The Welsh Government remains committed to delivering a national approach to digital services, enabling maintained schools in Wales to maximize the transformational benefits of digital and technology in education.
 Our vision is to ‘Embrace innovation to transform digital education in Wales’. By harnessing cutting-edge, bilingual digital technology, we aim to create a personalised, safe, agile, and interconnected ecosystem that equips practitioners and schools to prepare learners to thrive in a rapidly evolving global digital society.
 The Hwb platform is the Welsh Government’s strategic digital channel to support delivering the Curriculum for Wales. It provides education stakeholders with a secure, single point of access to a plethora of bilingual content, resources, and digital tools and services.
 As a national digital service, we support over 1480 maintained schools, with over 450,000 learners, 55,000 practitioners, and a range of education professionals across the schools’ sector in Wales.
 The Hwb web platform will need to be accessed by learners, practitioners, and potentially parents. Therefore, we need a service that is customisable to individual users’ needs and preferences. The web platform will need to integrate with a central Entra ID identity service to support different user groups accessing specific content when logged in, as well as allowing public users to access public-facing content.
 The web platform will need to support standard website functionality, including but not limited to, a content management solution, news, and event management. A key deliverable is to provide a single resource repository supporting the creation and sharing of dynamic and interactive content, resources, assessments/quizzes hosted locally or by accredited partners. The repository will need to support a range of formats from static/interactive resources to immersive VR and AR formats.
 It is essential the web platform can respond to the evolving needs of schools and embrace opportunities from emerging technology. Our wider Hwb cloud service enables users to access online tools and resources anywhere, anytime, from various web-enabled devices. It provides an integrated platform allowing schools to easily access Microsoft 365, Google for Education, and Apple Classroom tools and services. The web platform will need to support interoperability with these services to ensure resources can be utilised easily as part of lesson planning within virtual classrooms. The platform will need to support a seamless gateway for users to access relevant tools and services through Single Sign-On, using a role-based access control model.
 The Welsh Government embraces a cloud-first approach and seeks to procure a software as a service (SaaS) solution. The successful bidder will need to design the web platform to our specific requirements, ensuring it is user-centered, bilingual, and fully accessible per the latest WGAC AA standards.
 The service should embrace secure by design and support simplified code, so content can be published easily and efficiently by our teams. The service will need to be flexible to adapt to the fast-moving and ever-changing technology landscape and provide a gateway to the plethora of services and education technology opportunities delivered by Welsh Government.
 During the most recent academic year, the existing web platform has supported an average of approximately 3.5 million logins each month. Activity can vary significantly throughout the year, so the service will need to deliver dynamic scaling and full resilience.
 Our aim is for this service to future-proof the Hwb platform and ensure it’s recognised by educators as the single gateway to meet all their digital education needs for many years to come. The successful bidder has an opportunity to provide a digital service that positively impacts the lives of children in Wales.. We invite potential suppliers and stakeholders to a virtual early market engagement event for our upcoming procurement. Join us to discuss the procurement plan, share your expertise, and help shape the service requirements.
 Your input will be invaluable in identifying innovative solutions.
 The event is on Monday, 24th March. Please register your interest by Thursday, 20th March 2025.

