The Contract Award has been made following direct award process B under the Provider Selection Regime.

This contract is  awarded to an existing provider for an existing service. Although we would not restrict the number of providers who deliver these LCS services provided they meet the contract and specification criteria, the primary reason that these services can only be delivered by this group of providers (pharmacy) is because they are required to hold a contract via the Community Pharmacy Contractual Framework (CPCF) and deliver the LCS alongside these services; the LCS is designed to enhance the (CPCF) contract and not stand alone, therefore, interdependency between the two services is paramount. For this reason not every Pharmacy delivers every LCS.

The provider is paid on an activity basis based on local prices.

The contract runs from 01/04/2024 to 31/03/2025.

This VEAT is to inform the market of the ICB's intention to direct award a contract to Age UK, whilst a procurement process is planned to test the market.
The Take Home and Settle Service (THAS) is to safely support patients' discharge from hospital. Short term practical support is provided in the person's home or other interim accommodation to support independence and prevent readmission to hospital. The service enables individuals to regain confidence, motivation and skills to self-manage, and encourages them to engage with the local community to improve socialisation and wellbeing.

The service is for people over the age of 18 who, after treatment, do not need to be admitted to hospital, or who can be safely discharged from hospital. The service assists in enabling safe discharge and preventing readmission following discharge by undertaking pre-discharge checks where appropriate, and by accompanying people home and staying with them for a short period to ensure that they settle safely back into their home environment. They also ensure that patients have information on how to access services and activities.

The award of this contract will have a positive impact on young people aged 15-17 who are looked after children (LAC) or care leavers.
This is an enhanced model, providing the only example of a piece of work dedicated to this cohort in the East of England to date. This is based on the Premier League Advantage Mentoring programme. Advantage is a unique partnership between two community assets and anchor institutions - the charitable arms of football clubs; known as Club Community Organisations (CCOs), and their local NHS.
The flagship mental health programme increases access to CAMHS and helps tackle waiting times and reduce Health Inequalities by providing weekly 1-2-1 mentoring support for young people aged 11-21 with mild-moderate mental health and emotional wellbeing support needs.
The programme provides key interventions and assistance for young people to proactively manage their mental wellbeing, re-establish aspirations and a sense of wellbeing.
Young people are screened by a mental health practitioner within CAMHS, who then allocates them a mentor within the CCO. The young person meets with their mentor weekly at the CCOs inspirational facilities for up to six months.
Young people receive relational, goal-based mentoring within a setting that many find more inspiring and engaging than their local CAMH service. The programme is aimed at young people who either do not meet criteria for CAMHS or who would not engage in a traditional mental health intervention.
In addition, the CCO Mentors receive specialist mental health support through weekly supervision with their local CAMHS clinician.
Ipswich Town Football Club Foundation has provided Active Blues, A Healthier Community social prescribing programme since September 2023 and is commissioned to continue provision until 2026. There have been no incidents or issues raised. The addition of this service will enable ITFC Foundation to enhance their offer, with a dedicated offer for mentoring and support for young people aged 15 to 17 who are in care or care leavers.
ITFC Foundation has provided a high-quality safe service as a trusted community organisation, empowering people to make safe choices and is the only Club Community Organisation in the locality.
The contract will be awarded with an initial contract term of 1 year (12 months) (the "Proposed Contract"). The total aggregated value of contract will be £44,000 (the "Proposed Contract").
The ICB believes the Most Suitable Provider Process under the Provider Selection Regime is an appropriate process to award this service and will engage with providers who express an interest.

The WMCPC intends to commission an Admission and Triage Unit (ATU) for children and young people within the West Midlands (aged 13-18) who require intensive mental health support and a brief admission for assessment if required. Referrals will be via Form 1.

The service and provider will need to be registered with the Care Quality Commission to provide mental health services.
The indicative services aims are to:
•	Provide brief admission and a  safe place for a young person with an escalation in their risk behaviours to be admitted for triage and further assessment – this will be under the MH act [not to be confused with Place of Safety 136.
•	Provide access to inpatient care out of hours where the alternative may be within an inappropriate setting i.e S136 or ED Department and the destination is admission to hospital and not to a crisis facility or crash pad.
•	Give time to the young person to de-escalate from their situation in a safe place and allow professionals further time to assess and determine appropriate service for the young person to access
•	Reduce lengthy inpatient admissions to Tier 4 CAMHs inpatient units and/or reduce inpatient bed days through early access to de-escalation
•	Provide a range of assessments and therapeutic interventions to support the young person’s discharge and de-escalate from their situation.

The proposed service model should cover the following minimum requirements (these may be subject to amendment due to concurrent development work)
•	Service should be focused on de-escalation and expert assessment scaling down of young person’s risk factors and presenting behaviours towards discharge.
•	There should be ongoing risk and assessment during the time the young person is with the ATU.
•	Admissions should be time limited and the young person should be discharged within 14 days of admission or transferred to an appropriate inpatient unit if longer term admission indicated via the assessment.
•	Therapeutic input should be on providing evidence based short term interventions focused on understanding the triggers for the current crisis, coping strategies, reduction in risks of harm and where appropriate providing interventions within the group so shared experiences can support in finding solutions.
•	Overarching aim is removing the need for an inpatient admission through concentrated crisis management and to reduce the burden on community CAMHS crisis services .
•	Service should be operational seven days per week, 24 hours per day.
•	Service should have a maximum of 6 beds for overnight care and a separate day area to facilitate ‘on the day’ discharge where appropriate.

This is a new service model for Children and Young People’s Intensive Mental Health Services (CYPIMHS), as such, the successful Provider is expected to be fully operational, providing services ideally from 1st January 2025, but at the latest from 1st April 2025.

