description:
Nanopore-based sequencing has become a highly effective next generation sequencing tool for biological research. Nanopore sequencing converts the electrical signals generated by a nucleotide strand (either DNA or RNA) passing through the nanopore into the base sequence.
This methodology was exclusively commercialized by Oxford Nanopore Technologies, allowing sequencing of long reads with real-time sequence detection and analysis. It can also provide base modification detection. The technique has short sample preparation times with low instrument costs.
The technology is a relatively new, rapidly expanding and groundbreaking, with ~79% of nanopore-related literature published within the last 5 years (determined from PUBMED publication stats).
The design of nanopore devices has given this technology greater versatility/flexibility than other sequencing platforms. Allowing work to occur out in the field (using a portable sequencing device) or within a traditional lab research setting. A portable version of Nanopore have been used in randomised clinical trial to produce real-time near-complete genome sequencing of viruses isolated from clinical samples. This study suggests a future role of this portable technique in virus infection monitoring for early detection in diverse populations. As well as analysis of human samples and long-read sequencing of bacterial genomes.
Prof Beggs research group has been as the forefront of the optimisation and deployment of Nanopore sequencing technologies in clinical research. This work that has been disseminated in multiple peer-reviewed publications (in 2018, 2020, 2021 and 2023). Beggs group have used this unique technology to address existing clinical questions such as "how we can improve HLA typing, by potentially reducing process time and cost", aiming to generate a rapid single-tube assay?
Nanopore dependent-research (within Cancer and Genomic Sciences) and service support (from Genomics Birmingham) are essential for our work and supporting the sequencing of internal and external clients, now and moving forward.
Illumina and Nanopore sequencing are currently used routinely within our labs. Both rapidly sequence DNA or RNA and produced rapid and highly accurate genomic, transcriptomic and epigenomic data.
Below are some of the specific, unique properties of Oxford Nanopore technologies (using either the GridIon or PromethION 24 sequencers).
1.	Nanopore devices (GridIon, MinION and PromethION 24) can sequence native DNA and RNA from fragment sizes of 20 bp to millions of bases for up to 5 independent MinION or Flongle Flow Cells or 24 independent PromethION Flow Cells, gaining coverage of ~30X per human genome per flow cell.
2.	The allow direct, PCR-free sequencing of DNA and RNA
3.	Providing standard (FASTQ and BAM) output files, the latter including epigenetic modifications for 5mC and 5hmC methylation apart from the standard bases.
4.	They perform Real-time sequencing, with integrated compute enabling real-time basecalling including modifications (5mC and 5hmC, high accuracy basecalling model).
5.	With real-time data analysis, e.g., aligning to reference directly from the device software.
6.	Sequencing continues until a defined coverage is met and/or define a specific run time for your sequencing run.
7.	Sequencing libraries can be used with any Oxford Nanopore device, allowing for instance to conduct library quality control on a lower capacity device prior to generating data on a high-capacity instrument.
8.	There are rapid library preparation solutions (from 10 minutes) as well as automatable, high-throughput library preparation that can be performed on various liquid handlers from as little as 3.5 hours for 96 samples.
9.	 Post sequencing, the library can potentially be covered from the flow cell, and re-sequenced on another flow cell to increase output.
Nanopore technology is the only supplier of these unique products, equipment and support services, we need to continue our specific work. Additional information: 750,000.00 per annum based over 4 years.

description:
A service-solution to provide equipment, just-in-time consumables, service and maintenance and best practice operational efficiency directions to deliver required test outcomes as agreed in key performance indicators. The contract will cover haematology, biochemistry, immunoassay and coagulation analysers with associated sample processing. Additional information: Barking, Havering & Redbridge University Hospitals NHS Trust currently has a 7+7 year contract with Sysmex UK Ltd for Pathology Blood Sciences Services that commenced on 1st of January 2019 (7 years from when the last laboratory equipment was installed). The contract affords a unilateral discretion for the Trust to enter in to a further 7 year term which was provided for in the original procurement. The Trust is waiving its right to exercise a unilateral clause within the contract and instead enter in to a bi-lateral agreement to extend the contract for a maximum of 7 years but on the basis of an initial 3 year extension with a break clause allowing for a maximum of 4 further annual extensions ( To a maximum 7 year extension).The contract extension will encompass the continued provision of comprehensive blood sciences services and complies with the Public Contracts Regulations 2015, section 72. (1) (a).

This extension is critical to supporting pathways, ensuring diagnostic accuracy and achieving the NHS England Plan and the North East London regional vision for Pathology.

This extension allows flexibility and strategic alignment should Barking, Havering and Redbridge University Hospitals NHS Trust (BHRUT) and other Pathology providers within North East London decide to transition to a formal networked solution of joint consolidation and transformation.

