The successful Supplier will be required to provide Cleaning services for Lincoln UTC.
The current annual value of the contract is approximately £68,500.00
Mr Stuart Hamer - Principal
Having worked at Lincoln UTC since January 2016, initially as the Vice Principal, and now as the Principal… I am incredibly proud of who we are and what we stand for. Teaching is not easy, yet after 21 years in education, I am more enthusiastic than ever before, and surrounded by colleagues that thrive in our truly unique school environment.
We have leading industry standard equipment, and we are housed in a grade II listed building that is complimented by a new £9 million Science and Engineering facility.
Motivated students choose to travel from across Lincolnshire, to join us in years 10 and 12. At Lincoln UTC they have a unique opportunity – to train as scientists and engineers in the exciting context of real-life industry experiences.
Graduates of Lincoln UTC are well rounded, confident and articulate. Academically, technically and practically experienced in science and engineering, they are comfortable working in industry and are prepared for a lifelong journey of learning throughout their working careers.
Our students are committed to the highest standards of achievement and attention to detail, seeking to be the best they can be in their chosen field. Their ability to work effectively, both independently and as team members, and their innovative, creative and dynamic attitude towards working and learning, ensures that they are both highly employable and successful in obtaining places at universities or with employers of their choice. Lincoln UTC graduates are the very best scientists and engineers their potential allows as they finish their schooling at 16 or 18.
I am sure you will be excited by what you read on our website and have further questions that you wish to explore. I encourage you to attend one of our many Open Days, events and activities so that you can meet our staff and students.
Lincoln UTC is a well-established College situated in the heart of Lincon, which includes a multitude of outlets currently where the successful contractor will be required to deliver a service and meet the requirements of the specification from the contract commencement.
The contract being tendered on behalf of the client at Lincoln UTC is for three years, starting from 4th of April 2025  until 31st of March 2028 , with the option to extend for a further term of three years on the same terms and conditions excluding the right to further extend. The contract will be fixed price in nature, with the Contractor invoicing the Client for one-twelfth of the annual cost on a monthly basis to the College.
Whilst the monthly charge will represent one-twelfth of the contract cost, a reconciliation will take place monthly to reconcile the actual hours worked within the contract. If the hours worked are less than those budgeted a credit will be required by the College. This credit will be calculated by dividing the annual contract cost (fixed cost) by the number of annual input hours to arrive at a contractual cost per hour, this will then be multiplied by the number of hours due to arrive at the fiscal credit.
The College require that the tendered number of hours are worked at all times and the successful contractor is expected to have a system in place to cover for both planned and unplanned leave.
Please see SQ document for more information. Additional information: Please note this is a contract award notice, this contract has already been awarded.

procurementMethod: limited

procurementMethodDetails: Award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition

procurementMethodRationale:
Award of a contract without prior publication of a call for competition in line with Regulation 10(1)(a) for the acquisition or rental, by whatever financial means, of land, existing buildings or
other immovable property, or which concern interests in or rights over any of them; of PCR (2015)
The Homelessness Reduction Act 2017 (HRA 2017) places new legal duties on English local authorities, to provide advice and assistance to any eligible person who is homeless or at risk of homelessness, irrespective of their priority need status. The HRA 2017 extends the number of days within which a person is considered threatened with homelessness from 28 to 56.
The new legislation imposes greater responsibilities on councils to prevent homelessness and provide advice and assistance through a tailored plan to assist an applicant to retain or secure accommodation.
The Care Act 2014 sets out the duty of a local authority to ‘meet the needs’ of a person who needs care and support. Where these needs are significant a duty to secure accommodation is likely to arise.
The sector comprises of Housing associations, Local authorities, charities and voluntary sector organisations.  The way these services are delivered varies, some organisations own their properties and provide the Housing management and Housing related support.  Some are the Managing agent, with lease arrangements for the properties from the landlords who are either Housing Associations or Private sector organisations and provide the Housing related support.
14 bids were received of which:
11 Bids for Lot 1 - The provision of Supported accommodation for 23 Single people with a Mental Health diagnosis
5 Bids for Lot 2 - The provision of Homelessness Prevention Housing related support service for (Adults) at risk of Homelessness
6 Bids for Lot 3 - The provision of Homelessness Prevention Housing related support service for Young people at risk of Homelessness
6 Bids for Lot 4 - The provision of Supported Housing service for 80 Single Adults at risk of homelessness
(Bidders were able to bid for more than one Lot hence why the number of bids received per Lot outnumber the total bids received).
1 was a non-compliant bid and did not progress for the latter stages of evaluation.
Award this contract is primarily focused on ensuring a safe continuation of services and maintaining consistency with minimal disruption for the individuals currently residing at the service. These individuals are receiving crucial support as part of their mental health recovery

This procurement covers the delivery of a scoping phase that will form the foundation for a future Collective Action Project that will tie into existing work in Norfolk and cover Cambridgeshire and Bedfordshire.

