title: Wirral Children and Young People ‘Risk and Resilience’

description:
A consistent, evidence-based, and practical approach will be developed to promote resilience and reduce vulnerability to risk and the consequences of risk-taking behaviours across the full range of needs for children and young people. An holistic approach is essential to ensure that these risks/challenges are not considered in isolation resulting in siloed services which result in children and young people being passed between services.
As new risks and challenges are constantly emerging, the offer will need to be responsive with flexible delivery driven by local intelligence of risk-related behaviours/challenges as they emerge.
The following areas are examples of the types of issues to be included in the offer:
Substance misuse (not specialist/treatment)
Anger management
Sexual health and healthy relationships/social media/safety
Healthy eating/weight management.

title: Lot 1 Monitoring of Radioactivity

description:
Lot 1 Monitoring of Radioactivity – this has two components:
a.	To carryout ad-hoc monitoring of radioactive releases, environmental measurements and short-term investigations associated with all sites regulated by the Environment Agency as part of its duties under the Environmental Permitting Regulations 2016 (EPR 16) as amended. In general, this component of the framework contract will enable in situ measurements to be undertaken, sampling and analysis of radioactivity in the environment, and of radioactive materials in solid disposals or liquid or air emissions. This component is referred to as Investigative Monitoring throughout the rest of the document. The Investigative Monitoring capability provided by this framework would also be utilised by the Environment Agency in the event of a radiation emergency.
b.	Work of a more technical nature which may include, but not be limited to, providing advice on monitoring and analysis of radioactivity in the environment, expertise on radiological instrumentation and sampling/analytical method development. Work to be undertaken as part of this component is referred to as Specialist Technical Support.

description: Sub Lot 2.1 Radiological Impact Assessment (from past or future discharges) - To carry out assessments into exposure of members of the public or non-human biota to radioactivity in the environment arising from gaseous or liquid discharges from nuclear sites (such as power stations) or from non-nuclear sites (such as hospitals and universities). From time-to-time work may be required to review data and provide updates to available assessment systems or approaches. The work will normally be office based, site visits are not normally required, although a familiarisation visit to the area around a particular site may be appropriate depending on the nature of the assessment. It is important that the outputs produced can be transferred to the Environment Agency in an appropriate format so they can be re-used by the Environment Agency with minimum difficulty.

description: Sub Lot 2.2 Environmental Radiological Protection - To provide the Environment Agency with expert technical services to fill data gaps and improve our knowledge of the behaviour (transfer, migration, and mobility) of radioactivity in the environment and the impact of radioactivity on people and wildlife.  The work will normally be office based, but site visits may occasionally be required depending on the nature of the project.

description: Sub Lot 2.3 Waste Management and Decommissioning - The objective for this sub-lot is to provide the Environment Agency with expert technical services which will improve our regulatory work relevant to the management of radioactive and non-radioactive wastes. This extends to the development of waste management strategies and environmental safety cases for waste disposal. The work will normally be office based, but site visits may occasionally be required depending on the nature of the project.

The provision of this service requires clinical facilities that are rated tier 3 and 2. The only facilities currently located in the area of operation are at two 3rd party Primary Care Trusts.
The object of this award, under Regulation 32 of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 Clauses 9, 10, 11 and 12, is to ensure continuity of Sexual Health Services.