At present BHRUT Pathology are not formally part of a Pathology networked solution, although the Boards of BHRUT, Barts Health NHS Trust, Homerton Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, Lewisham and Greenwich NHS Trust and North East London Integrated Care Board (NEL ICB) have approved a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to agree closer working between the East and South East London Pathology Partnership (ESEL) and BHRUT.

Confirmation of non-award
The West Yorkshire Combined Authority (WYCA) is seeking a single supplier or consortium of suppliers to provide a new public transport data management system to replace its current existing single system.
The Combined Services and Assets (CoSA) system and database was established in 1999 and is a purpose-built database with Geographical Information System (GIS) functionality. CoSA is a central single data hub which is vital in enabling WYCA to process public transport information to feed multiple outputs, manage assets across the public transport network and manage transport operations.
CoSA receives data from several sources including Bus Service Registrations, Electronic Bus Service Registrations and Operator information.
The contract will be awarded for an Initial period of 4 years with an optional extension of 4 years

performanceTerms: Contract performance conditions as stated in the procurement documents

reductionCriteria: Selection criteria as stated in the procurement documents

procurementMethodRationale:
This contract provides a Combined Services and Assets (CoSA) system and database is a purpose-built database with Geographical Information System (GIS) functionality.  CoSA enables the Combined Authority to manage public transport information used locally and nationally for approximately 17,000 bus stop and shelter assets, bus and taxi service procurement and home to school transport. There are currently c.100 registered users of CoSA at the Combined Authority. Members of the public interact with the data processed through CoSA via our Real Time system, journey planners, the national bus stop record (NaPTAN) and other national datasets.
This contract will allow the Combined Authority to bespoke develop the system, as we believe the current supplier are the only organisation able to do this. This is to ensure that the system continues to deliver our imminent needs during this interim period whilst still maintaining support and maintenance for the system prior to a re-procurement. This contract award includes bespoke developments to assist in preparing data and functionality to be potentially moved to a new system following a procurement activity. The estimated length of time to carry out a specification design, procurement and extensive testing to successfully implement a working system without any interruption in service to the public is anticipated to be up to 3 years.
As a business-critical system continuity of service during any transfer between providers is essential. It is intended to procure a new provider. Due to the complexity of the numerous data inputs and outputs of the current system, it will be necessary to run any new and current system in parallel whilst a new system is being commissioned and implemented. Any new system will need to be compatible with third party applications used in the delivery of these services. To ensure service continuity, the West Yorkshire Combined Authority has taken the decision to award the Contract to current provider SYSTRA Limited, under Regulation 32 of the Procurement Regulations 2015 who we believe are the only company available in the market at this time capable of maintaining and supporting our bespoke system in its current form without service interruption. Therefore competition is absent for technical reasons.

VII.2.1.1 Nature/Extent of Modifications
This modification notice is to provide notice of a modification of the framework agreement (as defined below) to (i) extend its duration with a limited number of suppliers and (ii) increase the estimated value of the framework agreement across all lots.
This framework agreement was awarded as per publication reference 2021/S 000-017380 in August 2021 (the “Current Framework”). The term of the Current Framework was for an initial period from 1st July 2021 to 31st December 2022 with optional extension periods of up to 30 months (i.e. to 30th June 2025).

Duration Modification

NHS England has previously exercised its right to extend the Current Framework to 31st March 2025 and recently undertook a new procurement for the award of new framework agreements to commence from 1st April 2025 (the “New Framework”) for the supply of the same/similar products. The awarded value of the Current Framework was £1.2bn.
However, there are four suppliers – LFB Biomedicaments (Lots  2 and 6), CSL Behring Ltd (Lots 2, 3, 6 and 7), Bio Products Laboratory (Lot 2, 3, 6 and 7), and Grifols UK Ltd (Lots 1 and 5) - on the Current Framework who have either (i) not been awarded a place on the New Framework or (ii) have been awarded a place on the New Framework as a reserve supplier and therefore have no committed volumes or guarantee of supply (the “Absent Suppliers”) in respect of the products that they currently supply under the Current Framework (the “Absent Products”). Some patients are reliant upon Absent Products and will require switching to products supplied by suppliers awarded guaranteed supplies on the New Framework (the “New Products”). Changing a patient from Absent Products to a New Product needs to be appropriately managed. The scale of changes required to patient treatment resulting from the new procurement are higher than expected and cannot be completed prior to the commencement of the New Framework. In order to safely switch patients, more time will be required than could have been foreseen. This switching process will be undertaken over a period of time as is clinically appropriate considering patients’ needs and clinical resources. In order to ensure continuity of supply of medicines from current suppliers during the transition period, NHS England will extend the Current Framework for IVIg products by 6 months and for SCIg products by 9 months.
In order to secure continued routine access to Absent Products for a period of time to allow the safe switching of products, NHS England were required to extend the duration of the Current Framework with those Absent Suppliers in respect of the Absent Products for a period of time.
NHS England have exercised their contractual right to extend the Current Framework with the Absent Suppliers for a further 3-months to 30th June 2025 and therefore NHS England are not required to rely on regulation 72 of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 to extend for that period of time. The value of supply of products during this extended period is estimated to be c.£34,056,162.
However, a further period of time beyond that contractually entitled period was also required. As such, NHS England were required to modify the Current Framework with the Absent Suppliers so as to extend the Current Framework for those Absent Products for a further period of (i) 3-months for IVIg products  (Lots 1, 2, 5 and 6) (so to 30th September 2025) and (ii) 6-months for SCIg products (Lots 3 and 7)  (so to 31st December 2025) (the “Duration Modification”).
The awarded value of the Current Framework was £1.2bn. The Duration Modification will increase the framework value by c.£15,036,879 which is within the allowed 50% threshold.

