Closing Date: 01/02/2015
Value: £22,000
Provision of Support on Operating Chemistry Choices for the GDA of UK ABWR - 1) ONR is undertaking a phased Generic Design Assessment (GDA) of the Hitachi General Electric (Hitachi-GE) UK Advanced Boiling Water Reactor (UK ABWR). Hitachi-GE’s submissions to ONR are similarly phased, providing increasing detail and evidence as the design is finalised and the UK regulatory requirements are better understood. 2) Step 3 of GDA of the ABWR design commenced in September 2014. A key part of GDA is for ONR inspectors responsible for assessing the ABWR design to identify areas where timely input from Technical Support Contactors (TSCs) is required to enable GDA to progress to programme, and to ultimately inform ONR’s regulatory decision on the acceptability of the ABWR design, or otherwise, for construction in the UK. ONR have identified that one such area relates to the operating chemistry choice for the primary cooling system of UK ABWR.

London Borough Of Lambeth - Lambeth - Transforming Our Business By Managing Information
Status: Closed
Published Date: 27/04/2015
Closing Date: 12/05/2015
Value: £25,000
Lambeth - Transforming Our Business By Managing Information - Lambeth Council has an ambitious intention to enable a fully flexible and collaborative workforce in partnership with its citizens and local businesses. This will be delivered within a new physical environment with a planned staff:desk ratio of 10:6 and a physical storage allocation of 0.5 metres per person by 2017. We have non-negotiable plans to downsize significantly over the next 24 and need to help our staff and partners to work in this new environment. One of the key elements in this transformation is ensuring access to appropriate documents at all times and in all locations, through the implementation of a paper-free environment within the council. The council is presently seeking a suitably experienced partner to assist with a time limited exercise to: 1. Document the current situation, 2. Articulate a preferred future state, and 3. Describe the work streams required to achieve this future vision. The following principles have been agreed, and will be used to guide this work: • Location neutral working Staff of the both the Council and appropriate external agencies will be able to access all appropriate documents and management information required to carry out their roles irrespective of physical location. • Minimal paper coming into and exiting the council, no paper within the organization Documents circulated within the council will be in an electronic format. Where paper documents are received by the council they will be transferred to an electronic format at point of entry. Similarly where the council is required to produce paper documents these will be transferred from electronic to paper format at point of exit. All of the foregoing subject to legal and regulatory requirements as appropriate. • Efficiency improvements and cost savings It is essential that the future state releases significant efficiency savings for the council, for example through implementation of workflow processes, and it is anticipated that the council will be seeking a return on investment within 3 years of implementation. The council is not seeking a new technology solution at this stage. Lambeth already has a suite of appropriate technology components that will need to be considered in developing both future vision and recommended work streams, at all times referencing the three principles outlined above. You will be expected to produce a formal report and associated presentation(s) that can be used across the council to explain the agreed future vision and clearly articulate the tasks required to achieve this future state. It is anticipated that the outputs of this work will form the basis of a programme of work that could span some 18 to 24 months. It is anticipated that the council will have discussions with a small number of suppliers, based on initial responses received, before identifying a preferred partner. These discussions are likely to be on 18, 19 and 20 May 2015.

London Borough Of Lambeth - Visioning Vauxhall Cross Development Brief
Status: Closed
Published Date: 23/04/2015
Closing Date: 08/05/2015
Value: £50,000
Visioning Vauxhall Cross Development Brief - To create a Visioning Vauxhall Cross Development Brief. The Brief must be created through a co-production process with the local community, groups and stakeholders. Their ideas of how the improved Vauxhall interchange and bus station design, and parts of the district centre generally, could look and feel in terms of commercial and environmental offer must be captured and illustrated in a visual format. Ideas on how the streets and linkages leading from the interchange could be similarly improved must also be captured and visualised. In essence the Brief should principally be a visual and illustrative document, therefore evolving from the text and mapping that predominate in the Vauxhall SPD. It should translate the Vauxhall community’s ideas on how the new bus station, interchange, public spaces, viaduct and district centre streets, junctions and crossings could look and feel through the use of quality imagery and visuals. The imagery and visuals must be supported with text, mapping and plans that demonstrate how the district centre would operate in terms of its public realm and commercial, environmental and night-time economy offer, with movements of pedestrians, cyclists and buses and connectivity of open spaces, parks and to the river front fully considered. The consultant team must be urban design led, and particularly skilled in visual and imagery creation (no verified views expected). Knowledge and understanding of creating high quality public realm environments that interface with commercial uses within a commercial centre and/or transport interchange environment is essential, and some knowledge and understanding of centres and commercial use requirements. Finally, the Tender must set out a strong and professional approach co-production activity with citizens. Any interested supplier should contact the buyer for the detailed brief and they will have to sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement before receipt.