description:
Tender Process timing
 -	To ensure that the appropriate level of detail and due diligence is applied to any future tender it is has been established that a five-year extension to the current contract would be necessary for the following reasons;
 -	The need to provide a safe sustainable Clinical service during the tender process. The Clinical risk of not having an operational Medical Biochemistry and Immunology service within Cardiff and Vale is significant as the laboratory is involved in 70% of all Clinical decisions – around 90% of the work undertaken within the department requires a 2 hour turnaround from time of receipt to reporting of the result which can only be achieved with an onsite service supported by hardware and the LIMS system.
 -	12 months to write and refine the tender specification – there is currently no specification written other than the one issued around 2007 – this requires time to ensure all key points are covered
 -	24-36 Months to go through the tender process including viewing potential options open to us to ensure an informed choice is made.
 -	12-24 Months Implementation – this would include phasing out the current equipment following validation and verification of any new platforms - some assays may require significant patient rebase lining which means dual running to evaluate any change in results on a personal patient basis - during this period a contract will still be required with Abbott diagnostics.
 -	Tender processes – there is evidence from other sites within the UK including legal precedence that show the above is a realistic timeline.
 End of life-cycle equipment
 -	The current equipment provided under the managed service contract with Abbott including Alinity analysers and associated automation (sample tracking and movement system) is 8 years old and needs replacing. A five-year contract could achieve this cost effectively, but any lesser period would place huge financial pressures on the HB in duplicative costs and may not be achievable. In the short term, not changing the aging equipment now and attempting to run it for a further 2-3 years to undertake a procurement exercise (notwithstanding the technical/resource limitations) would create a significant patient risk as the analysers down time which is likely to increase, will have a detrimental effect on the department’s ability to turnaround the majority of work within the required 2 hours’ time window, this places patients at risk by not being able provide laboratory results to make a clinical decision. Accordingly, the indication is that a period of less than five years is not economically viable to replace the current system.
 -	There is also an indication that the automation is nearing its end of life, this is evidenced by the increased down time of individual components on the tracking system and time taken to obtain parts, life expectancy of this equipment is around 8 years although that is not a hard end point as with the LIMS, rather it is an unknown risk that could materialise or escalate in severity over time. Abbott Diagnostics are no longer contracting their track system to Inpeco and going forward would not be able to hold the risk under the MSC due to this contracting change.
 -	As indicated 8 years is the usual life cycle of both analytical and tracking systems, although the equipment is still fully functional down time will increase and for the track will take longer to obtain, this increased downtime will seriously affect our ability to meet the 2 hours’ time window for the return clinical results required to treat patients

locality: London

streetAddress: Royal Courts of Justice, The Strand

rationale:
Need for additional works, services or supplies by the original contractor/concessionaire: Replacement of 2 systems: the LIMS & the analytical system/hardware side by side. This is not a product of timing, but a legacy issue arising from Covid 19 pandemic in 20-21 that restricted planning such that timescales for procurement of two systems was condensed & then became overlapped to an unacceptable degree– due to the pressures of the pandemic and travel/social distancing restrictions placed on us during 20/21 the HB would have been unable to start a new tender process due to
 -	social distancing resulted in department split in 2 teams to ensure business continuity reducing scope to meet as senior management was split between teams –principle being no mixing of teams for several months – this system worked and at no time did the department suffer a significant outbreak supporting the ability to deliver a safe patient service at risk
 -	The pressure of designing and opening a new lab in the Dragon’s Heart hospital and stress & anxiety placed on staff due to being in a pandemic

description:
This modification outlines the need to extend the current managed service contract for an additional 60 months for continuation of service and provision of hardware that has become end of life and no longer supported. The modification will allow the Health Board to undertake a Tender renewal process in a controlled timeframe to allow appropriate market engagement and scoping of the requirements around the clinical service constraints that are outlined in sections II.2.4 and VII 2.2.
 Further to the information provided in the other sections it there are economic factors to also consider as the reasons for this modification. The financial consequence of being out of contract during the period of procurement and installation is significant to the organisation and is mentioned above. The particular issues are that the Health Board would:
 -	Lose the Managed service contract benefit – increasing the cost by 20% and CAV would need to carry the service risk
 -	Revert to list pricing for all products which would be significantly higher than current costs
 -	Be unable to upgrade equipment so would be running at significant service risk for a period of up to 5 years, this would place patients within the Cardiff and Vale location at significant clinical risk
 -	The economic benefits of a five-year extension represent a saving to the Health Board of over ten times the saving of a four-year contract and any shorter extension would result in no saving and an increase in cost to the Health Board on current annual cost.
 -	The value of the extension is GBP29,064,470.50 and as such the extension is less than 50% of the original contract value.

