title: The Science Museum Group online Journal

description:
Context and rationale

 The Science Museum Group (SMG) is creating a new online journal to provide an innovative voice in discussions worldwide about science, its history, material culture, communication and presentation in museums. This will be an open-access forum to present peer-reviewed research relating to SMG’s collections and practise by scholars inside and outside the Museum Group. The audience is academics, Museum Professionals, members of societies and people interested in the work and thinking of the Museum. The first issue of the e-journal will launch in March 2014.

 Objectives and requirements

 The SMG e-journal will be a twice-yearly open-access, multi-platform digital journal presenting academic research around the Science Museum Group’s collections and practice by scholars both inside and outside the Museum Group.

 Our objective is to design and develop a high quality, responsive journal website, which is optimised and accessible on multiple devices. Whether viewed on mobile, tablet, large screen or printed out, it must provide a coherent brand- and user-experience and be rich and innovative in accessibility features.

 The journal should reflect the Museum’s extraordinary photographic collections and multimedia output by including high quality images, video, film and 3D objects. Use of multi-media is rare in academic journals and presenting it as an integral part of academic research will make the journal an exemplar in academic publishing.

 The SMG e-journal must work with journal abstraction services and third party directories as indexing, content distribution, search and discoverability are key to the journal's success.

 We prefer a mobile first approach with progressive enhancement to develop a flexible, performance-aware, component-based design system and prototype from early on. We would like to know how the tenderer proposes to achieve this.

 Other objectives can be summarised as follows:

 to showcase the quality and range of SMG research to the wider world

 to encourage a network of academic discussion, support and recognition between SMG and the wider academic community

 to establish SMG’s leading position in the Museum sector by demonstrating and sharing expertise

 to strengthen the interconnectedness of research from different sites, departments and specialisms

 to encourage the standard, amount and practise of research and publication among the SMG staff

 to provide a vehicle for dissemination of work to raise SMG’s profile and reputation and visibly broaden the impact of SMG research work beyond the group

 Each issue will contain the following:

 3 - 5 scholarly articles of 4,000 - 6,000 words

 2 - 4 shorter scholarly articles of 3,000 - 5,000 words

 1 - 3 book, conference or exhibitions reviews and comment pieces of 1,000 - 2,000 words

 a featured object / new acquisition article (1,000 words)

title: Procurement of GP Services - 4 Prisons Surrey (consisting of four Lots)

description: NHS Commercial Solutions acting on behalf of Kent and Medway Area Team - NHS England invites tenders from suitably qualified and experienced GP Service Providers. This procurement seeks a provider for the provision of Health Services at HMP: Coldingley, Downview, Highdown and Send. A brief description of the requirement is provided below: The provision of planned weekly sessions for GPs to provide primary care of all prisoners at four prisons in Surrey to the same standards as expected in the wider community. There is also an expectation that time will be spent in contributing to the wider healthcare agenda particularly leadership around clinical governance and support in developing pathways, assuring services and provision of advice as required. There is a clear expectation that the service provider will strive to continuously improve service delivery, embrace innovation and provide a flexible service which can readily respond to changing needs. The requirement is split into 4 Lots - one for each prison: Lot 1 HMP Coldingley HMP Coldingley is a Male Category C training prison and is focused on the resettlement of prisoners. It provides a framework to support the achievement of realistic resettlement goals by offering opportunities to prisoners willing to work hard and accept responsibility for achieving those goals. The Government’s response to the Green Paper reinforced its commitment to make prisons places of real work, where prisoners acquire a work ethic working as close to a normal working week as possible and acquire skills and experiences which will best equip them to obtain and keep a job on release. This signals a significant shift away from regimes in which education and vocational training could dominate and towards a regime where, important though both those regime components are, they complement a greater emphasis on work itself. The approach at Coldingley has therefore been to focus on enabling prisoners to acquire ‘job ready’ skills – the habit of going to work routinely and behaving well - and experience in work which they are most likely to find in the communities in which they will live on release. It is expected that there will be a need for a minimal clinical service at Coldingley. Services will need to take into account the need for clients to attend work during the working day, and must therefore work flexibly to accommodate this. Operational Capacity: 513 Estimated Value Lot 1 £873,000 total 5 years Lot 2; HMP Downview It was announced by the Justice Secretary on 4 September 2013, that HMP Downview would re-role from its then current function, as a closed women's prison, to hold category C and D adult male prisoners. The re-role process is underway and it is anticipated that Downview will start taking male prisoners soon. Final decisions have yet to be taken as to the exact demographic of these prisoners, and the exact nature of the regime, but it is currently anticipated that the population will be sentenced (not remands) men (over the age of 21) predominently from London and the Southeast, who are in the latter stages of their sentences. No further details are available at this stage. Estimated Value Lot 2 £702,000 total 5 years Lot 3; HMP High Down HMP High Down opened in 1992 High down is situated opposite HMP Downview in Sutton. Built on the site of a former mental hospital at Banstead, the establishment serves the Crown Court at Guildford and Croydon and surrounding magistrate’s courts. Operational Capacity: 1163 Estimated Value Lot 3 £1,341,000 Total 5 years Lot 4: HMP Send HMP Send Re-categorised in 1998 as a female establishment and it was completely rebuilt by 1999. Send currently operates as a closed Female Training Prison. It also houses the only National Female Prison 20 bed Substance Misuse Treatment Unit, an 80 bed Resettlement Unit and a Therapeutic Community Unit with a capacity of 32. Operational Capacity: 282 Estimated Value Lot 4 £585,000 Total 5 years A Bidder Event that will give potential bidders more information about the process and the requirement will be held at HMP Coldingley 18th September at 12:30. Interested parties should state via Bravo that they are interested in attending by 17:00 on 15th September 2014. IMPORTANT The tender will be conducted via the NHS Commercial Solutions Bravo e tendering system.

