About UK Shared Business Services Putting the business into shared services UK Shared Business Services Ltd (UK SBS) brings a commercial attitude to the public sector; helping our customers improve efficiency, generate savings and modernise. It is our vision to become the leading provider for our customers of shared business services in the UK public sector, continuously reducing cost and improving quality of business services for Government and the public sector. Our broad range of expert services is shared by our customers. This allows our customers the freedom to focus resources on core activities; innovating and transforming their own organisations. Core services include Procurement, Finance, Grants Admissions, Human Resources, Payroll, ISS, and Property Asset Management all underpinned by our Service Delivery and Contact Centre teams. UK SBS is a people rather than task focused business. It’s what makes us different to the traditional transactional shared services centre. What is more, being a not-for-profit organisation owned by its customers, UK SBS’ goals are aligned with the public sector and delivering best value for the UK taxpayer. UK Shared Business Services Ltd changed its name from RCUK Shared Services Centre Ltd in March 2013. Our Customers Growing from a foundation of supporting the Research Councils, 2012/13 saw Business Innovation and Skills (BIS) transition their procurement to UK SBS and Crown Commercial Service (CSS - previously Government Procurement Service) agree a Memorandum of Understanding with UK SBS to deliver two major procurement categories (construction and research) across Government. UK SBS currently manages £700m expenditure for its Customers, our growth projections anticipate this will rise to £1bn in 2014/15. Important information From the 2nd April 2014 the Government is introducing its new Government Security Classifications (GSC) classification scheme to replace the current Government Protective Marking Scheme (GPMS). A key aspect of this is the reduction in the number of security classifications used. All potential suppliers should make themselves aware of the changes as it may impact on this Requirement. The link below to the Gov.uk website provides information on the new GSC: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/government-security-classifications.

title: Demolition of 5-91 Althorne Way, Dagenham

description: Expression of interest advertisement in regard to the shortlist tender selection for the demolition of the 6 storey block that forms 5-91 Althorne Way, Dagenham, Essex, RM10. (works planned for Spring / Summer 2015). The London Borough of Barking & Dagenham is now inviting expressions of interest for either NFDC / NDA accredited demolition contractors to be shortlisted to a final tender list of 5 who will take part in the final selection process for the contract to demolish numbers 5-91 Althorne Way, which is located in a central Dagenham. The 6 storey block in question is of concrete framed construction and dates back to the 1960’s. Shop retail units are located at ground level with 5 levels of residential units over. The works are scheduled to take place in one singular phase and will involve stats terminations, soft strip, demolition and site clearance including removal of foundations and drainage within the buildings footprint. In terms of programme, it is anticipated the successful demolition contractor will not take complete ownership of the site until April / May 2015, but will have opportunity to start soft strip works and erect hoardings before this time. 5-91 Althorne Way is located close to Robert Clack and All Saints Secondary Schools and is located on a direct route of access for students attending these schools. A car park serving the Becontree Leisure Centre faces the block, with an access road to residential low rise blocks to the rear. The site can be accessed from the A1083 Green Lane and A1112 Whalebone Lane. The estimated cost of the contract is assumed to be circa £675,000.00 and restricted access to the block exists due to an access road to the rear. The works required from the demolition contractor will include:- • Arranging for meter removals and stats disconnections prior to demolition. • Ensuring any outstanding asbestos removal works is completed. • Securing the site and maintaining 24-hour security during demolition contract. • The demolition and site clearance of the 6 storey block including foundations and drainage to a depth of 2m. As part of these works there will be a requirement for the works to be co-ordinated with any Archaeological fieldworks as required. • Levelling the site upon completion of the works to the satisfaction of the appointed LBBD project manager. Tenders are anticipated to be issued at the end of 2014 with the view that the successful contractor will start the process of service disconnections / soft strip immediately upon appointment. As the block is located close to a number of schools, a leisure centre and a populated residential area, it is imperative that all works / vehicle movements are undertaken to the highest standards possible and with the upmost consideration to local residents. Expressions of Interest Companies wishing to be considered for this project must be fully NFDC / NDA approved and in their expression of interest must show proof of this. All expressions of interest to tender must be supported with the four following points. Please note you MUST adhere to the number of pages requested and that all information will be printed double sided. No consideration will be given to any submissions that fall outside this remit: 1. 3 separate case studies (including client references) of similar sized concrete framed demolitions that you have carried out in the last 3 years. You will need to show proof that these works work were completed during this time and ensure your client ref are current and may be contacted. – (Item 1 should be submitted on a maximum of 3 pages of A4 paper that can be double sided and your client contact names and numbers must be included. 2. Details of how you propose to carry out the demolition works, maintaining full vehicular / pedestrian access to the front and rear of the block together with timescales for the pure demolition phase. - (Item 2 should be submitted on a maximum of 2 pages of A4 paper that can be double sided). 3. What is your estimate for demolition, not including a figure for stats disconnections or asbestos removals? Please note, if you are successful in making the tender list the value you submit in your EOI will be cross reference and though variations will be included in the final tender document. General accuracy will be scored at this time. (Item 3 will not be marked as part of the EOI submission but will be cross referenced a tender stage and should be submitted on 1 page of A4 paper). 4. It’s strongly recommended you visit the block in order to accurately answer this question, but from accessing this expression of interest, what issues as a demolition contractor do you feel need to be managed and how do you feel your company and site team will be able to manage them. Any site specific items need to be included in your answer. – (Item 4 should be submitted on a total of 4 No pages of A4 paper that can be double sided). The total number of A4 pages that must be returned to LBBD will be a maximum of 11, one of which will be a covering letter on headed paper and the other 10 as specified above. As part of the short listing process question 1 will be weighted with 30 marks, question 2 30 marks, question 3 zero marks (but must be submitted) and question 4 40 marks. Marking against each of the four areas will be given by LBBD against the following: 0 - No response is submitted 1 – Response is given but its felt you have not addressed or understood the question. 2 – If it’s felt you have generally answered the question but left out any detail. 3 – You have demonstrated a good understanding of the requirements expected but clarification on a number of minor points is needed. 4 – Your response has fully met the expected criteria and no further clarification is required. 5 – You have expanded the expected response further and given an answer that really has impressed the marking team. ALL questions need to be answered and if further short listing is required, the references you submit in questions 1 and 4 may contacted and asked how they felt your company carried out the demolition works on site, if the works were delivered on time and if not reasons for delay. If the references you give no longer work for the company in question you will be scored zero, so before giving reference names and numbers it will be in your best interest to check first. If at this stage a number of contractors cannot be split they will be included in the tender subject to agreement with the marking team. All expressions of interest must be submitted in writing only and hard copies delivered to the Barking Town Hall by no later that 12 noon on Friday 24th October 2014.

