This notice is an intention to award a contract based on a framework agreement with a competition.
Under the National Collaborative Framework for Adult Mental Health, Learning Disabilities, and CAMHS Hospital Services, a placement is proposed between Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Local Health Board and Elysium Healthcare No.2 Limited. This proposed placement is initiated under Lot 7 (Low Secure - AMH Male) of the Framework Agreement as a potential call-off contract.
The proposed call off requirement was considered with the basic selection and key criterion as detailed below. Framework providers were evaluated by Commissioners, responsible for a patient placement, under the CAARE criteria to determine (i) under which Framework Lot the Patient’s care requirement falls and (ii) the number of observations hours required to meet the patients' needs by Enhanced Packages of Care / Additional Services.
This was assessed under the following key criterion as stated in PSR Wales Regulations 2025 and aligned within the Framework;
1. Quality - Assurance rating, in the order of the Hospital / Unit with the highest Quality Assurance Rating first within the applicable Framework lot.
2. Value - Framework Ranking by price – in the order of lowest composite price Hospital / Unit within the applicable framework lot.
3. Collaboration and service sustainability - Exact clinical, geographical and social needs of the Patient, including patient outcomes.
4. Improving access and reducing health inequalities - Availability of beds in Hospital / Units within the required Framework Lot and within pre-agreed radius significant to a patient.
5. Social Responsibility - review of a providers community benefits proposal.
The length of the placement is based on patient need and therefore, is undetermined at present.
The supplier is a current provider on the framework and this notice refers to a new placement.
The awarding of this contract is subject to the Health Services (Provider Selection Regime) (Wales) Regulations 2025. This contract has not yet formally been awarded; this notice serves as an intention to award under the PSR Wales.

description:
North East London Integrated Care Board (NEL ICB) are seeking to commission Service Providers within NEL to provide access to palliative end-of-life care (PEoLC) medicines to patients in the community in North East London.
The main service outcome will be to facilitate easy and timely access to PEoLC medicines, enabling patients to achieve good symptom control.
It is expected that the service provider will:
• Maintain a specific stock of PEoLC medicines to ensure timely supply for patients.
• Support access to PEoLC medicines both in and out of hours.
• Provide information and advice relating to the use of EoLC medicines to family members/ carers/ healthcare professionals.
• Provide flexible options for the collection or delivery of PEoLC medicines for out of hours service provision.
NEL ICB is seeking providers who will provide this service within their usual working hours.
It is also expected that the provider will be able to support out-of-hours (OOH) service provisions; defined as hours outside their normal operating times.
The provision for OOHs service would either be by participating in a rota system co-ordinated by NEL ICB across NEL or this will be delivered through a single provider. The minimum requirement (weeks per year as part of the rota) to be determined depending on the responses received from the expression of interest.
To assist the Commissioners with testing its assumptions and proposed service requirements, a market engagement feedback questionnaire has been developed to obtain understanding of the market's feedback and interest on the following:
Outline of service requirements and KPI's
• Indication on provider to participate in OOHs service provision
• timescales for procurement and mobilisation of the new contract
• proposed contract duration and financial model

description: A Design Build Finance Operate (DBFO) contract covers half of the A50 to the Toyota roundabout from the east and expires on 30th June 2026. National Highways therefore must appoint an alternative maintenance contractor and it considers that the scope of these works is already included within this existing Maintenance and Response Contract which is adjacent geographically. Therefore these roads will be incorporated into this existing Maintenance and Response (M&R) Contract for Area 7 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 7 M&R Contract will be shortened and will have a new end date of 1st July 2029 instead of 30th June 2031. The new estimated total Contract value will be £ 557,390,000.

title: Area 7 Maintenance & Response Contract

description:
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 Leicestershire, Northamptonshire, Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire, Lincolnshire, part of Warwickshire, Rutland and part of Oxfordshire (Area 7 East Midlands Region) (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 a new section of the A50 into the Contract (covering half of the A50, Eastbound from the Toyota roundabout) which is 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 32%. It will also shorten the Contract which will have a new end date of 1st July 2029 instead of 30th June 2031 in order to align with the procurement process for the next Maintenance & Response Contracts.

description: Highway maintenance work

mainProcurementCategory: works

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.

