NHS Wales Shared Service Partnership on behalf of Public Health Wales NHS Trust wish to inform the market that due to the Covid-19, global pandemic they are awarding a contract for the provision of Sexually Transmitted Infection testing kits, postal envelopes and any other associated consumables to continue an online service for self-sampling. NHS Wales Trust have been running an online service for self-sampling for STI’s since 2018 and will eventually expand to an All Wales Agreement. Public Health Wales laboratories previously supported the expansion which has been agreed by Welsh Government. However, during the first wave of the Covid-19 pandemic, Public Health Wales laboratories were suspended for the use of STI sampling to support the national testing campaign. Therefore in order to enable the provision of STI testing and to continue the patient online service for self-sampling, Public Health Wales awarded a contract to HSL Pathology Lab to continue the testing in private laboratories during the height of the pandemic. However, now that the cases associated with the Covid-19 pandemic are rising further and the Public Health Wales laboratories are overwhelmed with Covid-19 testing, the service are awarding an extension contract to HSL Pathology Lab. The external provider are currently able to deal with 15000 requests a week between now and end of March 2021 in order to ensure continuation of sexual health testing.

NWSSP on behalf of Cwm Taf Morgannwg UHB is has appointed Care-Com Systems (SW) Ltd to renew its nurse call, affray alarm, and communication systems installed across the following sites: • Princess of Wales Hospital (POW) – Various Wards • Maritime Mental Health Unit • Glanrhyd Medium Secure Unit – Affray Alarm System • Glanrhyd – Appleton Clinic • Glanrhyd – Caswell Clinic Alarm Monitoring System • Dewi Sant Hospital The products are all designed, manufactured, and commissioned by Carecom. These systems operate on a closed protocol architecture, and all firmware, micro controller programming, and communication protocols are the intellectual property of Carecom. As a result, no other provider is able to deliver maintenance, software support, or system upgrades to the equipment installed across these sites. Attempting to engage an alternative supplier for any of the above sites would introduce significant risks to patient safety, system integrity, and operational continuity, as third parties do not have legal or technical access to the proprietary software, diagnostic tools, or configuration environment. Due to this, only the original manufacturer can safely and lawfully provide the required services.

The requirement supports HDUHB’s Digital Services Development Team with a solution to analyse code as it is written to identify insecure code writing and facilitate the correction of security flaws within their software.

Additionally, the real-time assessment of code in the writing phase means the need to continuously analyse the software following release through static penetration tests is removed, which will reduce the development lifecycle.

Hywel Dda University Health Board intends to award a contract for the delivery of an Asset Based Community Development (ABCD) and Asset Based Workforce Development (ABWD) programme to Nurture Development via a direct award route. This programme is central to the region’s commitment to embed the Social Model for Health and Wellbeing (SMfHW) and will underpin system wide cultural change across Carmarthenshire, Ceredigion and Pembrokeshire. The work requires a provider with the rare ability to integrate ABCD and ABWD approaches, deliver large scale workforce development, and align directly with the SMfHW Delivery Plan (2025–2028). This includes delivery of leadership engagement, workforce surveys, community based insight gathering, immersive training, mentoring, and a Train the Trainer model within tight delivery timelines. Dr Russell is the only provider able to deliver this package to the required technical standard and within the timescales available. This is due to the following factors: • Unique specialist expertise in both ABCD and ABWD, combined with experience in system wide cultural change—expertise not available from other UK providers, who typically specialise in only one of these domains. • Established alignment with the Hywel Dda SMfHW programme, including existing knowledge of the region’s Charter, Principles, Maturity Matrix, and ongoing workstreams, removing the need for lengthy orientation and ensuring continuity. • Ability to mobilise immediately, which is essential to meet financial year and delivery commitments. Alternative national providers have mobilisation lead times of 6–12 months and cannot commence within the required window. • Contextual understanding of West Wales, including rurality, population health challenges and partnership infrastructure, ensuring the programme is locally relevant and operationally feasible. • Capacity to deliver in person across the region, and to provide culturally competent delivery tailored to local needs, including the ability to incorporate Welsh medium content where needed. Given the urgent timelines, the technical specificity of the programme, and the absence of any alternative provider capable of delivering the integrated ABCD/ABWD model at the required scale, pace and depth, a direct award to Nurture Development represents the only viable and value for money option to fulfil the Health Board’s obligations and deliver on the regional SMfHW commitments
