## Summary

The procurement process involves the East Central Territory, which encompasses various public authorities in Scotland, seeking a Private Sector Development Partner to support ongoing projects under a long-term territory partnering agreement with Hub East Central Scotland Limited. The award is classified under the services industry category, with a total estimated value of approximately £1.2 billion. The procurement method employed was a limited procedure without a prior call for competition, and the process is currently complete, with a contract signed on 10 February 2012. This award is pertinent to projects located within the East Central Territory, particularly those impacting public services.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in public infrastructure and community development. Suitable competitors are likely to be large-scale service providers with expertise in construction, project management, and public sector service delivery. The anticipated pipeline of projects, supported by ongoing updates from the Scottish Futures Trust, suggests considerable future engagement possibilities, making this a key area for businesses looking to expand their market presence in the public sector procurement landscape.

On 7,8 and 10 February 2012, as part of the Scotland-wide hub programme, the Participants (as defined below) concluded a territory partnering agreement (TPA) with hub East Central Scotland Limited for a period of 20 years (with an option to extend for 5 years) for the performance of certain partnering services, as set out in the contract notice referenced in IV.2.1 (the Contract Notice). This notice contains further detail of the ongoing use of the TPA in line with the originally advertised scope. The Participants are the East Central Territory, comprising Forth Valley NHS Board, Tayside NHS Board, Fife NHS Board Angus Council, Clackmannanshire Council, Dundee City Council, Falkirk Council, Fife Council, Perth and Kinross Council, Stirling Council, Central Scotland Joint Police Board, Tayside Joint Police Board, the Scottish Ambulance Service, the Central Scotland Joint Fire and Rescue Board, Tayside Joint Fire and Rescue Board and their statutory successors and any organisation created as a result of a reorganisation or organisational change of the contracting authorities.

### Procurement Information

This notice provides an update on progress under the TPA to ensure transparency of the remaining pipeline of projects and to direct interested persons to the ongoing publicity relating to the hub programme. Each project is the subject of a separate Project Agreement which is entered into in accordance with the terms of the TPA. As part of the original competitive procurement process the Contract Notice stated an estimated, cumulative capital value of the projects to be awarded under the TPA being in the region of 143m GBP in the first ten years, and approximately 450m GBP for the life of the TPA including those projects awarded in the first ten years. These were stated to be anticipated values on the basis of then current estimates only. This was an indication of value provided for information purposes. The procurement documents made clear that the initial detail provided of the project pipeline was indicative for information only and that there was no guarantee or commitment as to the facilities that would be developed through the TPA. The full scope and extent of the partnering services and the TPAs was clearly delineated elsewhere in the Contract Notice and in the accompanying procurement documents, and was not linked to or to any extent constrained by the indicative cumulative estimates of value provided. The original competitive procurement process did not envisage that the agreement to be awarded would contain any limit or any other reference to any cumulative or other project values and consistent with that the TPA does not contain any such limit or reference. It is currently anticipated that the overall capital value of projects which may be procured over the next 48 months may extend to an estimated capital value of approximately 550m GBP which would bring the total value of projects award under the TPA to approximately 1200m GBP. The list of potential projects can be viewed by following the link set out in the additional information section of this notice. All such projects fall within the scope advertised through the Contract Notice and the original competitive procurement process. No change to that scope is envisaged and, for the avoidance of doubt no substantial modifications will be made to the terms of the TPA or any Project Agreement. The TPA remains a long term partnering arrangement for the development of public and community infrastructure, and no change is envisaged to the TPA period of 20 years with an option to extend for 5 years.
