Therefore these roads will be incorporated into this existing Maintenance and Response (M&R) Contract for Area 9 of the Strategic Road Network following the award of the Deed of Variation. This together with the need for national alignment of the expiry dates for all of the M&R contracts, ready for their re-procurement, means that the term of the Area 9 M&R Contract will be shortened and will have a new end date of 1st July 2029 instead of 30th June 2030.

This VEAT Notice relates to a Deed of Variation to a National Highways' Maintenance and Response Contract. This Contract currently provides and undertakes all cyclical and reactive maintenance, incident response, defect rectification and severe weather delivery on the trunk roads and motorways within Herefordshire, Shropshire, Staffordshire, Warwickshire, West Midlands and
Worcestershire (National Highways Area 9) (the "Contract"). Duties also include maintenance of roadside technology, the provision of traffic management for the contractor, maintenance and incident response activities, and traffic management for others who may be working on the network.
The variation will add three new roads into the Contract (covering half the A50 to the Toyota roundabout to the west) which are currently maintained under a Design Build Finance & Operate ("DBFO") contract which is due to expire on 30th June 2026. Consequently the total value of the Contract will increase by approximately 24%. It will also shorten the Contract which will have a new end date of 1st July 2029 instead of 30th June 2030 in order to align with the procurement process for the next Maintenance & Response contracts.

performanceTerms:
A Parent Company Guarantee or equivalent form of security may be required at any time during the term of the contract. This may include where the financial standing of the applicant does not meet the required level as stated in the Selection Questionnaire. Further in formation will be set out in the Selection Questionnaire and accompanying guidance.
Applicant companies are asked to note that Highways England may decline to award the contract to the highest scoring bidder where it is already the contractor for a certain number of existing Maintenance & Response and Asset Support Contracts. This is to maintain the resilience of the Highways England network. Contract award opportunities for applicant companies may therefore be prohibited on this basis. Full details of the network resilience test are provided within the Instructions for Tenderers (IfT) document.

reviewDetails: Highways England will incorporate a minimum 10 calendar day standstill period at the point information on award of the contract is communicated to candidates. Appeals must be lodged in accordance with the Public Contracts Regulations (SI 2015 No. 102) as amended.

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

procurementMethodRationale:
The modifications to the Contract fall within the permissible grounds set out under Regulation 72(1)(e) of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 in that the modifications are not substantial within the meaning of Regulation 72(8) of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 because:
The inclusion of Design Build Finance and Operate (DBFO) roads into the Contract does not render the Contract materially different compared to when it was originally procured. The type of work originally required of the Contract (i.e. maintenance and response) is the same as that which it will carry out on the previous DBFO stretches of the Strategic Road Network, it is just a case that the total lane coverage to be maintained under the Contract increases.
Adding the additional roads would not have changed the outcome of the original procurement in any way. The Contract will be fully operated in accordance with their current terms and pricing;
As the current Contract will be operated for the new roads on the same terms and pricing, this does not alter the economic balance of the Contract in favour of the contractor;
The change does not considerably alter the scope of the Contract as the works and services provided will remain unchanged and the roads have been included in this Contract because they are adjacent in terms of geographical scope also. Any increase in scope is also mitigated by a shortening in Contract term;
This is not a change in contractor.

In addition, National Highways also considers that the exemption at Regulation 72(1)(b) would in any event apply. This permits additional services or supplies that have become necessary and were not included in the initial procurement where a change of contractor cannot be made for economic or technical reasons and another supplier/procurement would cause significant inconvenience or substantial duplication of costs for the contracting authority; and where any increase in price does not exceed 50% of the value of the original Contract.
The Deed of Variation ensures continuity of service on the Strategic Road Network and aligns with National Highways' wider asset delivery and procurement strategy, thereby safeguarding public value and network integrity.  The Contract is being shortened to better align with the re-procurement strategy for all Maintenance & Response contracts.  It would provide significant technical difficulties and duplication of procurement costs for National Highways to procure a contractor simply for this short stretch of network given the current re-procurement strategy.

name: WIRRAL COMMUNITY HEALTH AND CARE NHS FOUNDATION TRUST

description:
From April 1st, 2025, the Trust was awarded the contracts to deliver Paediatric Exodontia Services and Adult and Paediatric Special Care dentistry in Wirral.
The purpose of paediatric exodontia and special care dentistry is to provide specialist oral healthcare for adults and children from birth to adolescence whose needs cannot be managed by their general dental practice (GDP).
This includes adults, children and young people (CYP):
•	with extensive oral disease,
•	whose oral health care is complicated by intellectual, medical, physical, social, psychological and/or emotional factors/disability.
•	with developmental disorders of the teeth and mouth.
•	who are either too anxious or too young to accept routine dental treatment
Dental treatment under general anaesthetic (DGA) is an essential adjunct to providing care where the surgical intervention is complex or to those adults and children who are cognitively immature, highly anxious or who have a medical condition where general anaesthesia is the most appropriate or only way to deliver dental treatment. In order to meet NHSEI IPC guidance the service must be delivered in a theatre with appropriate ventilation.
To deliver this in Wirral, the Trust has subcontracted Wirral University Teaching Hospital NHS Foundation Trust to provide facilities and staffing at Arrowe Park to support DGA. Informal arrangements have been in place for many years however an NHS standard subcontract was put in place in 2022/23 which was extended to 2024/25.
The Trust intends to award a contract an existing provider following direct award process C
The intention is that the contract will run from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2026 at the cost of £310K with the potential to extend for a further 12 months.

description:
The Scottish Government has committed to building a system of school age childcare that provides care before and after school, all year round, to support parents and carers – particularly on low incomes – to access secure and stable employment.
The School Age Childcare Transformational Change Programme was established to deliver this commitment. The Programme is taking a phased approach to policy design in order to test and refine what an effective system will look like in different communities, and to adapt and scale different approaches. This includes work within six ‘early adopter communities’ (EACs) to understand how to co-design local systems of childcare which will meet the needs of families living within those communities. This work is targeted at families most at risk of living in poverty, as set out in Best Start, Bright Futures, the Scottish Government’s tackling child poverty delivery plan.
In the 2023 Programme for Government, Scottish Government also made a commitment to expand the EACs to include families with younger children for the first time. This will mainly focus on children up to age three, given that all three- and four-year-olds (and eligible two-year-olds) are already entitled to 1140 hours of funded early learning and childcare. In the coming year the EACs will conduct engagement work with families to better understand their needs in relation to childcare for younger children. Some limited delivery will also begin for families in selected communities where this engagement work has already taken place.
The Scottish Government, on behalf of the Scottish Ministers, wishes to commission a process, impact and spend evaluation of the EACs. The contractor will be required to build on a first phase of evaluation of the EACs (which involved development of a theory of change and a monitoring and evaluation framework, an early process evaluation, and an evaluability assessment) and work with the Scottish Government to meet the aims outlined below.
This next phase of work is to provide robust findings on the impact of these community-based childcare projects on children and families, how these changes are enabled, and how the resources put into the EACs have been used. These findings will in turn inform both continuous improvement for local partners and wider local and national childcare policy.
The aims of this evaluation are:
1.	Scope and refine a detailed evaluation approach, building on a preliminary evaluability assessment.
2.	Work with leads and partners in the EACs to refine and improve monitoring and evaluation data, as required
3.	Conduct a process evaluation across all 6 EACs
4.	Conduct an early impact evaluation across all 6 EACs
5.	Conduct a spend evaluation across all 6 EACs.