Value Modification

Additionally, NHS England is required to increase the estimated value of the Current Framework. The estimated awarded value of the Current Framework was £1.2bn. NHS England estimates that the total requirement for purchase of products across the lifetime of the Current Framework up to the expiry of the Current Framework on 31st March 2025 will now be an increased figure of £1.6bn and are therefore increasing the estimated value from £1.2bn to £1.6bn (an increase of 33%)  (the “Value Modification”). This increase in value is due to a combination of (i) an increase in demand for products and (ii) increase in pricing of the products as a result of inflation and increase in Voluntary Pricing and Access Scheme (“VPAS”) rebate scheme. This also includes the value of the Duration Modification.

VII.2.2.2 Description of reason -
Duration Modification

The requirement to extend for that additional period of time has become necessary and is permitted by Regulation 72(1)(b) and or (c) of The Public Contacts Regulations 2015. Namely, the following conditions have been fulfilled: (i) additional supplies of products by the original contractors (i.e. the Absent Suppliers) have become necessary so as to secure continuity of products to allow the transition of patients to products on the New Framework and were not included in the initial procurement (ii) a change of contractor cannot be made for technical reasons of interchangeability with existing supplies as those patients will require switching between products over a period of time under supervision of clinicians and/or would cause significant inconvenience (iii) the increase in price of the modification does not exceed 50% of the original contract value.
Additionally or alternatively (i) the need for modification has been brought about by circumstances which a diligent contracting authority could not have foreseen (ii) the modification does not alter the overall nature of the contract as it continues to be a framework agreement for supply of the same/similar products and (iii) the increase in price of the modification does not exceed 50% of the original contract value.

Value Modification

The Value Modification has become necessary and is permitted by Regulation 72(1)(b), (c) and/or (e) of the Public Contacts Regulations 2015. Namely, the following conditions have been fulfilled: (i) additional supplies of products by the original contractors (i.e. all of those suppliers appointed on the Current Framework) have become necessary so as to secure continuity of products and were not included in the initial procurement (ii) a change of contractor cannot be made for technical reasons of interchangeability with existing supplies as patients require continuity of supply of the products on the Current Framework until the expiry of the Current Framework and commencement of the New Framework (where save for the Absent Suppliers the majority of the suppliers on the Current Framework are also appointed to the New Framework) (iii) the increase in price of the modification does not exceed 50% of the original contract value.
Additionally or alternatively (i) the need for modification has been brought about by circumstances which a diligent contracting authority could not have foreseen (ii) the modification does not alter the overall nature of the contract as it continues to be a framework agreement for supply of the same/similar products and (iii) the increase in price of the modification does not exceed 50% of the original contract value.
Finally, the Value Modification is not substantial (as set out in regulation 72(8)) and therefore is permissible pursuant to regulation 72(1)(e).

trade, treated sewage, saline, biota and sediment. Reporting limits are often required in low, or very low ranges.
This Invitation to Tender is for a contract to provide NRW with water quality and environmental analysis and for providing results in a suitable format. The contract also includes the provision of a refrigerated courier service to collect samples from an agreed location.

rationale: Need for additional works, services or supplies by the original contractor/concessionaire: This modification for additional services from RPS has become necessary whilst the CI Project is completed. A change of contractor cannot be made for technical reasons, as only RPS can meet all of our analysis requirements and changing suppliers would cause significant inconvenience and duplication of costs for NRW, as it took the first 12 months of the contract to fully mobilise this contract. The value of the modification does not exceed 50% of the original approved contract value.
