SITE IDENTIFICATION AND WORKS CONTRACT FOR NEW SUPPLY HOSUING
 Background
 Clyde Valley Housing Association (CVHA) was established in April 1996 and is a Registered Social Landlord. From its operational headquarters based in Motherwell, CVHA currently owns and manages circa 3,600 properties across North and South Lanarkshire and East Dunbartonshire Council.
 With the current new supply programme and funding this will increase to 4,600 properties. Since 1998 CVHA have invested in excess of 350,000,000 GBP in capital projects through the delivery of 112 separate build contracts. We have strong aspirations to increase our stock and are looking for developer / contractors that have sites identified, ideally under legal control or ownership and who could obtain all necessary consents then build out to completion
 Purpose of Notice
 The purpose of this notice is to identify future new supply sites or refurbishment opportunities and partners to deliver the build out within our areas of operation. CVHA will not determine the sites which are to be built out. After an initial assessment CVHA will use the returns from this process to submit information to the respective Councils for their Strategic Housing Investment Plan (SHIP) process.
 It is the intention of CVHA that if sites are included in the SHIP documents, Grant funding is made available and CVHA have the requisite private finance available, that a Design & Build contract would be entered into subject to the agreement of specification and final costs.
 All parties should be aware that even if a site is included within the SHIP document as a result of this process it is not guaranteed that CVHA will enter into a Design & Build Contract. It will be solely at the decision of CVHA to do so.
 You are asked to complete the tables below for any site that you would like to be considered.
 CVHA will initially assess the returns using the following criteria:-
 -	Location of proposed site in relation to the relevant Councils’ strategic priorities;
 -	Amenity of the proposed site(s);
 -	The density of the proposed site(s);
 -	Proposed property types and mix;
 -	Planning Status of the proposed Site(s);
 -	Statement regarding Site Investigation(s);
 -	Statement regarding Scottish Water Capacity;
 -	Local housing demand; and
 -	Track record of the developer / contractor for delivering affordable new build properties

 These economic operators shall be those who have:
 (i) submitted a compliant submission, comprising the completed ESPD;
 (ii) satisfied the relevant selection criteria under the exclusion grounds;
 (iii) (a) Minimum Standards of Eligibility—provided evidence of working on specified types of projects over a specified value;
 (b) Technical or Professional Ability—provided evidence demonstrating an acceptable level of technical or professional ability; and

 In terms of the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015, there will be a requirement on economic operators to provide proof of economic and financial standing and of technical and professional ability prior to proceeding to the next stage of the competition and contract award and the tender documents will contain specific provisions requiring tenderers to inform Transport Scotland of any changes to their economic and financial standing or technical and professional ability during the procurement competition. Further, Transport Scotland reserves the right to undertake further verification to ensure continuing compliance with the selection criteria at any time prior to contract award, including during any standstill period. If means of proof does not satisfy Transport Scotland's selection criteria and/or if an economic operator no longer meets the requirements set out in the tender documents it shall be excluded from this procurement competition. If this follows tender evaluation, including during any standstill period, the most economically advantageous tenderer shall be recalculated and requested to provide proof of economic and financial standing and technical and professional ability with a view to contract award.
 Economic operators who do not meet: selection criteria as set out in this contract notice; requirements leading to exclusion otherwise set out in the tender documents or who would otherwise be excluded automatically under Regulation 58(1)-(3) of the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015 or at the discretion (if exercised so as to exclude) of Transport Scotland under Regulation 58(4) or 58(8), shall be excluded from this procurement competition.

Transport Scotland intends to undertake a public procurement competition for the provision of Archaeology Services, which are required on Transport Scotland projects. The services comprise of Invasive Archaeology Services, Non-Invasive Archaeology Services, and Advisory Services.
 Over the forthcoming years, there a number of projects which shall require such archaeological services. These include, but are not limited to:
 -	A9 Dualling Programme; and
 -	A96 Dualling Programme
 Due to the repeat need for these services, coupled with the exact requirement and timings being unknown, it is considered that these services would be best met through the use of a framework agreement. Furthermore, due to the nature and quantum of the services it is intended that the services will be divided into 3 lots:
 -	Lot 1 – Advisory Services;
 -	Lot 2 – Low Value ‘Non-invasive and Invasive Investigations’ and ‘Post Excavation Services’ (contract values <100k GBP)
 -	Lot 3 – High Value ‘Non-invasive and Invasive Investigations’ and ‘Post Excavation Services’ (contract values >100k GBP)
 Following an analysis of future spend, the current estimated spend values per lot is as follows:
 -	Lot 1, 5M GBP
 -	Lot 2, 0.25M GBP
 - Lot 3, 21M GBP
 Transport Scotland is an agency of the Scottish Government and contracts in the name of and on behalf of the Scottish Ministers.
 Transport Scotland will conduct the proposed procurement process on behalf of the Scottish Ministers.

