description: 2.1 The Covered Market ("the Market") has been at the heart of Oxford’s city centre since its foundation in 1774. It has always been in public ownership, with Oxford City Council ("the Council") the freeholder and operator since the start of the 20th century. Its significance spans heritage, culture, and commerce, as one of only a handful of 18th century covered markets in England which has been continuously trading (bar any enforced pandemic closures). The Market will be celebrating its 250th Anniversary in 2024. 2.2	In 2020, the Council procured a multidisciplinary team to deliver a ‘heritage led masterplan and outline business case’. This was led by Gort Scott Architects, supported by a team including Marcus Beale Architects (heritage experts), Max Fordham (environmental engineers), HRW (structural engineers), Stockdale (quantity surveyors), Caneparo (transport consultants) and Transition by Design (local engagement experts). Separately, advice on the outline business case was provided by Inner Circle Consulting, and GCW provided commercial agent advice relating to income assumptions. The masterplan was completed in December 2022. A copy of the masterplan is attached as Appendix A. 2.3	In February 2023 Oxford City Council Cabinet approved the heritage-led masterplan and its recommended programme of works to improve the business environment, ensure the Market remains fit-for-purpose into the future and continues to provide a unique experience for residents and visitors alike alongside providing a financial return to the Council. A copy of the Cabinet Report (excl’ Appendices) is attached as Appendix B. 2.4	The Cabinet decision approved the budget to deliver the masterplan including all consultant and management fees construction and essential planned maintenance works. 2.5	In 2023, the council undertook further investigative works including more detailed services and infrastructure investigations. These are detailed in the Feasibility Report for the Proposed Utility Services Replacement completed by Ridge consultants July 2023 at Appendix C. 2.6	The services report has highlighted the extent of the essential services replacement works and this will need to be considered when undertaking the detailed design of the masterplan. 2.7	A key milestone will therefore be to review and revise the current masterplan and essential works programme. The options are to include:a.	Delivery of the current masterplan including an updated review of the M&E scope of worksb.	M&E work onlyc.	M&E plus masterplan with further capital investment.The preferred option will be informed and supported by a revised business case by Oxford City Council to enable delivery of the proposals. 2.8	The proposed tender will seek to commission a design led consultant team for RIBA Stages 2-7 subject to stage approval. Key milestones will be identified at each stage e.g. outline business case and project board approvals. Works will be subject to approval before subsequent stages can commence. A separate tender will be issued for appointment of a project manager led consultancy team. 2.9	It is anticipated that the design team will comprise (but not be restricted to):•	Architect – team lead•	Planning •	Heritage & Archaeology•	Structural Engineer•	Services Engineer•	Fire Engineering•	Sustainability•	Transport•	Accessibility2.10	Stakeholder engagement will be managed by the Council with additional engagement subject to a separate appointment if required. Commercial agent advice will also be commissioned separately if required.Please contact the council for a full list of the consultant services required.

Sovereignty of the cash tariff is to remain with Little Heath School for the duration of this contract. The School year is based on a calendar of 195 days.

The School believes that success should be celebrated and that pupils should enjoy their time at school; if lessons are stimulating and challenging then students will love learning.

As a school which is continually seeking ways to improve and develop the ethos and environment for students and staff, to give them the facilities they deserve and need to meet the challenges of the 21st Century, any consideration regarding inward capital investment as part of the Contractor’s tender submission would be welcomed.

