The establishment of this pseudo dynamic purchasing system (PDPS) was intended to procure these services which fall within the light-touch regime (LTR - PCR 2015 Regulations 74-77).

The contracting authorities make this distinction to avoid implying that they will follow, or be bound by, the full procurement regime under PCR 2015 for this procurement. Future opportunities for organisations to express an interest in this framework will be advertised in January 2020. Potential bidders can request to participate by completing a qualification questionnaire to demonstrate how they meet the stated minimum selection criteria.

Providing that a potential bidder on the approved provider list has been identified as eligible to bid for a particular call-off contract via the PDPS filtering process, and they continue to meet the minimum selection criteria, they will be able to bid for the call-off contract.
