The level and spectrum of pre-development work required for projects will vary and some may only require limited input.The framework will contain a maximum of three (3) multi-disciplinary teams to provide services across a range of regeneration, planning, property, and technical areas. Each multi-disciplinary team / framework partner will be required to provide the following skills and expertise: Project and programme management Property and commercial, including valuations, appraisals, acquisitions/ CPO, market intelligence, and economic guidance Delivery models and approaches Development options, feasibility, and pre-development Development funding and financing Cost consultants Business case development including benefit cost ratios and cash flows Concept plans, capacity layouts and master planning Planning and planning policy guidance Inward investment, marketing, and branding Architectural Consulting engineer(s) e.g. remediation, flood risk, transport & highways, utilities, civils, drainage Environmental consultants e.g. noise, air quality, ecology, heritage conservation, arboriculture.

Gateline Supply and Maintenance Agreement

Northern Trains Limited (NTL), the "Utility", a Train Operating Company (TOC) that operates passenger rail services across the North of England, is undertaking this procurement process on behalf of a number of "Contracting Utilities" including Train Operating Companies in Great Britain, Network Rail, and a number of Local Transport Authorities. The requirement comprises a framework agreement for the supply and maintenance of Gateline Infrastructure that will enable members of the travelling public to access rail services at stations and other designated locations. The services include: a)Supply of New Gateline infrastructure, including the mechanical components required to control passenger access to designated areas; bank-card readers that possess the necessary certification for compliant use; ITSO card and bar-code readers; b)Installation and Commissioning Services - of Gateline Infrastructure including any required sourcing and supply arrangements, planning, permissions, civils works, connection to all systems and networks, testing and commissioning compliant with all rail industry and other required compliance requirements and standards. An option to decommission Gateline Infrastructure is included within these services; c)The option for Upgrades to existing Gateline components - as may be required so that existing infrastructure or components may be updated and improved to reflect latest functionality and standards; d)Maintenance and Operation - including Device Management to enable the operation of both new and updated Gateline Infrastructure to effective operational levels, providing an acceptable level of service to the public; and e)Demonstrable delivery of Social Value The key objective of the procurement is to establish a framework agreement with a single economic operator that will enable NTL "the Utility" (and the other Contracting Utilities listed on this notice) to enter into their own respective Agreements under the framework following conclusion of the procurement exercise. The nature of the Gateline Supply and Maintenance Agreement is that both supply, works and services will be 'called-off' by the Utility and Contracting Utilities in accordance with their specific requirements following contract award and in accordance with a 'call-off' procedure that will be subject to negotiation during the procurement process. The value of the Gateline Supply and Maintenance Agreement will therefore depend upon the level of subscription to the framework, however the estimated value is based upon supply and commissioning of 500 Gateline Infrastructure components and their operation and maintenance over the initial contract term and two extension periods. Northern Trains (NTL) has chosen to run the procurement under the negotiated procedure with a prior call for competition under Regulation 47 of the Utilities Contract Regulations 2016. Given the subject matter of the framework agreement and the exceptional circumstances that apply in respect of award of a contract to single economic operator and proprietary nature of maintenance and operation obligations, the term of the agreement will exceed 8 years as set out in Clause 51(3) of the Utilities Contracts Regulations 2016. The contract term for the Gateline Supply and Maintenance Agreement is consequently a five-year initial term with two options for further 5-year extensions.

Strategic Resource Options: Programme Partners (PP) Framework

II.2.4) Description of the procurement:(nature and quantity of works, supplies or services or indication of needs and requirements; for supplies only - state whether tenders are requested for purchase, lease, rental, hire purchase or any combination of those)Thames Water Utilities Ltd (TWUL) Strategic Resource Options (SRO) - Programme Partners (PP) Framework TWUL's current portfolio of SRO projects includes, but is not limited to, the Southeast Strategic Reservoir Option (SESRO), Severn to Thames Transfer (STT), London Water Recycling (LWR) projects, Thames to Affinity Transfer (T2AT) and Thames to Southern Transfer (T2ST). Further information, including RAPID Gate 1 and 2 reports, can be found on this link: https://www.ofwat.gov.uk/regulated-companies/rapid/the-rapid-gated-process/TWUL intends to establish a PP Framework primarily to support its SRO Program. This is the first phase of a longer-term procurement strategy to establish the professional services supply chain that TWUL needs to support its wider business. This procurement is for the PP Framework only and relates to Phase 1 of the procurement strategy. Existing TWUL professional services frameworks are not impacted by the procurements outlined in this notice.The successful tenderers will interface with several other partners that will be procured separately to support the SRO Programme as it develops. TWUL are looking for leading expertise within the key disciplines outlined below to accelerate the delivery and management of this high-profile programme. The PP will need to demonstrate extensive experience in programme management to enable it to support and management across the SRO portfolio which will include large complex infrastructure schemes being progressed under the current UK planning environment. The PP role includes being able to provide strong leadership, excellent technical capability, and proven expertise in supporting Clients and managing programmes of work (in this case the delivery of large pipelines, reservoirs, water recycling and transfer facilities). Furthermore, the PP will need to provide programme management and controls expertise to oversee and advise up all aspects of preliminary design and the pre application engagement with the Planning Inspectorate and to assist with the development / management of planning applications (likely to be a Development Consent Order (DCO)) including assisting with stakeholder engagement and all elements of the pre consultation and planning application processes. The PP framework agreement will be awarded under the NEC4 Professional Services Contract Option E with amendments. Provision will be made in the call-off contracts for utilisation of Option A, C and E. TWUL intends to award the first work package from the PP framework agreement immediately following the appointment of framework suppliers. It is our intention that appointment as a Programme Partner to one or multiple SRO projects will be for the duration of that particular scheme. This approach is due to the complexity and phasing of projects within the SRO programme. The risk of disruption and inefficiency that would be caused through multiple handovers between Programme Partners during a project is high and would be sub optimal for TWUL. Our intention is that the parties to the framework compete for the role of Programme Partner via an initial mini competition and that subject to the successful party's performance, capability and capacity, it will remain the Programme Partner for the scope of services that was competed.Sufficient information will be included in the mini-competition tender pack to enable bidders to prepare solutions for the potential services that may be required by TWUL. The scope of initial mini competitions will be construed widely to enable our approach and all parties wishing to compete will have the appropriate opportunity to seek clarification on the breadth, depth and

