description:
The ‘Rapid Manufacture Ventilator Systems (RMVS) programme’ is a workstream within the ventilator challenge progressing novel and modified designs for ventilator devices, manufactured on a rapid basis to ensure sufficient capacity within the NHS.
Cabinet Office, who are running the RMVS programme on behalf of the UK government, engaged with a wide range of suppliers, including designers, manufacturers and component suppliers, to progress a number of ventilator models (by taking forward existing designs through licencing agreements and by developing new products based on existing products and based on new original designs) resulting in the manufacturer of ventilators to meet the identified need.

description:
The ‘Ventilator Challenge’ was created by the UK government and delivered across several government departments (Department of Health and Social Care, Cabinet Office and Ministry of Defence) as part of the drive to increase ventilator supply and support the UK National Health Service (NHS) in its response to the Coronavirus disease global pandemic (Covid-19).
In March 2020, the Prime Minister called on manufacturers to help the UK to step up production of ventilators to support the UK’s response to the virus and save lives. This included working on new or adapted ventilator designs, as well the Government's work to buy ventilators from abroad.
A contract award Notice was published on 25 May 2020 (reference 2020/S 100-243206) covering contracts awarded pursuant to the RMVS programme. This is a second contract award notice that covers contracts awarded thereafter. This notice also updates the expenditure incurred for contracts.
For the Smiths Parapac 300, the original contract value was GBP 34 007 542.00. The contract was awarded for 4 418 ventilators, however these volumes were not achieved in the time frames given, therefore the spend to date is GBP 25 500 000.00 (ex. VAT).
This contract was awarded as a result of the RMVS project.
RMVS CANs
Existing CANs relating to the RMVS project are 2020/S 100-243206, 2020/S 167-406004 and 2021/S 002-003456 (RMVS CANs).
Due to the need to  respond rapidly to the emerging situation, some design work, testing, developing and manufacturing was undertaken before a formalised contract with known costs and outputs was put in place between Cabinet Office and those RMVS suppliers at the time of the RMVS CANs.
Instead Cabinet Office gave commitments to those RMVS suppliers to enable those suppliers to support the RMVS project at significant pace and to mitigate those suppliers operating entirely at risk during extremely turbulent and changing circumstances. The RMVS CANs reflected the estimated values as best known at the time and cost caps within which suppliers were operating.
At the time of the RMVS CANs, in order to be as transparent as possible with the market, information available at the time of entering into those commitments was provided, notwithstanding that it was expected to take several months to settle on the final output and resulting contracts.
The RMVS CANs were therefore published to notify the market of the estimated and maximum limits of the commitments Cabinet Office had entered into to support the RMVS project. Where a supplier appears on more than one RMVS CAN, this reflects an increase to the estimate or cost cap previously notified to the market.
This contract is the Ventilator Challenge: Provision of Rapid Manufacture Ventilator Systems (RMVS) resulting from the support by Smiths Medical International Ltd to the RMVS project and which is the output of Smiths Medical International Ltd appearing on 2020/S 167-406004 of the RMVS CANs.

