The University of Edinburgh (UoE) Royal (Dick) Vet School of Veterinary Studies proposes to purchase a Vender Neutral Archiving System, to be on-prem with software as a service as the best value option.
 The Vet School’s current PACS system is not covered by a formal contract due to expiring a number of years ago. The current system in use is unable to interface with key technology resulting in a potential loss and misinterpretation of data and requires very close monitoring from the Schools IT Team. Not having a contract with the supplier is making it difficult to support, resulting in a loss of service. Therefore, the Vet School require a Vender Neutral Software Application to hold Image Capture and associated documents from cases worked on with the Small Animal Hospital.

reviewDetails:
The University of St Andrews will incorporate a minimum of 10 calendar day standstill period at the point of information on the award of the contract being communicated to tenderers. This period allows unsuccessful tenderers to seek further debriefing from the contracting authority before the contract is entered into. Applicants have 2 working days from the notification of the award decision to request additional debriefing and that information has to be provided a minimum of 3 working days before the expiry of the standstill period. Such additional information should be requested from The University of St Andrews.
 If an appeal regarding the award of contract has not been successfully resolved The Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2012 provide for aggrieved parties who have been harmed or are at risk of harm by a breach of the rule to take action in the Sheriff Court or Court of Session.
 The anticipated review body in such cases would be:
 Dundee Sheriff Court
 6 West Bell Street
 Dundee
 DD1 9AD
 Telephone: +44 1382 229 961
 Anyone bringing court proceedings against the University of St Andrews must inform the University of St Andrews in advance of the alleged breach and its intention to bring proceedings. Any such action must be brought within 15 days of the date on which a decision is sent to them or published to challenge that decision.
 Proceedings seeking an ineffectiveness order must be brought within 30 days of the publication of the contract award notice in the OJEU, or 30 days from the date of a decision letter to all tenderers concerned, and any candidates concerned, containing a summary of the reason for the recipient being unsuccessful, otherwise 6 months from the date of entering into the contract or concluding the framework agreement.
 Where a contract has not been entered into the Court may, by interim order, suspend the procurement procedure. The court may also set aside a decision or actions taken by the University or order it to amend and document; and/or award damages. However, by express requirement the court may decide not to grant an interim order when the negative consequences of such an order are likely to outweigh the benefits, having regard to a number of considerations.
 If the contract has been entered into the Court may, depending on the nature of the breach: make an ineffectiveness order; impose a financial penalty; shorten the duration of the contract; make any other order considered appropriate to address the consequences of ineffectiveness or shortening the duration or the contract; award damages.

Community benefits are included in this requirement. For more information see:
 http://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/info/InfoCentre.aspx?ID=2361
 A summary of the expected community benefits has been provided as follows:
 The Public Sector in Scotland is committed to the delivery of high quality public services, and recognises that this is critically dependent on a workforce that is well-rewarded, well-motivated, well-led, has access to appropriate opportunities for training and skills development,diverse and engaged in decision making. These factors are also important for workforce recruitment and retention, and thus continuity of service.
 Public Bodies in Scotland are adopting fair work practices, which include:
 A fair and equal pay policy that includes a commitment to supporting the Living Wage, including, for example being a Living Wage Accredited Employer;
 clear managerial responsibility to nurture talent and help individuals fulfil their potential, including for example, a strong commitment to Modern Apprenticeships and the development of Scotland's young workforce;
 Promoting equality of opportunity and developing a workforce which reflects the population of Scotland in terms of characteristics such as age, gender, religion or belief, race, sexual orientation and disability;
 Support for learning and development;
 Stability of employment and hours of work, and avoiding exploitative employment practices, including for example no inappropriate use of
 zero-hours contracts;
 Flexible working (including for example practices such as flexi-time and career breaks) and support for family friendly working and wider
 work life balance;
 Support progressive workforce engagement, for example Trade Union recognition and representation where possible, otherwise alternative
 arrangements to give staff an effective voice.
 In order to ensure the highest standards of service quality in this contract we expect contractors to take a similarly positive approach to fair work practices as part of a fair and equitable employment and reward package.

 The contract is expected to run for 2 years with optional two periods of up to 12 months each.
 The council has eighteen bunkered fuel sites which dispense circa. 5.5 million litres of fuel per year to 2,500 authorised vehicles and drivers 24 hours per day, 365 days per year.

 The council requires these systems to be replaced with a single modern, 3 or 4G FMS, which will encompass the entire fuel estate. Thus allowing the monitoring of all fuel activity, including all current fuel types and with the ability to monitor alternative fuels such as Compressed Gas Hydrogen and Electricity.
 Currently, identification fobs are used to allow access to the fuel system. The new system must offer similar or improved secure access systems, such as Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) or Can BUS readers, to identify vehicles and authorised users prior to fuel dispensation and allow for smart fleet data capture in identifying vehicles, drivers and collecting vehicle odometer data.
 The council requires to appoint one supplier to provide all element of this contract to include supply, installation and maintenance of new fuel management system and existing fuel infrastructure maintenance for the council’s eighteen fuel sites. As these requirements may come from two specialist areas, the council will allow organisations to working in partnership, with one organisation taking the lead..