This research project will use appropriate evidence-based behaviour change theories to identify factors (e.g. personal, institutional, or systemic) that are barriers or enablers to embedding the CF approach across Northumberland County Council and key partners.
The results of this analysis will support NCC and relevant partner organisations to understand and address these barriers and enablers to move further and faster to adopting the Communities First approach.
Methods and measurement
The Provider will propose their methodology in their tender submission for this work, but broadly it will be expected to include:
• Selection and application of appropriate evidence-based behaviour change theory/theories to underpin the analysis.
• Identification of the target behaviours that professionals and/or organisations need to adopt in order to implement the Communities First approach (also involve identifying current behaviours that do not support the approach and need to change). This would involve initial scoping work with NCC and key system partners to identify the target behaviours.
• Use of appropriate qualitative research methodologies to analyse barriers and enablers for professionals and the wider organisation to delivering Communities First approach, using the evidence based behaviour change theory (see point 1 above).
• Include both retrospective evaluation of adoption to date and analysis of anticipated barriers and enablers for wider adoption of the Communities First approach.
• Provide relevant recommendations to support successful implementation and maintenance of Communities First approach across NCC and key system partners.

description:
Every part of the region should have a strong local offer of numeracy, literacy, language and digital skills for communities that supports good health & well-being, builds confidence, improves inclusion & integration, develops key life skills and prepares learners for employment, self-employment or further learning.
A place-based approach should ensure a focus on first engagement opportunities for communities under-represented in learning and disadvantaged in the labour market, providing a clear pathway towards level 2.
This offer will take place in community settings as short first steps provision with a progression pathway onto an Adult and Community Education Service.

description:
Every part of the region should have a strong local offer that provides any residents who need it with a good education up to level 2. This should include:
A comprehensive offer of high quality, locally available opportunities to improve literacy and numeracy, including through statutory entitlements e.g. Functional Skills Qualifications
A purpose-driven offer of English language learning up to level 2 that supports the cultural capital, social capital and vocational development of learners as they improve their language skills
A digital skills offer that helps residents access online support services needed for health, welfare, training or employment
Integrating vocational training at level 2 as a component to support progression to further learning, work or in-work progression. This should target those occupations where high vacancy demand exists, where there is a greening of job roles to support net zero and in occupations likely to have a higher proportion of workers without qualifications
The offer should be relevant and adaptable to the 47% of adult residents without foundation skills qualifications who are in work. Flexible and accessible delivery models should enable learners to study alongside wider commitments. Strong partnership arrangements and personalised support should ensure clear progression pathways into level 2 provision or good work.
A place-based approach should ensure a focus on those areas/people with the lowest skill levels and lowest levels of participation in adult education.

description:
Every part of the region should have a strong into-work offer aligned to local labour market opportunities. This should include provision that supports:
young people to transition into the labour market
unemployed adults into good work
economically inactive adults into the labour market, including those who have a health condition or disability
in-work progression out of low pay, including for those in the gig economy and on zero hours contracts
people in employment, experiencing systemic disadvantage due to disabilities, gender, ethnic background or other characteristics
retraining for career change, including for those without good foundation skills
Working with specialist providers and in partnership with employers, the offer will deliver the skills that businesses need, providing clear progression pathways into good work alongside effective wraparound support for learners.
The offer should include flexible delivery models that are accessible for residents who work shifts or who can only attend at weekends and/or evenings.
A place-based approach should ensure a focus on those areas/people with high levels of labour market insecurity, including unemployment, inactivity, in-work poverty and/or risk of redundancy.

description:
Every part of the region should have a higher-level skills offer aligned to regional economic priorities. This should include:
A strong and broad offer at level 3, accessible to those in employment and affordable for those in low paid work
A flexible modular offer at level 4/5 aligned to the requirements of businesses, to support retraining or career progression
An accessible leadership and management offer at level 4 and above that supports SMEs to improve productivity and growth and is targeted on residents currently under-represented in L&M training
Working with universities, colleges, specialist providers and in partnership with employers, the offer will serve the growing requirement for higher level skills across the region – to strengthen business, improve productivity and attract inward investment.
The offer should be accessible for those in work, with more part-time, evening, weekend and hybrid delivery to fit around work and wider commitments of learners.
A place-based approach will ensure that higher-level skills opportunities are closely aligned to local/regional economic opportunities and strategies, including Plan for Growth and Investment Zones.

