The purpose of this notice is to inform the market that SWISCo Ltd (a wholly owned company
of Torbay Council) is intending on purchasing 20 operational vehicles and heavy plant items
that are currently being hired.

title: Direct Award for the Purchase of Ex-Hire Vehicles and Plant Phase 2

status: complete

description:
SWISCo Ltd, a wholly owned company of Torbay Council, is proposing to purchase of 20
vehicles and plant which are currently being hired.

description: Second-hand goods vehicles

procurementMethod: limited

mainProcurementCategory: goods

procurementMethodDetails: Negotiated without publication of a contract notice

procurementMethodRationale:
SWISCo Ltd inherited an ageing fleet from its predecessor TOR2, which has resulted in
reliability issues affecting operational performance. Subsequently this has also proven to be
a heavy cost burden to SWISCo due to the need to hire vehicles to replace those that have
broken down.
SWISCo have the opportunity to purchase 20 operational vehicles and heavy plant items
that are currently being hired, to achieve an immediate hire-cost saving and realise savings
against the purchase price of new or second-hand vehicles.
The sale price for each vehicle has been negotiated with the supplier on an individual basis
and is not linked to any requirement for SWISCo to purchase more than one vehicle from the
supplier. In view of this each vehicle purchase or purchase of multiple vehicles of the same
type when viewed as individual supply contracts are below the regulated procurement
threshold for supplies. In issuing this VEAT notice SWISCo has taken into consideration that
due to the intention to purchase all of the vehicles within the same timeframe and to make
multiple purchases from each of the suppliers the total spend across all 46 vehicles is above
the regulated procurement threshold.
The technical reasons for purchasing from the named suppliers are:
1. The hire vehicles and plant are currently being used by SWISCo, the purchases will not
result in any reduction in operational performance due to there being no lead times.
2. The condition and operational history are also known to SWISCo, which reduces the risk
when purchasing second-hand vehicles and plant.
3. In purchasing these vehicles and plant items directly from the hire companies, SWISCo
Ltd have been quoted competitive prices which have been verified through extensive market research of equivalent vehicles for sale on both a new and used basis.

South West London and St George’s Mental Health NHS Trust (the "Authority") is issuing this tender in connection with the competitive procurement of Provision of Soft Facilities Management (FM) Services.

South West London and St George’s Mental Health NHS Trust is currently going through a period of investment and regeneration through their ‘Integrated Programme’ as new mental health facilities are developed across Wandsworth, Richmond and Kingston.

In December 2022 the brand new Trinity building opened to patients at Springfield and the new Shaftesbury building is due to follow later in 2023 - with further estate developments planned up to 2026. The new buildings will form one part of a new ‘Springfield Village’ as the Trust’s headquarters.

The Authority recognises the role it plays in each service users’ journey from them accessing services to potentially becoming part of the Authority in some way.

Similarly tackling economic inequality and modern slavery are key considerations for resource intensive services of this type.

The purpose of this procurement process is to identify a provider that can provide a professional Cleaning/Domestic Service at both hospitals and community sites and a Patient Dining and Hospitality Service at both hospitals.

The duration of the contract will be for five (5) years with the option to extend for a further two (2) twelve (12) month periods.

The Waste and Recycling Collection Services currently consist of a fortnightly Collection of Waste and Dry Recycling occurring on alternate Weeks, a Weekly Food Waste Collection and an opt-in Fortnightly chargeable Garden Waste Collection from Households that subscribe to the Service. Household Bulky Waste Collections occur throughout the Week and are dependent on the bookings made for the Service. The Authority also undertakes Clinical Waste Collections from Households that require such a service, these can consist of regular scheduled Collections and more ad hoc Collections. The Authority currently does not provide a Commercial Waste Service beyond its statutory duty, and this does not form part of this Contract. There are a small number of Households which have Weekly Collections and / or present blue Sacks rather than Wheeled Bins for Residual Waste, due to access restrictions.
The Service will also include the delivery of Street Cleansing Services, Mechanical and Manual Sweeping and Litter Bin Emptying.

description: Provision of personalised registration auction services.

description: Auction services

procurementMethodRationale:
The contracting authority,  DVLA,  considers that: the award of the contract without prior publication of a contract notice is permitted by Regulation 32(2)(b)(ii) of the Public Contract Regulations 2015; the current provider has been identified as the only suitable provider that can continue to meet the needs of DVLA within the scope of its current requirement whilst the new procurement process for the requirement in an improved form is progressing. DVLA intends to extend the current contract.
DVLA will not enter into the contract before the end of a period of at least 10 days beginning with the day after the publication date of the VEAT Notice.
DVLA has considered its options and intends to launch a new Open procurement process for this requirement, in an improved form.
Continued customer interest is vital to the requirement so, to secure continuity while a new procurement is carried out, it is deemed appropriate that the current supplier continues to provide the service. The extension period will be for up to 12 months, to accommodate the procurement process whilst still preserving 6 months post-contract-award for transition in the event of a change of supplier.

DVLA recently decided to discontinue its procurement of “Personalised Registration Auction Services” (contract reference PS/22/176) in order to consider all options including potential improvements that could be of benefit to potential bidders.
Having now considered its options, DVLA will shortly be launching a new procurement for “Personalised Registration Auction Services,” in an improved form, under ref PS/24/48 via the open competition procedure.
To ensure service continuity while the new procurement is conducted, and to preserve a subsequent 6-month period for transition in the event of a change of supplier, DVLA proposes to extend its current contract with British Car Auctions for “Personalised Registration Auction Services” (ref PS/19/104) by 9 months with the option to extend for a further 3 months.  This will extend the expiry date of the current contract by 9 months from 01/10/2024 to 30/06/2025 or to 30/09/2025 should it become necessary for DVLA to exercise the option of a further 3-month extension.

The scope of the DPS is primarily for deer culling. The culling of feral pig, feral goat and feral sheep is required on an opportunistic basis only. FLS reserves the right to deliver or procure a targeted feral pig, feral goat and/or feral sheep cull.

The buyer is using PCS-Tender to conduct this PQQ exercise. The Project code is 26299. For more information see: http://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/info/InfoCentre.aspx?ID=2343
The Contracting Authority does not intend to include a sub-contract clause as part of community benefits (as per Section 25 of the Procurement Reform (Scotland) Act 2014) in this contract for the following reason:
Most of the supply base are micro businesses, and the application of the Sub-contract clause may deter contractors from bidding for requirements. Contractors who intend to sub-contract out any portion of the services of a Contract will be required to provide a sub-contractor SPDs for all proposed sub-contractors. The acceptance of any subcontractor(s) will be subject to the approval of FLS.
Community benefits are included in this requirement. For more information see: https://www.gov.scot/policies/public-sector-procurement/community-benefits-in-procurement/
A summary of the expected community benefits has been provided as follows:
As requirements to be tendered through the DPS are unknown at this stage, Community Benefits will be expected to be delivered once a contract is awarded through a Stage 2 Tender. The Community Benefits to be delivered under contracts awarded through the DPS will be proportionate to the total awarded annual contract value of the contractor. The delivery of community benefits will be based on a points system. This system is outlined in the Appendix A - Specification document on PCS-T.
