The SHED 5 Framework Agreement enables Contracting Authorities to access innovative solutions for the social housing sector quickly and compliantly.
Following a tender process, a list of pre-approved and awarded suppliers is established. Contracting Authorities will down-select their most economically advantageous (MAT) supplier for their specific requirement via the SHED portal, using the information provided on supplier capabilities and framework pricing as a guide.
Pricing captured at Framework level provides an indicative baseline. Given the emerging and diverse nature of SHED solutions, final pricing is normally bespoke to each Call-Off Contract and agreed directly with the selected supplier under the Framework terms.
This model combines the assurance of pre-vetted suppliers with the flexibility to tailor pricing and specifications to meet individual needs.

buyerCategories:
This Framework Agreement may be used by all current members of PfH at the time of the FTS notice and those contracting authorities that become a member of PfH during the period of the Framework Agreement. This includes all contracting authorities across England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland listed on the following page of the PfH website:
http://procurementforhousing.co.uk/permissible-users/
This includes registered providers of social housing; registered social landlords; the Northern Ireland Housing Executive; public authorities; local authorities; ALMOs; central government departments; schools, colleges, universities and other education establishments; hospital trusts, ambulance services and other NHS organisations and services; fire and rescue, police and other emergency services; passenger transport services; charities and other third sector organisations and any wholly owned subsidiaries of the above organisations.

description:
Established in 2004, Procurement for Housing (PfH) is a national procurement consortium dedicated to the social housing sector and supported by the National Housing Federation (NHF), Chartered Institute of Housing (CIH) and HouseMark. Collectively our Members manage more than 90% of UK’ social housing stock, with PfH helping them to achieve efficiency savings using a wide range of services including framework agreements, dynamic purchasing systems, spend analyses, strategy reviews, consolidated billing and comprehensive reporting. PfH is a contracting authority under section 2 of the Procurement Act 2023 and a centralised procurement authority under section 1(4) of that Act.
Please refer to www.pfh.co.uk for additional information.
PfH is administered by Inprova Limited and is headquartered in the North West of England with over 20 years of expertise and experience offering a complete procurement solutions package across outsourcing, technology and consultancy. By integrating procurement services and technology, Inprova operates as a delivery partner, supporting business performance improvement for the public sector.
PfH intends to establish The Social Housing Emerging Disruptors (SHED) 5 Framework to promote innovation through establishing national arrangements to provide innovative goods, works and services to the housing market and the wider public sector.
The first Social Housing Emerging Disrupters (SHED) Framework Agreement was launched in January 2022, comprising 18 innovative solutions. The aim was to create a framework of innovation permitting start-ups, small and medium sized businesses and the voluntary sector as well as established larger companies to offer their innovative products and services to the public sector. The second SHED framework (SHED 2) comprising a further 20 suppliers with a range of innovative solutions was launched in January 2023 and was shortlisted for the 'Innovation Procurement Project of the Year' Award by Built Environment Network. SHED 3 commenced in January 2024. SHED 4, comprising 17 solutions was launched in January 2025.
To reflect the emerging nature of innovation, a fifth SHED Framework (SHED 5) will be procured in Autumn 2025. The solution will enable PfH Members to procure a range of products and services that offer real and innovative benefit to the housing and wider public sector. The framework will provide successful suppliers with the opportunity to promote their innovation and will allow fledgling markets to test their true potential, providing the foundations for success and wider adoption across the public sector.
The Framework Agreement will operate on a national basis, providing an offering suitable for members of PfH in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland and other public bodies permitted to use the Framework Agreement. Suppliers will not be excluded for not being able to supply all regions.

In line with the Procurement Act 2023 and our commitment to support innovation and ensure the SHED Framework remains accessible, transparent and beneficial to all parties, we will operate a structured engagement process for suppliers with innovative solutions.
Suppliers who believe they have a product, service, or approach that could add value to the public sector will be invited to participate in an Innovation Discussion with our team. The purpose of these sessions is twofold:
1.	Understanding the Framework – We will explain the SHED Framework, its objectives, and how it operates as a compliant route to market for the public sector. This will ensure suppliers have a clear understanding of the framework structure, requirements, and
opportunities.
2.	Exploring Innovation – Suppliers will have the opportunity to present their innovations, highlight the benefits, and discuss how these could be delivered effectively through the SHED Framework.
We are particularly committed to reducing barriers for SMEs and new market entrants by:
•	Offering early engagement opportunities to understand their solutions.
•	Providing clear guidance on compliance and procurement processes.
•	Support suppliers in navigating requirements so that their innovations can be accessed by the public sector in a fair, open and competitive way.
Through this engagement process, we aim to create a collaborative environment where suppliers can confidently explore the suitability of the SHED Framework as a route to market, while ensuring members can benefit from innovative, high-quality, and compliant solutions.