NRW is responsible for the management of the Welsh Government Woodland Estate (WGWE) and land in our care including National Nature Reserves.
This is an all-Wales multi-supplier NRW Framework Agreement for the provision of Helicopter Support Services to help enable the Welsh Fire and Rescue Service (FRS) manage fires on our land, or neighbouring land where conditions pose a threat to our land, that have become well established and/or are out of control.
Services provided under this Framework Agreement may be required anywhere in Wales or land manged by NRW in England. Historically, however, the majority of firefighting work has been located in south Wales.
The number and extent of fires each year will determine the support NRW and FRS will require. Due to this unpredictability, NRW does not guarantee any work or level of expenditure under this Framework Agreement.
The proposed duration of the Framework Agreement is 24 months with the option of extending for a further 2 x 12 months thereafter subject to satisfactory performance and annual price review

description:
In England, the prevalence of psychotic disorders (including schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, and affective psychosis) is estimated to be around 0.5% of people aged 16 and older. A 2014 survey found that 0.7% of survey respondents had experienced psychotic disorder in the past year. NHS England also notes that psychosis affects up to 3% of the population and is associated with significant social impairment and reduced life expectancy.
The 2014 Adult Psychiatric Morbidity Survey (APMS) found that around 0.5% of people aged 16 years or older in England had received a diagnosis of a psychotic disorder (schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, or affective psychosis) in the preceding year. The median lifetime risk for schizophrenia is 7.2 per 1000 people. The male-to-female risk ratio is 1.4:1.
The age of onset peaks around age 20-25 years for males and 25-30 years for females. A smaller second peak of onset occurs in women after the age of 45-50 years.
Patients with schizophrenia have a higher mortality and shorter life expectancy than the general population due to physical illness (including cardiovascular diseases and cancers), accidents, and suicide.
The population this contract is due to serve is a defined group of patients that previously had antipsychotic medication administered through primary care. Due to the primary care provider being unable to continue prescribing Antipsychotic medication we require a psychiatry led provider to manage the on-going prescribing and drug safety monitoring of this identified group of patients who at the point of transfer are not open to secondary MH services.
The primary aim of this service is to provide ongoing prescribing function for the antipsychotic medication and drug safety monitoring.  The initial requirement is for up to 120 patients across NHS Devon from early October 2025. However, the number of patients may increase throughout the lifetime of the contract and may alter by point of contract award.
The provider will:
•	Ensure ongoing drug safety monitoring and prescribing including  appropriate blood tests* and ECGs and informed by NICE guidelines
•	Ensure that any concerns related to the person's mental health are appropriately escalated to the secondary mental health provider.
•	Issue prescription that will be dispended by the patient's local pharmacy.
It is anticipated that after an initial review, 1-2 months prescription lengths would be required, with a 12 month annual review.  However, the provider must use clinical judgement, informed by NICE guidance, to determine the physical health monitoring needs of the individual and safe length of prescription.
The ICB envisages care being delivered as close to home as possible, however this could include the service being delivered remotely, with the preferred remote method of contact being agreed with the patient.  Where the service is delivered remotely it is anticipated that the primary method will be via Teams (or an equivalent system for safe virtual delivery) and the provider will take reasonable steps to support the patient in the utilisation of IT where advice and guidance may be required e.g. easy to read, jargon free instructions. Should digital poverty or IT connectivity prevent use of virtual delivery, the provider needs to have mitigations available.
A range of strategies to proactively engage with patients especially in relation to non-attendance will be required.
*blood tests include
•	Full Blood Count, Blood Lipids, Plasma Glucose or HbA1c, Liver Functions Tests, Creatinine Kinase, Prolactin

