The Test and Learn DPS is open ended but now has a nominal end date of 23 February 2029 (the date specified for expiry of DPS's in The Procurement Act 2023 (Commencement No. 3 and Transitional and Saving Provisions) Regulations 2024 (\"Transitional Regulations\")). The Test and Learn DPS Contract can be terminated by DWP with Twenty (20) Working Days' notice. This is a Contract Notice for social and specific services in accordance with regulation 75 of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (as amended). DWP established the Test and Learn DPS to procure these activities in in England, Scotland and Wales on 9 November 2018. 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 DPS was established using a light touch regime. This DPS presents opportunities for organisations, with a focus on innovation and local specialist support, to be involved and test the development of new approaches for employment and health related activity. This will be key to building evidence to support the delivery of future provision at both national and local level. DWP cannot confirm or guarantee any future business through the DPS, but it is anticipated that there will be some limited numbers of proof of concepts / test and learn projects over the duration of the DPS. The T&L DPS is open ended with a nominal end date of 23 February 2029 but can be terminated by the Authority with twenty (20) Working Days' notice. In line with the original OJEU notice, the expected total value of all call-off contracts under the T&L DPS is approximately PS20,000,000. This DPS will be for the use of the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP), its Executive Agencies and those Non-Departmental Public Bodies (NDPBs) sponsored by DWP.
