This is a Provider Selection Regime (PSR) intention to award notice. The awarding of this contract is subject to the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 do not apply to this award. The standstill period begins on the day after the publication of this notice.

This contract has not yet formally been awarded; this notice serves as an intention to award a contract under the competitive process of the PSR.
No conflicts of interest were declared.
The award decision maker is the NHS Sussex Integrated Care Board (ICB).
The service evaluation was reviewed against the 5 key criteria:
The key criteria were weighted as follows: Quality and innovation (37%), Value (20%), Integration, Collaboration and Service Sustainability (10%), Improving access, reducing health inequalities and facilitating choice (25%); Social Value (8%).
Quality & Innovation: This criterion has the heaviest weighting and reflects our commitment to delivering a service of the highest quality. It emphasises the importance of innovation and adaptability in meeting the evolving needs of patients while maintaining excellence in service delivery.
Value: The criterion of "Value" holds significant importance as it underscores the necessity of achieving optimal value for public investment in a pan-Sussex vasectomy service.  It is essential to ensure that resources are utilised efficiently and effectively to deliver sustainable, efficient, and cost-effective services.
Integration, Collaboration, and Service Sustainability: This criterion highlights the critical role of integration and collaboration in enhancing health service delivery. It emphasises the importance of establishing cohesive system partnerships to ensure the sustainability and long-term viability of the service.
Improving Access, Reducing Health Inequalities, and Facilitating Choice: Assigned the second heaviest weighting, this criterion underscores our commitment to promoting equitable access to healthcare services for all patients, across Sussex. It emphasises the importance of addressing health inequalities and enhancing patient choice, ultimately leading to improved health outcomes for all.
Social Value: While weighted the lightest among the criteria, other questions in the tender contained social value aspects. "Social Value" remains a crucial consideration in our evaluation process. It recognises the potential impact of service changes on the local healthcare workforce and their contributions to broader social, economic, and environmental improvements in the community.
These headings were translated into the following subject areas and weightings:
Service Delivery (35%)
Service Quality (25%)
Finance and Activity (20%)
Sustainability (5%)
Public Involvement (5%)
Governance (10%)

The Lancashire and South Cumbria Pathology Service (The Service), as the collaborative pathology service of Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (LTH), East Lancashire Hospitals NHS Trust (ELHT), Blackpool Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (BTH) and University Hospitals Morecambe Bay NHS Foundation Trust (UHMB) are notifying the market of our intention to undertake a competitive dialogue procurement exercise to select a primary managed service provider to supply the services’ Pan Pathology Managed Service.

The Service also gives notification that it intends to undertake market testing prior to the procurement, to assist with scope and future service modelling.

The future contract will be hosted on behalf of the service by Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (LTH).

The future procurement exercise is intended to result in a managed service which provides a flexible, quality and patient focused innovative service in line with best practice ensuring The Service meets the needs of its patients.

The Service is looking to partner with a primary provider to:
• underpin the ambition of The Service as an exemplar Pathology Service now and in the future
• keep pace and evolve with the rapidly changing dynamics of delivering Pathology Services
The procurement exercise is intended to find a provider who will:
• Provide a state-of-the-art solution which can support the requirements today and in the future ensuring there is flexibility to adopt innovative solutions during the term of the contract;
• Provide a solution that meets the quality and speed of testing required by our patients and clinicians and which meets local and national turnaround times;
• Deploy and expand Point of Care testing in hospitals and primary care and self-testing at home;
• Facilitate cross site working and consistent processes to allow flexibility across The Collaborative;
• Support the transformational plans across the trusts, offering the flexibility of solution to support any consolidation of testing between laboratories;

The intended outcome of the procurement exercise is to contract with a Primary Provider who agrees to the contract evolving during its life. This will require on-going assessment, implementation of innovative changes and collaborative working with the provider and potential sub-contractors over the life of the contract. The way the service looks at the end of the contract will likely be very different to the initial implementation.

