The University of Southampton is seeking a managed library book store (LS) for items relocated from the University Library.
We expect a fully secure, environmentally controlled storage facility which conforms to BS 4971.2, or equivalent. The temperature is maintained at 17.5°C ± 1°C and Relative Humidity at 52% ± 5%.  Materials should be stored in archival standard trays according to their size and kept in sequence.
The Hartley Library, located at the Highfield campus in Southampton, contains approximately 1,000,000 items, mainly printed books and journals. We are planning a collections assessment in 2023-24, which will see some items retained at the Hartley Library, other items relegated to a LS from July 2023 onwards and the remaining items deaccessioned (withdrawn from the collection). This work will be undertaken by a specialist team within the Library and supervised by the Collections Development Team at the University Library. It will precede a major refurbishment of the Hartley Library in 2024-25.
There will be approximately 600,000 printed books retained at the Hartley Library, 200,000 printed books relegated to a LS and 200,000 printed books deaccessioned.
We anticipate that items relegated to the LS will be housed appropriately for storage efficiency and easy retrieval.
Items held in the LS will be subject to annual retention-in-store reviews, and a small number recalled for deaccessioning year-on-year.  Conversely, we anticipate that a similar small number of items will be relegated to the LS following retention-on-site (at the Hartley Library) annual reviews.
We expect that between 1-2% of items relegated to the LS may be subject to a recall, in response to a user request. Items should be placed in suitable shipping packaging for collection by a University of Southampton approved courier (most urgent) or shipped by Royal Mail tracked postage (non-urgent).
Items shipped from the University of Southampton Library will be categorised as 'standard' unless it is indicated as 'high value'.  Stock will be categorised as high value in terms of scarcity and/or financial value.
All other potential risks, such as, fire, vermin, flooding, must be monitored and controls should be in place to mitigate these risks.
There must be a clear line of communication with the University for all matters including incident reporting.

mainProcurementCategory: works

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

procurementMethodRationale:
On the 29 March 2023 National Highways entered into deeds of variation with the suppliers on the Delivery Integration Partner Framework (the “Framework”). These deeds of variation extend the duration of the Framework for those suppliers until 28 February 2026. The variation also amends the scope to make clear that projects that form part of Road Period 3 (2025-2030) in addition to those in Road Periods 1 and 2, may be awarded through the framework, and this may include projects designated as Road Period 3 pipeline schemes and housing infrastructure land and housing investment grant schemes.
The Framework was originally awarded on 19 November 2018 for a period of 6 years pursuant to the OJEU notice with reference 2018/S 010-017461.
The variation is a permitted modification pursuant to Regulation 72(1)(e)/72(8)  because:
•	the modification does not render the framework agreement materially different in character from the one originally concluded and does not extend the scope considerably . The nature of the tasks that may be performed by Framework suppliers remains the same as those set out in the original procurement i.e. the development, design and construction of capital road projects;
•	the modification does not change the economic balance of the Framework in favour of the suppliers in a way not originally provided for. While projects that could be awarded under the Framework may now fall within Roads Period 3, the overall value of the Framework will remain within the originally advertised value of £8.7 billion. The modification will also not result in any changes to the economic risk profile or the terms of any individual contracts let under the Framework;
•	no new suppliers are introduced to the Framework;
•	for the reasons set out above,  the modification does not introduce conditions which, had they been part of the initial procurement procedure would have allowed for the admission of other candidates; allowed for the acceptance of other tenders; or attracted other participants.
For the avoidance of doubt, National Highways is not required to publish this notice but does so in the interests of transparency.
National Highways is currently engaged in the procurement of its Integrated Delivery Framework (“IDF”) (please see PIN reference 2023/S 000-003678).  This modification ensures continuity of framework provision and scheme delivery until it is succeeded by the IDF arrangements.