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

procurementMethodRationale:
The COVID-19 outbreak is a Public Health Emergency of International Concern as declared by the World Health Organisation on 30 January 2020. The WHO Director General characterised COVID-19 as a pandemic on 11 March 2020. The use of ventilator equipment is critical in treating patients with COVID-19 to take over the body’s breathing process when the disease has caused the lungs to fail and allow the patient time to fight off the infection and recover.
In March the NHS across the UK had access to approximately 8,000 ventilators. Modelling based the trajectory of other European countries forecast the need for significant and extremely rapid increase in the UK ventilator capacity. The Prime Minister set the ambition on 16 March 2020 for industry to manufacture as many new ventilators as possible, recognising that coronavirus is the biggest threat this country had seen for decades and that we faced a moment of national emergency. Significant quantities of extra ventilators would be required to treat seriously ill patients during the first wave of infections. Similar shortfalls in ventilator stocks were identified globally. Pressure to increase manufacturing capacity of ventilators was immense, requiring novel designs and new supply chains to be rapidly created to meet that demand. In these circumstances a procurement following the usual timescales under the PCR 2015, including accelerated options, was impossible. Ventilator manufacturers and supply chains were under immediate and unprecedented global pressure to provide products. A delay in engaging with the market by running a usual procurement process ran the risk of failing to acquire the necessary stock of ventilator equipment and presenting a significant risk to life.
Cabinet Office is satisfied the tests permitting use of the Negotiated procedure without prior publication (Regulation 32(2)(c)) are met:
1. As far as is strictly necessary: The Ventilator Challenge was identified as strictly necessary to meet anticipated demand on the NHS during the first wave of cases in the UK.
2. There are genuine reasons for extreme urgency: It is responding to COVID-19 immediately because of public health risks presenting a genuine emergency.
3. The events that have led to the need for extreme urgency were unforeseeable: The Commission itself confirmed: “The current coronavirus crisis presents an extreme and unforeseeable urgency – precisely for such a situation our European rules enable public buyers to buy within a matter of days, even hours, if necessary.” (Commissioner Breton, Internal Market, 01.04.2020).
4. It is impossible to comply with the usual timescales in the PCR: There was no time to run an accelerated procurement under the open, restricted or competitive procedures with negotiation that would allow it to secure delivery of products, particularly in light of the corresponding delays to timelines associated with securing increased manufacturing capacity and component supply within the required timescales.
5. The situation is not attributable to the contracting authority: It has not done anything to cause or contribute to the need for extreme urgency.

title: Ventilator Challenge: Assignment of Intellectual Property Levy, Design Consultancy Work and materials to Develop the Piranvent Ventilator

description:
The ‘Rapid Manufacture Ventilator Systems (RMVS) programme’ is a workstream within the ventilator challenge progressing novel and modified designs for ventilator devices, manufactured on a rapid basis to ensure sufficient capacity within the NHS.
Cabinet Office, who are running the RMVS programme on behalf of the UK government, engaged with a wide range of suppliers, including designers, manufacturers and component suppliers, to progress a number of ventilator models (by taking forward existing designs through licencing agreements and by developing new products based on existing products and based on new original designs) resulting in the manufacturer of ventilators to meet the identified need.

description:
The ‘Ventilator Challenge’ was created by the UK government and delivered across several government departments (Department of Health and Social Care, Cabinet Office and Ministry of Defence) as part of the drive to increase ventilator supply and support the UK National Health Service (NHS) in its response to the Coronavirus disease global pandemic (Covid-19).
In March 2020, the Prime Minister called on manufacturers to help the UK to step up production of ventilators to support the UK’s response to the virus and save lives. This included working on new or adapted ventilator designs, as well the Government's work to buy ventilators from abroad.
A contract award Notice was published on 25 May 2020 (reference 2020/S 100-243206) covering contracts awarded pursuant to the RMVS programme. This is a second contract award notice that covers contracts awarded thereafter.
This contract was awarded as a result of the RMVS project.
RMVS CANs
Existing CANs relating to the RMVS project are 2020/S 100-243206, 2020/S 167-406004 and 2021/S 002-003456 (RMVS CANs).
Due to the need to  respond rapidly to the emerging situation, some design work, testing, developing and manufacturing was undertaken before a formalised contract with known costs and outputs was put in place between Cabinet Office and those RMVS suppliers at the time of the RMVS CANs.
Instead Cabinet Office gave commitments to those RMVS suppliers to enable those suppliers to support the RMVS project at significant pace and to mitigate those suppliers operating entirely at risk during extremely turbulent and changing circumstances. The RMVS CANs reflected the estimated values as best known at the time and cost caps within which suppliers were operating.
At the time of the RMVS CANs, in order to be as transparent as possible with the market, information available at the time of entering into those commitments was provided, notwithstanding that it was expected to take several months to settle on the final output and resulting contracts.
The RMVS CANs were therefore published to notify the market of the estimated and maximum limits of the commitments Cabinet Office had entered into to support the RMVS project. Where a supplier appears on more than one RMVS CAN, this reflects an increase to the estimate or cost cap previously notified to the market.

