The Framework of Choice by the NHS in England Simon Corben
Lot Structure, Key Features, Benefits & Outcomes Andrew Mitchell and Graham Bell
P 2020 Framework – Lot Structure The framework will be divided into lots as shown in the following diagrams. By way of background, an options appraisal was undertaken in support of the lotting structure and examined the relative advantages and disadvantages of a range of delivery model options (including of course, the current way in which the service is delivered). The lotting rationale was driven by a number of factors, subsequently feeding into the evaluation criteria such as: Geographical difficulties associated with a national provision for smaller value projects Regional commercial variations such as cost indexation A procurement approach which does not create barriers to SME’s A robust mechanism for delivering larger value projects such as those identified within the Health Infrastructure Plan for transformational and new build projects 9
P 2020 Framework – Lot Structure • Desirability – the degree to which each option might meet the strategic objectives and priorities of stakeholders (NHS E/I, NHS/DHSC) by taking account of the balanced scorecard (PPN 09/16) and Social Value themes such as: • • • More Local people in employment Ethical Procurement and Social Value embedded within the supply chain Sustainable travel Environmental impact and Air pollution reduced Improved resource efficiency around § Local labour § Reduced travel 10
Lot 1 – Regional Lots aligned to NHS E/I £ 0 m - £ 24. 99 m • North of England (North West, North East & Yorkshire) • Midlands & East of England • South of England (South East & South West) • London 11
Lot 2 – National Lot £ 25 m - £ 99. 99 m 12
Lot 3 – National Lot £ 100 m + 13
P 2020 Framework - Key Features • Not merely a “Design and Build” Contractor • A “Healthcare Solutions provider” that identifies and delivers Healthcare Solutions who manages an integrated supply chain that can collaborate with the DHSC and NHS (and Social Care) Clients that delivers: § Master/Strategic Planning § Business Cases § Design § Construction (New Build or Refurbishment) § Minor Works Programmes § FM or other specialist advice to support Master/Strategic Planning, Design and Construction decisions § Capital and operational cost efficiency savings for the NHS (and Social Care Clients) whilst providing the above • PSCPs and their Supply Chains understanding of current and developing DHSC Policy (and Guidance) and healthcare delivery is essential to support the above 14
P 2020 – Key Benefits P 2020 will build on the success of P 22 and will provide the following key benefits: • Our aim with NHS E/I is for P 2020 to be the framework of choice for the NHS, Social Care Sector and Contractors alike • Significant changes proposed from P 22 including the addition of Regional Lots • Rapid access to high quality Principal Supply Chain Partners (PSCP’s) and their supply chains with proven track records of delivery across the works and service categories in the Health Sector • End to end support and a quality assured process. Monthly project reporting and monitoring • A single consistent method for the delivery of a rolling programme of funded individual capital projects and schemes • Mini-Competition and Direct Award • Updated and clear call-off procedures, templates and guidance 15
P 2020 Framework – Key Benefits • Standard components and repeatable rooms • Flexibility in the use of target cost and lump sum contracts using NEC 4 • Client/PSCP gain share mechanism • Free Training in the use of the Framework and call off process • Open book accounting • Challenging KPI’s including social value targets and targeted spend with SME’s • Latest Fair and Prompt Payment Provisions • Minimum standards for environment and sustainability • Building Information Modelling and CDM compliance 16

Commercial, Pricing and Contractual Approach David Low
P 2020 Framework – Framework Agreement and Call – Off Contracts • Bespoke P 2020 Framework Agreement and Schedules in plain English • Clients can choose from the NEC 4 contract identified on the next slide. Clients will identify their choice of NEC 4 contract at the commencement of any call-offs under the framework • The NEC 4 has been selected as this complies with the Infrastructure and Projects Authority “Common Minimum Standards for Construction” (CMS) – March 2017 • The NEC 4 contract is used through design, construction and post completion. The contract develops through the project stages to provide a comprehensive single agreement • NEC 4 Z clauses will be used to provide specific requirements of clients. The number of Z Clauses will be kept to the minimum with due regard to IPA/CCS standard set of boilerplate amendments • Bidders processes, systems and procedures relevant to the NEC 4 contract will be evaluated within the Invitation to Tender and used in subsequent call-off contracts where relevant 19
NEC 4 Engineering and Construction Contract (ECC) – Call-Off Contract Options NEC Contract NEC 4 ECC Option A: priced contract with activity schedule NEC 4 ECC Option C: target contract with activity schedule NEC 4 Engineering and Construction Short Contract Consideration is currently being given to the following options depending on NHS E/I and NHS client demand: NEC 4 ECC Option B: priced contract with bill of quantities NEC 4 ECC Option D: target contract with bill of quantities NEC 4 ECC Option E: cost reimbursement contract 20
P 2020 Framework – Pricing Mechanism Priced Element Framework Award 1. NEC 4 fee percentages PSCPs can offer a reduction to the Based on contract options and lot, fee % submitted at framework regional pricing within national lots award 2. Hourly design rates for PSCPs and PSCMs Bidders will be able to price for regional variation within national lots 3. Preconstruction Services (PSCP/PSCM constructor) 4.

P 2020 Framework – Typical Questions & Answers P 2020 Commercial & Contract Questions We welcome feedback on any part of the commercial and contractual proposals but have included specific questions in the supplier questionnaire relating to: • How to allow for regional pricing within lots • Any items which should be excluded from the pricing of the NEC fee % • Suggestions on simplifying the agreement of monetary values for contractors liabilities on call-off contracts • Alternative suggestions on the contract choice through the relevant project stages 22