description:
It is considered that the requirements of 72(1)(b) are met in relation to the extension which has become necessary such that a change of contractor cannot be made for economic or technical reasons such as requirements of interchangeability or interoperability with existing equipment, services or installations procured under the initial procurement, or (ii)would cause significant inconvenience or substantial duplication of costs. The technical and economic reasons are set out below
 Technical issues involve:
 -	LIMS System
 -	Changing the LIMS is a major undertaking at any time and to do this as the same time as changing our major equipment platforms would not have allowed us to guarantee a patient safe service – the LIMS change cannot be delayed because of infrastructure issues which means the supplier cannot support the current system after the spring of 2026 giving a firm end point on the current system.
 -	The original contract award commenced in 2022 but did not progress due to various issues so was re-awarded in 2023 which meant all the work undertaken in 2022 was lost and we have needed to enter into an accelerated period of testing and evaluation due to the firm deadline of the spring of 2026, this is taking a significant amount of departmental resources to the point that key staff are having to undertake overtime to complete the work, these are the same individuals required to contribute to the tender specification.
 -	With the accelerated process of acceptance testing the plan to go live by early 2026 when there will be a further period of testing minor defects are repaired.
 -	Analytical Equipment
 -	To currently change the current analytical system to a new unknown system would place significant pressure on the team who are currently fully engaged in the testing and validation of the new Laboratory Information System – to implement a new system would require full technical and clinical evaluation against the current equipment for all assays including:
 -	Full Verification and validation of each assay
 -	Re-baselining patient on specific assays
 -	Full linearity checking of each assay
 -	Carry over and cross over experiences
 -	Technical retraining of the staff during this period of high pressure
 -	Experience has shown this can take up to 12 months of several senior staff full time – these are the same staff currently testing the laboratory information system while simple replacement to the same analytical system only required simple correlation checking as all other parameters have been checked

name: Commission for Tertiary Education and Research (Medr)

title: Appointment to design & deliver a training programme for student governors in HE & FE

description:
There are thirteen further education institutions and eight universities in Wales. The Further and Higher Education (Governance and Information) (Wales) Act 2014 requires all further education institutions to have two student governors on governing bodies. Higher education institutions are required by their own governing documents to include two student governors, and governing bodies’ engagement with students is referenced in the Committee of University Chair’s Code of Governance.Many of these student governors are elected by students, particularly in higher education as they are typically also sabbatical officers in their students’ unions. Their terms are often short, typically one year unless re-elected, so it is essential that they receive early, consistent and effective support to carry out their roles effectively.Medr’s predecessor HEFCW commissioned student governor training in 2023, which was continued by Medr in 2024.  We wish to commission a further, ongoing programme of training and support as part of our commitment to promoting learner engagement in decision-making across the tertiary education sector.Contract aim and objectives:Medr wishes to appoint a contractor to develop, organise, and run a training programme for all student governors at higher and further education institutions in Wales.This training programme should include in person event or events in September / October of that should be accessible to all student governors and other attendees such as Chairs and Secretaries/Clerks of Governing Bodies, and those who support student  governors such as CEOs of students’ unions, and further education institution support staff. There should also be touch points throughout the year to further support the student governors in carrying out their roles effectively.We anticipate that the training will be carried out during the autumn term 2025 and spring term 2026.The overall aims of the training programme are to ensure that student governors:*  understand what the role of a governor is and what their expectations should be;*  understand the role of a governing body for institutions;*  recognise the difference between corporate governance and academic governance;*  understands the wider tertiary (and specific higher and further education) policy landscape, including the responsibilities of Medr as a regulator, and how this is reflected in their own respective institutions;*  feel empowered to use their voice with the governing bodies;*  understand what a power imbalance is and how to work with power;*  understand and develop the skills needed to be effective student governors;*  learn strategies to manage conflicts of interest.The training will need to focus on the development of relationships including: the relationship between the student governor and the respective Chair and Secretary / Clerk of the Governing Body, and the relationship between the student  governors across all institutions.An evaluation survey and report should be constructed after the training to understand how to best improve for following years and evaluate the impact of the training programme. This should be provided to Medr in a report format each May for the duration of the contract, and contain recommendations to improve future training delivery.
