Derbyshire County Council will be inviting tenders from organisations for the provision of domestic heating and home improvements. The contract length will be for 1 year. The contract budget will be approximately £300,000 per annum.
At least 40,000 households across the county live in fuel poverty and a few thousand of these are vulnerable owner occupiers who are in extreme poverty.
Derbyshire County Council Adult Social Care and Health acknowledges that living in a cold or unfit home will have an adverse effect on the mental and physical health of vulnerable householders.
This situation will put householders at risk of admission to hospital or care or prevent them from returning home.
We are interested to hear the views of organisations on the delivery of domestic heating, plumbing, insulation, electrical, minor building and clearance work for vulnerable owner occupiers across Derbyshire (Excluding Derby City).

title: Procurement of 70x High Mobility Truck Variant (HMTV) Platforms and Associated Support Items

description: Armoured military vehicles

mainProcurementCategory: goods

procurementMethodRationale:
The Vehicle Support Team (VST), as part of the UK Ministry of Defence (MoD), have placed a contract with Supacat Limited for the procurement of additional HMTV platforms and associated support items such as CES and training support.
In accordance with regulation 4 of The Defence and Security Public Contracts (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019 (SI 2019/697) this procurement falls to be regulated under the provisions of the Defence and Security Public Contracts Regulations 2011 as amended (in particular by SI 2019/697 and SI 2020/1450).  Prior publication of a contract notice in the Official Journal of the European Union was not appropriate.  It is considered that the award of the contract without prior publication of a contract notice in the UK e-notification service (as required by the relevant legislation) is lawful in accordance with Regulation 16(1)(a)(ii) of the Defence and Security Public Contracts Regulations 2011 for Technical Reasons.
This is because procuring an alternative HMTV platform solution is not considered reasonable in this instance due to the significant additional technical and interoperability complexity that would be introduced, including but not limited to platform interoperability issues, including safe recovery procedures, safe transport procedures and safe integration with weapon systems, all of which are currently established for the current in-service Supacat HMTV platforms and would introduce a level of risk that is not acceptable to the Authority.
In addition, it would not meet the Authority’s requirement to introduce different platforms with different support solutions when deployed on contingent operations.
Existing modifications and theatre specific role fits would not be compatible with an alternative platform without significant effort to integrate.
Increased training burden associated with a mixed fleet of platforms which would include new training material to ensure safe operation of platforms does not meet the User’s requirement and set pre-deployment training activities.
Supacat Limited are the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) for the HMTV platform(s) and they are the sole manufacturer of the HMTV vehicles and owners of the IPR. The Authority does not own or have a right to obtain or provide to third parties the proprietary information and documentation regarding these platforms. Manufacture of these platforms by a third party is not considered possible without direct OEM support and access to the proprietary information. Therefore, as the OEM, Supacat Limited are the only economic operator capable of manufacturing this capability and meeting this requirement.
This vehicle is currently deployed on multiple Operations around the world and further procurement is required to mitigate shortfalls against the current fleet as well as Future Soldier structures. As such, procurement of anything other than the HMTV model from Supacat Limited would fail to meet the Authority’s requirement and would introduce a level of risk that is not acceptable to the Authority.

This purpose of this notice is to inform the market of a contract awarded to Stellar Healthcare Ltd commissioned by NHS Hertfordshire and West Essex Integrated Care Board (HWE ICB) following the successful conclusion of a due diligence lead provider process for an all age Integrated Urgent Assessment and Treatment Centre for the population of Hertfordshire and West Essex.
The contract approach is a lead provider model (provider collaborative).
HWE ICB sought to identify a capable lead provider in order to commission a collaborative approach for the delivery of an all age Integrated Urgent Assessment and Treatment Centre, that supports the vision and aims of the national and local access delivery plans for urgent and emergency care and primary care.
This approach aligns with the 2022 Health & Social Care Act which set out the requirement for systems to create ‘Provider Collaboratives’. The aim of these Provider Collaboratives is to bring together public providers of NHS services (incl. primary medical care and acute trusts) to work together at scale for the benefit of populations.
Delivering the service through a Provider Collaborative will enable the ICB to better manage rising demand, increase the quality of service delivered to patients, and improve efficiencies creating better sustainability.
The maximum contract duration for this service is 7 years (5 years initial plus 2-year extension provision).
The maximum aggregate contract value for this service is £16.8m (exclusive of VAT):
- (maximum of £12.0m initial 5-year period from 1st November 2023 to 31st October 2028) + (maximum of £4.8m 2-year extension provision from 1st November 2028 to 31st October 2030).
The Authority is publishing this Contract Award Notice in the Contracts Finder in accordance with the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (as amended by The Public Procurement (Amendment etc.) (EU Exit) Regulations 2020).