The decision to award this contract in line with the Competitive Process was based on evaluation against the basic selection criteria (in the form of a Selection Questionnaire), which was assessed on a pass/fail basis, and the PSR 5 key criteria, which were assessed on a 0-4 scale, with the below weightings.
Several tender questions were asked under each of the key criteria.

title: Lot 1 Virtual Cohort Based Learning Solution

description: There will be an initial term of 2 years, with a further possible extension of 12 months

description:
The cohort programme will only be aimed at team leaders.
a)	Who are new to the role (3-9 months) and have been internally promoted or externally hired with first time team leader responsibilities
b)	New to role (3-9 months) and have been externally hired with current/previous team leader experience from another organisation.
All learners will have direct reports. Places will be made available to longer serving colleagues where specific development needs have been identified.
All colleagues on a cohort programme will explore Leading Self, Leading Others and Leading at the BBC. They will be automatically be enrolled in a minimum of 3-4 skill builders listed in Lot 2 to support their knowledge and complement the self-development and discovery provided by the programme in Lot 1.
It is anticipated that there will be a maximum need for 360 colleagues to be enrolled in the programme in the first two years. However, this number is an estimate based on current need and subject to change if there is a need for a change of strategic focus which leads to an increase in participation.

title: Lot 2 - Provision of Skill Building Workshops

As part of our Digital First approach, learning needs for leadership skills for team leaders are offered first through our online Digital Leadership Pathways relevant to the role. The pathways are described in the Appendix.
a)	Leading Self
b)	Leading Others
c)	Leading at the BBC
 In addition to digital pathways, we have identified the need to offer the option of virtual learning experiences that focus on core capabilities, at the point of need. The BBC are open to the digital delivery format but content should be experienced as part of a group and allow participants to share experience, build skills and test ideas.

The Skills Builders will complement and add value to our existing digital pathways. Access to these virtual learning Interventions will be prioritised and based on need and available resources. Depending on learning needs identified, leaders may access one or more of the Skills Builders interventions.
The topics below reflect examples of skill builders required by team leaders at the BBC. There may be a need to develop additional content over the period of the contract.
a)	Emotional intelligence
b)	Wellbeing and Resilience
c)	Prioritisation and decision-making
d)	Goal Setting, Delegation and Accountability
e)	Empowering others through everyday feedback and coaching conversations
f)	Difficult conversations

To respond to current and future challenges, the BBC Leadership Development team has designed a learning approach for BBC leaders and managers, based on consistent expectations and informed by a learning needs analysis.
We have developed dedicated self-directed digital learning pathways for BBC leaders at three levels, the pathways set out what a leader needs to know, to do and to be effective in their role and they bring   together in the learning design relevant policies and processes at the right moment for the right learning outcome.
This will be the third new facilitated leadership development programme to launch at the BBC. Development programmes have already been procured for Senior Leaders (Enterprise Unleashed) and Organisational Leaders ( Enterprise Connected).
This requirement will be split into 2 Lots. These are as follows:
Lot 1 - A Virtual cohort-based learning solution which focuses on shifting mindsets towards responsibilities as a leader. There will be a sole supplier for this Lot.
Lot 2 - Skills builders – Virtually delivered, skills-based learning interventions based on learning needs, underpinned by our values. There will be a maximum of 4 suppliers appointed to this Lot.

title: Repair, Void Planned Maintenance (TBC)

description: Contract for each lot will be for an initial 5 years with option to extend for a further 5 years subject to availability of funding and satisfactory performance.

