrument had to provide a colonisable surface area for cell growth of 10-30m2 with working media volumes between one and up to four litres, and the possibility of integrated in-line harvest of the product.

Analysis of different suppliers’ instruments, made it clear that there is currently only one suitable instrument to fulfil the requirements of an intermediate-scale fixed-bed bioreactor, noting that the colonisable surface area or potential current competitor’s instruments were unfortunately either too small , or massively too large for the criteria outlined above.

This VEAT notice refers to the extension of the contracts awarded under contract award notice 2020/S 022-047826. The current contracts relate to the purchase of supplies on particularly advantageous terms and as such it is not viable to tender for these supplies at present.
It is intended that a procurement process will be carried out to put new arrangements in place during the extension period.
The contracts will be extended by 12 months from 15th December 2023.
The original tender was issued to establish a NTW OJEU portfolio agreement for gas, half hourly electricity and non-half hourly electricity. The portfolio is intended for use by Cumbria, Northumberland Tyne and Wear NHS Foundation Trust (previously Northumberland Tyne and Wear NHS  Foundation Trust) and will be available for use by various NHS trusts and all contracting authorities within England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland as defined by Regulation 2 of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 No 102, including, but not limited to the contracting authorities in the DPS supporting information document titled Appendix 6 - List of defined groups of contracting authorities.
This notice relates to contracts awarded under the portfolio gas and portfolio half hourly electricity categories.

reviewDetails:
A  10 day standstill period will take place following the publication of this notice. The last day of the standstill period will be 17th November 2023. The earliest the contracts will be awarded is 18th November 2023.
Appeals can be directly raised via the contact points detailed in Section VI.4.1) of this notice in accordance with The Public Contracts Regulations 2015 No 102.

procurementMethodDetails: Negotiated without publication of a contract notice

procurementMethodRationale:
This VEAT notice refers to the extension of the contracts awarded under the contract award notice 2020/S 002-047826. The energy market has experienced a long period of extreme prevailing market conditions which have now begun to improve slightly. The current portfolio contracts are however still particularly advantageous in comparison to the current market. Re-tendering would likely significantly increase costs, risk service and also risk supplier stability; therefore, the decision has been taken to extend the current contracts by 12 months.
It is intended that a procurement process will be carried out to put new arrangements in place during the extension period.
The contracts will be extended by 12 months from 15th December 2023.

TfL has carefully considered its entire requirements for Workforce Management. Whilst "Core WFM Capability" has high commercial availability in the marketplace,  core WFM functionality which incorporates all four of the "Critical Success Criteria", identified by TfL as a result of its failed 2014 WFM procurement is available only from a single provider.
The Smart Deployment and Geofencing of Passport is unique and shall allow TfL Operations to actively manage emergency situations across its network in real-time.
UKG is the only economic operator that can provide this combined WFM capability which critically, also requires minimal integration with the existing TfL SAP estate to create a fully native integrated single solution. Additional information: 3 Year Fixed Term plus one year optional extension.

procurementMethodRationale:
Each potential route to market for each component of the overall  OWFM solution was evaluated for its relative benefits and risks.
The recommended route to market chosen (Dimensions via GCloud/Passport via Supplier Terms) shall ultimately produce two forms of contract:
Dimensions and the associated Professional Services- shall be compliantly called off under GCloud terms which shall produce a standard CCS GCloud Call off agreement for the Dimensions software and associated professional services.
Passport and the associated Professional Services- shall be procured under a direct award by Single Source for the following reasons:
Kronos Systems is the only economic operator that has the exclusive intellectual property rights to provide TfL with its specified technical requirements which contain TfL's Critical Success Criteria, listed below.
1) The solution must be proven to work with SAP ECC6.0, S/4HANA & SuccessFactors for Payroll and recognised as such by SAP.
2) A seamless end user experience (whereby the solution is able to present TfL core HR data) to end users in such a way they need not 'flip' between multiple screens or applications
3) A comprehensive single approach to service management to TfL. Singular accountabilities (with SLA's) between the software providers of the overall solution suite
4) To meet TfL minimal Must Have functional and non-functional requirements