The Nursing and Midwifery Council (the 'NMC') is a statutory body governed primarily by the Nursing and Midwifery Order 2001 (the 'Order'). The Order provides that the NMC must establish and maintain a register of qualified nurses, midwives and, since January 2019, nursing associates. The NMC regulates nurses and midwives in England, Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales. We are the independent regulator of more than 788,000 nurses and midwives in the UK, and nursing associates in England. Our vision is safe, effective and kind nursing and midwifery that improves everyone's health and wellbeing.
We use the Test of Competence (ToC) to assess the skills and knowledge of people applying to join our register/rejoin our register. The ToC currently comprises two elements and both are delivered in-person. The first is the computer-based test (the 'CBT'). The second is the objective structured clinical examination (the 'OSCE') which is a practical simulated assessment of applicants' practical skills and knowledge.
The CBT comprises of 115 multiple-choice questions in total with one correct answer to be selected out of a possible four answers.  The exam permits candidates 3 hours and is split into two parts:
•	Part A covers numeracy (15 questions, 30 minutes) and
•	Part B covers clinical theory and knowledge (100 questions, 2 hours and 20 minutes) relating to nursing, nursing associates and midwifery. We have multiple test papers in circulation for all fields of nursing, midwifery and nursing associates, examples of practise tests can be found at Pearson Vue practice tests
•	Candidates are permitted to have 3 attempts at the CBT, and if unsuccessful on their third attempt the application closes and they are not authorised to re-sit the test until a minimum of 6 months has passed.  This is to prevent candidates from rote learning and to encourage candidates to prepare fully and reflect on their previous performance.
Please note that this contract is solely for the provision of services relating to publishing and delivery of the CBT and does not cover the design or development of test content. The ToC is currently designed and maintained by the Australian Council for Educational Research (ACER).
Some key elements of this contract are outlined below:
•	Strong geographical coverage and good levels of test accessibility giving us a global reach across the world.
•	An established provision for managing all CBT bookings.
•	Established and tested exam security platform, with suitable controls to maintain test integrity.
•	Robust mechanisms to detect and prevent fraud and misconduct.
•	A marking solution and result issuing process which can be integrated with our IT platform which is currently Dynamics 365.
Further information on the CBT can be found at CBT: Test of competence
Further context and background on the test can be found in our published test specifications, and an example can be found here Nursing-test-specification.  Please note that this covers both the OSCE and CBT, noting this service is for CBT only.
We are keen to engage with perspective suppliers with experience in this type of test delivery.  We are also keen to explore the potential for innovation and hear suggestions and ideas from the market around innovative testing.
Whilst strong candidate experience is key in the delivery of a high-quality service, the maintenance of test security and test integrity is a significant aspect of this contract. The continuation of in-person delivery would necessitate robust security controls at testing sites for the prevention and detection of fraud and misconduct.
We currently test approximately 37,500 candidates per year; and test takers have historically opted to sit the test in India, Nigeria, and the Philippines. However, candidates residing in a range of countries sit our CBT monthly.
We are looking for a future supplier that can provide an end-to-end delivery service, beginning with the facility to publish test papers on their system, automatic account creation for our candidates to book their CBT, maintenance of the booking system and automatic importation of test results into our internal NMC systems.
Further details will be found in the market engagement questionnaire.  The NMC intend to invite interested parties to a market engagement event (date to be advised, but expected mid-February 2024).  Suppliers who are unable to attend the event will be able to request slides and other documentation from the event by submitting a request via our e-Sourcing portal (Atamis).
The NMC has issued this Prior Information Notice (PIN) in order to conduct a market engagement exercise ahead of a forthcoming concession services tender for the provision of Test of Competence CBT delivery.  Before tendering a new contract for these services, the NMC wishes to better understand the market and variety of options available which will help inform the eventual procurement exercise.
Providers interested in partaking in this market engagement exercise are requested to express an interest in this PIN and the Market Engagement Meeting via the Atamis e-Sourcing portal before midday on Monday 12 February 2024.

description:
The contract is for a specialist self-assessment tool with complex question logic that identifies areas of digital skills where users can improve their capabilities. Personal development resources curated within an integrated content management tool are tailored and presented to each individual user based on their responses to the questions asked. Bespoke development of the supplier’s platform was initially undertaken to create a BDC Discovery Tool that was specifically tailored to the needs of staff and students at Higher Education (HE) and Further Education (FE) institutions in the UK and internationally. Potentially Ltd recently undertook additional bespoke development work for Jisc to build new functionality to meet the needs of staff in other sectors, particularly staff in private sector training organisations and across the Public and Charitable sectors.  We anticipate substantial growth in these other sectors over the next 3 years.
Potentially Ltd owns the IPR in the source code for the platform and the BDC Discovery Tool. Jisc owns the IPR in the question sets, personas and organisational frameworks.
Jisc has undertaken pre-market engagement activities to evaluate potential alternative solutions and has not identified any product currently in the marketplace that can produce a personalized report linked to curated and tailored development resources. In addition, Jisc did not find any solution currently available that could provide the functionality to assess users at an individual level and then aggregate the data at an organisational level. Currently available solutions would need substantial further development in order to provide ALL the functionality required by Jisc’s customers.
Any alternative supplier will need a migration plan and schedule that minimizes disruption to students and staff at Jisc’s organisational customers as they are moved onto a new solution. The BDC Discovery Tool has a growing customer base, and, as of November 2023, the number of active organisational customers across all sectors stands at 248.
In addition, any alternative supplier will need to take into account that they will not have access to proprietary IPR, source code or details about the underlying tech stack used to deliver the current platform. This is likely to add complexity and technical challenge to their customer migration plans. Additional information: The value of the contract is estimated based on uptake by Jisc members. Potentially receives a share of service revenues.  The value of the contract also includes an allocation for feature enhancements over the 3-year term. The tool is for use by Jisc customers and not for Jisc's own use.

title: Capability Tool

description: Jisc Services Limited is seeking to place a 3-year contract with Potentially Limited for the ongoing maintenance and development of the supplier’s platform, which Jisc uses to deliver a Building Digital Capabilities self-assessment tool (known as ‘the BDC Discovery Tool’). Our intention is that the contract will run from 1 August 2024 to 31 July 2027.  The BDC Discovery Tool enables individual end users to determine their digital capability and provides them with a personalised report that includes relevant resources to support their personal development and growth. Anonymised usage data is extracted from the BDC Discovery Tool and visualized in dashboards that are consumed at an organisational level so that customers can see an overview of digital capabilities across their organisation.