description:
Interested tenderers are required to provide response to the below questions and submit via email to LBBtender@arkconsultancy.co.uk  as part of the councils on-going soft market testing. The deadline to submit your response is 5pm Monday 12th February 2024.
Question 1: Can you confirm that you would in principle be willing to utilise the Subcontractor Framework in the first instance for your supply chain requirements. What risks and considerations do you identify from
a)	Using the Brent Supply Chain for all your subcontract work including responsive & void repairs in a Price Per Property (PPP)/ Price Per Void (PPV) context
b)	Using the Brent Supply Chain for Exclusions to the PPP/PPV and Planned Works only
c)	Any specific suggestions on how to ensure that the Subcontractor Framework works better for all
in relation to:
•	Pricing each workstream
•	Onboarding processes
•	Calling off the subcontractors
•	Managing performance
•	Any other areas
Question 2: What works do you typically self-deliver through your own directly employed workforce and which do you normally subcontract?
Question 3: We are proposing a Price Per Property (PPP) and Price Per Void (PPV) model with set Exclusions which would be payable on schedules of rates. For planned works we are considering a Cost Plus model, with tendered Preliminaries, Overheads and Profit.
Do you have any views or advice on how the commercial model should be structured to get the best value for money responses from the market, given your experience of working with similar organisations? This should include:
•	how this would relate to the use of the Subcontractor Framework, and how this could operate with both the fixed cost and variable cost/ Exclusion elements.
•	Typical items that may be Exclusions from PPP and PPV
•	Separation of Preliminary Costs from PPV
Question 4: Is there a minimum annual contract value that you would be interested in? And what is your view of the optimum contact size/value, given the size/nature of the Council’s housing stock? Do you have any thoughts on the split by geographical area and workstream?
Question 5: What would be the minimum and optimal contract length for a contract of this type? Would the inclusion of a no-fault break with sufficient notice clause at any point influence your decision to bid and/or your pricing structure for the contract?
Question 6: We are proposing to use the JCT Measured Term Contract. To what extent do you think this would provide an appropriate form of contract? Do you have any views/advice on how to use this form of contract to best effect?
Question 7: What steps would you like to see taken to minimise risk (and risk pricing) to achieve an equitable contractual relationship?
Question 8: Do you have any other suggestions on how we should shape the requirement? Is there any ‘good practice’ or any recent positive experience of tender opportunities that you are able to share so that we can try to make sure our procurement process delivers the best results/experience for the Council and its customers and for bidders?

title: CONTRACTS FOR RESPONSIVE, VOID AND PLANNED MAINTENANCE- INITIAL MARKET ENGAGEMENT

description:
Brent Council manages circa 9,000 rented homes and 4,000 leased homes across the Borough. It currently delivers its responsive repairs, voids and planned maintenance through a single Borough-wide contract which has been in place since 2014 and which is currently due to expire at the end of September 2024.
New arrangements will therefore need to be procured. Brent wishes to use the new contracts to drive excellence in customer service and the quality of homes and is considering the following approach:
•	Separation of the stock into two geographical contract areas
•	Within each area, separate contracts for:
•	Responsive repairs
•	Void repairs
•	Planned maintenance (internal component replacements such as kitchens and bathrooms, internal communal works, external planned works, major projects including tower block refurbishment, electrical safety and fire safety works)
The estimated annual value of the works in total across both areas and all workstreams (responsive, voids and planned) is likely to be initially circa £10 - £15million, potentially rising to circa £20 to £25million. It should be noted that this will be lower in the first 2-3 years of the contract as the planned programme includes major refurbishment works that have already been procured separately.
Brent is considering requiring bidders to bid for all 3 elements of work within each geographical area, however separate contracts would be issued for each workstream. Bidders will still be able to submit tenders for both areas however Brent may not award more than one geographical area to a single contractor (the Invitation to Tender will set out the process). Successful bidders may be awarded one or more lots based on the most economically advantageous tender for each lot.
In addition, Brent is undertaking a separate procurement for a Subcontractors Framework, which it is intended will encourage participation of local SMEs and will provide an available local supply chain with sustainable rates and prompt payment requirements. This will be in place for the start of this main Responsive, Void and Planned Maintenance contracts although not prior to the procurement process. The successful contractors will be expected to use the councils Subcontractor (local supplier)  framework for their supply chain requirements.
Brent is keen to understand the level of interest from contractors in bidding for these proposed Contracts for responsive repairs, voids and planned maintenance and to shape the offer to secure maximum interest from the market. As a result, the council is proposing to have a market engagement event on the 14th of February 2024 via teams (Details of the teams invite will be sent on a later date). Please send your contact details including email details for the teams invite to LBBtender@arkconsultancy.co.uk confirming your interest in attending this engagement.
We would be grateful if you would provide response to questions in section II.2.4 (Description of the procurement) and your responses submitted via email to LBBtender@arkconsultancy.co.uk no later than 5pm on Monday 12th February 2024. All queries regarding this notice to go to same email address. Your response should include how you would work with the proposed Subcontractor Framework, setting out your requirements and general principles

