The Mayor and Commonalty and Citizens of the City of London
Liverpool City Council is committed to becoming an actively anti-racist organisation and to creating a workplace where all employees feel safe, valued, respected and able to thrive. Feedback from employees and the Council’s wider anti-racism engagement has identified a need for specialist support for colleagues affected by racism, racial discrimination, microaggressions and cumulative racial trauma. The Council is therefore undertaking soft market testing to explore independent, confidential, culturally competent and trauma-informed support that employees can access whether or not they pursue a formal complaint. The exercise will help the Council understand market capability, potential delivery models and indicative costs. It is being conducted for information-gathering purposes only and does not constitute a tender or commitment to procure.
Warwickshire County Council is exploring the potential commissioning of a Social Care Provider Relationship Management Tool to strengthen how the Council engages with, understands and manages its local social care provider market. The Council works with a wide range of social care providers across different service areas, including regulated and non-regulated provision. Effective provider relationship management is essential to supporting market sustainability, understanding provider capacity and pressures, improving communication, monitoring risks, and ensuring that commissioned services continue to meet local needs and statutory responsibilities. At present, information about providers, quality, performance, risks, engagement activity and market intelligence may be held across different systems, teams and processes. This can make it more difficult to maintain a single, consistent view of provider relationships and to use information proactively to support commissioning, contract management, quality assurance and market shaping activity. The Council is therefore interested in understanding whether there are digital tools available that could help provide a more coordinated, efficient and intelligence-led approach to provider relationship management. This may include functionality such as provider records, contact management, engagement logs, risk and issue tracking, quality and performance information, market intelligence, reporting, dashboards, and integration with existing Council systems where appropriate. The purpose of this preliminary market engagement is to understand the range of solutions available, how they are currently being used in social care or comparable sectors, the extent to which they could meet the Council’s requirements, likely implementation considerations, support models, interoperability, data security arrangements, and indicative costs. This engagement will help the Council assess the maturity of the market, identify potential delivery options, understand any risks or constraints, and inform whether a future procurement exercise would be appropriate.

National Highways is working in collaboration with the Office for Zero Emission Vehicles (OZEV), a joint unit between the Department for Transport and the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero, to strengthen electricity network capacity to selected motorway service areas (MSA) in England through the Strategic Charging Infrastructure (SCI) Scheme. The transition to zero-emission vehicles is expected to drive significant growth in demand for electric vehicle (EV) charging at MSAs. This will require a visible and functional charging network across the motorway network to support current and future EV drivers and provide confidence when undertaking long-distance journeys. However, at several locations, the deployment of charging infrastructure is constrained by the existing electricity network capacity. In some cases, the cost of grid upgrades to meet future demand is not commercially viable for industry and represents a key barrier to the provision of additional EV charging infrastructure. The SCI Scheme will support the development of a strong open-access (can be used with any EV vehicle regardless of manufacturer) EV charging network across the motorway network by strengthening electricity network infrastructure to selected MSAs where investment is not commercially viable. The resulting network capacity will then be available to firms installing EV charging at the site at a subsided and commercially viable price. An indicative allocation of £190 million has been made for the scheme. Enabling civils works, such as land preparation and substation housing, to ensure all funded sites meet a minimum standard at adoption and connection stage, may also be within scope of the packages where required. Further details are provided within a separate scope document that can be accessed via this link: https://highways.sharepoint.com/:f:/s/NationalHighwaysProcurement-MaterialforExternalRelease/IgDtJCSl2pP2R7XoJFkawLs4AWlSqYeOoUX2WNXcMEkbYWM?e=iZisZL Following completion of Phase 1 Pre-Market Engagement, which focused on understanding supplier capability, National Highways is undertaking Phase 2 of Pre-Market Engagement to seek supplier feedback on potential delivery, packaging, commercial, evaluation and route to market options for the SCI Scheme. The objective of this engagement is to gather market feedback that will help National Highways refine its approach to best support the effective delivery of the SCI Scheme, whilst maximising market participation, supporting private sector investment, and delivering value for money. The questionnaire for interested suppliers to complete is available via this link: https://forms.cloud.microsoft/e/P3t3TXQUUN. The information provided in response to this questionnaire will be collected, processed and stored solely for the purposes of designing and progressing the SCI Scheme. The information provided in the response to the Pre-Market Engagement questionnaire will not constitute a formal tender response and will not be used to evaluate suppliers as part of any future procurement process. Responses will be used solely to inform the development of the SCI Scheme procurement strategy, including the delivery, packaging, commercial and route-to-market approaches. National Highways thanks you for taking the time to complete this questionnaire. This pre-market notice will be open for a calendar month, ending on 30 October 2026. Should suppliers have any difficulty with the questions or accessing any of the documents, please send an email to the [email protected] inbox.
