description: The award of a contract by Education Authority Northern Ireland (EANI) without prior publication of a call for competition in the Official Journal of the European Union, in respect of the provision of Dishwashers, Blast Chillers and Toasters for EANI CAT 11039 as further described in OJEU Contract Notice.

description: Catering equipment

procurementMethod: limited

mainProcurementCategory: goods

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

procurementMethodRationale:
Modification to the Call-Off Contract from National Framework for Light and Heavy Catering Equipment (CAT 11039 TU) is necessary to ensuring ongoing service provision and to facilitate the procurement of additional requirements until the commencement of a new arrangement is in place.
These requirements have become necessary and are permitted by Regulation 72(1)(c) of The Public Contacts Regulations 2015. Namely, the following conditions have been fulfilled:
(i)the need for modification has been brought about by circumstances which a diligent contracting authority could not have foreseen;
The Education Authority set up CAT-23-001 Dynamic Purchasing System for Catering Equipment which went live in May 23 with the original intention of running further competitions from the DPS. Further Competition CAT-23-001-008 Commercial Dishwashers and Tabling was issued to the market on 17 November 2024 and closed on 8 December 2024. During the evaluation process it became apparent that the specification contained ambiguity. On consideration of the duty to ensure fairness and equal treatment within the tender process, EA stood down the Further Competition on 12 March 2024.
The Education Authority currently intends to review it’s specifications for this equipment in order to re-open competition to the market. It is envisaged that this process may take up to six months, and therefore, the EA intend to extend it’s current arrangements for six months, with the options to extend by two further periods of three months if deemed necessary to enable a new procurement to be concluded. This will help to ensure service continuity for the Catering Service whilst EA considers its requirements and next steps.
(ii)the modification does not alter the overall nature of the contract;
The nature of the arrangement is not being amended.
(iii)any increase in price does not exceed 50% of the value of the original contract or framework agreement.
The upper estimate of the original Call Off Contract was £881,000 GBP, this modification is for £440,000 which is less than 50% of the original maximum value. This does not exceed 50% of the value of the Call-Off Contract.

rationale:
Need for modification brought about by circumstances which a diligent contracting authority/entity could not foresee: The Education Authority currently intends to review it’s specifications for this equipment in order to re-open competition to the market. It
is envisaged that this process may take up to six months, and therefore, the EA have extended it’s current arrangements (subsequent to the aforementioned VEAT notice) for six months, with the options to extend by two further periods of three months if deemed necessary to enable a new procurement to be concluded.
This will help to ensure service continuity for the Catering Service whilst EA considers its requirements and next steps.
(ii)the modification does not alter the overall nature of the contract; the nature of the arrangement is not being amended.
(iii)any increase in price does not exceed 50% of the value of the original contract or framework agreement.
The upper estimate of the original Call Off Contract was £881,000 GBP, this modification is for £440,000 which is less than 50% of the

All Age Integrated Substance Misuse Treatment and Recovery Service. Additional information: Description of the contract modification as per Schedule 12 of The Regulations:
1.  The contract title: Integrated All Age Substance Misuse Treatment and Recovery
Service
 and reference: DN659787.
2.  A description of the relevant health care services to which the contract relates:
Integrated All Age Substance Misuse Treatment and Recovery services for adults and young people with problematic substance use for Dorset Council residents.
including the most relevant CPV code: 85323000-9.
3.  The effective date of the modification: 1st April 2024.
4.  A brief description of the modification:
The tender for the All Age Integrated Substance Misuse Service was published in April 2023. At this point commissioners were only able to include known grant funding in the finance schedule. The continuation of grant funding for the services was only confirmed late 2023/early 2024 after the contract had been awarded. However as it was highly likely the funding would be continued, commissioners ensured the contract provided for the inclusion of ongoing grant funding in the service specification as follows:
• Rough Sleepers Drug and Alcohol Programme (RSDATG -OHID grant)
• Safeguarding Families Together (SFT - DC Children Services)
• Criminal Justice Service (Office of Police and Crime Commissioner)
• Expectation to work with migrant communities, asylum seekers, and refugees (Dorset
Council)
The announcement of grant awards are outside of the commissioner's control and the variation to include these services and funding amounts will not render the contract materially different.
5.  Any change in the lifetime value of the contract:
The proposed modification will add £503,506 to the value of the contract.
Original total contract value: £22,955,401.87.
Updated total contract value: £23,458,907.87.
6.  Any change in the term length of the contract: No change.
7.  Details of the decision-makers: Head of Legal Services and Service Manager Commercial & Procurement.
8.  Any declared conflicts or potential conflicts of interest: None declared.
9.  Information as to how any conflicts or potential conflicts of interest were managed: Not applicable as none declared.