This notice details the intention to award a contract under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR) 2023 - Direct Award Process C.

The award decision-makers were members of the following forums:
• Surrey Heartlands ICB Commissioning, Contracting and Commercial Committee
• Surrey Heartlands ICB Executive Team
No conflicts of interest were identified.
The existing provider was assessed against the key criteria which were weighted according to importance in terms of service delivery and scored satisfactorily against the assessed criteria as follows:
Quality and Innovation 25%
Quality is foundational in providing healthcare services and the whole model of integrated neighbourhood teams, in a community environment and for a vulnerable cohort of people, demonstrates innovation in the delivery of joined healthcare.
The Surrey Downs Health & Care Model integrates urgent, planned, proactive, and specialist services through a single joined-up pathway and the Integrated Neighbourhood Team Blueprint facilitates shared care planning.
Specialist Services operate under a consultant-led, hub-and-spoke model to ensure equitable access to expertise across all neighbourhoods, while Community Hospitals provide step-up and step-down care, rehabilitation, and outpatient services that directly reduce acute hospital demand. This fully integrated model of care has been shown to:
•	Reduce Hospital Admissions and Length of Stay
•	Improve Patient Experience and Continuity
•	Enhance System Efficiency and Responsiveness
•	Empower Workforce and Enable Smarter Governance
•	Support Equity and Localised Innovation
Strong quality metrics, safety initiatives, clinical governance, and continual assessment and improvement ensures high quality standards and patient care, alongside a commitment to agile change and innovation as required. Quality and Innovation are highly valued for this service alongside Improving access, reducing health inequalities, and facilitating choice and
Integration, Collaboration & Service Sustainability such that these are weighted equally highly in significance, particularly as poor care and an inability to adapt leads to poor outcomes.
Improving access, reducing health inequalities, and facilitating choice 25%
Ensuring services reach all patient populations and are accessible by them, especially vulnerable groups, is critical to NHS principles and the services under delivery. Addressing inequalities, providing wrap around care and supporting people holistically is the essence of this service and the model in which it operates, preventing gaps in the delivery of care and missed opportunities for preventative initiatives across diverse communities. Choice can be expressed and accommodated by the nature of the care coordination approach offered.
Service planning is driven by robust population health data which shapes where and how services are deployed, ensuring they are responsive to the greatest need.
Neighbourhood Boards, chaired by local authority CEOs, guide investment and prioritisation at a community level, embedding services within local governance structures. This mechanism ensures that the Core20Plus cohort - including high-intensity service users and those with frailty - are actively targeted for proactive care, narrowing inequality gaps.
Integration, Collaboration & Service Sustainability 25%
Effective collaboration enhances service efficiency, ensures seamless patient care interactions and prevents duplication of efforts. The multi-agency coordination and workforce integration offered is a key tenet of the service, strengthening the overall healthcare system in Surrey Downs.  Evidence is exemplified by Surrey Down Health & Care's mature, place-based model which supports nationally recognised Integrated Neighbourhood Teams (INTs), which operate with devolved budgets, a shared workforce, and integrated leadership. Governance operates as a Joint Venture under a Consortium Agreement, giving all partners an equal voice and requiring decisions to be made by consensus. This structure fosters genuine co-ownership of outcomes and has been critical to sustaining service delivery over the past seven years.
Value 15%
Financial sustainability is essential but should not compromise the aforementioned Key Criteria.  Value is clearly demonstrated through SDHC's strong track record of delivering financial sustainability alongside high-quality, person-centred care. Tangible cost savings are evident in the integrated MDT model, which has reduced A&E attendances, non-elective admissions, and GP contacts.  Beyond financial metrics, patients, carers, and staff consistently report high satisfaction, valuing the integrated, responsive, and personalised care the service model provides. SDHC maximises resource use and avoids duplication, delivering measurable savings alongside improved patient outcomes. The model eliminates duplicate tests, multiple points of access and repetition, provides for upskilling and varied deployment opportunities for staff and reduces churn and the need for recruitment and training expenditure.
Social Value 10%
Social Value is clearly evidenced through sustained commitment to community engagement, workforce wellbeing, environmental responsibility, and partnership working. Social value is embedded through active collaboration with voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) partners.
Stakeholder engagement is embedded into service planning through structures like the Lay Partner Group, Neighbourhood Boards, and voluntary sector partnerships, ensuring that service design reflects lived experience and community priorities. Continuous feedback loops with citizens, carers, and frontline staff enable rapid adjustments to services while strengthening trust and ownership.
Standstill Period and Regulatory Context:
This is a Provider Selection Regime (PSR) intention to award notice. The awarding of this contract is subject to the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 and the Procurement Act Regulations 2023 do not apply to this award.

