title: Request for Quotation for Licensing Reform Pathfinder Project

description: Introduction This procurement will lead to appointment of a provider of training and support in Systems Thinking and Intervention Theory methodology to assist in creating an internal change capability to transform licensing services. Cornwall Council has won an Innovation for Growth Project bid from the Better Regulation Delivery Office (BRDO) which is part of the Department for Business Innovation & Skills (BIS) to undertake a licensing reform project. Licensing can be defined as formal or official permission from an authority to do something such as to carry on a particular trade. We use the term to refer to the collective set of licences, permits, registration and consents issued by Councils. For the scope of this project planning permission and building regulations approval are not included. This is a national pathfinder project and is the only one in the country. It will inform the Government’s national licensing reform approach by creating a new licensing blueprint. Background; what we know The project will examine what changes a Council would need to make to realise the proposal for a single business licence issued on a licence-for-life basis. A single business licence would simplify the administrative requirements involved in setting up businesses, and make it significantly easier for businesses to work with councils, freeing up their time for other activity. It will explore how the Local Government Association’s (LGA) recent Rewiring Licensing proposals put to government could be implemented in practice, for which the Council’s Public Protection & Business Support provided input. These proposals have been published and can be accessed using this link:- http://www.local.gov.uk/documents/10180/5854661/L14-40+rewiring+open+for+business.+v3.pdf/6b8aa308-94cd-4af5-9b3a-5f2696a9a4b5 One of Rewiring Licensing’s key objectives is to simplify and streamline existing licensing systems through the creation of a single business licence. The single business licence proposal would cover all the different activities a business needs to be licensed for, and businesses would be able to apply for it via a single tick box application form submitted through a single transaction with the council. This would clearly put the onus on councils to join up different licensing functions in order that a timely response could be provided, potentially through a single point of contact with the business. This is a radically different approach to existing licensing procedures. Various services within Cornwall Council issue around 8,000 to 10,000 business authorisations a year. This includes the services of Public Protection & Business Support (Licensing, Food, Health & Safety, Environmental Protection, Trading Standards), Street Works, Housing, Cornwall Fire & Rescue and Registration. Businesses currently have to make several licence applications to a number of Council services which have been described as burdensome and can impact on business growth and success. Key Project Outcomes We are inviting tenders from providers who are in the position to deliver; 1. Training in a Systems Thinking and Intervention Theory methodology. Providing a closely related set of principles and approaches with which to review, analyse and improve service organisations. This work will result in a national best practice, customer centric model for providing licensing services in a Local Authority. It will be necessary for expertise in this method to be transferred to a team of staff through a combination of direct support and access to an e-learning product. The e-learning product should provide a library of tried and trusted techniques, arranged in a manner so as to allow users to guide their own learning and follow that which is of greatest interest or use to them. 2. Face to face support that will: • Set up our team to make sure they study the right things • Lead the team in consolidating the learning and support them in translating that learning into a process for analysis and a blue print for future service design • Manage and support the process as necessary to keep the team on track to ensure the specified deliverables are achieved. • Design, develop and support a standard methodology toolkit which Cornwall can use going forward. The initial requirement is for support for ‘rewiring licensing’ as described in the Background but other teams will also require access to the learning product and consultant support in the future. The following Objectives and outcomes of learning are expected as a minimum, these will need to be evidenced within the monthly contract review meetings and the end of project evaluation; • A robust understanding and mapping out of the existing licensing workflows (‘as-is’ current state) across the relevant services at Cornwall Council • Support in engaging with the business community to develop a co-designed ‘outside-in’ solution • An empirically derived blueprint for a simplified single business licence /administration system and the feasibility of implementing this locally. Key Project Outputs This project will involve mapping out existing licensing workflows (‘as-is’ current state) at Cornwall Council (one of the largest unitary authorities in England, where all licensing is under the realm of one council, including fire safety licensing). It will involve engaging with the business community (co-design workshop approach) to ascertain what ‘business-led’ changes are necessary to deliver the objective of a simplified single business licence /administration system and the feasibility of implementing this locally. It will identify any major legislative impediments that need to be addressed to facilitate the single business licence concept, for example, around licensing forms. It will help identify the appropriate next steps for local and central government in terms of the LGA’s proposals for licensing reform and a feasible ‘future state’ licensing blue print The Successful Provider will be required to: • Deliver a suitable Training Programme that delivers training to an estimated 5-10 staff initially with the flexibility for more in the future. More people may be included depending on cost. • Commence the training and support immediately after contract award. • Provide support that ensures our team study the right things; consolidate the learning, supporting them in translating that learning into a blue print for future service design and support the project process as necessary to keep the team on track and achieve the specified deliverables • Support, develop and approve a standard methodology toolkit which Cornwall can use going forward. • Demonstrate knowledge of and examples of significant improvements in customer satisfaction, service; efficiency, revenue and morale especially in Government/Public Sector service delivery • Provide evidence as to how they would bring credibility nationally to this study • Support the development of a blueprint that shows the alignment of support roles to add value to frontline activity • Support the development of measures being used systematically to improve performance. • It is essential that bidders have a proven track record of delivering in a similar scale and environment to the services required by the Council. • Support the identification of any major legislative impediments that need to be addressed to facilitate the single business licence concept The estimated value of the Services is between £17,500 and £22,500 and the project blueprint comprising all key project outputs and outcomes listed above will need to be delivered by May/June 2015. The Council will be appointing a sole provider for an initial contract period of 12 months with option to extend for an additional period of 12 months subject to mutual agreement.

