London and Quadrant Housing Trust (L&Q) is seeking to establish a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for subcontractors specializing in groundwork, reinforced concrete framing, external works, and piling. This DPS will support L&Q's self-delivered new build projects across London and the South East of England. The DPS will be divided into Lots based on project value: up to £2 million and above £2 million.

The procurement process involves a two-stage approach. Initially, interested subcontractors must submit a Pre-Qualification Questionnaire (SSQ) demonstrating their capabilities and experience in the specified areas. Successful submissions will grant access to the DPS. Subsequently, L&Q will conduct mini-competitions for individual projects, inviting only capable providers from the DPS. During these mini-competitions, shortlisted subcontractors will be required to submit detailed tenders based on the specific project scope.

The establishment of this DPS aims to provide L&Q with a pool of qualified and experienced subcontractors for their new build projects. It offers subcontractors the flexibility to opt-in for individual projects that align with their capabilities and capacity. The transparent mini-competition process ensures fair and objective selection based on project requirements.