 VI.3) Additional information (Revised Text)
 Transport Scotland will conduct this procurement competition on behalf of the Scottish Ministers. Subject to the conclusion of the Framework Agreement, it is the intention that the Framework Agreement will be entered into between the Scottish Ministers and the most economically advantageous tenderer. Each economic operator shall be invited to submit a Tender on the same contract terms.
 To be considered for this procurement competition, economic operators must complete an ESPD through the Public Contract Scotland portal and submit the completed ESPD electronically by no later than 12 noon BST on 21 August 2020.
 Transport Scotland shall not evaluate any ESPD received past the specified deadline, unless the delay is caused by a situation out with the control of the economic operator, the determination of which shall be at the sole discretion of Transport Scotland. Compliance in achieving the specified deadline is the sole responsibility of the economic operator.
 Economic operators which alter their composition after making a submission or whose position has materially changed will be the subject of re-evaluation. Transport Scotland reserves the right, at any point, to request current and up-to-date information to enable re-evaluation of any economic operator. As set out in accordance with section II.2.9 above, an economic operator who no longer has the requisite: technical or professional ability; human resources; or economic and financial standing, as required under this Contract Notice shall be excluded from this procurement competition.
 Any request by economic operator’s for clarification of any part of the documentation shall be made using the Question and Answer feature on the Public Contract Scotland portal. If the query is commercially sensitive then it should be made to the following email address: debra.macleod@transport.gov.scot. The decision whether a request for clarification shall be considered commercially sensitive or not rests solely at the absolute discretion of Transport Scotland. The deadline to submit questions relating to the submission is 5pm on 7 August 2020.
 Transport Scotland shall not be responsible in any way to economic operators as a result of any delay or failure in answering any request for clarification or any decision not to answer a request for clarification (either in full or in part). Absence of a response from Transport Scotland shall not entitle economic operators to qualify their submission. Transport Scotland reserve the right not to conclude any Framework Agreement as a result of the procurement process initiated by this notice and to make whatever changes Transport Scotland deem appropriate to the content, process, timing and structure of the procurement process.
 Transport Scotland and the Scottish Ministers shall have no liability for any costs howsoever incurred by those participating in the competition. Economic operators should be aware that all information submitted to Transport Scotland may need to be disclosed and/or published by the Transport Scotland in compliance with the Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002.

III.1.3) Technical and professional ability of the Contract Notice Part A
 III.1.3) Technical and professional ability (Revised Text)
 List and brief description of selection criteria:
 Under ESPD: Question Ref. 4C1.2 economic operators shall be required to insert suitable responses to Statements (a) to (f) set out below, demonstrating that they have the required minimum standards of eligibility and technical and professional ability.
 Answers to these statements shall be provided by single economic operators and by groups of economic operators (group members should not respond individually).
 Response to Statement (a) shall be assessed on the basis of PASS or FAIL. Economic operators who fail to satisfy this minimum standard (either they answer ‘No’ or fail to provide an acceptable answer) shall be excluded from the procurement competition.
 Statement (b) is not scored but is required to be completed.
 The responses to Statements (c), (d), (e) and (f) shall be assessed on the basis of a score with a minimum threshold, using the following
 scoring mechanism:
 – Nil or inadequate response. Fails to demonstrate previous experience/capacity/capability relevant to this criterion (0 - Unacceptable);
 – Response is partially relevant but generally poor. The response shows some elements of relevance to the criterion but contains insufficient/limited detail or explanation to demonstrate previous relevant experience/capability/capacity (1 - Poor);
 – Response is relevant and acceptable. The response demonstrates broad previous experience, knowledge and skills/capacity/capability but may lack in some aspects of similarity e.g. previous experience, knowledge or skills may not be of a similar nature (2 - Acceptable)
 – Response is relevant and good. The response is sufficiently detailed to demonstrate a good amount of experience, knowledge or skills/capacity/capability relevant to providing similar services to similar clients (3 - Good)
 – Response is completely relevant and excellent overall. The response is comprehensive, unambiguous and demonstrates thorough experience, knowledge or skills/capacity/capability relevant to providing similar services to similar clients (4 - Excellent)
 An ESPD submission shall be marked as FAIL and will not be considered further if the score achieved for any statement is less than 2. Where a response is 2 or greater it shall be weighted in accordance with the following weightings: Statement (c) = 30%; Statement (d) = 30%; Statement (e) = 25%; Statement (f) = 15%. The weighted scores shall be aggregated to calculate a score out of 100 for the 4 statements.
 Words in excess of the maximum word limit for each statement will neither be considered nor scored.

