title: ADHD prescribing and monitoring - CYP

description: There will be an option to extend by a further 12 months from 1st April 2026 - 31st March 2027

description:
Suffolk and North East Essex (SNEE) ICB is establishing a prescribing and monitoring service for ADHD medications for CYP patients in NEE. This service will take on the primary care responsibilities as defined by the shared care agreements for these medications. This service is being set up in response to receiving formal notice from the  North & South Essex LMC that they have advised GP practices in NEE to decline from participating in shared care agreements for ADHD medications for this cohorts of patients. This includes withdrawing from existing shared care agreements.
This service will share care for patients who are under the care of East Suffolk and North Essex NHS Foundation Trust who deliver commissioned pathways by SNEE ICB.
The objectives of the service are to:
• Provide patients with appropriate and safe care outside of the secondary care setting.
• Improve patient access to services.
• Deliver an innovative approach to service provision.
• Demonstrate improved quality and effectiveness of services for patients.
The service shall be available to all patients within NEE who are registered with a GP practice within North East Essex and under the care of ESNEFT (SNEE ICB commissioned Children's ADHD pathway) who have been diagnosed with ADHD and are being prescribed one or more of the medications. Access to the service is by referral from ESNEFT.
The provider will accept new patients who have been diagnosed with ADHD, have completed a minimum of 12 weeks of titration and has been stabilised on treatment by ESNEFT and patients referred into the service by ESNEFT who were previously prescribed and monitored by their NEE GP practice.  The Provider will also be working with GP Practices who choose to continue with the monitoring or prescribing.
This contract will start on the 1st April 2025 for 12 months (1 year).
There will be an option to extend by a further 12 months (1 year) from 1st April 2026 - 31st March 2027
The value of this contract is an estimation based upon all patient data available at the time, therefore there is the potential for variation once the entirety of the circumstances and the number of shared care arrangements are understood with greater detail.
The ICB may wish to introduce additional services during the lifetime of the contract ("Contract modifications"). Such contract modifications will be contemplated where additional requirements are similar and or complementary to the services already included in the Specification, at any given time. Such expansion would be by the addition of services commissioned by the Authority as named in the Contract Notice. To this end, after the award of contract, there is a possibility that the contract may be varied as allowable in accordance with the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023.

procurementMethod: limited

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

procurementMethodRationale:
This contract has been awarded under the urgent circumstances provision of the Provider Selection Regime (PSR). This contract has been awarded under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 do not apply to this award. This award is being made urgently and the reason for the urgency was not foreseen by the ICB for the reasons outlined within this notice. This award is being made in order to prevent risk to patient and public safety, and the ICB is not able to satisfy the requirements of regulations 6 - 13 for the reasons outlined below.
In order to mobilise this interim new service within the timeframe given by the notice of GP practices in North East Essex, it is imperative that the provider has the relationships, digital and clinical processes required with the GP practices and with East Suffolk and North Essex NHS Foundation Trust (ESNEFT).
The following elements indicate the reasons for the direct award to the named provider:
•The critical timeline for implementation of this significant change
•The direct partnership - working arrangements between the practices of NE Essex and GP Primary Choice Ltd; this includes management of a collective LES, commissioned by the ICB with a range of implementation arrangements with practices
•The track record of delivery of high-quality services working with practices and system partners
•The working relationship between ESNEFT and GP Primary Choice Ltd
GP Primary Choice Ltd is a trusted system partner of ESNEFT as well as the practices. The pace required to deliver these new arrangements safely for this interim period demands these practical working relationships.
Insert Award decision-makers: Executive Committee 6th January 2025.
No conflicts of interest, or potential conflicts of interest, were declared by any decision makes.

Southampton City Council (the Authority) has awarded a contract to CLC Contractors Limited via direct award through the Procurement for Housing Fire Safety Works Framework - Lot 7 - Whole House Building Works.
The above framework allows the Authority to complete a call of to the provider on the basis that CLC Contractors Limited are a ranked provider with national coverage and a direct award is permitted on the basis of continuation of service. This route to market has been reviewed and approved by the framework owner. The incumbent provider has a detailed knowledge of our property portfolio and the systems and processes in place to facilitate a smooth transition of services to this new direct award call-off contract. A compliantly awarded contract to our incumbent provider gives us significant added value through agreed contractual terms and benefits from the economies of scale offered via the framework, along with reassurance that the recently awarded framework has tested the market and our incumbent provider continues to be competitive.
The duration of this call of contract is 3 years +1+1 at the sole discretion of the Authority and has a proposed value across the entire potential length of the contract of approximately £15,000,000.
Accordingly, the Authority considers 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 contracts regulations 2015.
The standstill period expired at midnight on 10th March 2025.

title: SDA PDSF Support

title: SDA PDSF Support CAN

description: This contract will deliver the necessary support and technical expertise to the Pan Defence Skills Framework on an urgent business critical timeline.  Without this intervention teh deployment of this tool for the SDA would be set back significantly and not be exploited in the intended way, causing further cost and impact to the training and development of the agency. Due to the reduced time frame, the authority required the utilisation of key SQEP staff that had the internal familiarisation with the SDA/PDSF and the current position to deliver this output. This was awarded through the CCS framework: Management Consultancy Framework 3.

