A briefing note for suppliers: Changes to procurement in Defra

This Prior Information Notice (PIN) relates to Corporate Solutions – Print and postal services. The intention is to share some updates regarding the application of the new Procurement Act in this area. Other such notices may be published by other category teams within Defra, and if your business operates across multiple categories you should review all relevant notices for updates.

The Procurement Act 2023 is new legislation that will change the way the public sector buys goods and services. It aims to:
•	create a simpler and more flexible commercial system
•	open up public procurement to new entrants
•	take tougher action on underperforming suppliers
•	embed transparency throughout the commercial lifecycle

The changes are expected to start on 24 February 2025.

The existing legislation will apply until 24 February 2025. After 24 February 2025, it will only apply to procurements and contracts that started before this date, i.e. if the Invitation to Tender (ITT) was published, a voluntary transparency notice was published, or a pricing request was issued.

The new features for suppliers include:
•	a central digital platform
•	a simplified bidding process
•	more flexible commercial frameworks
•	a new duty on contracting authorities to consider barriers facing SMEs and VCSEs
•	a stronger exclusions framework

What will stay the same

If you are an existing or potential supplier to Defra and have live contracts, are a member of an existing framework, or are planning to bid for a procurement that has or will start prior to the new regime commencing, that arrangement will continue to be subject to the existing Public Contracting Regulations until the contract ends. The same principle applies to any contracts that are subject to any other associated procurement regulations, such as The Utilities Contracts Regulations.

What you need to do

If you are a supplier, you should:
•	read the government guidance: https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/transforming-public-procurement
•	sign up for regular TPP updates: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdMgwpZ1kwubGUpKMLwu0ZpHS8zdWmXKgaHUJKRl-SwqQT95w/viewform
•	read the government TPP Knowledge Drops: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/the-official-transforming-public-procurement-knowledge-drops

We recommend that you familiarise yourself with the new Central Digital Platform using these guidance videos:
•	An overview of the central digital platform, an enhanced Find a Tender service: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TSfxoZoV3yI
•	How to register an organisation and the first administrator in 3 easy steps https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lnjCa4swtjA
•	Detailed walkthrough: How an administrator completes and updates supplier info https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i4ZdbMGRqeQ
•	The central digital platform, an enhanced Find a Tender service: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TSfxoZoV3yI

If you have a question about the new procurement act, contact the Transforming Public Procurement helpdesk at: procurement.reform@cabinetoffice.gov.uk.

Further information

It is anticipated that there will be little change in this category due to the continued use of existing framework agreements.

There are generally two types of agency required by the College. The first is for vacancy cover when either we are unable to recruit to the post or when awaiting a new starter to begin when the previous post holder has left. The second is sickness cover where classes are unable to be merged and would be cancelled without the cover.
There is then the occasional need and option for a ‘temp to perm’ option with recruited staff and we will be looking to agree a sliding scale of rates with successful agencies.
Finally, we have a lot of part time roles and need to understand the pricing structure if we offer a part time post on varying FTE’s, so advice and knowledge from an agency is needed.
We intend to operate a ‘framework’ of suppliers, with a single ‘Tier 1’ agency having the first refusal at filling posts, and up to 3 agencies at ‘Tier 2’ who would be offered roles which the Tier 1 agency cannot fill.  This framework structure would be managed by the College HR team.

The City of Edinburgh Council is seeking to procure up to 6 contractors under a 2-Lot  Framework Agreement for the delivery and installation of multi - trade fabric and energy improvement works in mixed tenure and 100% council owned housing stock across the city for a period of up to 4 years.
Some of the multi- trade works include but are not limited to the delivery of area based programmed works, housing repairs, maintenance as well as ad-hoc multi-trade works typically covering energy efficiency improvements, whole house retrofit, refurbishment and improvement works.