This VEAT notice is being applied in accordance with The Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023 (the "Regulations") under Regulation 13 in the absence of new notice suites yet to be released.
The tender for the All Age Integrated Substance Misuse Service was published in April 2023. At this point commissioners were only able to include known grant funding in the finance schedule. The continuation of grant funding for the services was only confirmed late 2023/early 2024 after the contract had been awarded. However as it was highly likely the funding would be continued, commissioners ensured the contract provided for the inclusion of ongoing grant funding in the service specification as follows:

• Safeguarding Families Together (SFT - DC Children Services)
• Criminal Justice Service (Office of Police and Crime Commissioner)
• Expectation to work with migrant communities, asylum seekers, and refugees (Dorset Council)
The announcement of grant awards are outside of the commissioner's control and the variation to include these services and funding amounts will not render the contract materially different.
The grant funding is specifically for the services commissioned from the provider under the existing contract so it is appropriate for the funding to be added to the value of the existing contract.
The total value of the modification for 24/25 is £512,163.
The requested modification is lawful under PSR Reg 13(1)(d). This ground applies as the contract was awarded under PCR15 and is not a direct award.
In accordance with PSR Reg 13(1)(d), the modification is made at the discretion of the Council and it does not render the contract materially different in character. The modification is to add new funding for existing services provided under the contract.
Furthermore, the change in the value of the contract is under 25% of the value when it was entered into.
Under Reg 13(4), where a modification is made to a contract without procurement, and that modification is attributable to a decision of the Council and the change in value is over £500,000 a notice of the modification must be published.

The Animal and Plant Health Agency (APHA) requires the collection / sampling of dead wild birds that are deemed to be of surveillance value, and delivery of the wild bird carcases to designated APHA Veterinary Investigation Centre (VIC) or Scotland Rural College Disease Surveillance Centre (SRUCDSC) sites for testing.

APHA also requires the provision of unique wild bird carcase/sample identification numbers which will be held on a Central Spreadsheet.

Collection of specified small mammalian carcases will also be required, particularly if mortalities are linked epidemiologically to an AI outbreak in wild birds.

The Contractor will be required to have a network of personnel to act as Collectors across mainland Great Britain (GB) to ensure maximum efficiency in the Contractor’s timely ability to collect carcases upon request from the Authority. As a minimum this shall mean that the Contractor can collect and deliver any carcase across mainland GB within forty-eight (48) hours of the Authority’s request (i.e., for a Collector to travel from their point of origin to the location of the carcase(s) and then either to an APHAVIC or SRUCDSC, and/or a return journey).

While this Contract primarily covers collections from mainland GB, Services from GB islands (excluding Crown Dependencies) may be requested. If this situation occurs the Contractor would be expected to provide a quotation and estimated timescale or the collection. The APHA Veterinary Lead in Avian Virology would then advise if the collection should go ahead.

Note that the value shown on this notice is very approximate and covers the full potential 5-year contract period (01/09/2024 to 31/08/2027 with up to 24 months extension allowable).

This contract Award has been made following direct award process A of the Provider Selection Regime.

These contracts are awarded to an existing group of providers. Although we would not restrict the number of providers who deliver these LCS services provided they meet the contract and specification criteria, the primary reason that these services can only be delivered by this group of providers (GP) is because they are required to hold a contract via the GP Framework and deliver the LCS alongside these services; the LCS is designed to enhance the GP Framework contract and not stand alone, therefore, interdependency between the two services is paramount.

