Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for "CHIC Commercial and Domestic Appliances - DPS" is conducted by the Communities & Housing Investment Consortium ltd (CHIC), based in Birmingham, United Kingdom. It involves an amendment notice to an existing dynamic purchasing system (DPS) previously published in 2018, and the expiry date for this DPS has now been extended to 23rd February 2029. This extension follows transitional regulations associated with the Procurement Act 2023. The procurement falls under the goods category, specifically targeting domestic appliances, and remains accessible to all UK public-sector bodies and CHIC members. CHIC acts as a central purchasing body facilitating this procurement stage, which remains in the tender phase, ensuring ongoing participation opportunities for relevant businesses.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in domestic appliances to collaborate with various Registered Providers of Social Housing, Local Authorities, and other contracting bodies across the UK. With an estimated value of £50 million excluding VAT, businesses can leverage this dynamic purchasing system to expand their reach within the public sector, presenting potential growth avenues for manufacturers and suppliers in the domestic appliances industry. The DPS allows flexibility as there is no exclusivity or guaranteed volume under its contracts, enabling participating businesses to pursue other contractual arrangements concurrently. Regular reviews and possible amendments, including termination, add another layer of opportunity for businesses to remain adaptive and responsive to market demands in alignment with the procurement requirements.