procurementMethodRationale: The individuals contracted to deliver this activity were already working on the requirement for the SDA, and were the only ones placed with the technical expertise and familiarity with the programme to deliver the urgent requirement in a very short time frame. If the need for support for the PDSF goes beyond this date, then this route will be reviewed.

description:
Coventry University aims to acquire and implement a new timetabling solution that prioritises the needs of our students. We seek to invest in a system that extends beyond basic room scheduling, optimising both our campus resources and students' time for maximum efficiency.
Our students choose to come to us to invest in their future and expect a continual return on their investment. A significant number of our undergraduate and postgraduate students balance part-time work alongside their studies, as well as other commitments such as childcare. It is important that we consider the unique circumstances of our learners, including location, commuting distance and work responsibilities.
We need a modern and secure, Software-as-a-Service solution, which integrates with our in-house student record system, learning platform and in-house attendance monitoring solution. The solution needs to be flexible, with the ability to adapt as we continue to develop our offering in the higher education market and respond with agility to changing student expectations.
Our supplier and system will help maximise the value of a timetable, by:
• Ensuring our students have real-time, online access to their personalised timetable.
• Enabling us to push notifications to students following changes to their timetable
• Giving students seamless access to all the information they need to maximise participation in their teaching and learning journey.
• Providing a typical, sample timetable in advance to an applicant who is considering choosing to study at the university, giving them the information they need to understand how their studies could fit around work and other
commitments.
• Giving our students their final timetable as soon as they complete their enrolment, ensuring they can start their studies immediately.
• Providing our international applicants with early sight of their proposed timetable ahead of completing their enrolment (while still travelling to the UK and undertaking Right to Study checks).
• Providing our returning students with a draft timetable well in advance of the next stage of their course, allowing them to amend work and other commitments before they resume their study
This process will be a two-stage process under the Public Regulations 2024 and be run under the Competitive Flexible Process. The procurement process will include the Conditions of Participation stage, which will be utilised for shortlisting suppliers and the Invitation to Tender stage, which include the shortlisted suppliers. All suppliers who are required to complete the Procurement Specific Questionnaire and complete and sign; Appendix 2, Declaration of Compliance for their first stage submission to be evaluated.
The process is designed for fairness and transparency to all the suppliers that wish to work with Coventry University and declare an expression of interest utilising the University's procurement portal below.

We invite you to attend an on-campus Coventry University Presentation and Q&A panel on Wednesday 19th March 2025 between 1pm and 4pm. The pre-market engagement session will take place at Coventry University, the Jaguar Building - room JA118, 113A Gosford Street, Coventry, West Midlands, CV1 5DL.
Maximum participants per company: 2
You will be joined alongside other potential bidder/suppliers to have a pre-tender open discussion and QA panel session between our Infrastructure Services and Procurement
professionals. It will be an opportunity for valued partners like yourselves to ask questions about our curriculum structure, brands and locations, timetabling challenges and implementation plans, including our expectations from a partner moving forwards.
After this session, you will receive an invitation to respond to a Conditions of Participation stage, which will be released on Wednesday 9th April 2025. This process will be a two-stage process under the Public Regulations 2024 and
be run under the Competitive Flexible Process. The procurement process will include the Conditions of Participation stage, which will be utilised for shortlisting suppliers and the Invitation to Tender stage, which include the shortlisted suppliers. The process is designed for fairness and transparency to all the suppliers that wish to work with Coventry University and declare an expression of interest utilising the University’s procurement portal
below.

What if I don’t take part in the process and wait for the tender to be made public?
Attendance at the workshop session is a crucial part of the process, participation is advised for prospective bidders/suppliers. We feel that non-attendance would place your organisation at a significant disadvantage vs. those who were in attendance. It is important to note that this engagement is not scored and will not be used as a reflection on your actual tender submission and scoring overall. However, the workshop is designed to promote transparency early in the process and provide an opportunity to demonstrate how you will collaborate with others as a partner. It also serves as a valuable platform to hear and address questions raised by others, reducing the volume of queries submitted prior to and during the formal tender exercise.
Following the session, all questions and answers discussed will be shared on the University’s procurement portal, In-tend, to ensure clarity and fairness. To summarise, the workshop offers an opportunity to:
• Demonstrate Collaboration: Show how you would work effectively as a partner.
• Gain Clarity: Listen to and discuss questions raised by others, which helps reduce uncertainties and the volume of queries submitted during the tender phase.
• Access Insights: Receive a consolidated document of all questions and answers discussed during the session to guide your tender preparation. The document will be shared on the University’s procurement portal, In-tend.
• Full transparency: Why certain technology must be used due to existing investments, interoperability and compatibility with the key University systems outlined in the attached pre-market engagement document.
