Warwickshire County Council currently commissions external graphic design services through an existing framework arrangement that is due to expire at the end of 2026. As the Council's communications needs have evolved, there is now a requirement for a broader range of creative and content services, including graphic design, video and film production, photography, copywriting, campaign development, and animation.

This exercise is being conducted solely to gather market intelligence and does not form part of any formal procurement process. Participation in this engagement will not confer any advantage in any future procurement opportunity.

The Manchester Piccadilly area (the 'study area') is of national strategic significance, serving as a major gateway to Manchester city centre and the Greater Manchester city region and beyond. Anchored by Piccadilly Station, the district is set to evolve into a world-class, highly productive, and connected destination. Manchester Piccadilly station serves as a central transport hub for the city, and is at the centre of the planned Northern Powerhouse Rail ('NPR') network. Manchester City Council ('the Council') strongly believes that the optimal solution for the proposed NPR station at Manchester Piccadilly is for an underground through station, which would unlock the full potential of the study area, maximising transport connectivity and the long-term economic and social benefits of investment. The Council is seeking to appoint a consultancy team to provide a SRF for the study area (building upon the previous Manchester Piccadilly SRF), based around the anticipated growth opportunity and connectivity benefits provided by the NPR and other investment proposals, aligned with the Council's ambitions and policies. This work should review, and incorporate existing, and update new regeneration areas within the study area. While the study will concentrate on the 'Piccadilly Central' and the 'Ardwick' areas, a key aspect of this commission will be to integrate and harmonise the outputs of the Manchester Piccadilly SRF with those of the adjacent and related SRFs, to produce a coherent, comprehensive and integrated strategy, which can maximise economic and social benefits. Further information is provided in the Specification. This Procurement is being conducted in accordance with the Procurement Act 2023 and Procurement Regulations 2024, using the Open Tender Procedure. The documentation published with this opportunity describes how the procurement will be conducted, including details of the associated procurement timetable and award criteria and how to respond to this opportunity. Suppliers are strongly encouraged to read the documentation including the appendices and all other documentation published as part of this Invitation to Tender, as failure to comply with the information in the documentation may result in exclusion from the Procurement and/or the rejection of any submission. Manchester City Council invites tenders for the provision of the Services, from organisations with relevant experience and technical ability to demonstrate sufficient capacity for providing the Services. It is intended for the contract to commence 18 January 2027. The estimated total value of the opportunity is £250,000 (including Work Packages 1-4) over the total contract period although Suppliers should note that this is only an estimate to give Suppliers an idea of the potential scale of the opportunity. Bidders should ensure that their proposed team collectively possesses all relevant skills, qualifications, experience and resources necessary to deliver an adoptable Strategic Regeneration Framework, in line with the Specification. Where all required expertise is not held within a single organisation, bidders may wish to consider forming appropriate consortium, joint venture, or subcontracting arrangements. Where a consortium, joint venture, or subcontracting arrangement is proposed, bidders should clearly identify the proposed structure, the role and responsibilities of each organisation, and how the combined team will provide the requisite expertise and capacity to successfully deliver the contract. It is envisaged that the contract will be awarded to one (1) lead provider or consortium.

North Yorkshire Council are considering creating a framework for Grant Administration Services to support the effective delivery of grant programmes where appropriate, across a wide range of themes. The Council may receive grant funding that is required to be awarded within a set timeframe. This funding, often from government sources, usually needs to be allocated and spent quickly. It is important to set up schemes promptly while ensuring proper governance is in place. The Council is therefore considering a framework to enable them to appoint providers to administer, distribute and manage grant schemes on their behalf. Over the last two years, the Council has paid third parties approximately £250,000 to allocate 4 grant schemes. This information is provided for indicative purposes only in the context of this RFI. The amount of grant funding awarded to North Yorkshire Council varies on a year by year basis and there will be no guarantee of workload, volume, or spend under this Framework. The Framework would cover the whole grant lifecycle, ensuring funds are distributed efficiently, compliantly, transparently, and in line with programme objectives, relevant legislation, and funder requirements. Each call off would specify the exact elements required.
The Authority has a need for assurance vetting of Ocean Tankers under contract to the Authority, either directly, or obtained by fuel Suppliers for delivery to the Authority’s sites under the Authority’s fuel supply contracts. The Authority has two ships on long term charter, which provide the majority of the Authority’s fuel transport requirement. These ships will require annual TMSA. The Authority also takes some fuel consignments under Delivery Duty Paid (DDP) conditions. Under DDP, the supplier of the fuel is responsible for delivery, which normally involves that company chartering a ship on the spot market. The Authority therefore requires an expert provider of vessel risk evaluation services to provide a vetting service. The estimated contract duration for this requirement is 5 years and will run from Februrary 2027 until February 2032. UK1 Pipeline Notice Reference - ocds-h6vhtk-06d67a
