The London Borough of Barnet is commissioning a sole service provider to deliver Countryside Management Operations for a contract lasting three years, with an option to extend for an additional year. The operations are divided into six discrete Lot areas, covering access maintenance on bridleways and rural paths, meadow management, rural verge grass cutting, hedge maintenance—including flail cutting—, ditch, culvert, land drainage and revetment works, and bespoke ad‑hoc tasks that may arise throughout the term. Each Lot is marked out with a clear schedule of work, notably requiring first cuts in May or June, second cuts in August, and, where applicable, a third cut in November or an additional harvesting period in October, all of which are to be completed within specified windows to preserve the visual and ecological quality of the countryside.

The selected provider will be responsible for executing these activities to meet the Borough’s maintenance standards and care of rural infrastructure. The provider must manage access routes, control vegetation growth to maintain sightlines, conduct hedge and verge trimming according to designated cut schedules, and execute site‑specific maintenance of ditches, culverts, and drainage structures, with adjustments agreed upon with the Authority. All work must comply with local environmental and safety regulations and meet the specified cutting schedules and vegetation maintenance standards.

East Riding of Yorkshire Council is seeking applications from care agencies to join its Supported Living Open Framework. This framework will be utilized for the commissioning of all supported living schemes and substantial care packages contracted through the council.

The procurement focuses on securing high-quality supported living services for individuals who require significant assistance with daily living activities. Successful applicants must demonstrate a commitment to delivering person-centered care that is outcome-focused and tailored to individual needs.

Essential requirements include registration with the Care Quality Commission (CQC) or its successor body, maintaining CQC registration without serious compliance issues, and achieving a "good" or "outstanding" CQC inspection rating. Alternatively, agencies with a "requires improvement" rating may be considered if demonstrable action is being taken to address identified shortcomings. The framework operates on an open basis, allowing suppliers to apply at any time. Applications are evaluated annually or when the council identifies an urgent need for a specific provider. It is important to note that joining the framework does not guarantee any level of business. The initial contract period spans from 01/03/2025 to 31/03/2033, with options for three 24-month extensions. The estimated total contract value is £700 million. This procurement adheres to the Light Touch Regime under the EU Public Contracts Regulations 2015.

Suppliers wishing to participate must demonstrate proven experience with the OutSystems Platform, providing at least two distinct examples for each Lot they intend to join.

Successful candidates will be required to meet stringent quality, health & safety, environmental, and cyber security standards.

Cyber Security accreditation from a recognized third-party organization (e.g., Cyber Essentials, ISO 27001:2013) is mandatory.

The DPS will utilize electronic workflows for ordering, invoicing, and payments. New suppliers can join the DPS throughout its lifespan, making it an ongoing opportunity for businesses specializing in OutSystems solutions.