title: Rapid Manufacture Ventilator System-Direct purchase agreement for Prima ES02 model 10000 Units

description:
The ‘Rapid Manufacture Ventilator Systems (RMVS) programme’ is a workstream within the ventilator challenge progressing novel and modified designs for ventilator devices, manufactured on a rapid basis to ensure sufficient capacity within the NHS.
Cabinet Office, who are running the RMVS programme on behalf of the UK government, engaged with a wide range of suppliers, including designers, manufacturers and component suppliers, to progress a number of ventilator models (by taking forward existing designs through licencing agreements and by developing new products based on existing products and based on new original designs) resulting in the manufacturer of ventilators to meet the identified need.

description:
The ‘Ventilator Challenge’ was created by the UK government and delivered across several government departments (Department of Health and Social Care, Cabinet Office and Ministry of Defence) as part of the drive to increase ventilator supply and support the UK National Health Service (NHS) in its response to the Coronavirus disease global pandemic (Covid-19).
In March 2020, the Prime Minister called on manufacturers to help the UK to step up production of ventilators to support the UK’s response to the virus and save lives. This included working on new or adapted ventilator designs, as well the Government's work to buy ventilators from abroad.
This contract was awarded as a result of the RMVS project.
RMVS CANs
Existing CANs relating to the RMVS project are 2020/S 100-243206, 2020/S 167-406004 and 2021/S 002-003456 (RMVS CANs).
Due to the need to  respond rapidly to the emerging situation, some design work, testing, developing and manufacturing was undertaken before a formalised contract with known costs and outputs was put in place between Cabinet Office and those RMVS suppliers at the time of the RMVS CANs.
Instead Cabinet Office gave commitments to those RMVS suppliers to enable those suppliers to support the RMVS project at significant pace and to mitigate those suppliers operating entirely at risk during extremely turbulent and changing circumstances. The RMVS CANs reflected the estimated values as best known at the time and cost caps within which suppliers were operating.
At the time of the RMVS CANs, in order to be as transparent as possible with the market, information available at the time of entering into those commitments was provided, notwithstanding that it was expected to take several months to settle on the final output and resulting contracts.
The RMVS CANs were therefore published to notify the market of the estimated and maximum limits of the commitments Cabinet Office had entered into to support the RMVS project. Where a supplier appears on more than one RMVS CAN, this reflects an increase to the estimate or cost cap previously notified to the market.
This contract is the Ventilator Challenge: Provision of Rapid Manufacture Ventilator Systems (RMVS) resulting from the support by Penlon Ltd to the RMVS project and which is the output of Penlon Ltd appearing on 2020/S 100-243206 of the RMVS CANs.

This Prior Information Notice (PIN) is part of our Early Market Engagement (EME) process to seek Expressions of Interest (EOI) to provide the services outlined below.
Background:
Transport for London's (TfL) existing SAP ECC 6.0 EHP7 environment has been in place since 2004. Over its lifespan, the system has been customised and extended to provide a range of functionality that underpins our business-critical processes in areas like Payroll, HR, Finance, Procurement and Logistics. In some instances this also covers activities across the Greater London Authority (GLA) and Old Oak and Park Royal Development Corporation (OPDC).
The core ECC6.0 EHP7 system is integrated with more than 60 systems across our estate, including Ariba, Success Factors and Maximo.
As SAP ECC 6.0 EHP7 will no longer receive mainstream support after December 2027, we are planning a programme of ERP transformation to realise a new integrated ERP system, taking the opportunity to standardise and improve business processes and ways of working. The programme will look to exploit new features and functionality to drive efficiency and provide a strong green heartbeat for London. This is part of a wider digital ERP transformation programme across our estate, covering the introduction of SAP Success Factors, SAP Ariba and a modernised workforce management capability that integrates with SAP (system yet to be decided).
Scope:
We are therefore seeking to engage a Programme partner(s) to design, build and operate the new S/4HANA solution and supporting applications.
The Solution scope includes but is not limited to:
•	Moving from SAP ECC6.0 EHP7 to the S/4 HANA application
•	Upgrading the SAP Business Intelligence Warehouse Suite
•	Delivering the technical foundations for integration, front end portal and future developments (e.g. SAP BTP)
•	A workstream focussing on providing a consistent and positive user experience to our fixed and mobile workforce, including mobile device deployment
•	Integration and potential remediation of any impacted systems interfaces and processes including SAP GRC & IAG, SAP Success Factors and SAP Ariba.
The Services Scope includes but is not limited to:
•	Design and Build for S/4HANA: Implementation of a new S/4HANA solution, including services such as: Discovery, Design, Build, Test, Data, Deploy and Change Management
•	Operate for S/4HANA: Ongoing application support and maintenance of the S/4HANA solution following the implementation
•	Operate for other SAP products: Ongoing application support and maintenance of other SAP solutions such as SAP Ariba, SAP SuccessFactors, GRC, IAG and BPC amongst others
•	Operate for ECC: Operational maintenance of TfL's existing SAP ECC6 ERP system from Sept 2025 until go-live of the S/4HANA project
•	Cloud Hosting and Infrastructure: Operational maintenance of TfL's existing and future SAP applications on the Cloud
•	Licensing: Option to procure SAP & other software licenses, if required
The total contract value for the Design and Build stages is estimated to be in the range of £10m to £15m for implementation, with annual recurring charges of approximately £4m to £5m for Operational Maintenance (including hosting).
Potential Suppliers should register their interest in this procurement by sending an email message by no later than 17th March 2023 to:
v_mikemarston@tfl.gov.uk
Your EOI email message should clearly state:
•	Project title: "SAP S/4HANA Programme Partner procurement"
•	Supplier name
•	Contact details
Those interested Suppliers will then be sent a Market Sounding Questionnaire (MSQ) and Prospectus elaborating upon the short description of the Programme accompanied by guidance notes. Responses should be submitted by 21 April 2023.