description: Machine guns

mainProcurementCategory: goods

procurementMethodDetails: Negotiated without publication of a contract notice

procurementMethodRationale:
The International Guns, Missiles and Rockets Project Team (IGMR PT), on behalf of the United Kingdom Ministry of Defence (UK MoD), is intending to place a 5-year contract, of approximately £3.5m with Dillon Aero for the provision of In-Service Support for the M134D Machine Gun System on Chinook platforms. The in-service support includes the supply of weapon systems and parts, repair, modification, technical support ( including fault investigation)  and spares.
it should be considered that this contract can be placed using the non-competitive negotiated procedure, pursuant to Regulation 16(1)(a)(ii) of the Defence Security Public Contracts Regulations (DSPCR) 2015, due to technical reasons.
 M134D is the main weapon system that is fitted across the Chinook fleet, actively deployed on operations and with a heavy involvement in almost all operations since entering service. The requirement is to maintain the capability of M134D on Chinook platforms, by providing a means to purchase replacement items, as well as having support for investigating potential faults, repairs, modifications or other technical advice.
Dillon Aero Inc hold all the technical knowledge, manufacturing equipment/tooling, interoperability data and safety documentation required to fulfil the contract, maintain the capability and fulfil user requirements. Dillon Aero Inc are the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) and Design Organisation (DO) of the M134D Machine Gun System. Dillon are the only manufacturer and supplier of the parts required for spares, as well as the only supplier having the specific tooling and expertise to make repairs/modifications. Any non-OEM components used in combination with the existing fleet will invalidate all safety and performance assurances. For the reasons of technical impracticability and specific technical knowledge, which only Dillon Aero has at its disposal, the contract may only be awarded to Dillon Aero Inc.

With reference to SPD question 4B.6 West Lothian Council will use Dun and Bradstreet’s DBAi financial reporting system to assess the financial stability of tenderers. Tenderers with a Failure Score of 50 or above on the DBAi system will be deemed to have evidenced satisfactory financial stability. Please note that 49 or less will not be considered as having met this criteria. If a tenderer has a Failure Score of less than 50, the tenderer may be required to submit their last three years accounts.
In the event that the tenderer is not required to publish accounts and therefore does not have a Dun & Bradstreet or equivalent rating, tenderers should be able to provide financial accounts when requested.  The council will then conduct an analysis of the accounts to ensure that there is no significant financial risk. Please note that if you intend on attaching 2 years accounts, these must include financial data over a 3-year period.
It is recommended that candidates review their own Dun & Bradstreet Score in advance of submitting their tender.  If following this review tenderers consider that the Dun & Bradstreet Score does not reflect their current financial status, details of this should be provided, complete with evidence of a good high street credit rating (the equivalent of Dun & Bradstreet score 50) from a recognised credit referencing agency.  The council will review any such information as part of the evaluation of Tenderer’s financial status.
In the event that a firm does not meet the financial criteria for consideration but has a parent company that does, the firm may still be eligible for consideration where their Tender Submission is supported by a Parent Company Guarantee.
Should after review of the financial evaluation the tenderer fail, then the tender submission may be rejected.
With reference to ESPD Q4B.5.1a&b; It is a requirement of this contract that bidders hold, or can commit to obtain prior to the commencement of any subsequently awarded contract, the types and levels of insurance indicated below:

