Scope as published

The MCA’s requirements are divided into three parts : . MCA Requirement will cover the following: Part 1: Noise Risk Assessment and Recommended Levels of Hearing Protection A feasibility study is required to determine the extent of noise exposure experienced by SCOO and CRO rescue team members during helicopter related operations. These personnel assist with the removal of casualties from helicopters when transferring to ambulances or hospital facilities, and they may also be exposed during live rescue operations when helicopters are required to hover overhead. This results in exposure to high noise levels and significant downward pressure. The initial scope covers three helicopter types, assessed in possibility three geographical areas, to understand typical noise levels and exposure profiles. The study may be extended depending on initial findings. Part 2: Noise Risk Assessment for Marine Surveyors During Vessel Inspections Marine Surveyors frequently access high noise environments such as engine rooms, generator spaces, and other machinery compartments during vessel inspections. Although hearing protection is currently provided, the MCA requires a clearer understanding through dosimetry measurements of: • the cumulative noise exposure experienced over time, and • whether existing hearing protection remains suitable and sufficient. Part 3: Assessment of Noise Exposure from Headset Use in Rescue Coordination Centres Rescue Coordinators in JRCC and MRCC centres use communication headsets continuously, sometimes for extended periods (over one to two hours) depending on the duration and complexity of rescue missions. Staff have reported concerns related to constant static noise and the potential impact on their long term hearing. The MCA seeks to determine: • the cumulative level of noise exposure from headset use, and • the associated risk to employee hearing health. This questionnaire is intended to furnish the MCA with the key information it requires to plan a fair and open procurement for this service, including: • Market appetite for participating in a tender process.

Environmental Enforcement Agency

London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham Council (the “Council”) is seeking feedback from suitably qualified and experienced environmental enforcement providers to inform the procurement of an Environmental Enforcement Agency service. The service will support the Council’s Law Enforcement Team (LET) through the targeted enforcement of environmental offences across highways, parks, and open spaces including littering, highway obstructions, and Responsible Dog Public Space Protection Order (PSPO) offences. The provider will supply trained, uniformed enforcement officers operating across London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham (LBHF) to address priority issues identified by the Council, issue Fixed Penalty Notices (FPNs), undertake public engagement activities, manage initial complaints, and prepare prosecution case files where required. The proposed contract term is two years with the option to extend for up to a further two years. The Council currently intends to procure the service on the basis of a revenue-sharing model, under which the provider will bear the operational costs of service delivery, and the Council will receive a share of the income generated from paid FPNs. This Preliminary Market Engagement (PME) exercise is being undertaken to enable the Council to receive views from the market on: 1. What information, requirements, or elements of the procurement the market would require in any procurement documents published, to enable submission of a strong and competitive bid; 2. The Council’s proposed revenue share model and the approach the Council should adopt to its commercial (price) assessment, what alternative options might be beneficial, and the reasons for this; and 3. What details the Council should assess as part of its technical (quality) and commercial assessment as part of this procurement process.

Data Management Solution for Train Service Specification Data

Network Rail is developing an Access and Use Policy that will set out how Great British Railways (GBR) will make decisions regarding access to GBR infrastructure for train operations. GBR will record these decisions in a new document called the ‘Infrastructure Capacity Plan.’ Network Rail is seeking a data management solution that could enable GBR to manage the train service specification data that will inform, feed into and support the Infrastructure Capacity Plan. GBR will require a data management solution to store and manage train service specification data, supporting the objective of establishing and maintaining a published Infrastructure Capacity Plan. The solution will also need to hold data about proposals to amend the Infrastructure Capacity Plan, and to manage change controls and auditing of the data. The solution should also support a clear relationship between service specification data and detailed train schedule data, enabling users to understand how proposed and approved specification changes relate to individual train schedules in the timetable and data held in other operational systems. For clarity, GBR will be responsible for developing and maintaining the Infrastructure Capacity Plan, including populating, editing and governing the data held within the solution. The supplier would be expected to provide the data management capability, not to own or determine the underlying train service specification decisions. Network Rail is developing this capability to support future GBR readiness and requires suppliers to consider both immediate implementation needs and long-term operational requirements. Please see the Request for Information document attached to the opportunity listing in Bravo for further information.
