## Summary

The South East Consortium (SEC) is launching a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for Construction and Development Works, running for four years, with a closing date for the tender period on 19th September 2028. This procurement targets the construction industry, including site preparation, new builds, and various construction categories with values ranging from under £500,000 to over £50 million. The procurement process follows a restricted procedure, ensuring compliant and efficient selection mechanisms. SEC Procurement Limited is the contracting authority, and the DPS will be accessible to all corporate members and other public bodies that meet the requirements set by SEC Procurement Limited. The initiative aims to facilitate collaboration in delivering quality construction services and adheres to the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 and The Procurement Act 2023.

This tender offers substantial opportunities for businesses, particularly SMEs, involved in construction and civil engineering to secure lucrative contracts in diverse regions. The five distinct categories provide flexibility, allowing firms to match their expertise and capacity with project requirements. Suppliers can adjust their regional coverage throughout the DPS duration, accommodating business growth and market adaptations. By joining this DPS, businesses can benefit from streamlined procurement processes, increase their market presence, and establish long-term working relationships with public sector partners. The use of an electronic portal ensures that the procurement process is efficient and accessible, opening doors for new entrants and established firms alike to compete and grow within the public sector construction market.