title: Assessment of the Market, Renewable Heat Potential, Cost, Performance, and Characteristics of Non-Domestic Gas Driven Heat Pumps (GDHPs)

description: Non-domestic and domestic use of heat is responsible for producing around a third of the UK’s greenhouse gas emissions. Renewable heat meanwhile, in 2012, represented only 2.3 per cent of total heat usage. DECC aims to increase the contribution of renewable heat to 12 per cent of all UK heat in 2020, making a key contribution to the UK’s overall 2020 EU renewable energy target of 15 per cent. There are a range of renewable technologies that can provide low carbon heat, hot water and cooling, but all face significant barriers. Factors such as the upfront cost of installation, an underdeveloped UK supply chain, unfamiliarity to consumers and space requirements mean that these technologies are unlikely to reach their full mass market potential yet. There is currently a limited amount of information and data available on the costs, performance, and characteristics of Gas Driven Heat Pumps (GDHPs) for use in the non-domestic sector, or the potential ability of GDHPs to increase the deployment of renewable heat in the UK. The overall aim of this contract is to develop new evidence for DECC on the potential for gas driven heat pumps to provide renewable heat in the non-domestic sector. Robust evidence gathering, analysis and assessment is required to better understand a number of analytical questions around deployment and abatement potential, renewable energy contribution, performance, costs, and non-economic barriers. The evidence presented in this stage will help inform policy makers as to whether there is a case for support of GDHPs through the RHI or, if not, possibly via a different mechanism. Ideally we would like to communicate the advice on RHI suitability in a consultation in May 2014. Contract documents: The Invitation to Tender (ITT) is attached. Please download the ITT then email a completed version to the email address detailed below, in addition to sending 2 hard copies, one of which must be signed.

title: Main Contractor for the LICA Building C-Floor Fit Out at Lancaster University

description: The works comprise the design and fit out of C Floor at the Lancaster University LICA (Lancaster Institute for the Contemporary Arts) Building. This floor was left as a shell space when the building was completed in circa 2009. This tender is issued on behalf of Lancaster University, who is seeking First Stage Tender Submissions for a Two Stage Tender process. The successful Contractor will be required to adopt and take responsibility for the design undertaken on behalf of the Employer prior to his appointment. It is not intended that the current Architect will be novated to the Contractor and the Contractor will be responsible for completing the design. The Employer will retain the Services Engineer to undertake a compliance monitoring role. Tender Procedure It is proposed to select a Contractor using a two stage tender procedure in order to allow the early involvement of a Contractor during the design development phase. The object of the early Contractor involvement is to achieve a second stage tender within the target construction budget that reflects and satisfies the full requirements of Lancaster University in terms of design, programme, quality and value for money. Stage 1: On the basis of design and information given within the Stage 1 tender documents, tenders will be sought to identify a contractor who shall be appointed to work with the design team during the pre-construction phase. The form of tender for the first stage is left to the discretion of the tenderers, subject to the requirements listed within Section 2 of the tender document being met. Section 5 (Pre-Construction Services agreement) of the tender documents sets out the required duties of the contractor during the pre-construction phase. Stage 2: At the end of Stage 1 the Client will appoint a contractor to work with the client’s team during the pre-construction phase and to procure and negotiate a contract sum having regard to design, programme, quality and value for money. The design team will be updating the design during the stage 1 tender process, with the intent that following appointment of a Main Contractor at the first stage, the design services of the Clients team will terminate and the contractor will develop the design from there on in. All negotiations during the pre-construction phase are to be conducted on an open-book basis. Upon successful conclusion of the pre-construction phase the Contractor shall agree with the University a fixed cost for the project which shall constitute the Contract Sum. A construction contract may then be concluded at the clients discretion, subject to budgetary, funding, programme and other relevant targets being achieved. Construction Stage: Following acceptance of the stage 2 tender, it is currently proposed that the Architect will not be novated to the Contractor. The contractor may need to make allowance for completing the design in accordance with the previous floors. The Mechanical and Electrical Services Engineers are to be retained by the Client and it is envisaged that any necessary post contract M&E design will be the responsibility of the M&E sub-contractor acting through the main contractor.

title: NRM Miniature Railway, Package 1: Design and Infrastructure

description:
The National Railway Museum in York is the world’s premier railway museum, visited by 800,000 visitors annually. Our masterplan process has identified that the development of a new miniature railway is central to our future development, both offering an enjoyable experience for visitors and generating significant commercial income.

