description:
North Lanarkshire Council (the Council) are seeking to continue their innovative ‘development pathfinder’ approach for the purchase of newly built new affordable homes for social / affordable housing in North Lanarkshire.
 The scale of the ambitious new build programme presents a number of delivery challenges, not least in procuring enough homes that meet the required standard and which can be delivered in a cost-effective and timely way. Therefore it is proposed to expand the use of ‘off the shelf’ acquisitions of completed homes from private developers.
 The Council already acquires completed homes from developers on private sector sites as part of developers’ affordable housing policy obligations in the Cumbernauld housing market area and in Ravenscraig, Motherwell. At time of publication of this Prior Information Notice, 117 homes have been purchased in this way with agreement for a further 104 to be purchased in future.
 In addition to the agreement detailed above, a ‘development pathfinder’ approach is proposed whereby the Council would proactively engage with developers about bringing forward private sector housing sites, on which the Council may be able to purchase properties. This approach may bring forward additional affordable homes and reduce both costs and risks associated with the Councils new build programme. It may also be attractive to developers as it could de-risk their investments (by providing a guaranteed buyer for at least some of the homes on a site) and secure their supply chains. It may also enable the development of alternative tenures, including mid-market rent and shared equity. The approach could therefore help stimulate private sector delivery, attracting new jobs and residents into North Lanarkshire
 Under the development pathfinder approach, the Council would not undertake a formal procurement procedure by issuing tender documentation specifying its requirements for a particular site etc. Instead, the Council would engage directly with the market, providing outline guidance on its ambitions on the location, site mix etc. for acquisition of units in particular geographical areas.
 The Council would, in asking developers to come forward with proposed sites, be under no obligation to purchase homes. The Council would, on a case by case basis, have to satisfy itself that it is acting within its powers, reflecting on its obligations under procurement legislation. Any proposals received would be evaluated to ensure value for money can be demonstrated. This approach would by necessity result in less control being exercised by the Council in respect of the design of homes that may be built and the pace of development, relative to those projects where the Council acts as employer in a traditional works contract. Any agreements made with developers will be subject to a ‘longstop’ set out in missives, enabling the Council to break the agreement should the development not be delivered within the required timescales.
 To ensure that the Council can effectively engage with interested parties and efficiently consider and respond to any enquiries and proposals made, the Council will employ this approach across North Lanarkshire where there is higher demand and / or a significant re-provisioning programme. As outlined above private housing sites in the Cumbernauld housing market area are already subject to obligations in respect of the Affordable Housing Policy - SPG 13 (https://www.northlanarkshire.gov.uk/planning-and-building/planning-applications/our-supplementary-planning-guidance) which can result in the Council, or a housing association, purchasing homes from developers.
 Further information in regards to engagement is stated within section VI.3) Additional information of this notice.

description:
The process for engagement with the market for this development pathfinder approach is as follows:
 -This advert prepared and placed on the Public Contract Scotland stating that the Council are looking for set numbers of certain sizes of homes within designated Council housing areas.
 -Interested parties who feel that they meet the parameters outlined should submit their proposals to newhousingsites@northlan.gov.uk
 -All proposals submitted will be assessed by the Council to determine if the proposals meet the Council’s requirements in terms of cost, quality and type of housing
 -Following assessment of proposals and any further negotiations, the developer and the Councils Estates team would agree a price that is value for money for the Council. The Council are seeking to secure a bulk purchase discount that would be negotiated in a site by site basis.
 -Missives would be agreed between the developer and the Council.
 -Payment method would be agreed between the developer and the Council with methods such as turnkey purchases or payment at agreed stages being considered on a site by site basis.
 Proposal Requirements and Assessment
 Proposals received will be evaluated to determine if the they meet the Council’s requirements over a number factors including (but not limited to) cost, quality, locality and type of housing.
 All proposals received by the Council will be assessed in an equal, fair and transparent manner to ensure sites proposed meet the demands of the Council.
 Proposals must be:
 -for sites designated as suitable for housing in the current or emerging Local Development Plan https://www.northlanarkshire.gov.uk/planning-and-building/development-plans
 -of the right type and in the right location to meet housing needs of the Council;
 -for homes which meet the required accessibility and sustainability standards for new social homes (Housing for Varying Needs and Silver Aspects 1 and 2 or their industry standard equivalents);
 Other Requirements
 -Company must own or have an option on the site.