Background - The OME provides support for all the independent Pay Review Bodies, and the Police Boards. In supporting these bodies, one of OME’s key functions is to provide high quality research-based technical advice drawing on economic, pay, labour market, statistical and other technical data. More information about the OME, the bodies it supports, and the research it undertakes, may be found on its website: http://www.ome.uk.com . The literature review will strengthen the evidence base on which the Review Bodies can draw in making recommendations on pay for 2.5 million public sector workers with a paybill of £95 billion. It will update the OME’s body of knowledge, while providing an independent, credible and rigorous overview of the evidence. The evidence on performance-related pay schemes in the public sector was last reviewed by CMPO for OME in 2007. This study would take that as a starting point and review the evidence since then, while taking into account the major findings of that previous work.

title: Integrated Transmission Planning and Regulation (ITPR) Project

description:
Ofgem is seeking specialist input into the characteristics of transmission assets that would create additional costs or challenges to introducing third party involvement in the delivery or operation of the asset and so could make it less suitable for a competitive approach.

 Consultants should consider the factors that are important in effective delivery of individual transmission assets, as well as factors important for effective operation of the local and wider transmission system.

 Potential effectiveness factors could include:

 -Timely design, pre-construction, construction, and commissioning of the asset

 -Asset being delivered to suitable quality that meets industry standards and codes and achieves the functions required of it

 -Technical operability of the local and wider transmission system during the construction period as well as during post-commissioning operation

 -Commercial arrangements between different asset owners are suitably manageable and not of unacceptable cost during construction and post-commissioning operation, either under current industry structures or under potential new structures

 -Within the above, consultants should consider the implications of third party involvement in different stages of asset life (e.g. design, detailed pre-construction, construction, operation and maintenance, etc.)

