Procurement for Housing seeks to establish a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for compliance services and associated works. This DPS will encompass seventeen distinct categories of services, addressing various aspects of building and property compliance. These categories include Heating Servicing and Maintenance, Electrical Testing and Maintenance, Access Control, Fire Risk Assessments and related fire safety measures, Asbestos Surveying & Testing and Removal, Mansafe systems, Lift Installation & Servicing, Legionella Testing & Treatment, Japanese Knotweed & Invasive Plants Removal, and Radon Testing & Monitoring.

The DPS framework allows contracting authorities to define specific requirements, delivery models, pricing structures, and contract forms at the Invitation to Tender stage. This approach ensures a high degree of customization and flexibility, enabling suppliers to tailor their offerings to meet individual project needs.

The DPS is intended for an initial duration of five years with the option for a further five-year extension. It is accessible to a broad range of contracting authorities, including current and future members of Procurement for Housing, registered providers of social housing across England, Wales, and Northern Ireland, public authorities as defined by the Freedom of Information Act 2000, local authorities as per the Local Government Act 1972, Housing Arm's Length Management Organisations, and wholly owned subsidiaries of these entities.

Forensic Investigation & Evaluation services are provided through Lot 3 for general investigations and Lots 4A-J for specific case evaluations. These evaluations include Cell Site Analysis, Image Enhancement, Video Production, Image Comparison (faces, clothing, vehicles), Audio Enhancement, Analysis, and Voice Comparison.

The Department for Science, Innovation & Technology, through UK Shared Business Services, is establishing a Services Dynamic Purchasing System to enable government departments and arm‑length bodies to procure a wide range of scientific research and advisory services. The DPS will operate until either its advertised value of £9 million is reached or 23 February 2029, whichever occurs first, and suppliers can join at any time during this period by submitting an application on the Jaggaer eSourcing Portal. Successful applicants will be added to a live DPS list and will then have access to a series of mini‑competitions that allow the contracting authorities to award specific research or advisory contracts for topics ranging from chemistry, biology and health research to physics, metrology, materials science, environmental science, astronomy, and computational science.

Suppliers are required to demonstrate in their application that they possess the capability, either through in‑house laboratory facilities or other means, to deliver agreed research or advice in at least one of the broad scientific areas identified by the Department. Information security must be addressed as part of the application, with evidence of suitable policies or certifications, but Cyber Essentials or equivalent accreditation is not mandatory. The DPS is intended to simplify access to specialist scientific expertise for government decision‑making, providing an efficient procurement mechanism that eliminates the need for suppliers to invest in dedicated IT infrastructure or to navigate complex procurement procedures each time a new research need arises.
All applicant evidence must include verification of non‑exclusion grounds and minimum selection criteria, and supported documentation must be submitted electronically within 15 working days of receipt.

Warwickshire County Council is establishing a Dynamic Purchasing System for Business Support Services that comprises thirteen distinct lots. These lots cover a wide array of offerings, including start‑up support, general business support, innovation support, access to finance, resource efficiency, employment and skills development, and sector‑specific support for automotive & manufacturing, digital & creative, low‑carbon economy, retail, hospitality & personal care, rural economy, social care, and visitor economy. By opening the DPS, the council allows qualified providers to register and be notified of individual calls for competition that align with each lot, giving them the option to bid on selected opportunities as they arise.

Once admitted, successful providers will engage through the council’s e‑tendering platform, In‑Tend, where all procurement communications must be forwarded via the system’s correspondence function. Registration to In‑Tend is free, and providers who cannot register are instructed to contact the council by email as an alternative. The scope and funding levels of the lots are subject to change over the duration of the DPS to meet the evolving needs of the council and its customers, and providers may choose which calls to respond to without any obligation to bid on every opportunity.

Providers must be registered with the council’s e‑tendering system, In‑Tend, and comply with the council’s procurement policies and dynamic purchasing system requirements.

SEC Procurement Limited is establishing a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for Development and Construction Works. This DPS aims to simplify the procurement process for construction projects across various categories and regions. The system is divided into five distinct project value categories: Site Preparation, New Build & Construction up to £499,999, New Build & Construction from £5 million to £9,999,999, New Build & Construction from £10 million to £49,999,999, and New Build & Construction over £50 million.

Suppliers can apply for inclusion in multiple categories and specify the geographical regions within which they are willing to undertake projects. This regional selection can be modified by suppliers during the DPS lifecycle. Access to the DPS is granted to Corporate Members of SEC Procurement Limited and Public bodies or contracting authorities who sign an Access Agreement as Associate Members.

The DPS framework allows for Further Competition Contracts, with durations potentially exceeding those of individual contracts. SEC Procurement Limited manages the DPS and enters into agreements with successful suppliers.
