The procurement is for the provision of specialist planning legal services, providing legal advice, drafting, negotiation, advocacy support and representation across the full range of town and country planning and related matters arising under the law of England and Wales, in support of the planning approval process for the three sites associated with the Trust's New Hospital Programme during RIBA Stages 2 to 4.
The scope includes, but is not limited to:

* Judicial review and statutory challenge advice under the Town and Country Planning Act 1990;

The Trust operates from a live, occupied acute site and places a strong emphasis on stakeholder engagement, transparency and the management of planning risk.
The initial contractual commitment is for RIBA Stage 2 only. The anticipated overall contract term is two years, subject to the time required for RIBA Stages 2, 3 and 4 to be completed and planning approval obtained; the Trust reserves the right to extend the contract to include RIBA Stages 4 and 5. The contract duration under this notice is for the provision of the town planning legal advice requirements only, and does not represent or imply any timeframe for completion of the wider New Hospital Programme or the Trust's retained estate works.
This procurement is being conducted as an open procedure under the Procurement Act 2023. Interested suppliers must submit a full tender by the deadline stated in the tender documents, including responses to the conditions of participation, which are assessed on a pass/fail basis.

Supply, Installation and Operation of an Occupancy Sensor and Monitoring Solution
The University of Portsmouth operates from a multi-building urban campus in the centre of Portsmouth, with a diverse estate comprising teaching spaces, laboratories, offices, research facilities, student services and social spaces.
The University does not currently have a systematic, data-driven understanding of how its buildings and rooms are used. Timetabling data tells us when spaces are scheduled, but not whether anyone is in them, or how many people are present compared to room capacity, and whilst we monitor attendance in certain sessions this relies on physical registration by identity card and reader resulting in a high degree of inaccuracy. This gap has two practical consequences:
• Energy waste: spaces are being heated, lit and ventilated regardless of whether they are occu-pied. Without occupancy data, the University cannot identify which spaces are consuming energy unnecessarily or target interventions effectively.
• Space planning based on assumptions: decisions about room allocation, timetabling, and future estate investment are made without reliable utilisation evidence. The University needs accurate, granular data to make better decisions about how its estate is used.
The University seeks to address both problems by deploying an occupancy sensor and monitoring solution across an initial set of campus buildings. The solution will provide real-time and historical data on room-level occupancy and headcount, accessible through a web-based reporting portal and integrated with the University's existing data analytics environment.

• Contract Commencement: TBC - Fairhive to confirm.

Extension Options: 1 Optional Year.
Potential Contract Expiry: TBC, dependent upon contract commencement date.
NB - This procurement is being undertaken as a below-threshold Request for Quotation (RFQ) under the Procurement Act 2023. As the estimated contract value is below the applicable procurement threshold, it is not subject to the full regulated procurement procedures that apply to above-threshold procurements. The Act requires a proportionate approach to below-threshold procurement and provides contracting authorities with greater flexibility in determining an appropriate route to market.
In accordance with this approach, the RFQ will be conducted on an invitation-only basis, with quotations being sought from a selected number of suppliers assessed as capable of delivering the requirement. This enables meaningful competition whilst maintaining a proportionate process aligned to the value, complexity and risk profile of the contract. Similar approaches are reflected within procurement guidance and procurement policies developed in response to the Procurement Act 2023.
For completeness, the Procurement Act 2023 does not require contracting authorities to run an open tender process for below-threshold procurements. In particular:
• Part 6 of the Act establishes a separate regime for below-threshold contracts, recognising that fewer obligations apply than for covered procurements.
• Section 85 sets out requirements where a contracting authority chooses to invite tenders for a regulated below-threshold contract but does not mandate that the opportunity must be advertised openly to all suppliers.
• The Act allows contracting authorities to take a proportionate approach to supplier selection and competition for below-threshold opportunities, provided that transparency requirements applicable to the procurement are met.