The aim is to improve the educational outcomes for pupils through using values from a military ethos, such as self-discipline, confidence and teamwork. In particular this work aims to support pupils with behaviour and attendance issues and/or who are either disengaged with education or at risk of becoming disengaged. Focus should include supporting the transitional periods from primary to secondary education and from secondary education into post-16 education or employment alongside part-time study and training. Bidders should have the capacity to operate at national level and to work with primary and secondary schools, other AP providers, and further education and sixth form colleges, utilising the skills of a high proportion of former armed services personnel or other staff with experience in this field of work. All bids must clearly demonstrate how educational attainment will be improved towards standards of mainstream schooling, including steps to improve those things which support it such as good behaviour and attendance. This is an invitation for proposals for a grant to commence from 1 September 2014. Bidders should provide a breakdown of costs for the individual elements of work the bidder proposes to undertake in relation to raising educational standards in schools through the use of military ethos. The funding for this grant has not yet been authorised and bidders should be aware that the department will cancel the tender if the funding is cancelled. You should also be aware that you will not be entitled to claim from the Department any costs or expenses which you may incur in preparing your tender whether or not your tender is successful or the tender is cancelled through lack of funding. Value range is £500,000-£1,000,000m. The value range given is indicative only for each piece of work, bids at higher or lower values also will be considered.

Provided with the property list is the indicative quantity works requirement for approximately 60% of the properties. However, as part of the works requirement, the contractor will be required to re-measure the amount of works for each property once on site. The Council will validate the works volumes before, during and after works completion.

 The Programme will consist of works such as replacement and repair of existing fencing. The successful Service Provider will have proven experience in liaising effectively with residents, who will usually remain in occupation during the works, and other stakeholders on the estates to ensure the delivering of high quality works.

 This work is a high priority and the Council is therefore seeking a contractor that can demonstrate sufficient resources to complete the works in a timely manner (works to commence October 2014).

title: Lovelock exhibition build services

description:
The Science Museum plans to open its exhibition on the archive of James Lovelock in April 2014. It is expected to run for between six months and a year. This exhibition puts highlights from Lovelock’s archive – acquired by the Museum in 2012 – on public display for the first time.

 Lovelock is one of our best-known living scientists. The exhibition will explore his unusual scientific career across multiple disciplines – medicine, chemistry, space exploration and environmental science – that culminated in his most famous work on the Gaia theory. From its beginnings, Gaia – the notion of the Earth is a self-regulating organism – was much discussed and contested, and continues to be the subject of lively discussion amongst scientists today.

 Items from the archive (including laboratory notes, sketches and writings, annotated manuscripts, correspondence and photographs), and a few selected 3D objects, will be supplemented with audio and audiovisual recordings of Lovelock himself, his supporters and critics. These not only reveal the extraordinary scope of his work, but also give glimpses into his creative mind and charismatic personality.

 The target audience of the exhibition will be independent adults without specialist knowledge of climate science or archives.

 The exhibition will be located in Gallery 42, on the second floor of the Museum. The gallery is currently occupied by the Signs, Symbols, Secrets exhibition and is open to the public.

