performanceTerms: As stated in the tender documents.

description: Sports facilities operation services

procurementMethod: limited

description: As detailed in the tender documents.

procurementMethodDetails: Negotiated without publication of a contract notice

procurementMethodRationale:
This voluntary ex ante transparency notice (VEAT Notice) gives notice that the Council is entering into a deed of variation (Variation) to make certain changes summarised in this VEAT Notice. A procurement procedure is not necessary on the basis that the award of the Deed of Variation of the Contract is permitted pursuant to Regulation 72 of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015.
The Contract is for the operation and management of the Council’s three leisure centres to ensure the Council can provide quality and affordable leisure services for the residents within the borough, maintain the facilities and provide a financial return to the borough to invest in core services.
The Contract will be varied to adopt an agency model for the future operation and management of the three sports and leisure facilities. Under the current Contract, SLM acts as Principal in the supply of leisure facilities to the public. Under the new agency model in the Variation, SLM would make supplies to the public as an Agent of the Council so that it is the Council providing leisure services to the public through its Agent.
This modification is being made in accordance with regulation 72(1)(e) of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 on the basis that it is not substantial within the meaning of regulation 72(8).  The proposed modification does not constitute a substantial modification and is permitted by regulation 72 of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 because:
(a) the modification does not render the Contract materially different in character.  The Variation concerns the same type, scope and nature of services which will be delivered at the same Council facilities to the Council’s residents. The Contract was already for the operation of the Council’s leisure facilities and the Variation makes contractual changes to establish an agency model so that SLM provides the Council’s statutory leisure services to the public on the Council's behalf and other ancillary modifications.  This generates VAT savings.
(b) the modification does not introduce conditions which would have (i) allowed for the admission of other candidates, (ii) allowed for the acceptance of another tender, or (iii) attracted additional participants in the procurement procedure.  Delivering the Council’s statutory leisure services as agent rather than outsourced contractor will not affect the physical operation of the leisure centres.  The change to an agency model for VAT purposes does not change the service requirement or the way in which those services are provided, and is unlikely to have changed the outcome of the procurement.
(c) The modification does not change the economic balance in favour of the contractor in a manner which was not provided for in the initial contract. The new agency model and associated VAT benefits does not impact on SLM’s operating costs and management fee under the Contract, which remains reflective of market costs. The agency model will provide a greater return than previously anticipated.
(d) the modification does not extend the scope of the contract.

maximum 5-year contract period. The contract shall be delivered by Balfour Beatty Living Places Limited (BBLP) through an intercompany agreement or subcontracted arrangement between BBCE and BBLP.

description: Highways engineering services

procurementMethodRationale:
The Council has entered into a contract with Balfour Beatty Civil Engineering Limited (BBCE), acting as agent of Balfour Beatty Group Limited under the SCAPE Civil Engineering Framework ("the Framework") to deliver the Southampton Highways Partnership (SHP) for a maximum period of 5 years.
The estimated values referred to in this notice are based on the maximum 5-year contract period. It is intended that the services shall be delivered by Balfour Beatty Living Places Limited (BBLP) through an intercompany agreement or subcontracted arrangement between BBCE and BBLP. The Council is named as a Contracting Authority eligible to use the Framework and the Framework covers the main highways services required by the Council.
Accordingly, the Council has considered that public procurement law permits the award of a contract without prior publication of a contract notice to be permissible on the grounds of Regulation 99(3) of the Public Contract Regulations 2015.
In the context of the severe financial constraints the Council is experiencing, it is likely that the Council's spend on highways services during the current to medium term will be significantly less than in previous years, which may affect the ability to secure a
competitive commercial arrangement for the longer term. A shorter-term contract will allow time for the Council to stabilise financially and present to the market a more commercially compelling offer.
The Council's current financial situation has also affected the level of resource which can be allocated to the highways project which increases risk to delivering a procurement process within the required timescales and quality of the resulting contract. This has obvious disadvantages and risks for the Council and potential bidders and has contributed to the identification of the use of the Framework and reduced contract term as the appropriate option. It is intended that the market engagement for the subsequent highways contract shall commence in 2027 with a procurement process starting in 2028.