The provider is paid on an activity basis based on local prices. The contract will be from 01/04/2024 to 31/03/2025

description: Miscellaneous services

procurementMethodRationale:
This provision sits under the Light Touch Regime  under Section 7 of the PCRs, however the proposed value for the 3 year contract falls just above the threshold.
Regulation 32 is being used to award the proposed contract without competition where the services can be supplied by only a particular supplier due to technical reasons i.e. that A2Dominion own the building  "Matilda House" and have exclusive rights at their property.
The building Matilda House is a unique development that provides the opportunity to accommodate and provide support for a range of different support needs. The layout provides flexibility to adapt and meet the needs of individuals as need change over time.
A2Dominion owns this building. They are also commissioned by the Council to deliver the support from this building at present under an existing contract which is due to end in August 2024.
A2Dominion have stated that they would not allow another provider to deliver support from this building, should we go to open tender and another organisation be the successful bidder.
The other possibility is that we the Council  go out to competitive tender for a support provision to be delivered from another, similar building. It would then be up to prospective providers to find such a building in the city, from which they could deliver the service from 1st September 2024.
Based on recent exercises where Council officers conducted extensive searches for similar buildings, we do not believe that there are currently any buildings in the city that could host the service that is needed.
Throughout 2023, the Rough Sleeping team have worked with internal and external colleagues to find a building to deliver 20+ self-contained rooms to provide accommodation for persons experiencing rough sleeping.
Working with colleagues in the Council's Property team to examine the Council's property portfolio, alongside the County Council's and other public services like the NHS, as well as St Mungo's regional property lead seeking suitable property, all efforts have been fruitless. Where any buildings have been found that could potentially be made suitable (such as old office buildings), potential capital investment would be needed in order to redevelop these to provide good quality and adaptable accommodation similar to that provided at Matilda House.
Furthermore, during the process of seeking a smaller building to redevelop into a ~12 unit 24 hours supported accommodation provision in the city, that we would have been able to bid for capital funding for, this search exercise was also fruitless.
Council Officers therefore believe that a service provider wishing to provide a support service, and potentially bidding for a support contract under an open tender, would not be able to find a suitable property in the city to provide this support from.
Therefore, Council officers are seeking a direct award under the procurement rules on the grounds that there is only one provider that is able to deliver the support provision we are after, from the only suitable building that is available to meet the needs from 1st September and onwards.

description:
For the provision of supervision of clinical leads for Psychologically Informed Planned Environments (PIPEs) Supervision of clinical leads is undertaken by a group analyst who is experienced working with personality disorder, staff teams and organisational dynamics; they come together once a month for monthly group supervision and bi-monthly for individual supervision.
The participants of the supervision are PIPE Clinical Leads and  PIPE Operational Leads (separate groups)  working across prisons and probation in the delivery of PIPE services. The Clinical Leads are typically a mix of Registered Psychologists and Psychotherapists. The supervision processes are designed to support the ongoing delivery and growth of PIPE services and the PIPE model nationally, to promote the understanding of the 'therapeutic environment' approach, and to promote the role of group analytic thinking within this process. Additional information: The decision makers for this award are:
Lucinda Bolger:  National Clinical Development Lead (NHS) for PIPEs
Kerry Joy:  Deputy National Clinical Lead (NHS) for PIPEs
Paul Walker: Environments Lead OPD Pathway HMPPS
Jamie Scott
Service Manager, Personality Disorder and Neurodevelopmental Services
There are no declared or potential conflicts of interest in this decision making process.
Each criteria has equal weighting across the decision making process, the rationale for that being that the requirement is an essential service to support the rehabilitation of key individuals who participate in PIPE therapeutic interventions and therefore all key criterion are of equal importance:
•	Quality and innovation (20%)
The service is currently delivered to a high quality standard with proven outcomes in terms of the objectives of the PIPE therapeutic interventions being delivered.
•	Value (20%)
The providers of this service are engaged at agreed rates with no considerable change to this over the lifetime of this contract award.
•	Integration, collaboration and service sustainability (20%)
The PIPE promotes integration of service, collaboration and service sustainability by offering support to clinical leads and supporting their working collaboratively to demonstrate continuous improvement in the delivery and development of the service. Supervision is a fundamental pillar of this and key to the ongoing success of the therapeutic environment.
•	Improving access, reducing health inequalities and facilitating choice (20%)
The PIPE promotes the understanding of the therapeutic environment, supporting the network across this service, and its ongoing growth thereby improving access over the longer term. Health inequalities are reduced by improvement of outcomes for service users and a continuous improvement in the provision of the service.
•	Social value (20%)
much of the service delivery for PIPE supervision is delivered remotely, thereby reducing travel and related emissions, supporting the NHS in its journey to net zero.