These records are currently located in the basement of its former headquarters at Shirehall and must be removed during October 2025, date to be confirmed.
This contract is to secure the provision of a storage contract for these records with retrieval and return service and the potential to manage destructions in line with the Shropshire Council file plan and retention policy.  Scanning of records for transfer to SharePoint, may be required.
In addition, the Records Management Service requires access to a management system allowing for the accurate recording of records movement (detailed below).
This storage contract must ensure that Shropshire Council is compliant with records legislation (detailed below)
This storage contact must ensure that the records are held in secure, environmentally stable conditions (detailed below).
This contract is for an initial period of 5 years.
Background
The Shropshire Council Records Management Service manages around 50,000 boxes of council records in Shirehall and an out-store in Telford.
•Around 50,000 Shropshire Council records are managed by the service
•Over 3,000 requests for access are achieved each year
•7 secure stores in Shirehall managing around 35,000 records
•Telford off-site store holds around 14,000 records scheduled for destruction before 2030.
The Shropshire Council Records Management Service Information and Records Management Standards (2021) sets out a framework for the creation, management, preservation, retention, destruction and control of information and records, which supports the activities and business function of Shropshire Council to ensure that information and records sources are retained only for as long as is necessary for legal compliance and administrative need.
The Records Management Service ensures that records and information are secure and vital information is protected and compliant with records legislation. Semi-current and closed paper business records are stored in appropriate conditions with the main storage facility at the Shirehall compliant with BS4971:2017 and BS EN 16893:2017 standards.
Corporate and public records lifecycle management
•Shropshire Council Records Management Service (RMS) is a corporate service supporting effective management of all departmental records in the council
•Through its work it enables Shropshire Council to comply with information legislation for a transparent and accountable authority
•Service demand is growing in line with the increasing pressure on social care. Since 2016 over 3,500 social care files have been deposited with statutory retention dates up to 75 years and advisory retention dates of up to 150 years
•In addition to corporate records, RMS manages records for external bodies including HM Coroner and HM Magistrates. These records are subject to the Public Records Act (1958): when they are 15 years old, the files transfer to Shropshire Archives for permanent preservation
Access to information
•The Records Management Service delivers around 3,000 requests for access per annum from Shropshire Council staff
•The Records Management Service holds uniquely sensitive records and has specific requirements for confidentiality and compliance.

•A dedicated, specialist team of information professionals ensuring access to our records supporting transparency and accountability
Records management database
Shropshire Council Records Management Service currently uses the CALM RM database to manage its records.  This existing finding aid and management tool should be integrated to work with the storage contractor’s system to deliver a single, authoritative dataset for every Shropshire Council record.  The storage contractor’s database will replicate the functionality of CALM RM which:

Written representations should be sent to procurementpeople-mailbox@devon.gov.uk
Award decisions have been recommended by Devon County Council's Children's Strategic Commissioning team, with key decision makers being:
Senior Commissioning Manager of Children's Services (DCC), Assistant Commissioner of Children and Young People and Non-Custodial Services (NHS England), and Senior Commissioning Manager of Children and Young People and Non-Custodial Services (NHS England).
No conflicts of interest were declared.
The rationale for the relative importance of the key criteria, and the rationale for choosing the provider with reference to the key criteria is explained below:
Quality and Innovation, 35% - The Provider has worked with the young people and staff at Atkinson since 2019 and in this time they have delivered a high quality service. During this time they have offered development opportunities around Just Right State to enable staff to better understand themselves to support how they work with young people to avoid escalation of situations and support their own self-regulation. They have also pioneered the development of a regulatory garden within the grounds of the home to enable young people and staff to use this space in order to manage their own state of being to enable them to better engage with life and learning at the home.
Value, Pass/Fail - The provider accepted the available fixed budget.
Integration, Collaboration and Service Sustainability, 25% - The provider works with staff and young people in the home which demonstrates a strong collaborative and integrated approach. It is well understood within the health & wellbeing team that the provider supports staff as well as young people to have the tools to self-regulate which demonstrates a strong commitment to integration and collaboration. The impact of this is to be able to better support the young people in the home and help the work to be sustainable for the professionals working in this home. In 2024/25 they have also been joint working with the homes clinical psychology students and undertake supervision with the residential support workers.
Improving Access, Reducing Health Inequalities, and Facilitating Choice, 30% - This provider improves access to health services by supporting professionals to work with young people differently, in a way that is sensitive to their sensory needs. This provider also supports young people to better understand their needs so that they can overcome barriers to getting the help that they need. They have supported young people to collaborate in their own care planning and in some cases have empowered young people to be a lead in this process.
Social Value, 10% - All of the above supports young people to interact more positively with the world around them and to identify positive choices in their lives. This will have a significant impact on their ability to interact with health services leading to better health for them and their communities. As stated by Public Health England, "There is clear evidence that good work improves health and wellbeing across people's lives and protects against social exclusion. Conversely, unemployment is bad for health and wellbeing, as it is associated with an increased risk of mortality and morbidity." Therefore by improving access to health services and understanding one's own needs for wellbeing, these young people are more likely to be able to be in good health, for longer, and be more productive and more likely to be employed.