description:
Please note this is a Contract Award Notice to announce the conclusion of the procurement it is not a new opportunity.
SCOPE OF SERVICES
The primary aim of this project is to enhance the visitor experience and offer the Museum a series of renewed gallery and collection storage spaces that allow the extraordinary permanent collections to be cared for, researched and displayed for modern audiences. Importantly the Museum is also looking to resolve the current problems it is facing of an overcomplex and constricted site with a dilapidating building stock that is poorly suited to its requirements. The complexity of the site and the scope of work requires the appointed design team to include many different skills, possibly from different organisations. There are three key strands to the work:
BUILDING DESIGN
The new Western Range will include gallery spaces, visitor welfare and circulation facilities, collection stores and research spaces. Each element will need to be sensitively designed within an architecture that respects the existing, while introducing powerful new interventions. The winning team will need to satisfy a range of stakeholders and secure listed building consents, expressed functionality, required adjacencies, ambitious sustainability criteria, and day-to-day requirements for maintenance and maintainability.
VISITOR EXPERIENCE
The interior layout and design of the visitor experience and amenities will play an important role in the success of this project, including arrival, circulation and way-finding routes. The winning team will understand how to create inviting vistas across the site, making best use of natural light, the juxtaposition of internal volumes and passive ventilation to enhance visitors’ enjoyment of the new museum experience. Accessibility and comfort for all is a given and consideration of seating and rest areas will need to be incorporated at the earliest stage of the design.
GALLERY EXHIBITION DESIGN
Given the long-term phasing of this project, the Museum is proposing three gallery exhibition packages for the permanent galleries in the new Western Range: only the first of these is an integral part of this competition brief. The gallery displays that will be included within this first package are dependent on the overall approach to phasing of the project and will therefore be determined, with the successful team, following the completion of RIBA Stage 2 design. Please note that the new galleries may well house different collections, as the Museum’s site-wide redisplay strategy is developed. This means that the winning team will need to include gallery exhibition designers with evidenced understanding of museology who can work alongside the Museum’s own curatorial and content teams and deliver gallery spaces that astound the world within the first phase of work. As well as delivering the designs for the first phase of galleries, the winning team must be able to create a building design that allows future design teams to
insert new galleries into latter phases of the project, allowing for varied creative voices to be involved in the long-term design of the project, ensuring an end-design that is vibrant, integrated and bespoke for each gallery.
The estimated total value of the contract stated in this Contract Notice is derived from an order of magnitude assessment of the construction value of the Western Range programme based on project work to date and must be treated as indicative only. The duration dates for the overall programme are also indicative only and are subject to change

title: British Museum Western Range Competition to find an Architect-Led Design Team

description:
Please note this is a Contract Award Notice to announce the conclusion of the procurement it is not a new opportunity.
The British Museum is delighted to launch this international competition to choose a visionary, architect-led design team to work with the Museum to develop an extraordinary design for a significant part of its Bloomsbury site: The Western Range.
This is an important commission to re-envisage and transform key parts of the main, iconic site in Bloomsbury. This will be the Museum’s biggest building project since the 1820s, when work commenced on the original quadrangle.
The ambition is significant: to restore the Western Range and, in so doing, reimagine a third of the existing gallery area, deliver improved collections storage and create new amenities to enhance the visitor experience, making the collection as accessible as possible to all the Museum’s audiences.

description: It is anticipated that the 6 Economic Operators that satisfy: the completeness and compliance checks; the criteria for the rejection of Economic Operators; the information as to economic and financial standing; and who achieve the highest scores in the technical or professional ability evaluation process will be short-listed and invited to submit tenders.   Where there is a tie for 6th place, then all Economic Operators in 6th place will be shortlisted and invited to submit tenders. For the purposes of this exercise a tie for 6th place is deemed to occur where two or more Economic Operators have identical scores or a score within 1 mark (out of a score of 100) of the 6th place score. In the event that any short-listed Economic Operator(s) withdraw(s) from the Procurement or subsequently become(s) ineligible to continue to participate in the Procurement at any stage following notification of short-listing and prior to issue of the Invitation to Tender, the University will remove the withdrawn/ineligible Economic Operator(s) from the short-list and will add to the short-list the next ranked eligible Economic Operator(s) (if any) to replace the Economic Operator(s) removed. The University will inform the relevant Economic Operator(s) accordingly. Where there is a tie in relation to the next ranked Economic Operator, (i.e. where two or more Economic Operators have identical scores or a score within 1 mark (out of a score of 100)), all Economic Operators with tied scores will be short-listed and invited to submit tenders. In the event that the Procurement is unavoidably delayed, but not cancelled, the PQQP Submission will be assessed at the time of receipt and the Economic Operators will be notified of the outcome. The short-list of Economic Operators for Invitation to Tender will typically remain valid for a period of up to 12 months from the PQQP Receipt Deadline.   At the University's discretion the period of validity may be extended.   When the Procurement is recommenced, the University may seek confirmation that the short-listed Economic Operators still meet the required minimum standards for the Procurement.