The Service is using the Health Family Atamis e-tendering portal to conduct the procurement process (the "e-Tendering Portal"). The e-Tendering Portal can be accessed via the link: https://health-family.force.com/s/Welcome . All communications (including submission of Tenders) should be carried out via the e-Tendering Portal. The procurement documents are available for unrestricted full direct access, free of charge via the e-Tendering Portal.

procurementMethodDetails: Negotiated without publication of a contract notice

procurementMethodRationale:
Competition is absent for technical reasons. Therefore, Jisc is clear that the arrangement falls within the protection of exclusive rights, including intellectual property rights, contained within Regulation 32 (2) (b) (ii) of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015, permitting Jisc to enter into the direct award.
- A re-engineering of these integrations would require an investment which would outweigh the value of a replacement service.  Re-engineering would have to take place over an extensive period and could lead to interruptions in service, decreased capacity of staff – through extensive re-training programme, and possible data loss or higher risks to data security.  Undertaking these activities would mean that other core projects for the business such as CRM alignment would also suffer.-

This is currently focussed on, but not limited to, grant funding programmes from the Scottish and UK Governments for low carbon energy solutions, general infrastructure works to make the PSP land zones ready for development and opportunities to accelerate the delivery of innovation space.

title: Edinburgh BioQuarter Health Innovation District: Procurement of a Private Sector Partner

description: The deadline for the SPD submission has been extended to 12pm Friday 7th January 2022 to allow for the Christmas closure of the Contracting Authorities.

label: Time limit

description:
Edinburgh BioQuarter is one of Scotland’s largest health/life sciences innovation locations and a place where new ideas thrive to revolutionise health and wellbeing. It is a renowned destination for first-class clinical delivery, academic expertise and scientific research. It has developed over the past 20 years into one of the UK’s leading life sciences parks.
EBQ3 Ltd has been established by City of Edinburgh Council, Scottish Enterprise, and the University of Edinburgh (together the Contracting Authorities) with the objective to procure a private sector partner to work with them to invest in and accelerate the development of their vision at BioQuarter. The requirement of the private sector partner includes the delivery not only of new buildings, associated infrastructure and public realm on the available land, but also of health innovation services and community impact services, all in line with the “Primary Purpose” as described in the legal Heads of Terms. The private sector partner will be responsible for raising development funding to deliver the vision for BioQuarter. NHS Lothian is not a Contracting Authority for this procurement and is not involved in the procurement exercise.
BioQuarter is a 167-acre site of which 103 acres has been, or is currently anticipated to be, self-developed by the Contracting Authorities and NHS Lothian themselves over the next 25 + years. Such future self-developments conducted by the Contracting Authorities will also be in line with the Primary Purpose. For the avoidance of doubt, the Primary Purpose will not apply to development on land owned by NHS Lothian. It is currently anticipated that the land available as part of this procurement exercise will be in the region of 64-acres of undeveloped land which is owned by Scottish Enterprise (the “PSP land zone”). The anticipated boundary is shown in the Bidders Information Pack. Early development assessments conducted by the Contracting Authorities estimate that there is development capacity in the region of 360,000 square metres gross internal (GIA) area in the PSP land zone.
The vision of the Contracting Authorities is to transition BioQuarter into Edinburgh’s Health Innovation District; a new mixed-use urban neighbourhood of Edinburgh centred on a world leading community of health innovators and to grow BioQuarter into a global destination for pioneering health innovation and enterprise.
Success for the BioQuarter Vision requires the acceleration of development and sufficient level of commercial health innovation accommodation to ensure BioQuarter is a model for commercial health innovation services that will see existing tenants and companies being retained and growing, and new tenants and companies being attracted. The Contracting Authorities aspire to have in the region of 50% of the GIA of development in the PSP land zone as commercial health innovation accommodation to maximise BioQuarter’s strategic objectives for economic growth and community impact and ensure a high level of accommodation is available for commercial health innovation companies and tenants. The Contracting Authorities understand that this ambition needs to be balanced with commercial viability.
Whilst no third-party funding has to date been assured to support the project, the Contracting Authorities are actively pursuing such funding to support the development and bidders will be advised during dialogue. Further details of the opportunity, the proposed contractual arrangements and the procurement process are set out in the supporting documentation available in PCS-T.
The Contracting Authorities are hosting an online bidders event on Tuesday 9th November 2021 from 09.00am to 10.00am GMT.