description: The Department of Energy and Climate Change (“DECC”) wishes to appoint a supplier to undertake qualitative research exploring the barriers and enablers for industrial heat recovery. The purpose of this research is to build upon an earlier study by Element Energy to further develop our evidence base in the area of industrial recovered heat. The outcomes of both projects will provide DECC with an increased understanding of what policy support could be developed to help support the recovery of industrial waste heat. The supplier will undertake the research to include methodology design, data collection, analysis and report its findings to DECC. Main research objectives: 1. the knowledge and attitudes of industry towards heat recovery and re-use; 2. the process organisations have gone through to invest in and develop recoverable heat, including considerations in decision-making; 3. the main barriers to industrial heat recovery and re-use; and 4. potential enablers which could overcome barriers and/or increase uptake of industrial heat recovery. The research will be commissioned in January 2015 and conclude in May 2015. Contractors should have (or be able to demonstrate capability of) skills in qualitative research in particular face-to-face interviewing, understanding of heat recovery and the technical, economic and commercial factors relating to this and understanding of commercial decision making processes. It is important that contractors are able to use qualitative data for analysis and report findings in an impactful manner.

title: 403/2014 DASHH-Planned Maintenance and Improvements-General Building Works

description: The Contracting Authority is seeking expressions of interest from suitably qualified and experienced contractors to enter into a contract to deliver a range of planned maintenance and improvements - General Building Works for its housing stock, schools and social care properties including (but not necessarily limited to) general building works such as replacement kitchens, bathrooms, extensions, adaptations, external works (roofs, windows, structural repairs, solid wall insulation, environmental works), and associated electrical and mechanical works Supporting the delivery of these services the successful contractor will also be required to have the ability to interface with the Council's Information and Communications Technology (ICT) systems in order to support the effective and efficient delivery of the programme, and to exchange service information with the Council and to undertake some of customer management. The proposal is to seek tenders based upon a price per archetypal model for each of the relevant works supported by a schedule of rates for planned maintenance works or any works and any other services which are not incorporated. The annual estimated value of works and services that is envisaged to be delivered under the Contract will be GBP £12m - £15m. The works under this proposed contract are expected to be provided to approximately 16,000 (or more) relevant properties in the first year of the contract but this number is likely to vary over the lifetime of the contract. The scope of works and services in this procurement also covers assets and properties related to this area of service including (but not limited to): estates-based assets such as garages, playgrounds, community facilities and estates infrastructure such as signage and lighting thereof; supported and sheltered accommodation; internal and external communal areas, other properties which the Council uses now or in the future for the purposes of housing people; similar properties where the Council has a responsibility to maintain or repair properties (although it may not be the owner of such properties) and other tenanted properties which relate to the Council's delivery of its social housing agenda. The scope will also include general building works to any Council school building and social care properties as and when required. The length of the contract is initially for five (5) years and the Council will have the option to extend this for up to a further 3 + 3 + 3 years, resulting in a possible maximum contract period of fourteen (14) years. The earliest the contract is expected to begin is October 2015. The Council proposes to enter into a form of contract with the successful contractor based on the standard contract for term partnering (TPC2005 amended 2008 with bespoke amendments). The Council proposes to use the competitive dialogue procedure for the purposes of procuring the contract and the tenders will be evaluated on the basis of achieving the most economically advantageous tender in the opinion of the Council. The Council proposes to use the process of dialogue to explore key service delivery and commercial options such as approaches to customer management, the pricing model and any other areas that are material to the identification of a solution which is most capable of meeting the Council's requirements. It is also intended that the Contract should be part of the Council's wider focus on ensuring that its economic activity is a catalyst for regeneration within the London Borough of Croydon. The successful contractor will therefore be required to actively participate in achieving these objectives and contract performance conditions may be imposed which relate to social value considerations, including supporting employment, creating apprenticeships, supporting priority groups, supporting business growth, supporting education to employment, supporting the community and governance. The technical capability of candidates to meet these requirements will also be assessed at the pre- qualification stage. Further details will be provided in the pre-qualification documents and dialogue-stage documents. Through this procurement, the Council will require the successful contractor to fulfil social value aims and objectives, so as to ensure Croydon as a place benefits from the expenditure related to the contract and changes people's lives for the better. The Council considers that the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations 2006 (TUPE) (as amended, re-enacted or consolidated) may apply to this contract. The purpose of TUPE is to preserve continuity of employment and to safeguard employment rights of all employees whose employment transfers to a new employer as a result of a relevant transfer.
