title: Sustainable Primary Care for Jersey – Strategy Development.

description: Primary Care is integral to the delivery of safe, sustainable and affordable health and social services in the States of Jersey. In October 2012, as part of their approval of Proposition P82/2012 (the New Way Forward for Health and Social Care), the States Assembly requested that proposals to develop a new model of Primary Care (where 'Primary Care' for this purpose is defined as General Medical Practitioners, Dentists, high street Optometrists and Community Pharmacists), are completed by the end of 2014. The purpose of this tender exercise is to seek proposals for the development of a new model of Primary Care. The required models must ensure that sustainable, high quality Primary Care is available and accessible for Islanders and is integrated within the spectrum of other health and social services that Jersey residents need. It is intended that this project will build on previous work and outputs that have been progressing since November 2010 and that the work will be based on International best practice and will consider a range of professionals working within Primary Care settings. Interested bidders will only be considered credible if they can demonstrate their detailed, deep subject knowledge, experienced leadership and the skills and capacity to fully engage and consider a range of views and concerns.

title: Regional Malaria Programme.

description: UK Government is committed to help reduce malaria deaths in the worst affected countries. DFID will provide GBP 26 million of financial support to strengthen the use of data by decision makers in malaria endemic countries in Africa and ensure efficient use of a large proportion of the global annual spend of USD 1-2 billion on malaria. The programme will be over five years from 2013 to 2018. The last decade has seen impressive gains in malaria control. The massive increase in funding for malaria has helped to scale up interventions. Yet the gains are uneven and fragile, threatened by economic uncertainty. More efficient use of existing malaria resources can be achieved by targeting interventions to the local context and improving means of delivery. There is renewed interest by national malaria programme managers to understand their malaria problem so that malaria control interventions can be rationally selected, applied, optimized and evaluated. The new Global Fund financing model is an opportunity to leverage resources behind this approach. DFID is well-positioned to make a timely contribution to improving use of data to inform decision-making. Programme funds are supporting WHO and Roll Back Malaria (RBM) to play their respective roles in facilitating African countries to generate, manage and use information to optimise malaria control in the region. To enable the process of using data for decision making, 14 high burden African countries will be given technical assistance to harness and collate data on malaria and other nationally defined relevant indices. A contract will be awarded to an organisation, or consortium, that can demonstrate the ability to assemble data on malaria metrics, climate, population, health services and intervention coverage into nationally owned spatially defined databases. The product will need to be presented in a compelling way as it will be used to support national (and in some cases sub national) malaria planning processes and help target funding to achieve better value for money. The ambition should be to leave a legacy of African institutions that can assemble malaria and health data and a culture of using data for accelerating malaria control. The successful bidder will be expected to commence work from July 2014.

The optics are required to allow the plasma to be viewed both Radially and Axially. This configuration should provide sensitivity in Axial viewing for trace analysis whilst offering linearity of the Radial mode of operation for high concentrations and alkali metals analysis. The selection of axial or radial viewing must be fully software controlled with automated optimisation of the plasma alignment in both the vertical and horizontal directions. It is essential that the spectrometer covers the full spectral range of 165 – 782nm with resolution of at least 0.006nm at 200nm. The spectrometer must be able to perform determinations across the UV and visible spectrum. Furthermore, the instrument must be able to determine all elements of interest using one analytical method, with multiple wavelengths per element, in axial or radial mode. The entire optical system must be enclosed in a purged and thermostatted optical enclosure. The system detector must be solid state that is optimised for performance across the entire emission spectrum. Each detector pixel must have anti-blooming protection to enable simultaneous measurement of trace level analytes in the presence of major matrix constituents. The detector should be cooled by a Peltier device to minimise detector dark current which should enhance the instrument performance and detection limits. The RF generator must be solid-state at a frequency of 40MHz and hence will not need the periodic replacement of expensive PA valves. It should ideally incorporate maintenance free flat plate plasma technology and not be helical-coil induced. This design means the lowest argon consumption. If this technology is not available, supplier must state what features are available for reduced argon consumption. The RF generator start-up and shut-down should be fully computer controlled and automated. The torch exhaust vent should be at no more than 200CFM for safe and efficient operation.

The instrument controller must be a minimum industry standard 3.0GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 1333MHz Front Side Bus, 6M L2 cache with Windows 7 Professional. Memory 2GB Non-ECC, 1066MHz, DDR3, 2 x 1GB with four DIMM slots. Additionally, a DVD drive and hard disk of a minimum 160GBytes or above of storage with a minimum 20 inch flat panel screen. The instrument must have the ability to perform two forms of spectral interference correction, the traditional Interfering Element Correction (IEC) and advanced peak deconvolution algorithms. Software specifications: Microsoft Windows 7, with password security features. Software should be able to append a method to the autosampler after a run has begun. The system must include a data acquisition mode which enables users to collect all spectral data for every sample regardless of the elements being determined. This will allow analysis retroactively determining the concentrations of elements not determined by the original method. Furthermore the software should allow users to insert priority samples at any time during analysis without stopping the original sequence or interrupting the run time. The software must be able to display all peak data from an analysis simultaneously and should allow for background correction automatically. Raw data analysis should be possible for post-run reprocessing. A minimum of 35 calibration standards and blanks should be a standard feature. The software should allow archiving of data and include the ability to design custom QC protocols. The instrument should come equipped with a spares kit including consumables. The vendor must specify published 3σ detection limits for all elements in (µg/L) and also specify instrument FWHM peak resolution specifications.