This notice is being used to inform the market of the establishment of a Flexible Procurement System (FPS) for Technical Education, Skills and Employment Support by West Midlands Combined Authority, which will from this point on be known as the WMCA Technical Education, Skills and Employment Support Flexible Procurement System (TESES FPS).
WMCA have opted to establish an FPS under the Light Touch Regime rules, within the Public Contracts Regulations (PCR, 2015) to deliver our Technical Education, Skills and Employment Support services provision. An FPS is an overarching agreement that allows FPS Providers who are admitted onto it to subsequently compete for Call-off Contracts through further competitions. It operates in a similar way to a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) but will have set windows for evaluation of Applications to join. This will allow WMCA to continually expand our network of providers and welcome new FPS Providers that are able to meet our requirements for the duration of the FPS.
The TESES FPS will follow-on from the WMCA Adult Skills Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS), established in November 2022, to offer an expedient route to market and direct access to the provider base for WMCA’s Skills and Employment Support requirements. The refresh of this route to market has been made in order to align with WMCA’s Employment and Skills Strategy and to streamline the bidding process for employment and skills providers. Through engagement with key stakeholders, WMCA identified where improvements could be made to the Adult Skills DPS for the benefit of WMCA, our providers and our residents.
The FPS will include five categories of delivery, linked to pillars within the Employment and Skills Strategy. In order to be included on 4 of the categories, Applicants will be required to demonstrate their understanding and capability of delivering in those category areas. The categories will include;
- Building strong and inclusive communities
- Providing a good education up to level 2
- Moving residents into employment and supporting career progression
- Meeting future skills needs at level 3 and above through upskilling and reskilling
- Innovation
Although this FPS is being established in order to facilitate immediate and easy access to the Adult Skills and Employment Support Market, WMCA will not be mandated to use it for every requirement.
Once established, Call-off Competitions will be run under this FPS in order to find suitable FPS Providers to deliver individual Technical Education, Skills and Employment Support provision Call-off Contracts. Call-off Contracts will be awarded to the successful FPS Provider/s in line with the award criteria stated in the Call-off ITT documents, which will be formulated using the Most Advantageous Tender (MAT) principle, comprising of Technical, Commercial and (if applicable) Social Value criteria.
The deadline for submission of initial applications is Monday 31st March 2025 at 23:59. Once initial applications have been evaluated and FPS Agreements awarded to successful applicants, the FPS will re-open for further applications.

rationale: Need for modification brought about by circumstances which a diligent contracting authority/entity could not foresee: As the Workplace Services Programme has progressed several unforeseen delays arose that has driven spend levels to a much higher level than the original profile. The spend room available in the contract is now much less than anticipated and an increase to the contract value is required to ensure vital work can continue.

description:
The contract forms a key part in supporting DWP deliver the Workplace Service Programme (WPS), for the re-procurement of business critical services that enable DWP buildings to operate and function for more than 20 million customers and claimants. Given the scale of WPS and its importance to the delivery of DWP services, additional resource is required on the programme to support its delivery and ensure efficiency and best practice throughout to ensure that milestones are met on time and encouraging innovation and providing recommendations to improve delivery.
The high-level scope of the contract is as follows:
•	Procurement Support
•	Existing Contracts Demobilisation
•	Supply Chain Mobilisation
•	Change Management
•	Transition Management
•	Cutover
DWP Estates require the continuation of the services EY are providing as they are essential to the success of the WPS programme. These are an effective PMO function that has the capacity and capability to support the Workplace Services Programme, to minimise business disruption and ensure the new contracts are delivered on time. As well as access to additional Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) to deliver the Workplace Services Programme.
This Change Request is for the continuation of the existing service that is delivered by EY. Due to shifting timelines for the WPS Programme the Mobilisation of the WPS contracts have been delayed by DWP. This has had an impact on EY delivering some of the outcomes in the current specification.

description:
This procurement relates to the Council appointing an operator to undertake the management of three (3) leisure facilities within Milton Keynes including Bletchley Leisure Centre, Woughton Leisure Centre and Windmill Hill Golf course.
The estimated value of the leisure facilities is £6.5million (Excluding VAT) for the 15 year period (taking into account the 5 year extension) This estimated value of the management of the 3 leisure facilities is indicative only.
The Authority is of the view that TUPE is likely to apply to some staff but economic operators will be expected to undertake their own due diligence.
Following the recent ruling that local authorities can now treat leisure services as non-business for VAT purposes, the Authority wishes to understand the potential positive financial impact to them of this approach to the management of their leisure facilities. Tenderers will be required to base their financial submission on a traditional leisure management contract (Standard Bid); however, the Authority would also like to understand the benefits and risks of the Agency Model (Alternative Pricing Option). This is explained further in the procurement documentation. For the purposes of Section 74(1)(a) and paragraph 1 of Schedule 8 of the Procurement Act 2023, Milton Keynes City Council may during the term of the Leisure Operator Contract apply an agency model arrangement to replace the traditional leisure management arrangement. The Council reserves the right to modify the contract terms and conditions to accommodate a move to the agency model arrangement.
The Authority is delivering a major low-carbon infrastructure investment in the form of a city scale District Heat Network (DHN), a key component of its commitment to achieving net zero carbon emissions by 2030, as outlined in the Authority’s Strategy for 2050 and Council Plan 2024-2026. In the first phase of the DHN, low-carbon heat will be delivered to several public buildings across the city, helping to reduce reliance on gas combustion heating. As part of the Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme (PSDS), the Authority has been successful in its application to convert three major public buildings: the city library; Civic building; and Woughton Leisure Centre. Therefore, Tenderers should be aware that Woughton Leisure Centre will move across to the DHN during the term of this contract and that the successful Tenderer will be required to work closely with the Authority to facilitate this transition. This is explained further in the procurement documentation.