title: Lot 1.3 - Residential Construction - 100+ Homes

description:
The City of Edinburgh Council (CEC) wishes to appoint contractors to a Framework Agreement to deliver elements of the Council’s Housebuilding Programme.
The Council and RSL partners have an ambition to construct approximately 25,000   new affordable homes. There are also opportunities for other organisations to utilise the Framework Agreement. In order to realise these goals, the Council requires an efficient route to market for the design and construction of affordable, new build housing across the city.
Typically, the Council’s delivery model for new build housing is via the following methods;
(a) On land currently owned by the Council or acquired for this purpose
(b) By purchasing parts of developments being built privately.
(c) On Council owned land where, due to complexity, it enters into development partnerships (generally for mixed tenure and mixed-use developments)
The New Build Housing Framework Agreement that this Contract Notice relates to will primarily, but not exclusively, manage projects delivered via option (a) as above. However, successful organisations should be amenable and able to facilitate the procuring of options (b) and (c) where required.
There is a strong desire to innovate in the design and construction of the new homes and to deliver sustainable communities through place-making. All homes will be constructed, as a minimum, to net zero carbon and the Council is seeking to innovate beyond this standard where real benefit can be provided for tenants.
Through the construction of new housing, the Council is seeking to support the Council’s Business Plan and Core Principles as well as promote and encourage the following outcomes;
- Compliance with the Council’s Design Guide (a summarised version is attached as Annex 5. This document is an example and a summary of the full design guide, which is subject to review and update when required)
- Quality Management and Assurance
- Accelerating delivery and promoting innovation throughout design and construction
- Cost Compliance/Achieving Best Value
- Experience of working with different Forms of Contract and Procurement Approaches
- Collaboration with different stakeholders and partners
- Working with SME’s and Local Supply Chains including compliance with prompt payment terms
- Operating in a sustainable manner and achieving sustainable outcomes
- The delivery of community benefits aligned to the needs of the local area and Council tenants
- Compliance with Fair Working Practices/Initiatives
- Impact positively on the Housing Emergency, which was declared in 2023.
With the renewal of this Framework Agreement, the Council is looking to establish a group of housebuilding contractors committed to delivering the Council’s vision for the creation of high quality, vibrant and sustainable places where people want to live.
This Framework Agreement is open to all organisations named in this notice, however, it is not necessary for tenderers to necessarily be able to provide works in all regions, it is only necessary to be able to provide works to the greater Lothian region.
Lot 1.3 will comprise of all sites over 100 homes.
This Lot shall cover both Build Only (where the contractor fulfils a design provided by the Council) and Design and Build (where the contractor has full design responsibility following the Council’s supplied brief) requirements. It is anticipated that the majority of projects utilising the Framework Agreement will focus on building affordable homes. However, mixed tenure may also be utilised in certain circumstances as well as other residential schemes, including but not limited to, care homes, nurseries, supported living accommodation and temporary accommodation.
Design team novation will need to be accepted and managed appropriately by successful organisations where applicable.

On 2.4.2014 Government introduced its Government Security Classifications (GSC) scheme which replaced Government Protective Marking Scheme (GPMS). A key aspect is the reduction in the number of security classifications used. All bidders were required to make themselves aware of the changes as it may impact this requirement. This link provides information on the GSC at: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/government-security-classifications
Cyber Essentials is a mandatory requirement for Central Government contracts which involve handling personal information or provide certain ICT products/services. Government is taking steps to reduce the levels of cyber security risk in its supply chain through the Cyber Essentials scheme. The scheme defines a set of controls which, when implemented, will provide organisations with basic protection from the most prevalent forms of threat coming from the internet. To participate in this procurement, bidders were required to demonstrate they comply with the technical requirements prescribed by Cyber Essentials, for services under and in connection with this procurement.
Some purchases under this framework Agreement may have requirements that can be met under this
Framework Agreement but the purchase of which may be exempt from the Procurement Regulations (as
defined in Attachment 1 – About the framework within the invitation to tender documentation). In such
cases, Call-offs from this Framework will be unregulated purchases for the purposes of the Procurement
Regulations, and the buyers may, at their discretion, modify the terms of the Framework and any Call-off
Contracts to reflect that buyer’s specific needs.