Contractors will be expected to work with the in-house service and interface with its systems to provide an effective repair reporting facility. The contract will be for a period of five years with the option to extend for one further period of five years.

title: Cash First Learning and Evaluation - Lot 1 - Learning Partner

description: There is an optional 3 month extension that may be utilised by Scottish Ministers.

description:
The Scottish Government wants to work with local partners towards our shared ambition of ending the need for food banks in Scotland, as set out in our recently published Cash-First Plan.
Our two-year Cash-First Programme (‘the Programme’) will provide funding and practical assistance for up to eight local Partnerships to collaborate and deliver activities that improve urgent access to cash in a crisis, generating evidence that can be shared to inform future policy and practice.
The Scottish Government is seeking to procure the services of a Learning Partner for this Programme. The Learning Partner will provide each Partnership with advice to inform and refine their approach and will facilitate peer-learning across the Partnership cohort. The overall aim of the role is to establish an enabling environment for cash-first activities and to provide the Scottish Government with timely, robust information on the Programme.
This specification sets out what is required, provides background information on the Programme and further outlines the rationale for the procurement. The specification makes suggestions on method, but bidders are encouraged to propose alternative methods for carrying out this work within the available budget and timescale.
The Scottish Government is also seeking to appoint an organisation to undertake an independent evaluation of the Programme. The evaluation services required are set out in the ‘Schedule 1B - Lot 2 - Specification’ document. Tenderers should submit bids for lot 1 or lot 2 only, to maintain the independence of the evaluation.
It should be noted that successful bidders across the two contracts will be expected to share some data and resources in order to effectively fulfil the Programme objectives. Specifically, the Learning Partner will be expected to contribute to the development of the evaluation framework, develop a joint Data Sharing Agreement and regularly provide evidence on the activities delivered to the evaluation team, and to engage in research conducted by the Evaluator.
The specific remit of the Learning Partner is to provide advice and facilitate learning that helps to maximise the effectiveness of cash-first interventions. The activities and approach to this work are detailed below:
Role: to drive improvement by (1) providing tailored advice to each Partnership
(2) delivering a series of peer-learning events between the Partnership cohort, and (3) gathering evidence for the Programme evaluation.

This specification sets out what is required, provides background information on the Programme and further outlines the rationale for the procurement. The specification makes suggestions on method, but bidders are encouraged to propose alternative methods for carrying out this work within the available budget and timescale.
The Scottish Government is also seeking to appoint a Learning Partner to facilitate improvement and learning within and between Partnerships, and to support the gathering of evidence for the Programme evaluation. The Learning Partner services requirement is set out in the ‘Schedule 1A - Lot 1 - Specification’ document. Tenderers should submit bids for lot 1 or lot 2 only, to maintain the independence of the evaluation.
It should be noted that successful bidders across the two contracts will be expected to collaborate and share some data and resources in order to effectively fulfil the Programme objectives. Specifically, the Evaluator will be expected to seek the Learning Partner’s views on the evaluation framework, develop a joint Data Sharing Agreement and support the Learning Partner to identify and supply evidence that is relevant to the evaluation.
The specific remit of the Evaluator is to provide an independent view on the impact of the Cash-First Programme as a whole, with a final report anticipated in Spring 2026. They will draw on monitoring reports from Partnerships and evidence compiled by the Learning Partner, as well as undertaking interviews with Partnerships and a cross-section of people supported through the activities delivered. The Evaluator will also produce topical good practice resources such as case studies across the two years of the Fund.
The activities and approach to this work are detailed below:
Role: to assess implementation and impact of the overall Programme and inform future policy and practice by (1) developing an evaluation framework, (2) evaluating the Programme and (3) publishing reports and resources.