 A key driver to all design across the Science Museum – in particular for projects within the Climate Changing Programme – is a commitment to reduce our carbon footprint and to find sustainable solutions from both an energy use and materials perspective.

title: Mental Capacity Assessment & Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards (MCA & DoLS)

description: NHS Walsall CCG aim to work with a range of partner agencies, to develop a suite of initiatives aimed at raising awareness of MCA and DOLS. Walsall CCG will host the project however the focus will be firmly on leading a collaborative and multi-agency approach. NHS Walsall CCG will act as the lead Commissioner; however the service will work across Walsall, Wolverhampton and Dudley localities. The project will seek to encourage and support innovation by bringing together people who are already passionate in this field, so that their drive can in turn enthuse others who are not currently engaged in this area - be they professionals, users or carers. This project will seek to link into PALS, existing user groups, voluntary sector providers, local authority colleagues, IMCA services, provider Trusts, Office of Public Guardian and will use communication structures within the CCG cluster to get real public engagement. MCA and DoLs legislation has presented challenges since it was first introduced. It is often subject to misunderstanding, confusion and differences in interpretation and this in turn can lead to inconsistency in application and practice. This is a nationally recognised issue: In April 2012 the NHS Deputy Chief Executive wrote to the Chief Executives of all NHS Provider trusts and PCTs, highlighting widespread variation in practice across the country and a lack of clarity as to the circumstances when the deprivation of liberty safeguards should be used. Successive CQC reports have highlighted concerns in practice, noting that • The umbrella legislation of the Mental Capacity Act (MCA) is not well understood or implemented in practice • There is still a lack of understanding of the MCA among some staff in hospitals and care homes • The implications of the DoLS Safeguards in practice are not easy to understand. • The use of restraint is not always recognised or recorded and therefore not easy to monitor • There is wide variation in how local authorities carry out their functions as supervisory bodies. • It is not clear whether people’s views and experiences of the Safeguards are being heard in care homes and hospitals. CQC expectations are that: • Providers and commissioners of services for vulnerable adults improve their understanding of the Mental Capacity Act and the Safeguards • Providers and commissioners of services to establish robust review processes and other mechanisms for understanding the experience of people subject to the DOLS Safeguards. The recent parliamentary health committee scrutiny report found the current situation around DoLS ‘profoundly depressing and complacent’, noting that ‘people who suffer from lack of mental capacity are among the most vulnerable members of society…. they are currently widely exposed to abuse because the controls which are supposed to protect them are woefully inadequate’. The committee called for an urgent review of DoLS legislation to be presented before parliament within the next 12 months. To view the proposed specification of service detailing full technical requirements please visit https://mlcsu.bravosolution.co.uk/web/login.shtml and select Project_325 – you will then be able to access the specification in full. In order to participate providers must register on Bravo, (https://mlcsu.bravosolution.co.uk/web/login.shtml ) they must then select Project_325 and complete the relevant tender documentation entitled ITT_279.

title: UK SBS RE140219BIS - Primary Authority Research

description: The Primary Authority scheme was introduced by the Regulatory Enforcement and Sanctions (RES) Act 2008. Primary Authority offers businesses the opportunity to form a legally recognised partnership with one local authority, which then provides robust and reliable advice for other councils to take into account when carrying out inspections or dealing with non-compliance. The scheme is a common sense Government initiative to cut red tape and support economic growth through better local regulation. It is one of the most effective ways for local regulators to improve protection and support their business communities. Aim and Objectives This research will look at the how the scheme is operating and the impact of the scheme on both businesses and Local Authorities who are Primary Authorities. The research will look solely at direct partnerships. This is because co-ordinated partnerships have only existed since October 2014 and are at too early a stage for a full evaluation. There will also be separate research looking at the benefits and costs to Enforcing Officers. This research will form part of the Post Implementation Review showing the extent of benefits and costs to businesses and local authorities and identifying areas to improve in the future. The research will seek to build on existing research by providing a counterfactual to the scheme in an attempt to remove the impact of other better regulation measures from the benefits identified by primary authority businesses. The aim of the research is to: • Assess the policies success against the original objectives of the scheme, • Identify and measure benefits and costs to businesses and local authorities in a primary authority partnership. The work will need to provide a rigorous basis for economic analysis of these impacts • Identify areas for improvement within the scheme • Identify regulations which businesses and local authorities would like to include in the scope of the policy. • Assess the quality of existing partnerships with in primary authority.
