    "description": "PCS-T is used to conduct this tender, the project code is 25897. It is a mandatory requirement that potential framework participants agree to support the concept, provision, and ongoing development of community benefits provision in relation to this framework. Potential framework participants are required to agree to this mandatory requirement. They are also requested to provide a summary of the community benefits that have recently been delivered within Scotland, and also what impact and outcomes these have achieved. Potential framework participants are required to summarise any proposed community benefits that will be developed and delivered as part of this contract if successful or, alternatively, potential framework participants confirm that they will engage with the NHS Scotland's Community Benefits Gateway. This gateway, developed through requests from suppliers seeking opportunities to support the delivery of community benefits within the contracting region, provides information on community benefit opportunities. The CBG is a free and easy to use online service that connects NHSS suppliers with 3rd sector community organisations within Scotland and will be used for tracking and reporting and is an approved compliant route to the realisation of community benefits. The buyer is using PCS-Tender to conduct this ITT exercise. The Project code is 25897. For more information see: http://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/info/InfoCentre.aspx?ID=2343 The Contracting Authority does not intend to include a sub-contract clause as part of community benefits (as per Section 25 of the Procurement Reform (Scotland) Act 2014) in this contract for the following reason: N/A Community benefits are included in this requirement. For more information see: https://www.gov.scot/policies/public-sector-procurement/community-benefits-in-procurement/ A summary of the expected community benefits has been provided as follows: Mandatory CB Question The Scottish Model of Procurement aims to secure the maximum economic benefit from the GBP10 billion spent by the public sector on goods and services each year, through an approach that balances the business friendly and the socially responsible. The Public Procurement Reform Programme delivers value that goes beyond savings and benefits - improving supplier access to public contracts, particularly for SMEs; maximising efficiency and collaboration; and placing the local, social and economic aspects of sustainability at the heart of the purchasing process. The Procurement Reform (Scotland) Act 2014 has established a national legislative contract for sustainable public procurement that supports Scotland's economic growth through improved procurement practice - and requires public bodies to consider how their procurement activity can improve the economic, social and environmental wellbeing of the authority's area. It also specifically requires public bodies to consider imposing community benefit requirements as part of a major contract; these might relate to, for example, employment opportunities or to sub-contracting opportunities. An extract from the relevant section of the Act is at Annex A. Prior to secondary legislation being introduced to implement the provisions of the Act and the transposition of the three new EU procurement Directives, maximising the impact of Scotland's procurement spending will remain front and centre in our considerations. Examples of Community Benefits Community activity - investment in buildings, resources, facilities, (new or repair), human resources Supporting education, learning, schools - school visits, presentations, providing resources, factory / site visits, education, training and learning Employment - supporting via apprentices, employing unemployed, training, skills development, supporting return to work Economic - support SMEs, 3rd sector / supported business indirectly, directly or via sub-contracting (SC Ref:754999)",