Strategic Resource Options: Technical Partners (TP) Framework

Thames Water Utilities Ltd (TWUL) Strategic Resource Options (SRO) - Technical Partners (TP) Framework TWUL's current portfolio of SRO projects includes, but is not limited to, the Southeast Strategic Reservoir Option (SESRO), Severn to Thames Transfer (STT), London Water Recycling (LWR) projects, Thames to Affinity Transfer (T2AT) and Thames to Southern Transfer (T2ST). Further information, including RAPID Gate 1 and 2 reports, can be found on this link: https://www.ofwat.gov.uk/regulated-companies/rapid/the-rapid-gated-process/TWUL intends to establish a TP framework primarily to support its SRO program. This is the first phase of a longer-term procurement strategy to establish the professional services supply chain that TWUL needs to support its wider business. This procurement is for the TP Framework only and relates to Phase 1 of the strategy. Existing TWUL professional services frameworks are not impacted by the procurements outlined in this notice.The successful tenderers will interface with several other partners that will be procured separately to support the SRO Programme as it develops. TWUL are looking for leading expertise within the key disciplines outlined below to accelerate the delivery of this high-profile programme. The TP will need to demonstrate extensive experience in the development and support the delivery of large complex infrastructure schemes in the current UK planning environment. This includes being able to provide strong leadership, excellent technical capability, and proven expertise in supporting the delivery of large pipelines, reservoirs, water recycling and transfer facilities. Furthermore, the TP will need to provide technical expertise to manage all aspects of preliminary design and managing the pre application engagement with the Planning Inspectorate and develop/manage the planning application (likely to be a Development Consent Order (DCO)) including stakeholder engagement and all elements of the pre consultation and planning application processes. The TP framework agreement will be awarded under the NEC4 Professional Services Contract Option E with amendments. Provision will be made in the call-off contracts for utilisation of Option A, C and E. TWUL intends to award the first work package from the TP framework agreement immediately following the appointment of framework suppliers. It is our intention that appointment as a technical partner to one or multiple SRO projects will be for the duration of that particular project. This approach is due to the complexity and phasing of projects within the SRO programme. The risk of disruption and inefficiency that would be caused through multiple handovers between Technical Partners during a project is high and would be sub optimal for TWUL. Our intention is that the parties to the framework compete for the role of TP for a specific project via an initial mini competition and that subject to performance, capability and capacity, the successful party will be the technical partner for the duration of the particular project.Sufficient information will be included in the mini-competition tender pack to enable bidders to prepare solutions for the potential services that may be required by TWUL. The scope of initial mini competitions will be construed widely to enable our approach and all parties wishing to compete will have the appropriate opportunity to seek clarification on the breadth, depth and operation of the resulting call off contract(s). The duration of the TP framework will be up to 8 years and is required to support a regulated delivery schedule. It is intended that the successful TP at call-off will cover the development phase into the mobilisation of the future Delivery Partner(s) in the detailed design and construction phase.The TP framework scope is likely to comprise of, but is not limited to, the following high level service categories:• General Technical Partner Suppo

Maintenance Services for Leachate Collection & Treatment Systems

Lancashire County Council (The Authority) is inviting tenders for the provision of maintenance services for the Authority's leachate collection and treatment systems. The Authority operates eight waste landfill sites throughout the county of Lancashire. The leachate collection and treatment systems at each site are designed to collect and/or collect and treat leachate prior to its discharge to foul sewer. Leachate is the liquid that drains or "leaches" from a landfill and is an unavoidable product of landfill. The liquid will have passed through materials and extracted solutes, suspended solids or any other component of the material through which it has passed. The Authority has a responsibility to ensure the leachate is collected and treated prior to its safe disposal into foul sewer to avoid pollution.The performance of the Council's landfill drainage treatment systems is regulated by United Utilities Plc and the Environment Agency. The Authority has a responsibility to manage closed landfill sites as well as enforcing environmental standards, as per various legislative requirements such as Environmental Protection Act 1990, Environmental Permitting Regulations 2016 and Water Industry Act 1991. Therefore it is important that the systems designed to achieve these responsibilities are effectively cleaned and maintained. The Services involve pipe work and sewer jetting, leachate sump and tank cleaning, lagoon cleaning and additional services as requested by the Authority from time to time. Additional services includes scope for out-of-hours work although in practice this is a rarity. Please view the procurement documents for further information about service requirements.

The full scope of the works will be explained at an on-site briefing meeting on 27 April to be held at 11am at the Play Area.Due to the high soil moisture content, play installations should consider the need for longevity, low maintenance and avoidance of rot (minimising/excluding use of wood structurally especially in ground, though wood cladding is an attractive and viable option)The successful tenderer shall ensure that all equipment and surface finishes meet the necessary safety and play equipment standards. They will provide details of warranty and maintenance offered as part of the proposals.The successful tenderer shall also obtain all necessary statutory approvals that may be required.The tender will include for the removal and disposal of all existing equipment, surfacing and other waste materials and installation of new equipment to include surfacing and making good as required.
