Background:
Prison Operator Services (also referred to as "Prison Management" in global markets) involves the provision of Operational Custodial Services and Facilities Management of prisons in England and Wales. The Authority has tendered the operation of prisons to the private sector since the early 1990s and has long advocated a shared approach to prison operation that includes a mix of public, voluntary and private sector involvement.
Specifically, a Prison Operator Contract covers delivery of all operational custodial services (including but not limited to education, rehabilitation, training, work, security, resettlement) and FM services (hard and soft) that are required for a prison to hold prisoners securely and maintain the prison to a high standard, while providing transformative services that reduce reoffending. All FM and operational custodial services may be delivered by one supplier, or multiple suppliers may enter partnerships to cover all aspects of delivery.
The Authority established the Prison Operator Services Framework (POSF) Agreement in 2019 and appointed six Framework Operators who demonstrated that they had the capability, strategy and understanding to deliver Prison Operator Services in new and existing prisons in England and Wales. The objective of the procurement for the framework was to test bidders 'ability to deliver value for money through the right blend of quality, innovation in service delivery, and price in any prison competed under the framework. Some of the benefits that have been delivered to date include:
• Demonstrating commitment to a clear pipeline of business opportunity by successfully awarding five (5) Call-Off Contracts on time, including during the pandemic at a time of acute pressure on the estate.
• Enabling the efficient management and delivery of operator competitions for both expiring PFI/Manage& Maintain prison contracts for new build prisons through its streamlined Mini-Competition process, with appointed Framework Operators eligible to compete in further competitions for individual Call-Off Contracts.
• Maximising bidder participation across all competitions by eliminating conflicts (e.g., overlaps in key market activity across competitions) so bidders do not have to choose which prisons to bid for.
The current POSF is due to expire in July 2025, therefore, to build upon these benefits, it is anticipated that another framework is likely to be procured in due course to manage the next phase of a perpetual pipeline of current private prison contracts (as they expire) and new build prisons. The Authority is now experienced in running operator competitions, implementing extensive learning into our future approach and looks forward to engaging with the market to develop and inform our strategy.

The London Borough of Hackney is bringing forward housing development proposals for multiple sites as part of Hackney’s New Homes Programme (NHP). This programme will deliver new homes, non-residential uses, and public realm improvements. All sites are currently in pre-planning stages.
This new programme builds on previous housing development in Hackney that has delivered several projects of high design quality both large and small. Examples include Kings Crescent and Tower Court, both large estate regeneration projects in the north of the borough, and Chowdhury Walk, a development of 11 houses on an infill site in the east of the borough.
The NHP programme comprises fourteen infill sites ranging in size from 9 to 90 homes. The objectives of the programme are to deliver at least 400 new homes, 75% of which will be Council homes for social rent. Three of the sites are being brought forward as mixed tenure developments including private sale as well as affordable housing, and the remaining sites are 100% social rented.
This market engagement exercise seeks early market engagement to determine the optimum delivery route for two townhouse schemes within the programme (Blandford Court &  Nye Bevan).

South Central Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust (SCAS) is managing this procurement and will be the primary Buyer.  The Isle of Wight Ambulance Service (IWAS) is a Service Recipient (as defined in the Mid Tier Terms and Conditions  being used in this procurement).

SCAS is looking for a COTS solution not a development product. For the avoidance of doubt, tenderers must have:-

 an emergency CAD system in operation with a UK ambulance service at
 the point of bidding.

A COTS product ready for use by a UK ambulance service at the point of bidding, and which meets our requirements.

The tender process will be run according to the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 and be governed by selecting the Most Economically Advantageous Tender, balancing the technical capabilities and service offering against the cost of each system.

We wish to complete a successful process which attracts competition in order to achieve value for money for SCAS.

The aim of the procurement is to:

Procure a comprehensive and intuitive system that allows users to easily input and access information and carry out their functions effectively e.g.:

 record patient details

progress the triage pathways of a call

ensure that, where relevant, a resource can be dispatched to the location provided by the caller

and enable effective audits and investigations via a full audit trail and easy-to-access historical information.

Ensure continuing integration with other services and systems provided and used by the Authority e.g.

transfers of callers and records to and from NHS 111

 clinical applications used by front line 999 crews for patient treatment;

Ordnance Survey (OS), Terrafix, Personal Demographic Service (PDS) etc.

Have a supplier who will work with SCAS to deliver the full benefits of the solution, including continuous improvement and investment in the solution for the duration of the contract.

Achieve a managed service and move towards cloud hosting over the lifetime of the contract, in line with the NHS Cloud First policy.

Work towards achieving greater integration between all service line systems in NHS 999, NHS 111 and the non-emergency Patient Transport Service (PTS). Additional information: This Procurement is for five years with an option to extend for a further year.

All the ITT documents can be accessed after on registering on the portal.

Please complete all the hardcopy documents as set out in the tender. These documents must be fully completed and uploaded as part of your tender submission.  Failure to submit all such documents will lead to your bid being deemed  to be non compliant.

Please ensure that you leave sufficient time to upload and submit your tender before the deadline stated in this notice.  Late bids will not be evaluated.