1.	A small Emergency Breathing System (EBS) provides a means to extend the time available for a user to remain underwater while actioning emergency egress drills from a capsized or submerged rotorcraft. Such a system is required by the MOD for aircrew to ensure that Risk to Life (RtL) is As Low As Reasonably Practicable (ALARP) and tolerable.
2.	UK MOD personnel shall, as far as is reasonably practicable, be provided the means to extend time underwater so that escape from an aircraft, which has capsized or submerged as a result of an attempted controlled ditching or an uncontrolled water impact, is achievable if not constrained by external factors outside of what is expected.
3.	The aim of this procurement is to:
a.	Procure an EBS to BS EN 4856:2018 Category A (in the region of 1300 units).
b.	Provide a through-life Integrated Logistics Support (ILS) solution for that EBS covering Training, Servicing, Maintenance and Repair.
c.	Deliver improved Social Value during the term of the Contract.
4.	Background
4.1.	When a helicopter ditches, it commonly inverts and sinks rapidly. Even if the accident is survivable, historic data shows that approx. fifteen percent of the crew and occupants will perish. When ditching in water the inability to breath-hold long enough to make an escape from the rapidly sinking, flooded, inverted helicopter represents a major hazard. This hazard increases in cold water because, in this situation, maximum breath-hold time can be just a few seconds. EBS provide means to extend the time available for users to remain submerged under water whilst actioning emergency egress drills from a submerged Air System.
5.	The Requirement
5.1.	The Single Statement of Need (SSON), for an emergency breathing system is: UK MOD personnel shall, as far as is reasonably practicable, be provided the means to extend time underwater so that escape from an aircraft, which has capsized or submerged as a result of an attempted controlled ditching or an uncontrolled water impact, is achievable if not constrained by external factors outside of what is expected.
5.2.	Aim of the procurement is to:
1.	Procure an Emergency Breathing System (EBS) to BSEN 4856: 2018 and to reduce Risk to Life (RtL) to As Low As Reasonably Practicable (ALARP);
2.	Create a contract with the same supplier which provides a through-life procurement and support solution to improve repairs and spares availability, reduce delivery times and minimise the future contract management burden for The Authority: and
3.	Maintain or reduce the overall cost of ownership through life.
5.3.	The procurement has three major outcomes required from the same supplier and contract as follows:
1.	One off bulk procurement and delivery to shelf of new compliant EBS units to be delivered in FY 23/24. This will be in the region of 1,300 units depending on budget and final price.
2.	To create a through-life contract which supports the following elements:
i.	Repair of agreed components by the OEM. e.g., mouthpiece and regulator and bottle regulator;
ii.	Provision of simple repair packs for second line to use;
iii.	Provision of parts to second line as required;
iv.	EBS equipment unit serviced by the OEM;
v.	Design and deliver 10 “Train the trainer” courses for 5 x maintainer instructors  and 5 x user instructors;
vi.	Design and support the set–up, evaluation, support and delivery of test articles;
vii.	Creation of a support help desk/portal to manage and resolve satisfactorily:
a.	Technical enquires or issues;
b.	Spares identification;
c.	New unit, spares, repairs or servicing (if required) enquires and order placement
d.	Delivery times on new orders or work in progress;
e.	Training issues and documentation;
f.	Safety issues and documentation; and
g.	ILS issues and documentation.
3.	To deliver improved Social Value during the term of the contract.

title: Grounds Maintenance Services

rationale:
Need for modification brought about by circumstances which a diligent contracting authority/entity could not foresee: At the end of January 2020 the previous contract term with Continental Landscapes Ltd under Public Contracts Regulations 2015 72 (1) (b) was extended for a three-year period until this 31st December 2024.  When this decision was taken it was the intention of the Council to examine the scope of works that could be included in any future arrangement.  This would have provided a timeframe to explore options to expand the scope of works, improve the seasonal balance and reduce the need for temporary staff. This would have had the added benefit of potentially aligning other existing arrangements to provide a more efficient and effective service.
Immediately after this decision was made, in February 2020 the key officers involved were tasked with preparing for the Covid-19 pandemic response and in particular to review relevant
business continuity arrangements. The impact on capacity to undertake the planned review has continued until the recently implemented end to national restrictions and therefore the
benefits of the extension secured in January 2020 have not been realised.
Given this two-year hiatus that could not have been foreseen, there is an option to further vary the existing contract by extending the term for a two-year period from the end of the existing contract until 31st December 2026.

description: The current contract is to be extended by a 2 year period, the cost of the extension is 10 379 000.00 GBP.

title: Extension of Train Services Agreement (TSA) with Siemens PLC for Class 185 vehicles that are already operated on the TPE rail network.

description:
In preparation for an award of a National Rail Contract from the Department for Transport to Transpennine Express Limited (operated by First Group), it is intended to extend the TSA with Siemens PLC for the fleets of trains currently under a TSA with Siemens PLC. The TSA is expected to be extended in accordance with paragraph II.2.4 below.
The Contracting Authority will observe a 10 day standstill period from the date of issue of this notice prior to entering into the TSA extension with Siemens PLC.
The Standstill Period will end on 10th April 2023.
Please see PIN Ref (published by DfT) : 2022/S 000-006951 Dated 15th March 2022.