The Services described in the background document and questionnaire relate to the Contracting Authority's intention to establish a contract or contracts for an estimated three-year initial term, with the option to extend for a maximum of two further years at the Contracting Authority’s discretion. The extension(s) may be by a single period or successive periods of twelve months.  An indicative overall total budget value for the initial three-year term of the new contract(s) is in the region of £1,000,000 excluding VAT. For the avoidance of doubt, this exercise does not constitute a call for competition to procure any services, supplies or works for SDNPA, and the Authority is not committing to carrying out such a process.  Participation or non-participation in the pre-procurement market engagement process shall not prevent any supplier participating in a potential future procurement, nor is it intended that any information supplied as part of the pre-procurement process shall place any supplier at an advantage in a potential procurement process. Participation in the pre-procurement market engagement procurement process will be at each supplier's own cost. No expense in responding to this process will be reimbursed by the SDNPA.

There is a requirement for two S8 FACS for two departments of the university split across tow colleges, CMVM (college of medical and veterinary medicine), marked as requirement 1 and CSE (college of science and engineering), marked as requirement 2.
Requirement 1 CMVM.
Researchers at the Institute for Regeneration & Repair (IRR) at the University of Edinburgh, the largest global institute dedicated to research in inflammation, regeneration and repair, seek to understand the cellular and molecular basis of human diseases to identify new therapeutic targets. IRR unites three Centres for Inflammation Research, Regenerative Medicine and Reproductive Health.
To understand fundamental disease processes, the cellular composition of human tissues needs mapping to determine how different cell types communicate with one another and how this dialogue changes in the context of disease. This endeavour has been progressed by technological advances, including the ability to determine the nature of cells dissociated from solid tissue at a single cell level. These advances, collectively referred to as ‘single cell multi-omics’ have transformed how cell lineages are defined. No longer can one or two surface proteins define a cell. Instead, multi-parameter, high dimensional analysis must be used to determine cell populations and the different behavioural states that these lineages can adopt in health, disease and tissue regeneration and repair.
Requirement 2 CSE.
The Discover S8 will be installed in the Institute of Immunology & Infection Research (IIIR), part of the College of Science and Engineering, on the Kings Buildings campus of the University of Edinburgh. It will be available to researchers across the College of Science and throughout UoE, including the College of Medicine and Veterinary Medicine and the Roslin and Moredun Institutes. It will complement existing equipment in IIIR, in CSE and in affiliated Institutes: we have recently installed a Sony ID7000 spectral analyser in IIIR, which allows us to measure 45 fluorescent parameters on individual cells. This new purchase, the Discover S8, enables us to assess those same 45 parameters and then physically separate the cells based on their measurements, facilitating exciting downstream applications such as transcriptional, proteomic and functional analysis.
The imaging capability of the Discover S8 fits well with the imaging expertise in the CSE, especially that within the Discovery Research Platform for Hidden Cell Biology, with research questions, analysis techniques and training plans spanning both platforms.

procurementMethodRationale: The University of Edinburgh intends to award a contract to Becton Dickinson UK for the provision of a Discover S8. This equipment adds unique sorting and imaging capability, enabling cells not only to be measured but to be separated according to their measurements, and including shape and complexity as some of the measurements possible. These features will facilitate several exciting lines of research, including understanding how cells divide, how immune cells protect from infection, how metabolic enzymes control cell function, how algae function and can be used in industrial processes. No other singular piece of equipment within the market is available to provide the outputs required for the research outcomes explained.

description:
The provider is commissioned to deliver locally enhanced services for the Barnsley population integrated with their additional pharmacy contracts. CPV 85149000-5 pharmacy services.

These contracts are awarded to an existing group of providers. Although we would not restrict the number of providers who deliver these LCS services provided they meet the contract and specification criteria, the primary reason that these services can only be delivered by this group of providers (pharmacy) is because they are required to hold a contract via the Community Pharmacy Contractual Framework (CPCF) and deliver the LCS alongside these services; the LCS is designed to enhance the (CPCF) contract and not stand alone, therefore, interdependency between the two services is paramount. For this reason not every Pharmacy delivers every LCS.

Somerset Independence Plus (“SIP”) deliver Home Improvement Agency Services (“HIA”) and are a part of Somerset Council.
SIP fulfils an important function in relation to prevention and early intervention and is essential to the process of providing Disabled Facilities Grants (DFG).
Disabled persons, (“Clients”) may qualify for a disabled facilities grant towards the cost of providing adaptations and facilities to enable the Client to continue to live independently.
Such grants can be provided by local councils in accordance with Part I of the Housing Grants, Construction and Regeneration Act 1996, the Regulatory Reform (Housing Assistance) (England and Wales) Order 2002 and the Care Act 2014 that gives councils greater powers to provide discretionary assistance. Councils may give discretionary assistance in addition to mandatory disabled facilities grants provided that any assistance given must be in accordance with the council’s published policy.
Once a Client is awarded a Disabled Facilities Grant, the Client may either:
(i)	elect to have the grant paid directly to them and the Client will then arrange for the Works to be undertaken by a contractor of their choosing; or
(ii)	the Client can ask the Council to procure a contractor on their behalf and to apply the Clients grant directly to the payment of the contractors costs on behalf of the Client.
The Framework Agreement contemplated by this procurement exercise seeks to identify suitable contractors that the Council can use in the event that a Client requests the Council to procure services on a Client’s behalf.
Tenderers should note that notwithstanding the use of the Framework Agreement and the payment arrangements that will apply, that  all resulting contracts will be between the Client and the successful contractor that undertakes the Works but will be governed by the terms and conditions of the proposed Framework Agreement. This is because relevant legislation enables a council or its authorised agent to pay grant direct to a contractor and to ensure that the contractor has completed the Works in accordance with its own criteria and to the satisfaction of the Client.