description: Building construction work

mainProcurementCategory: works

procurementMethodRationale:
Due to the EANI’s desire to develop and design a procurement strategy for the future term service contract that takes cognisance of representations made by the market; additional works required for special educational needs schools and the late exiting of the incumbent contractors across three lots and the consequent added pressure on the relevant supporting lots, it has become necessary to extend the contract until 31 May 2024 to facilitate the development and design of a new procurement. To ensure value for money and to assist the procurement strategy for the future term service contract, the EANI shall have, at its absolute discretion, the ability to terminate the contract by giving the contractor written notice of its intention to terminate.
Regulation 72(1)(c) permits this extension due to unforeseen circumstances which a diligent contracting authority could not have foreseen, the overall nature of the contract is not altered and Modification value is does not exceed 50 % of the original contract value. This contingency includes sums to permit work in other Lots (as per the contract and Regulation 72 (1) (a)). To secure continuity, the provisions of the contract as referenced in VEAT 2021/S 105-278055
remain.
Regulation 72(1)(b) further permits this extension as a change of provider:
(i) cannot be made for economic and technical reasons as requirements of interchangeability or interoperability of services procured under the original procurement and given the need to ensure continued access to EANI schools and facilities and could result in partial/total closure of schools; and
(ii) will cause significant inconvenience and duplication of costs.
EANI envisages new contract award by 31/05/24.

rationale:
Need for modification brought about by circumstances which a diligent contracting authority/entity could not foresee: It has become necessary to extend the contract until 31 May 2024 to facilitate the development and design of a new procurement. Modification value is GBP 4 000 000 which does not exceed 50 % of original contract value. The EANI shall have, at its absolute discretion, the ability to terminate the contract by giving the contractor written notice of its intention to terminate. To secure continuity, the provisions of the contract as referenced in VEAT 2021/S 105-278055 remain.
Regulation 72(1) (b) further permits this extension as a change of provider:
(i) cannot be made for economic and technical reasons for reasons of interchangeability and interoperability with the initial procurement; and
(ii) would cause significant inconvenience or substantial duplication of costs.

This option has not been exercised. Instead, this notice shall extend the contract until 31 May 2024 with the further option for EANI, in its absolute discretion, terminate the contract by providing the contractor with written notice of its intention to terminate the contract.

description:
The Chilbolton observatory operates a 25m diameter, prime focus, parabolic reflector antenna with an F/d ratio of 0.36. The antenna was commissioned in 1967 and has for many years been used with an S-band radar fed from the prime focus point. The main feed is undergoing an upgrade to implement monopulse tracking. At the same time the observatory would like to add a wide band X-band radar to the antenna for simultaneous operation with the S-band radar. The intention is to use the S-band radar for tracking and ranging of satellites while the wide bandwidth X-band radar is used for imaging.
The antenna was commissioned in 1967 and there are no CAD drawings for the structure. Contractors may wish to visit the site to conduct a survey of the structure and check mounting points, access to the backing structure etc that will become important in the design, installation and alignment of the feed tower and the sub-reflector.
It is not thought possible to integrate an X-band feed with the S-band monopulse feed at prime focus. The solution proposed is one used in satellite communications ground stations of having the S-band  feed at the prime focus of the reflector and the X-band feed in a tower mounted in the centre of the dish forming a cassegrain arrangement with a frequency selective sub reflector.

title: The Provision of a Sefton Council Young People and Families Substance use Service

description: The contract will be renewed after either after the expiration of the core period of contract (5years) or after 72 months or 84 months depending on whether the extension options are taken up or not.

description:
The pattern of substance use among young people is changing, both in terms of reported prevalence and complexity of the problems faced by the young people who use services. While recent years Sefton has seen a decline in the number of young people recorded as entering specialist substance use services, substance use continues to be an issue for young people with cannabis and alcohol remaining the most commonly reported substances for under 18-year-olds in Sefton
Young people who have substance use problems often have complex needs. This often involves poor mental health and self-harm, and sometimes experience of criminal or sexual exploitation. These young people need a combination of specialist substance use service and wider health and support services.
Building resilience within an age-appropriate model of young people and family substance use service delivery is central to enabling young people to develop the confidence and social capital that are protective factors against vulnerability to substances and involvement in criminal activity.
Substance use can also have a devastating impact on families. Families can support and aid recovery, but they also ofen have their own support needs. Specific support is also required for families with parental substance misuse treatment needs, this must be integrated and co-ordinated at a local level.
Intergenerational substance use is a pattern of substance use passed on within families – a pattern which can be hard to break without support and interventions. Evidence from family intervention programmes demonstrates that the lives of children and young people can be significantly improved where substance using parents are provided with targeted interventions and specialist service support that considers the needs of the whole family.
Universal prevention is also an important part of addressing local substance use. Providing school based education and wider substance use interventions plus awareness raising activity and information for young people and parents is important in developing an understanding of substance use and attendant risks and accessing help and support.
Sefton Public Health are seeking to commission an integrated model of young people’s and families substance use service , combining universal, targeted and specialist substance use treatment for young people aligned with family focused interventions where parental substance use is a factor. The service is an important part of the local substance use treatment system providing support to some of the Boroughs most vulnerable young people and families.
The specialist integrated substance use service for young people and families will support the ambition within the 2021 national 10-year drug strategy – From Harm to Hope, for 50% more young people to receive specialist substance use interventions, preventing longer term use into adulthood.
1st April 2023 to 31st March 2028 with the option for 2 further extensions, each of 1 year.