description: Repair, maintenance and associated services of vehicles and related equipment

procurementMethodRationale:
• The works, supplies or services can be provided only by a particular economic operator for the following reason:
• absence of competition for technical reasons
Explanation:
This fleet of trains have been in operation on the TPE network since 2006. The trains are:
1. Maintained at purpose-built depots across the TPE network. Any change in the maintenance provider would result in either (a) TPE having to re-diagram the whole fleet from alternative maintenance and servicing locations or (b) the entire Siemens TPE depot infrastructure and staffing being transferred to an alternative supplier. These activities cannot be completed within the timescales required.
2. All special tools and other equipment on the depot are managed by the maintenance provider.  Some spares are owned by the maintenance provider. An alternative supplier will not be able to source these maintenance spares within the timescales required.
3. Siemens currently have the technical knowhow of the Class 185 fleet which have been built over the last 20 years of operation. Any change of maintenance provider will cause considerable disruption to the operation of the Class 185 fleet.
4. Due to the Class 185's being in the later part of their vehicle life, overhaul activities are being conducted on this fleet. Any change in supplier will disrupt this activity and affect the operation of the fleet on the network.
It will therefore be extremely difficult for any new maintenance provider to obtain DAA agreements, mobilise/train staff, tools, infrastructure etc prior to the 28th May 2023.

This appointed Conservation Team, led by the Conservation Surveyor or Architect, will survey a sample selection of 1504 listed buildings, across five geographic locations in Northern Ireland.
The Conservation Team will assess and score the condition of the buildings in the sample survey, and complete a simple risk matrix on same. The survey is solely on the condition of the exterior envelope of the buildings, therefore internal access to the properties is therefore not required.
The Conservation Team will statistically analyse the collected data and provide a report on the findings. This will include a comparison of the collected data with that of the 2013 Baseline Condition Report.
The data collected will assist the Historic Environment Division in evaluating it policies. The survey fulfils a Ministerial commitment made in response to the 2021 report of the Culture Arts and Heritage Taskforce.

title: IMS3 Contract for the Provision of Information Management Services

description: In February 2021, DHSC launched a competitive procedure with negotiation procurement exercise for a replacement provider of the IMS3 service. This exercise is on track and DHSC expect to award the Contract within expected timescales (with the assumption that the negotiation phase is not invoked). Whilst the transition to the new supplier is feasible under the IMS3 Contract term there remain risks that it may not be complete in this timeframe which would impact on service continuity and cause significant disruption for the authority.

Modification Notice 2:

The contract has been modified as follows:
- the contract period has been extended. The modification extends the contract by 9 months. The new expiry date is 31.01.2023.
- the service lines and assets under the contract will become a ‘legacy’ service tower and the ‘legacy’ service tower will diminish over time, aligned to the end of the contract.
- other minor and incidental technical changes to the contract required as part of this extension. These changes include: amendments of relevant timings to ensure that they reflect operational realities; exit and services transfer arrangements to reflect the requirements of the current situation and reducing the amount of time required for termination of certain service towers; reviewing obligations to upkeep certain software; and termination assistance.
The increase in value of £5 400 000.00 GBP from £136 300 000.00 GBP to £141 700 000.00 GBP is made up of the continuation of services during the extended contract period.

periodRationale: This contract will be superseded by IMS4, which is being formally tendered.  There is a requirement to extend the IMS3 contract to cover the tendering and contract award timetable.

description:
Modification Notice 3:

The contract has been modified as follows:
- the contract period has been extended. The modification extends the contract by 9 months. The new expiry date is 31.10.2023.
- the service lines and assets under the contract will become a ‘legacy’ service tower and the ‘legacy’ service tower will diminish over time, aligned to the end of the contract.
- other minor and incidental technical changes to the contract required as part of this extension. These changes include: amendments of relevant timings to ensure that they reflect operational realities; exit and services transfer arrangements to reflect the requirements of the current situation and reducing the amount of time required for termination of certain service towers; reviewing obligations to upkeep certain software; and termination assistance.
The increase in value of £646,000 GBP from £141,700,000 GBP, to £142,346,000 GBP is made up of the continuation of services during the extended contract period.

description:
(i) Whilst the transition to the new supplier is feasible under the IMS3 Contract term as extended to 30 April 2022, there is a risk that it may not be complete in time due to approvals needed for the new service taking longer than expected, the scale of service being provided due to reorganisations of ALBs and test and trace as well as other current consuming organisations transition plans taking longer than expected. As well as;
(ii) The level of technical transformation and remediation required of the services under the contract in order to transition to the new provider is not feasible within the current term.
(iii) A change of supplier cannot be made from Atos to another supplier prior to the previous expiry date for both technical and economic reasons. This is due to the nature and complexity of the current IMS3 IT infrastructure and estate, the necessary transitional activities and the significant service disruption and cost that will arise in the event of a premature transition. For example, it is not possible to migrate data such as unstructured files without Atos’ support and knowledge of the IMS3 data-center infrastructure and configuration, because Atos’ support and knowledge is needed to ensure access is made available and legacy identities are matched to new cloud identities;