Description continued from Section II.1.4
During this period, we will host an in-person Supplier Briefing Event on the afternoon of 3rd April 2023 to bring our vision, strategy, plans and approach to life.
This will provide a further overview of the opportunity and approach, allowing Suppliers to ask further questions of us.
Upon receipt of Suppliers' Expressions of Interest we will provide additional information with further instructions on how to participate in the Supplier Briefing Event when we issue our MSQ.
There will be an opportunity for potential Suppliers to submit clarification questions to us prior to the Supplier Briefing Event by emailing them to the above stated email address. We will consider clarification questions as they arise and will issue responses as promptly as possible. Responses to clarification messages will be anonymised and shared with all participating Suppliers.
N.B. The market engagement activity will not be used to formally evaluate Suppliers and any information shared will be used for information purposes only to provide insights and to assist us in preparing for the upcoming procurement. Any information received or discussions held will not contribute to or influence the evaluation of any potential future tender submissions.
Following an assessment of responses received from the MSQ and output from the Supplier Briefing Event, we may hold further market engagement sessions to help us finalise our procurement strategy. Further details and indicative timeframes for any further market engagement will be provided in due course.
Following completion of these exercises, we will then recommend our proposed Route to Market and Procurement Strategy for internal approval prior to launching our formal Invitation To Tender (ITT) procurement project. A more detailed timeline for the formal procurement project will be available after these approvals have been given.
The MSQ and subsequent Supplier Briefing Event do not form part of a formal procurement process and we reserve the right to decide whether to proceed with any tendering procedures in relation to this opportunity. Potential Suppliers shall be solely responsible for any costs incurred participating in any aspect of this EME exercise.
Background and Context
TfL is a world-renowned public transport provider, with a legacy that spans 160 years - today we employ around 27,000 employees in back office, middle office and frontline operations to keep London moving and growing.
The Mayor's Transport Strategy (MTS) sets out the Mayor of London's plans to create a fairer, greener, healthier and more prosperous city, with transport is a cornerstone of this vision. Its reach is broader than just TfL, but we play by far the largest part in delivering it. It outlines how we will change the transport mix across London over the next two decades, providing viable and attractive alternatives to get Londoners out of their cars and opting for cleaner and more active ways to get around our city.
Our Vision (to be a strong, green heartbeat for London) and Values, together with our Roadmaps, effectively form our internal business strategy, focused on how we set ourselves up and act as an organisation. The Roadmaps are the vehicles for achieving the Vision, each featuring the key actions that we take as an organisation to ultimately deliver it and, in turn, support the delivery of the MTS.
We've recently set up the Our TfL Programme (OTP) to help us shape our organisation and deliver our vision. London has changed over the last two years - lifestyles and values are different, when and how customers use our network is shifting, technology is evolving. We need to adapt to meet the expectations of our customers, and our colleagues, and be ready for the challenges we're facing today as well as those we'll face in the future.
We need to become an even more sustainable, more affordable, more inclusive organisation that makes it easier for all of us to do our jobs and make TfL a better, more fulfilling place for colleagues. We've got to make crucial savings, bring our costs down and increase revenue to secure our future and financial sustainability.
OTP isn't just about structure - it's about building a better culture - living our values, using new technology and processes, and changing the ways we work to adapt to the changed world we live in. This is where our Enterprise Resource Planning programme fits in - ERP is a key enabler of OTP, by modernising our processes and systems so that getting things done in TfL will be easier, simpler and better for our people.