NHS England has previously exercised its right to extend the Current Framework to 31st March 2025 and recently undertook a new procurement for the award of new framework agreements to commence from 1st April 2025 (the “New Framework”) for the supply of the same/similar products. The awarded value of the Current Framework was £1.2bn.
However, there are four suppliers – LFB Biomedicaments (Lots  2 and 6), CSL Behring Ltd (Lots 2, 3, 6 and 7), Bio Products Laboratory (Lot 2, 3, 6 and 7), and Grifols UK Ltd (Lots 1 and 5) - on the Current Framework who have either (i) not been awarded a place on the New Framework or (ii) have been awarded a place on the New Framework as a reserve supplier and therefore have no committed volumes or guarantee of supply (the “Absent Suppliers”) in respect of the products that they currently supply under the Current Framework (the “Absent Products”). Some patients are reliant upon Absent Products and will require switching to products supplied by suppliers awarded guaranteed supplies on the New Framework (the “New Products”). Changing a patient from Absent Products to a New Product needs to be appropriately managed. The scale of changes required to patient treatment resulting from the new procurement are higher than expected and cannot be completed prior to the commencement of the New Framework. In order to safely switch patients, more time will be required than could have been foreseen. This switching process will be undertaken over a period of time as is clinically appropriate considering patients’ needs and clinical resources. In order to ensure continuity of supply of medicines from current suppliers during the transition period, NHS England will extend the Current Framework for IVIg products by 6 months and for SCIg products by 9 months.
In order to secure continued routine access to Absent Products for a period of time to allow the safe switching of products, NHS England were required to extend the duration of the Current Framework with those Absent Suppliers in respect of the Absent Products for a period of time.
NHS England have exercised their contractual right to extend the Current Framework with the Absent Suppliers for a further 3-months to 30th June 2025 and therefore NHS England are not required to rely on regulation 72 of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 to extend for that period of time. The value of supply of products during this extended period is estimated to be c.£34,056,162.
However, a further period of time beyond that contractually entitled period was also required. As such, NHS England were required to modify the Current Framework with the Absent Suppliers so as to extend the Current Framework for those Absent Products for a further period of (i) 3-months for IVIg products  (Lots 1, 2, 5 and 6) (so to 30th September 2025) and (ii) 6-months for SCIg products (Lots 3 and 7)  (so to 31st December 2025) (the “Duration Modification”).
The awarded value of the Current Framework was £1.2bn. The Duration Modification will increase the framework value by c.£15,036,879 which is within the allowed 50% threshold.

Value Modification

Additionally, NHS England is required to increase the estimated value of the Current Framework. The estimated awarded value of the Current Framework was £1.2bn. NHS England estimates that the total requirement for purchase of products across the lifetime of the Current Framework up to the expiry of the Current Framework on 31st March 2025 will now be an increased figure of £1.6bn and are therefore increasing the estimated value from £1.2bn to £1.6bn (an increase of 33%)  (the “Value Modification”). This increase in value is due to a combination of (i) an increase in demand for products and (ii) increase in pricing of the products as a result of inflation and increase in Voluntary Pricing and Access Scheme (“VPAS”) rebate scheme. This also includes the value of the Duration Modification.

VII.2.2.2 Description of reason -
Duration Modification

The requirement to extend for that additional period of time has become necessary and is permitted by Regulation 72(1)(b) and or (c) of The Public Contacts Regulations 2015. Namely, the following conditions have been fulfilled: (i) additional supplies of products by the original contractors (i.e. the Absent Suppliers) have become necessary so as to secure continuity of products to allow the transition of patients to products on the New Framework and were not included in the initial procurement (ii) a change of contractor cannot be made for technical reasons of interchangeability with existing supplies as those patients will require switching between products over a period of time under supervision of clinicians and/or would cause significant inconvenience (iii) the increase in price of the modification does not exceed 50% of the original contract value.
Additionally or alternatively (i) the need for modification has been brought about by circumstances which a diligent contracting authority could not have foreseen (ii) the modification does not alter the overall nature of the contract as it continues to be a framework agreement for supply of the same/similar products and (iii) the increase in price of the modification does not exceed 50% of the original contract value.