Under the Procurement Act 2023, a direct award is permissible for technical reasons in situations where a competitive tender would lead to disproportionate technical difficulties when operating or maintaining existing goods.
If the MBBR65 units are turned off site operations would be at significant risk of instability. It is therefore unfeasible to remove the units, making it necessary to make the installation permanent.

title: Market Engagement Security Provision for Supported Hostels

description:
Southwark Council is looking to re-provide security cover across its supported hostels. The Council currently operates 5 supported hostels in the Borough: Manor Place, Jo Richards House, David Barker House, Northcott House and Keyworth Street Hostel. Support is given in a range of complex support needs from Domestic Violence, Substance Misuse, Mental Health and Offending.
The core focus of future provision is on ensuring that vulnerable adults residing in the 5 council-run supported hostels are provided with the right level of security to safeguard them and to meet their needs.
This is done by providing controlled access to the hostels out of hours and enforcing the schemes’ rules such as preventing unauthorised overnight visitors, ensuring compliance with noise, anti-social behaviour and other laid down procedures for when the support staff working day ends.
The principal duty of the Guards is to be visible at their station throughout the required hours, ensuring that unauthorised persons do not gain access to the building. However, the Specification (in process of being written as part of the procurement) also stipulates a range of other requirements, including assistance to residents, fire safety and evacuation, building checks, door management, welfare checks on the most vulnerable, harm minimisation-training in sharps, use of Naloxone etc.
Suppliers must first and foremost have a minimum of 2 years' experience of safeguarding vulnerable adults in a supported hostel, foyer and/or other similar accommodation or care setting and be able to demonstrate and evidence that the staff they employ on this contract understand trauma informed approaches to safeguarding such residents.
One of the Social Value requirements of the successful tenderer will be to employ local staff where possible offering employment opportunities to local people.
Another key aspect of the procurement will be based on innovative ideas for assisting those customers living there to cope with their diverse and complex needs as well as demonstrating the ability to bring expertise and learning from current delivery elsewhere likely to benefit Southwark’s hostels.
Suppliers must be able to evidence relevant levels of training and licencing, and how this will equip each officer employed on this contract with the necessary skills to provide a better service to the client group resident at these hostels.  For example, MABO or Healthcare Security Officer Training, as well as other bespoke training courses for all its staff working in this sector, including relief staff, in areas such as Safeguarding Vulnerable Adults, administering life-saving drugs and procedures around Handover, responding to Alarms, Dealing with aggressive abusive behaviour or the potential overdose of a resident as well as other situations such as reporting an observation and who to report it to, dealing with onsite theft and Responding to internal incidents, fire, medical etc.
Suppliers should be established (minimum of 2 years) and specialised in delivering this type of provision (i.e. safeguarding and security services) within Housing, Foyer or Social Care environments.
Suppliers need to be able to show that they are aware of and geared towards the challenges of attracting and retaining staff in this work environment and that any person working on site would have not only the relevant training but the requisite previous experience.
Suppliers will also need to demonstrate that they are able to draw on reserve pools and/or move staff of the right calibre and credentials around to meet any staffing gaps in order to ensure continuity of service on a daily basis.
The requirement is for a minimum of two guards to be on site at each hostel outside of core hours, 365 days a year to safeguard and assist residents as well as facilitate emergency evacuation if required (making a minimum total of 10 security personnel on duty at any one-time). The designated shift hours are 8pm-8am Monday to Friday (12 hours) and 24 hours on Saturday, Sunday and Bank Holidays. In all this equates to a total of 108 Hours of cover every week plus Bank Holidays.