description: The initial contract period is for the 2024 survey. 2 x 12 month extensions are to be awarded on an annual basis subject to confirmation of funding and are NOT guaranteed.

description:
From 2003 to 2023, commercial beam trawlers, working under the Fisheries Science Partnership (FSP) and subsequent fisheries monitoring programme, have surveyed the abundance of sole, plaice, anglerfish, lemon sole, megrim and cod in the Western English Channel.

The locations fished, and gears used were chosen initially by the industry and since then were retained consistently. On-board the vessel, Cefas staff sample the catch and analyse the catch data. This catch rate data indicates the changing abundance of the year classes and the rate of fishing on the stock. This "time-series" catch data is used in the ICES stock assessments for plaice and sole. The results from the previous years are summarised in the annual reports on the Cefas web site.

This tender seeks to secure a suitable vessel and all management, crew, victuals, fuel, and other services necessary to carry out the requirements specified below.

The survey's main aim is to investigate trends in the distribution, abundance, and age composition of sole and plaice, and to provide some information on by-catch species. For sole and plaice, the indices of abundance from the survey are one of the datasets used in the ICES Division 7.e stock assessments, together with other survey and fishery data, which help estimate the stock trends over time.

This opportunity is for a data collection activity with a 4-metre beam trawl during 2024 (late August - mid October). The target species for age/length sampling are sole, plaice and & other commercially important species.

Subject to confirmation of funding, further surveys in subsequent years may be required. The Contract could be extended for up to a further 2 years in annual increments. If confirmed, these will be conducted within the same time period each year and following the same survey procedure.

The project has two components; fishing undertaken by fishermen with knowledge of the area and fishery, and the science undertaken by Cefas. This opportunity is for the fishing component only, although the skipper will be expected to contribute to the overall project report produced by Cefas.

title: Investment in Forests and Sustainable Land Use Phase 2 (IFSLU2) Component 5 (MEL)

description:
IFSLU2 is a flagship programme under the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office's (FCDO) International Climate Finance (ICF) portfolio.
IFLSU2 is a £500 million commitment over a 10-year period, with a first tranche of £195m starting in Financial Year (FY) 2023/24 with a planned end of 31st March 2028. This new commitment of ODA funding will build on a successful first phase of operations through Investments in Forests and Sustainable Land Use (IFSLU1) (£140m, 2015-24).
IFLSU1 worked with the private sector to develop and implement new approaches to business which balance commodity production, livelihoods and forest protection and mobilise investment in protection and sustainable use of forest resources. Results include over £1bn in private investment mobilised into sustainable agriculture, forest protection and restoration. This has improved management across 4.5m hectares of land, benefiting over 250,000 people, mainly smallholder farmers and rural communities.
IFLSU2 will be delivered through five linked components:
• Component 1 – Business incubation, pipeline development, business enabling conditions and demand-side measures. Interventions oriented towards catalysing forest-friendly enterprises in forest landscapes in East Africa, West and Central Africa, Latin America and South-East Asia.
• Component 2 – Enhanced support for smallholder farmers. Interventions oriented towards reaching smallholders at scale in order to support their transition to sustainable production in ways that deliver strong developmental and social outcomes.
• Component 3 – Business and market development in the Congo Basin. Interventions oriented towards building the fundamental enabling conditions, capabilities, and structures to enable business-led sustainable production in Congo Basin countries.
• Component 4 – Policy support to catalyse transformational change and action at scale. Interventions oriented towards building political momentum, action, collaboration, demand shifts and policy change through global and regional level collaboration.
• Component 5 – Monitoring, evaluation, learning (MEL) and knowledge: Independent monitoring and evaluation to support programme-wide learning, inform management decisions, programme strategy and delivery and strengthen evidence.
This is expected to mobilise £2bn in private investment; directly benefit 0.5m people, mainly small farmers and poor rural communities; and improve management across over 10m ha of land.
The aim of this Early Market Engagement (EME) event is to inform and consult the market of the upcoming IFSLU2Components 5 (MEL) procurement.