reviewDetails: Jisc Services Ltd will incorporate a standstill period at the point information on the award of the contract is communicated to suppliers. This notification provides information on the award decision. The standstill period, which will be for a minimum of 10 calendar days, provides time for suppliers to challenge the award decision before the contract is entered into. The Public Contracts Regulations 2015 article 91 provides for aggrieved parties who have been harmed or are at risk of harm by a breach of the rules to take action in the High Court (England, Wales and Northern Ireland).

description: Educational software development services

procurementMethodDetails: Negotiated without publication of a contract notice

procurementMethodRationale:
The incumbent supplier has undertaken bespoke development of their platform to provide the workflows and logic used in the Jisc BDC Discovery Tool.  The tool has been designed around the capability and organisational frameworks of our customers and includes specifically scripted personas and a growing collection of question sets relevant to their sectors. The tool currently offers 12 question sets. A further 2 are currently planned for release and more will be added over the 3-year term of the contract.
No other supplier in the marketplace has a solution that is ready to provide ALL the functions required to serve staff and students at Higher Education (HE) and Further Education (FE) institutions, and staff in private sector training organisations and across the Public and Charitable sectors.
The BDC Discovery Tool is a mature product. There are currently a total of 248 organisations using it (75 HE institutions, 160 FE institutions, and 13 other organisations including international customers). Moving to another solution would be prohibitive in terms of the time, cost and resources required to undertake the following:
Identifying and meeting requirements for ALL the new features that would be required in any replacement solution so that it can be used by our customers and end users across all the sectors we operate in.
Undertaking the considerable development work that will be necessary to build all the new functionality required into the replacement solution.
Testing all the new features once they have been built in the replacement solution
Migrating data and content from the current solution to the replacement solution
Undertaking training to ensure users are familiar with the replacement solution
Issuing new training and ongoing support materials for users of the replacement solution
Moving to a replacement solution would be particularly disruptive for our HE and FE customers, particularly as it comes at a time when many face significant financial and staffing challenges.

Such award and extension allows for continuation of services to support business continuity at a lower cost with minimal relative additional cost of implementation. It is understood that this is an interim solution for a period of 13 months pending further review which will take into account influencing factors impacting future solutions and any activity thereafter will also be in accordance with the regulations with respect to prior publication.

title: LSMS014 - Supply of Furniture

description: Furniture

procurementMethodRationale:
The Maritime Spares Delivery Team (MS), part of the UK Ministry of Defence (the “Authority”), intends to award a contract to Varivane Industries Limited for the provision of Supply and Support of Furniture exclusively for use on board HM Ships and Submarines for a period of 2 years from February 2024. The estimated contract value is circa £6M ex VAT.
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 is no longer 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 DSPCR 2011 for technical reasons. Varivane Industries Limited, has the specific know-how, tools and means access to codified drawings to provide this requirement and are the only supplier who have the tooling and expertise to be able to fulfil the contract. The Authority does not have access to the proprietary information, technical drawings and specifications for the articles necessary to carry out or compete this requirement as Varivane has not licensed out any of the necessary information to a third party.

description: Equipment To Digitise Dental X-ray

description: Dental X-ray

procurementMethodRationale:
For approximately 20 years, Newcastle Dental School has operated a number of products utilising Planmeca Romexis software. This include a DPT units on all floors and three within Dental Radiology and units at outreach community clinics. A Small Volume Cone Beam CT and 3 Intra-oral Xray tubes. The Trust also have a VistaScan digital scanner within radiology, to acquire occlusal radiographs for the entire Dental Hospital which is already integrated into Romexis. All Radiology staff, clinicians, clinical trainers, Dental Nurses and students have all been trained using this equipment and software, so continuity of service is vital.

In terms of output the Dental Hospital sees 3500 new patients every month, of those 42, 000 patients there is the potential for all of them to require plain film imaging or CT Cone Beam.

The key requirement for this project was failover and provision of service through redundancy. This can be achieved by ensuring portability of products between I.T systems and maintaining the existing infrastructure of Romexis as a capture/delivery software. The VistaScan is able to be integrated into Romexis and accessed by any client that is on the same network, this is the same for the ProScanner 2.0. As such if there were to be a failure of a portion of the network, or “capture PC” (PC designated as a standalone client connected to a VistaScan or ProScanner 2.0), because of existing infrastructure it could quickly and easily be switched to an alternative existing client. Maintaining existing software also minimises the training requirement of staff members, clinical trainers, and students already accustomed to its operation. This equates to approximately 500 individuals.