 An enhanced miniature railway would provide opportunity for a much larger number of visitors to ride, generate significant commercial income and provide new ways for the museum to work with volunteers and model railway enthusiasts. With this in mind, we are commissioning a new miniature railway to meet these requirements.

 Package 1: Design & Infrastructure

 There will be two stages to this contract; the first will be to work with the NRM and NRM’s appointed architects to design all aspects of the miniature railway scheme. Tenderer’s initial outline response to this tender will help to kick start this process. This design will include the track layout, stations, sheds, crossing points, bridges and tunnels (if applicable) and all the services needed for the safe and efficient operation of the railway, and will be developed in the context of the areas surrounding it on the museum site. In this instance the appointed contractor would be acting as a design consultant, finalising the design as part of the design team.

 Stage 2 of Package 1 will be to supply and install the track and track infrastructure. This includes all aspects of the layout except the stations, outbuildings, the locos and rolling stock. Before track installation begins the site will be prepared by the groundworks contractor. The track bed will be cleared and levelled ready for ballast and track to be installed.

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.

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.

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).

title: The Castle School (Newbury) Years 5-7 MLD Project

description:
This is a Contract Award Notice. The Castle School is one of two “all age” special schools in West Berkshire and caters for children between 2 and 19 years with severe and profound learning difficulties, a large number of whom have physical disabilities and sensory needs.

 The Castle School Years 5-7 MLD Project seeks to provide two 60m2 classrooms plus break-out areas and WC provision.

 The term ‘MLD’ is: Mild Learning Difficulties’ and such pupils are typically ambulant and do not require specific building adaptations.

 The proposed additional classrooms are to be provided by way of a traditional- build extension.

 The chosen design is a mono-pitch roofed construction and utilises glu-lam beams.

 The services element will include the provision of air handling units.

 The scope of works is expected to include drainage works, to alleviate site wide surface water issues.

 It is intended to construct the extension to the rear of the school site and this will necessitate the excavation of banking and the construction of a retaining wall.

 There are external works or hard landscaping associated with the project.

 As of mid-January 2014 the design has been signed-off to RIBA Stage 2 and is now close to RIBA Stage 3 sign-off.

 Both the Planning and Building Control Applications have been submitted.

 We do not foresee the need for a Contractor Design element – although we would expect a contractor to consider any areas in which they could offer added value.

 The building will need to be ready for occupation ahead of the new school term in September 2014.

description: As part of a continued commitment to improve the Right to Buy process for tenants, the Department for Communities and Local Government (DCLG) is seeking a single national provider to implement a Right to Buy Agent service covering England only. The opportunity is open to single bidders or consortium bids. The Right to Buy Agent service will provide those interested in the Right to Buy with support and advice, from enquiry stage, through to submitting an application and eventual completion of the purchase.

The Right to Buy Agent service is intended to help any eligible public sector tenant (both local authority and housing association) to understand more about the Right to Buy and the responsibilities of home ownership and to assist them with any application they may choose to submit. The Agents will take potential Right to Buy purchasers through, among other things, initial enquiries; budget considerations; signposting to mortgage advice – including to a brokerage service (if needed); signposting to legal advice, the application process and eventually to completion. The service will help tenants decide whether the Right to Buy scheme is appropriate for them and if so, assist them to complete the Right to Buy process. The Agent will deliver support that is accurate, helpful and consistent across the country (in terms of level of understand and assistance). The contract term will be for an initial period of 12 months with the option to extend for up to a further 24 months.

title: Provision of Health and Wellbeing Seminars/Workshops

description: In 2008/9 Cafcass had a sickness rate for its social workers of 16.2 days per person per year; one of the highest absence rates in the sector. Ongoing work from 2008/09 has reduced this figure to 7.3 days per social worker per year for 2013/14, and Cafcass is now viewed as a sector-leader in health and wellbeing. This is evidenced from recent success at the 2014 Employee Benefits Awards, winning ‘Best Healthcare and Wellbeing Benefits.’ Simultaneous to this reduction in sickness, over the past 5 years Cafcass has experienced a c70% increase in demand for care cases and a c20% increase in demand for private law cases (separating parents). Our overall budget has reduced by c£20m over the same period. This has resulted in increased workload pressure for staff. The organisation and its staff has adapted well to this, being assessed as ‘Good’ with ‘Outstanding’ leadership by Ofsted, our external regulator. To ensure continuation of Cafcass’s innovative approach to health and wellbeing, and to enhance performance by actively managing presenteeism, we are seeking to appoint provider(s) to a preferred provider list, to be used on a commission basis to support staff in enhancing their personal and professional wellbeing, and overall energy and resilience levels.