Additional Information for III.1.2) - part B
 III.1.2) Economic and financial standing (Revised Text)
 Minimum level(s) of standards required:
 Economic operators shall be required to satisfy minimum standards of economic and financial standing. These are described below:
 Evaluation Criteria Ratios (Question Ref. 4B6)
 The following nine evaluation criteria shall be scored, for each year for the last two years of trading, or for the period which is available if trading for less than two years:
 1. Acid Test Ratio
 2. Cash Interest Cover Ratio
 3. Return on Capital Employed
 4. Operating Profit Ratio
 5. Net Worth
 6. Gearing
 7. Annual Contract Value to Turnover
 8. Filed Accounts
 9. Audit Report
 The scoring mechanism can be downloaded via the Additional Documents, located within the Additional Notice Options of the Public Contracts Scotland portal (www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk). For the purpose of calculating the Annual Contract Value to Turnover ratio the estimated value in II.2.6 of this Contract Notice shall be adopted. Similarly, the duration of the framework agreement shall be 4 years. This equates to an estimated value of 416.7k GBP for Lot 1, 62.5k GBP for Lot 2 and 1.75M GBP per annum per economic operator.
 The nine evaluation criteria will be individually scored and given a total aggregated score, out of a possible 50 marks, for each year of trading. Subsequently, each year’s score will be weighted, with the most recent (“Year 1”) weighted at 2/3rds and the previous (“Year 2”) weighted at 1/3rd, and then aggregated to form an overall score for the two years out of 50 marks.
 If the economic operator is trading for less than 2 years, their financial ratios for the most recent full year of trading will be weighted at 2/3rds scored out of the total 50 marks. If the economic operator is trading for less than 1 year the information provided under III.1.2 b), will be prorated up to 1 year to calculate financial ratios for the a full year and this will be weighted at 2/3rds and scored out of the total 50 marks.
 A submission shall be marked as a FAIL and will not be considered further if the score achieved by an economic operator (either a single economic operator or a group of economic operators) is less than 25 marks, out of the potential total aggregated score of 50 marks.
 A submission shall be marked as a FAIL and will not be considered further if the economic operator is unable to provide appropriate information to enable the calculation of the financial ratios.
 Where the submission has been submitted by a group of economic operators, the information submitted by each group member will be evaluated in the proportion of the percentage shareholdings or percentage equity/interest of each group member and a score determined for such group of economic operators on that basis.
 A “group of economic operators” is defined as an unincorporated consortium or joint venture.
 Insurance (Question Ref. 4B5) In response to Question Ref. 4B5 a, b and c economic operators must confirm they already have or can commit to obtain, prior to the commencement of the framework agreement, the following levels of insurance: Employer's (Compulsory) Liability Insurance = Lots 1 and 2 are 5M(million) GBP Lot 3 is 10M GBP, Public Liability Insurance = Lot 1 is 2M, Lot 2 and 3 are 5M GBP and Professional Indemnity Insurance = Lot 1 is 2M, Lot 2 is 1M and Lot 3 is 5M (GBP).
 Such insurances shall provide cover to a value of at least the value stated in respect of each and every claim in the period of the insurance, but shall be limited to the value stated in the aggregate in the period of insurance.
 In responding to Question Ref 4B.5 a, b and c, where the economic operator responds “No, and I cannot commit to obtain it” they shall be marked as FAIL and shall be excluded from this procurement competition.