Value Modification

The Value Modification has become necessary and is permitted by Regulation 72(1)(b), (c) and/or (e) of the Public Contacts Regulations 2015. Namely, the following conditions have been fulfilled: (i) additional supplies of products by the original contractors (i.e. all of those suppliers appointed on the Current Framework) have become necessary so as to secure continuity of products and were not included in the initial procurement (ii) a change of contractor cannot be made for technical reasons of interchangeability with existing supplies as patients require continuity of supply of the products on the Current Framework until the expiry of the Current Framework and commencement of the New Framework (where save for the Absent Suppliers the majority of the suppliers on the Current Framework are also appointed to the New Framework) (iii) the increase in price of the modification does not exceed 50% of the original contract value.
Additionally or alternatively (i) the need for modification has been brought about by circumstances which a diligent contracting authority could not have foreseen (ii) the modification does not alter the overall nature of the contract as it continues to be a framework agreement for supply of the same/similar products and (iii) the increase in price of the modification does not exceed 50% of the original contract value.
Finally, the Value Modification is not substantial (as set out in regulation 72(8)) and therefore is permissible pursuant to regulation 72(1)(e).


description:
The London Borough of Bromley (the Council) is seeking to commission one or more innovative solutions to deliver specialist children’s residential provision, which may include a partnership arrangement or capital investment.
To summarise, the objectives of this provision are as follows:
•	Reduce the overall spend on placement costs. We aim to reduce weekly placement costs for a therapeutic residential by a minimum of £1,500 - £2,000 per week per child.
•	Having a provision which is identified for the exclusive use of Bromley, will improve care planning for children and young people ensuring the young people are provided with safe and secure placements when they are most in need.
•	Children and young people will benefit from the continuity of services including education, health, and children’s social care support.
•	There will be a significant reduction in staff and family travel costs and time.
As such, we are seeking an experienced provider of specialist therapeutic residential care for young people, to co-design the provision in line with the needs of the local authority, resulting in exclusive use of any provision for a set term at preferential rates. The provision(s) must have a minimum of three beds and be run independently of the Council. To account for the specific needs of different categories of users, including disadvantaged and vulnerable groups, the Council requires that the proposed provision(s) are within the London Borough of Bromley or neighbouring borough/counties.
Subsequently, for consideration of this project, we are seeking Expressions of Interest from providers that can satisfy the Mandatory Criteria below.
1	The provider must be able to deliver specialist therapeutic residential care for young people between the ages of 10-18 (or slightly under 10 years old in exceptional circumstances)
2	The interested party must be seeking to develop residential provision in Bromley or within an immediate neighbouring/ bordering local authority to Bromley.
3	The provider must co-design the provision with the Council in line with the needs of the Council and offer exclusive use of any resulting provision for a set term at preferential rates. The provider should however provide some initial outline plans which will form the foundation of any co-design.
4	The provider must have at least 5 years of experience in delivering care for young people and / or working with complex, high risk and vulnerable young people at a home with a ‘good’ or ‘outstanding’ OFSTED rating.
5	The provider will have or develop residential provision which they will run independently of the Council. Staffing and regulatory obligations will remain the responsibility of the provider.
6	The provider must be able to demonstrate a sufficient financial standing to assure the Council that it will see a return on any investment.
The first step of the procurement process is a formal Call for Competition via a Prior Information Notice (PIN). This Call for Competition, made in compliance with the Public Contracts Regulations (2015), will inform the Council’s procurement strategy and business case(s). We anticipate that the subsequent procurement process will follow the Light Touch Regime of the Regulations.
Please see the documentation on the Proactis Portal for more information on this opportunity and how to register your interest.
