Notice Title
Dynamic Purchasing System for the provision of Work Focused Activities
Notice Description
The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) intends to establish a system similar to a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) to procure Work Focused Activities in the Jobcentre Plus Central England Group area. The objective being to source:- a greater range of local provision; wide choice of suppliers (including Small, Medium Enterprises [SME's]) and increased value for money for the taxpayer, in a quicker and more efficient way. Potential Suppliers are asked to submit proposals based on a number of categories at Jobcentre Plus District level . Suppliers on the DPS will not be required to deliver in all Jobcentre Plus office locations but they must clearly outline in their application, which delivery locations they will operate the provision in. The DPS is for the procurement of social and other services referred to in Regulation 74 of the Public Contracts Regulations (2015) and as such, the intention is to use a light touch regime, rather than the full regime described in Regulation 34 (Dynamic Purchasing System). The initial period of the DPS (6th July 2015 to 31st March 2016) will be a Proof of Concept, which will be thoroughly evaluated and if successful the DPS will continue until 5th July 2019. The procurement will be managed through our eProcurement Solution. All interested parties should register at https://dwp.bravosolution.co.uk