description:
Additional Information for III.1.2) - part A
 III.1.2) Economic and financial standing (Revised Text)
 List and brief description of selection criteria:
 Economic operators shall be required to satisfy minimum standards of economic and financial standing. To determine these standards, economic operators shall:
 a) in response to ESPD, Question Ref 4B1a provide the specified annual turnover for the last two years of trading, or for the period which is available if trading for less than two years;
 b) in response to ESPD Question Ref 4B6 provide the name, range and score of nine financial criteria for each year for the last two years of trading, or for the period which is available if trading for less than two years; and
 c) in response to ESPD Question Ref 4B5a, b and c confirm they already have or can commit to obtain, prior to commencement of the contract the required levels of insurance.
 In addition to the information requested under (a) to (c), economic operators must provide a link/ copies of the associated annual accounts as filed at Companies House (or equivalent if not a UK registered company). For the avoidance of doubt, if an economic operator fails to provide accounts relating to its last two full years of trading that are due to have been filed, that economic operator shall be excluded from this procurement competition.
 Where economic operators have not yet been trading for a full two year period, such that filed accounts are not yet due and available, and limited only to that circumstance, the required information to support (a) to (c) above may take the form of appropriate third party / statements setting out turnover, profit and loss, cashflow (current and forecast) and the economic operator’s credit facility position. Note there will, however, be a negative scoring implication, as noted below and in the Additional Documents.
 This above information is requested to enable Transport Scotland to perform their own assessment and confirm the financial ratios submitted. Ultimately, ensuring the correct score is allocated, and to ensure no misinterpretation. Where there exist differences in ratios, between those provided and those calculated by Transport Scotland, clarification will be sought.

This modification allows contractors that have been appointed to the framework agreement to achieve a specified extent of compliance with certain functional and non-functional requirements which were all clearly identified in the procurement documents. This validation exercise is agreed to take 12 months. This modification then allows for 6 months for these practices to agree a new call-off contract following mini competition according to the rules of the framework agreement. This modification allows for a further 6 months transition from old services to new.

reviewDetails:
Economic operators should approach the contracting authority in the first instance. However, the only formalremedy is to apply to the courts:
 An economic operator that suffers or is at risk of suffering, loss or damage attributable to a breach of duty underthe Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015 or the Procurement Reform (Scotland) Act 2014, may bringproceedings in the Sheriff Court or the Court of Session

procurementMethod: limited

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

procurementMethodRationale: To provide continuation of essential current GP IT clinical system provision until services are replaced by the new services procured under the GP IT managed services framework agreement by NSS [2019/S024-053582]. The contracting authority relies on Regulation 72 (1)(b) of The Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015 where a change of contractor cannot be made for economic or technical reasons and it would cause significant inconvenience or substantial duplication of costs for the contracting authority, provided that any increase in price does not exceed 50 % of the initial contract value.

About CivTech
 CivTech brings together public sector expertise and private sector innovation to solve real problems, develop new products, and deliver better, faster and easier services for everyone. Central to the approach is co-production with the citizen.
 Part of the Scottish Government’s Digital Directorate, CivTech’s approach is helping transform public sector engagement with tech and innovation, delivering significant benefits to public services, producing genuine uplifts for the Scottish economy - and along the way, making lives better.
 Across the country there are problems public sector organisations would like to solve and in the current environment the need for smart, efficient and effective products has never been greater. The Scottish Government is aware innovation is a good way to create them and is committed to ensuring a large part of its tech spend goes to smaller, innovative businesses. This is where CivTech comes in.
 The CivTech Innovation Flow is designed to create solutions to public sector problems as quickly and effectively as possible. For you – whether you’re an individual, team or company – it’s an opportunity to take a Challenge, solve it, and win contracts with a blue-chip public sector organisation. You’ll build a product, and a business to take it as far as possible. Because here’s the kicker: the Challenges we issue aren’t ‘single organisation’ problems – most exist worldwide.
 In short: open Challenges are set. Any organisation, team or individual can respond to them. Applications are assessed, and shortlisted proposals go into an Exploration Stage where they’re developed further. The best go through to the Accelerator – a period of intensive work to create the solution, and through CivTech’s unique business workshop system, a business capable of taking the emerging product to the world.