reviewDetails:
Economic operators should approach the contracting authority in the first instance. However, the only formal remedy 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 under the Public Contracts(Scotland) Regulations 2015 or the Procurement Reform (Scotland) Act 2014, may bring proceedings in the Sheriff Court or the Court of Session.

procurementMethodRationale: Call-off from the NHS Digital Terminology Solutions Framework Agreement ensures a compliant procurement route without a requirement to complete the full procurement process. A full procurement process was undertaken by NHS Digital (England) for Terminology Servers – the result of which is a single supplier Framework Agreement with Dedalus, ensuring value for money is achieved through any subsequent call-off.

Award of Contracts
 The Council and NHS Lothian, through the EHSCP, have a statutory duty to provide access to independent advocacy services to people who meet the requirements of Adults with Incapacity (Scotland) Act 2000, the Adult Support and Protection (Scotland) act 2007, the Carers (Scotland) Act 2016, The Children (Scotland) Act 1995 and the Mental Health (Care and Treatment)(Scotland) Act 2003. Section 259 of the 2003 Act sets out the main provisions for independent advocacy. Independent advocacy supports an advocacy partner's right to have their own voice heard in decisions made about their health and well-being. Independent advocacy enables vulnerable people to be heard and promotes social inclusion.
 Independence is key in the advocacy partners right to advocacy, because it is vital that the role of independent advocacy is not compromised in any way. Independence ensures that the advocacy services provided are divorced from the interests of those persons concerned with the advocacy partner's care and welfare.
 Independent advocacy services can only be provided by organisations who meet the requirements of the Scottish Independent Advocacy Alliance (SIAA) or equivalent. The SIAA define an independent advocacy organisation as “an organisation that only provides independent advocacy and all the activities it undertakes are about providing, promoting, supporting and defending independent advocacy. Independence means that it does not provide any other services and is structurally, financially and psychologically separate from other organisations and interests”.
 Information about independent advocacy services will need to be communicated to advocacy partners in a way which each advocacy partners can understand, taking account of any special communication needs they may have. Such needs may arise, for example, where the advocacy partners is deaf or hard of hearing or has a visual impairment, a learning disability or where their first language is not English. n addition, any information provided in writing should be clear and in a style and language which can be easily understood by the individual advocacy partner.
 The Service shall be predominately provided face to face to Advocacy Partners within the city of Edinburgh from either the office premises or in an agreed venue or space within the locality where the Advocacy Partner resides. If the Advocacy Partner is in a hospital ward, then the Service shall be delivered there.

awardCriteriaDetails:

Please note that Lot's awarded cover both independent and collective advocacy requirements. These services will be developed with the needs and outcomes of Edinburgh Citizen’s being a priority. Throughout the life of the contract, if evidence suggests there is a need to do so, the Council may modify the contract as required due to change in client groups, change in funding, change in delivery focus or as may be required to respond to necessary changes such as the introduction of a National Care Service. Development over the life of the contract will be in line with the Ethical Commissioning Principles and with consultation of the contracted providers and service users.
 It is a mandatory requirement of these contractual arrangements that a prompt payment clause is present in all supply chain Contracts used in the delivery of the requirements. This ensures payment of sub-contractors at all stages of the supply chain within 30 days and includes an obligation to provide a point of contact for sub-contractors to refer to in the case of payment difficulties. This will require active monitoring of payment performance as well as the provision of evidence and reports to the Council on request.