(iv) a change of supplier to migrate to an interim supplier from Atos and then to the IMS4 supplier would cause significant inconvenience or substantial duplication of costs for the DHSC and the UK Government as a whole. Among the anticipated complications are: costs related to transition periods; exit costs; termination assistance costs; procurement costs; further stranded costs for which DHSC would retain liability; TUPE costs and pension liabilities; costs in recreating data in the event of data loss in migration; and knowledge transfer costs particularly around a number of Atos built assets and other systems which cannot be transitioned safely (either to an interim supplier or a TOM supplier) without a detailed and expensive handover; and
(v) As set out above, DHSC considers the intended further extension to be necessary for both technical and economic reasons; a change of supplier would cause significant inconvenience or substantial duplication of costs for the DHSC and the UK Government as a whole; and the price to be paid during the further 9-month extension will not exceed 50% of the value of the original Contract and therefore this modification is permitted under Regulation 72(1)(b) of the PCR 2015:

CALL FOR COMPETITION SSQ stage 1

Archiving and Records Management Commercial Partnership Agreement for the operation and management of the National Nuclear Archive. Nuclear Decommissioning Authority (NDA), on behalf of NDA Archives Limited (NDAAL), invite interested parties to participate in a market engagement conference call for the requirement of a replacement Commercial Partnership Agreement. The services of the Commercial Partnership Agreement may include but not be limited to: onsite archiving and records management, project services, facilities management (FM) and building management, security and management of the overall programme of works.
Throughout its history, the nuclear industry in the UK has created vast quantities of records. The NDAAL and all the nuclear sites that it owns and manages, continue to do so.
As nuclear decommissioning in the UK is funded by the taxpayer, the vast bulk of these records is owned by the public, which makes them public records and confers on NDA and the organisations in the NDA group an obligation to manage them in accordance with the Public Records Act. The Act includes strict rules for retention and care.
After many years of planning, in 2015 NDA created NDA Archives Ltd whose task it was to collect, inventorise and manage the records of the civil nuclear industry, using a new, purpose-built archive facility: “Nucleus, the Nuclear and Caithness Archives”, located in Wick, Caithness. Its purpose is not only compliance with the Public Records Act, but also to play a leading role in dealing with the technical and logistical challenges faced by NDA.
The Caithness Archive is collocated with the NDA archive in Nucleus.
A “rules and tools” workstream was set up to define the legal and statutory requirements, and to deliver the tools needed to enable compliance. An NDA Records Retention Database has been created, and IMP06 “Managing NDA Information – Requirements” was published. This workstream is part of a wider programme that deals also with digital preservation, intellectual property and copyright issues.
The work of NDAAL has been outsourced under a Commercial Partnership Agreement, with a term of 5 with options to extend for 2 subsequent years.  The scope of the Agreement comprises:
- Operation of “Nucleus” (both the nuclear and the Caithness archives) with a permanent workforce to receive records from organisations in the NDA group, carry out records and archive management tasks, and provide access to NDA records to End Users and the public
- FM and building management
- Security (physical, personnel, information)
- A programme of gathering, sifting, cataloguing, storing and maintaining all inactive records in the NDA estate. Over a quarter of a million boxes of records have been identified for processing.
This procurement project will ensure the continued operation of Nucleus, with an enhanced role for the new Commercial Partner.
The duration of the new contract is likely to be 5 years with options to extend for 2 subsequent years.
Feedback and input are sought from the market to: develop greater understanding on the market and the factors affecting it, understand interest in this opportunity, and affirm the sourcing strategy. Additional information: The NDA shall host an engagement event on 18th April 2023
 9.30am-12.30pm. Via Teams

The event will be via a Microsoft teams conference. Suppliers should nominate no more than two representatives to attend. The presentation from the pre-market day will be uploaded to the ITT alongside the Q & A from the engagement event.
