Market Engagement: Property Transformation Programme. Workplace Service Management (WSM)

Descriptions

The purpose of this Prior Information Notice (PIN) is to inform the market of a potential opportunity for the provision of Workplace Services Management (WSM) and the Ministry of Justice’s (MoJ) intention to engage with potential providers through a Preliminary Market Engagement (PME) event and subsequent PME activities. The publication of this early engagement opportunity is a voluntary publication and does not represent a commitment by the MoJ to initiate, run or complete a full procurement competition in relation to a contract for the services described. Workplace Services Management will be a managed service that provides the following key capabilities:•Integrated Digital System and management of a Common Data Environment•Performance Management, Analysis and Reporting•Innovation, technology and data•Workplace Support Services•Assurance and Compliance•Contingency Planning and Disaster Recovery•Asset Management•Sustainability and Social Value •Projects and Project ManagementThe Property Transformation Programme (PTP) is planning to transform Facilities Management (FM) across the full HMPPS Prison and Probation estate. PTP may also be rolled out to any other MoJ estate, including potentially HMCTS estate in future. MoJ's estate is continually changing, including in terms of the buildings forming part of the estate and the number and location of those buildings, and will continue to change from the start of and during the life of the contract. PTP is intended to be flexible to accommodate such changes and all buildings within the general description above forming part of MoJ's estate from time to time are potentially within scope of the WSM contract.Without the provision of Facilities Management (FM), our buildings would not be secure, safe, or operational and would therefore not comply with mandatory and statutory requirements. This could put the safety of offenders and MoJ staff, colleagues and stakeholders at risk and result in severe reputational damage for the MoJ and wider government. The current, integrator/in house, FM supplier and MoJ model will be replaced by a new operating model comprising WSM, TFM and the MoJ for the delivery and management of FM services and related activities.The intended five TFM contracts will be competed and procured under a separate procurement exercise. It is the MoJ intention that the TFM requirement will be competed under Crown Commercial Service (CCS) framework RM6232 Facilities Management and Workplace Services. The indicative launch date for the TFM procurement is Nov 24. Continued below.