Our current SAP ECC6.0 ERP system will be out of mainstream support from SAP by end December 2027. The current third-party SAP Application Support and Maintenance contract comes to an end in September 2025 (and we will look at a variety of options subject to re-tender and welcome the views of interested Suppliers in this regard).
We have already made the decision to move from SAP ECC 6.0 to SAP S/4HANA and in preparation for that have completed an infrastructure improvement programme which migrated SAP to the HANA database run on the Amazon Public Cloud with database administration and SAP Basis Activities managed by another third-party (not the same partner as Application Support & Maintenance).
We intend to move to S/4HANA at least 12 months prior to the support end date in 2027 to maintain business continuity without undue risk and deliver people, process and other technology benefits as early as possible.
We are seeking to get back to 'SAP standard' out of the box standard technology enabled processes as much as possible therefore eliminating, or significantly reducing, complex manual processes. This means we want to change the way we work promoting more self-service through digital technology, more efficient process workflows, better integrated systems to 'join the dots', give our people a better, more engaging, user experience and deliver the right information and reports people trust and use 'on-system' as opposed to extracting 'off system' into spreadsheets or other 'unmanaged silos'.
Technology is a major aspect of the S/4HANA Programme and data and architecture designs proposed by Suppliers must ensure operational continuity and supportability and embrace areas for cost efficiency such as applications rationalisation. However, technology delivers the tools to enable a change in behaviour but that alone will not suffice. End user adoption and changing behaviour will require process re-engineering and challenging the status quo. We welcome Supplier ideas and input through the MSQ exercise about how to deliver the end user change management alongside the technology changes.
Our main procurement requirement is to engage a Programme partner(s) to implement the SAP S/4HANA Programme. Through this, the Programme partner will support the associated changes to processes and ways of working which both influence and support any changes to our Target Operating Model.
It is anticipated that the contract for the Design and Build stages would be for an initial 24-36 months subject to the scope (with options to extend). The Operate contract would be for a much longer contract term of up to a maximum of 10 years. At this stage we are still considering how a contract, or contracts, might be split between Design, Build & Operate. The issuing of this PIN and the subsequent early market engagement process will help us determine the most appropriate approach to awarding and managing the contract.
Indicators
•	This is a one-off contract (no recurrence)
•	Renewals are available.
Additional information
This Prior Information Notice (PIN) is issued solely for the purpose of conducting an Early Market Engagement (EME) exercise and does not constitute any commitment by TfL to undertake any public procurement exercise in the future.
TfL is committed to ensuring fairness, openness and transparency and to following Public Contract Regulations. TfL will manage this EME exercise in a fair, open and transparent manner to realise maximum benefit without disadvantaging any Supplier.
Participation or non-participation in this EME exercise, including the MSQ, will not disadvantage or advantage any Supplier's ability to participate in any future procurement activity, including, in particular, any subsequent procurement process undertaken to deliver the project.
Direct or indirect canvassing of any TfL employee or agent by any Supplier concerning this requirement, or any attempt to procure information from any TfL employee or agent concerning this PIN outside of the formal process described in this document may result in the Supplier being disqualified from participation in any future TfL procurement activity.
TfL will not be entering into any contract based solely on the responses to this PIN and no information contained in this document or in any communication made between TfL and any Supplier in connection with this Procurement exercise shall be relied upon as constituting a contract, agreement, or representation that any contract shall be offered in accordance with this PIN.
TfL is not liable for any costs, fees or expenses incurred by any party participating in this market engagement exercise. TfL cannot guarantee it will incorporate all or any feedback received into any subsequent procurement documentation.
This PIN is for services likely to be procured - it is expected to assist TfL with developing aspects of its procurement strategy.