This contract has been awarded via Direct Award Process C, in accordance with The Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023 (PSR).
The provider selection process was based on five key criteria, each weighted to reflect its importance in service delivery, value, and sustainability:
Quality and Innovation - 20%
Ensuring high-quality care and encouraging innovation are fundamental to improving patient outcomes and service efficiency. Providers must demonstrate their ability to deliver effective, evidence-based care while embracing innovation to enhance service delivery.
Value - 20%
Cost-effectiveness is essential to ensure the long-term sustainability of the service while maintaining high standards of care. This weighting reflects the need for providers to deliver high-quality services within budget and demonstrate efficiency in resource allocation.
Integration, collaboration, and service sustainability - 20%
Integration between providers, collaboration across healthcare services, and long-term service sustainability are key to ensuring seamless patient care. Enhanced patient record-sharing, coordinated care pathways, and strong partnerships contribute to a more efficient and effective service.
Improving access, reducing health inequalities, and facilitating choice	 - 20%
Equitable access to hearing aid services is a priority, ensuring patients from all backgrounds-including those in underserved areas-receive timely care. This criterion also supports patient choice, allowing individuals to select the provider that best meets their needs.
Social Value - 20%
The service must align with NHS Sussex's commitment to environmental, economic, and social sustainability. Providers will be evaluated on their ability to support local employment, reduce their environmental impact, and contribute to community well-being.
The decision to award the contract to Outside Clinic was made through review of the above structured evaluation of key criteria, selection standards, and PSR compliance, which demonstrated that Outside Clinic continues to provide a high quality service for our population whilst ensuring the best value and service continuity for NHS Sussex.
The assessment of the current service is as follows:
Quality and innovation
The service is led by qualified audiologists and an appropriate skill mix within their team. The assessment and fitting can only be done by staff that are either suitably registered or supervised by a registered practitioner.
The provider is required to provide monthly local quality requirement reports, which provide metrics on patient safety incidents, complaints, translation, DNA, Mandatory training, appraisal, supervision, professional standards, family and friends test and infection control. There have been no irregularities highlighted to the ICB over the last year.
The service specification and contract requirements require the service to be compliant with IQIPS and OC is accredited for domiciliary and are reviewing with UKAS the need for further accreditation.
Value
The arrangement represents value by avoiding the mobilisation and integration costs of appointing a new temporary provider, maintaining existing pathways and systems, and preventing potential additional costs from service disruption. It delivers continuity of care and safe patient transfer within a proportionate, time-limited contract, ensuring resources are used effectively during the 6-month notice period.
Integration, collaboration and service sustainability
The decision to continue with the incumbent provider during the 6-month notice period supports local and national NHS plans by ensuring service continuity and safeguarding patient care during the transition. The arrangement facilitates collaboration between the incumbent, incoming providers, and the ICB, enabling coordinated patient transfers and maintaining integrated care pathways. This approach secures the stability of high-quality audiology services and minimises risks of disruption, aligning with NHS objectives for sustainable and patient-centred service delivery.
Improving access, reducing health inequalities, and facilitating choice
This short-term continuation ensures uninterrupted access to audiology services for all existing patients, preventing gaps in care that could exacerbate health inequalities. While statutory patient choice is not applicable for this non-consultant-led service, the planned transition to alternative providers will maintain opportunities for patient choice where multiple providers are commissioned, supporting equitable access and patient-centred care.
Social value
The short-term continuation of the incumbent provider supports economic stability by preserving local employment and maintaining healthcare service delivery within the community. It upholds social well-being by ensuring uninterrupted patient care and community trust. While environmental initiatives are limited during this notice period, the arrangement avoids disruption that could increase resource use and supports NHS sustainability goals.
The procurement is approved by the Deputy Chief Strategy and Delivery Officer.
There are no identified conflicts of interest.
This is a Provider Selection Regime (PSR) award notice. The awarding of this contract is subject to the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 and the Procurement Act Regulations 2023 do not apply to this award.

Full details of the required Services are set out in the service specifications.
The Council is conducting this procurement within the requirements of the Light Touch Regime of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (SI2015/102). The process has a reduced tender period of 21 days (instead of the standard 28 days); and shall run as a single stage open tender.
The Council reserves the right to not observe a standstill period.

Following the completion of a 10-day standstill period, the Commissioners will award the Contract.
This procurement is subject to confirmation of DfE Government Funding. If funding is reduced, suspended, reclaimed or withdrawn by Government, ESCC may choose to withdraw certain lots and/or reduce or modify the size of lots.

There are three (3) corrections to the original tender notice (Ref: 2025/S 000-005847) (The link is https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/005847-2025)
1. Under Lot 13 (section II.2.4): the word "Butchery" should have read "Animal Care" in line with the specification issued with the tender.
2. Under Lot 14 (section II.2.4.): the word "Animal Care" should have read "Butchery" in line with the specification issued with the tender.
3. This contract is funded annually by the Department of Education with the expectation that Milestones 1 and 2 are completed by 31st March 2026. Providers must achieve Milestone 3, however, within six months after the training has finished as detailed in the specification issued with the tender. The maximum Contract Year 1 end date is therefore 30 September 2026. This will also apply to Contract Year 2 and Contract Year 3, subject to confirmation of funding. Therefore, under section II.2.7 the date "31 March 2028" should have read "30 September 2028".
Please note: There has been a delay in publishing this award notice. This was due to an ongoing Find a Tender technical issue which has now been fixed. The Contracts Finder award notice was however published on 30 June 2025. (The link is https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/73074e77-dc7c-4101-9845-d412d50fd852)