title: CivTech 5 Challenge 6 - Increasing Digital Public Services Use Through Digital Inclusion

description:
How can technology help government drive up the use of digital public services amongst groups that have traditionally been digitally excluded?
 The Connecting Scotland programme is an ambitious initiative addressing the issue of digital exclusion, and in 2020-21 will be reaching thousands of previously digitally excluded people, providing them with a device, data and training to become active online. This has many economic and social benefits, both for individuals and the nation. One is increased access to digital public services – for example applying for benefits, video based GP consultations, and looking for information about training.
 Many of our users will be unaware of the digital public services they can access, be unfamiliar with using devices, and may have concerns or anxieties about even trying them out. So as well as providing devices and data, the programme focuses on overcoming these issues.
 Going forward, we would like to extend the reach of the programme to everyone who is excluded – currently around 1 in 8 people in Scotland has low to no digital skills, and around 300,000 households have no access to the internet at home. But this will require investment, and for that we need robust evidence of the programme’s value. In short, we need to demonstrate the programme is increasing the use of digital public services by collecting appropriate data - in a way that not only satisfies all statutory requirements but also builds trust with our users.
 How can tech help our users engage with and use digital public services, develop our evidence base, and build trust with our users?

name: Highlands and Islands Transport Partnership (HITRANS)

title: CivTech 5 Challenge 7 - How can we use technology to create a smart and sustainable travel network in remote and rural areas?

description:
The geography of the Highlands and Islands results in a challenging transport environment, covering almost 50% of Scotland’s landmass but with only 10% of its population. While dispersed settlements are reliant on a good transport network for connectivity and access to key services, the financial sustainability of traditional transport services is a significant challenge. Traditional models are based on a “critical mass” of demand which by its very nature is lacking in most rural and remote areas. Now more than ever it is important we understand the transport available for use within the region (including buses, ferries, trains, car clubs and cycling), and create a more flexible, demand-responsive system that meets the needs of users, calculates and understands travel patterns as well as addressing cost efficiencies and long-term viability. We know there here are huge opportunities to use technology to create a smart and sustainable travel network in remote and rural areas.
 So how can we transform the future of rural transport and support out highland communities to thrive?

CivTech, The Scottish Government’s flagship innovation programme, brings together public sector expertise and private sector innovation to solve real problems, develop new products, and deliver better, faster and easier services for everyone.
 Across the country there are problems public sector organisations would like to solve and in the current environment the need for smart, efficient and effective products has never been greater. The Scottish Government is aware innovation is a good way to create them and is committed to ensuring a large part of its tech spend goes to smaller, innovative businesses. This is where CivTech comes in.
 The CivTech Innovation Flow is designed to create solutions to public sector problems as quickly and effectively as possible. For you – whether you’re an individual, team or company – it’s an opportunity to take a Challenge, solve it, and win contracts with a blue-chip public sector organisation. You’ll build a product, and get support to develop your business to take it as far as possible.
 CivTech Sprints: open Challenges are set. Any organisation, team or individual can respond to them. Applications are assessed, and shortlisted proposals go into an Exploration Stage to be held between 16/11/20 and 30/11/20 where they’re developed further. The best go through to the MVP Development Stage, to be held between 14/12/20 and 05/03/21 where you will have 12 weeks to work collaboratively with your Challenge Sponsor to develop a Minimum Viable Product. From there the opportunity is for further contracts to develop your solution through to a commercially viable solution.
 The above dates are specific to this Challenge and respondent should be able to commit to the dates outlined. Please note this process is separate to the CivTech 5.0 Cohort of challenges and is working to a separate timescale.

CivTech brings together public sector expertise and private sector innovation to solve real problems, develop new products, and deliver better, faster and easier services for everyone. Central to the approach is co-production with the citizen.

Applications are assessed, and shortlisted proposals go into an Exploration Stage where they’re developed further. The best go through to the Development – a period of intensive work to create the solution, and through CivTech’s unique business workshop system, a business capable of taking the emerging product to the world.

From there may be an opportunity is for further contracts to develop your solution through to a commercially viable solution.
 Please note that with this Challenge, the opportunity for pre-commercial or follow-on contracts with the Challenge Sponsor, is not only dependent on the suitability and success of the MVP produced during the development stage; the opportunity for further contracts will be dependent on the Challenge Sponsor being able to secure further funding, which is not guaranteed. We welcome all ideas and applications, and particularly encourage proposals that can make the most of the Exploration and Development stages.
