Summary of the contracting process

The Crown Commercial Service (CCS), acting on behalf of the UK government, is leading a procurement process with the intention to establish a Dynamic Purchasing Solution (DPS) for income generation across estates, assets, and Intellectual Property (IP). This comprehensive agreement titled "Income Generation from Estates, Assets & IP" is under the industry category of services and will cater to a broad spectrum of public sector bodies all over the United Kingdom, including central and local governments, healthcare, education providers, devolved administrations, and charities. The procurement stage is currently active, with selective procurement employed through a restricted procedure. The total estimated value of this agreement is £700 million, and the timeframe spans from August 2028 until September 2028, following an optional extension now utilised to end by 15/09/2028. Suppliers have the opportunity to participate via mini competitions that will be held throughout the duration of this agreement.

This tender initiative creates excellent opportunities for businesses focusing on areas such as self-service vending, commercial advertising, brand licensing, and commercial sponsorship. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) along with voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are particularly encouraged to compete, as the procurement process is explicitly designed to be inclusive. Businesses involved in automated retail, battery charging solutions, recycling equipment, and marketing services will find this DPS especially attractive for potential growth. This offers significant revenue opportunities for companies willing to provide innovative services in the evolving public sector landscape.
