Abstract

The State Hospital is looking for suppliers that as principal security integrators have the skills and evidence backed experience to design, install, and commission a project of this size and complexity. It is a requirement to provide the hospital with detailed information about your experience in this specialist area, working in environments whose access to the site is controlled, tools are monitored and operatives are constantly escorted.

The hospital needs to understand your organisations involvement and resulting successes and evidence based experience from previous works completed. We will be looking for bidder’s to supply information that provides detail of the approach adopted to project management, implementation and the commissioning of resultant works. Bidders should be aware that this project will be delivered within an active live work environment that operates 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. The hospital therefore requires bidding organisations to evidence superior project management, implementation and commissioning skills that will ensure that the security of the State Hospital is never compromised.

Bidders must provide client contact information for any projects that are used as examples or evidence to support your experience and bidders should be aware that The State Hospital will contact the clients you have identified.

Experience provided must relate to any successful delivery of complex integrated security systems set in organisations that make up the Critical National Infrastructure (CNI), High Secure Hospitals, Category A prisons, Government or Military settings in the United Kingdom or a compatible EU establishment. This will be an absolute prerequisite for bidders. Applied standards will be UK derived British Standards and CE EU standards.

Minimum Requirements can also be read in the document repository "visible to suppliers" section available in PCS-Tender Document will be named "Contract Notice

Section III: Legal, economic, financial and technical information

III.1) Conditions for participation

III.1.1) Suitability to pursue the professional activity, including requirements relating to enrolment on professional or trade registers

List and brief description of conditions:

The following narrative explains the definition of the Critical National Infrastructure from the Scottish Governments and Centre for the Protection of National Infrastructure Website:

— The national infrastructure includes those facilities, systems, sites and networks necessary for the functioning of the country and the delivery of the essential services upon which daily life in the UK depends. Within the complex web of infrastructure there are certain critical assets, the loss or compromise of which would have a major detrimental impact on the availability or integrity of essential services, leading to severe economic or social consequences or even loss of life. These are classed as ' CNI' or Critical National Infrastructure because of the severity of their loss to the UK. There are CNI assets located across the UK including in Scotland. The security and resilience of CNI in Scotland, is vital in achieving long term Scottish Government vision of “sustainable economic development and realising a Scotland where our people are safer and feel safer”. (extracted from https://www.gov.scot/Publications/2011/03/21095856/2)

Not everything within a national infrastructure sector is judged to be ‘critical’. The UK government’s official definition of CNI is:

Those critical elements of infrastructure (namely assets, facilities, systems, networks or processes and the essential workers that operate and facilitate them), the loss or compromise of which could result in:

a) Major detrimental impact on the availability, integrity or delivery of essential services — including those services whose integrity, if compromised, could result in significant loss of life or casualties — taking into account significant economic or social impacts; and/or

b) Significant impact on national security, national defence, or the functioning of the state.
