title: DHSC: National Breastfeeding Helpline

description: Call centre

procurementMethodRationale:
DHSC have made a direct award to the Breastfeeding Network (BfN) for a 12-month period to provide a continuity of service for the 24-hour National Breastfeeding Helpline (NBH).

This direct award has been made in accordance with Regulation 32(2)(b)(ii) competition is absent for technical reasons.

In 2024/25, the NBH was expanded to pilot a night service so that services are available to members of the public 24 hours a day, every day of the year. The current NBH service includes a 24-hour telephone helpline and voicemail service, social media, webchat and links to the BfN's drugs in breastmilk advice service.

DHSC have deemed that BfN are currently the only supplier who are positioned to run the 24-hour service without helpline users facing a gap or reduction in service provision, based upon BfN's capacity to manage service demand and them additionally having the means to increase capacity of the night service in early 2025/26. BfN also previously commissioned an independent evaluation for the 2024/25 pilot and are uniquely positioned to put arrangements in place for an independent evaluation of the full night service pilot which is required by DHSC. For these reasons, BfN are currently the only provider who could deliver the full scope of service requirements at the required scale.

DHSC are exploring longer term solutions in respect to the ongoing provision of the NBH, and intend to conduct an open procedure in late Q2 or early Q3 of 2025/26 to source a replacement contract. To support this, DHSC intend to conduct market engagement at the end of Q1 or beginning of Q2 2025/26. A UK2 preliminary market engagement notice will be published to advertise any upcoming engagement.

.
a)The candidate has submitted a complete and compliant SPD response; and
.
b)Whether any of the Lead Candidates, Consortium Members and /or Reliance Entities(if any) fall within any of the mandatory grounds for exclusion or, in the case of the discretionary exclusion grounds, are considered ineligible at the discretion of the Council, in accordance with Part III of the SPD and Regulation 58 of the Public Contracts(Scotland)Regulations 2015.
-
Stage Two: “Selection Criteria–Minimum Requirements”, the Council will determine a ranking (through the scoring of SPD Responses) but only for those bids who successfully pass Stage One “Exclusion Grounds” referred to above and have passed section 3B and 3D of this stage.
-

-
Based on the final score ranking, the Council intends to limit the number of otherwise qualified Candidates to be selected to receive an ITT to the top five(5) ranked Candidates, in so far as there are a sufficient number of acceptable and compliant RTP’s submitted.
-

description: The Torpedoes Repair and Maintenance Contract (TRAM) provides repair and maintenance services for the full torpedo arsenal of the Royal Navy. This contract was initially let on a 7 year basis in 2019. The Authority now intends to extend the provisions of this existing contract with no material change in scope for a further 3 years plus 2 x 1 option year periods.

title: c. £297m

description:
Torpedo Maritime Strike (TMS) Delivery Team, as part of the UK Ministry of Defence, intends to extend a current contract, on a single source basis, with  BAE Systems Surface Ships Ltd for up to 5 years duration from no later than July 2026 for the In Service Support of the Spearfish Heavyweight and Sting Ray Lightweight torpedoes.
The contract extension will be a CAT A requirement based on planned scope and duration. The current contract is a Category B but treated as a Category A operationally.
This notice is not a request for expressions of interest, so please do not apply to be invited to tender. This notice advises that the Authority has decided to negotiate a contract extension with the named supplier on a single source basis, and is published for reasons of transparency. If you are interested in becoming a sub-contractor to this requirement you should apply directly to the supplier named in this notice.

description: Repair and maintenance services of weapons and weapon systems

procurementMethod: limited

procurementMethodDetails: Negotiated without publication of a contract notice

procurementMethodRationale:
The Torpedo Maritime Strike (TMS) Delivery Team, part of the UK Ministry of Defence, is seeking to place a contract, by way of a contract amendment, with BAE Systems Surface Ships Ltd for the provision of in-service support to the Spearfish and Sting Ray torpedoes.
In accordance with regulation 4 of The Defence and Security Public Contracts (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019 (SI 2019/697) this procurement falls to be regulated under the provisions of the Defence and Security Public Contracts Regulations 2011, as amended (in particular by SI 2019/697 and SI 2020/1450).  Prior publication of a contract notice in the Official Journal of the European Union is no longer appropriate.
It is considered that award of the contract using the negotiated procedure without prior publication of a contract notice in the UK e-notification service (as required by relevant legislation) is lawful in accordance with Regulation 16(1)(a)(ii) of the Defence and Security Public Contracts Regulations 2011). This is due to technical reasons whereby BAE Systems is the only economic operator in the  market with the necessary know-how, capacity and infrastructure that is able to provide the required level of expertise and support to meet the entire requirement without excessive or unacceptable risk.
BAE Systems are the Design Authority for both the Spearfish and Sting Ray torpedoes. Both types of torpedo will be required to be supported during the contract.
BAE, as the Design Authority, are therefore uniquely placed to undertake the requirement to support these torpedoes and incorporate the modifications having designed, certificated and supported the systems throughout their service life. The technical expertise within BAE Systems is key to the continued safety certification and maintenance to ensure a continued torpedo capability. BAE are the only organisation suitably qualified and experienced to provide the required level of support at an acceptable level of risk. Failure to implement suitable support would jeopardise the functionality of the systems and thus the safety of deployed personnel.

There is an intention to run a procurement in the future for 'The Supply of Gloves Close Combat (Hot & Temperate)'. (Supply of close combat gloves to be used in hot and temperate environments.)
The agreement has an estimated value between; ex. VAT. £4488330.328 - £11220825.82 and inc. VAT £5385996.3936 - £13464990.984.

description:
As part of the South Central Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust (SCAS) remit to operate the 999 call service, it was identified that ambulances were being sent to patients
that didn't need them, which otherwise could have been downgraded over the phone, reducing the need to dispatch an ambulance unnecessarily, and reducing the pressure and
demand on the use of ambulances.
A subcontract was set up between SCAS and their subcontractor to provide a GP Clinical Assessment Service to support this.
The existing contract is due to expire on 31st March 2025.
The contract has shown a huge benefit to SCAS - downgrade rates of 80%.
As a result of the success of the contract, an additional one year contract is required from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2026, with an option to extend for a further additional year. to 31st March 2027.
If the contract expires with no replacement, SCAS and the public would experience a huge drop in service level, and an unnecessary dispatching of ambulances, putting further pressure on ambulance resources.

UK Industrial Fusion Solutions (UKIFS) seeks to appoint a highly capable and experienced supplier to deliver a strategic global supply chain analysis that is essential to the successful commercial delivery of the STEP Prototype Fusion Plant.
This contract (Lot 2 of the procurement) will support UKIFS in identifying, evaluating, and prioritising opportunities across the global supply base for STEP’s technology needs. The outcome must be a fully informed, practical, and prioritised view of where and how the STEP programme can extract value and benefit from existing supply chains, and where and how it should stimulate capability development, attract inward investment or foster new industrial partnerships to enable long-term delivery success.
Critically, this is not a desktop research exercise. UKIFS expects the successful supplier to bring deep expertise, value-added insight, and international reach, delivering a level of analysis, judgement and synthesis that would not be achievable through internal capability alone. Key to the success of this contract is the ability to combine supply chain mapping with a strategic understanding of commercial value, delivery risk, policy context, and long-term technical and supply chain capability development.
