## Summary

The public procurement process for the "Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) - Post Mortems and Associated Services" is being undertaken by Lincolnshire County Council, a regional authority located in Lincoln, UK. The tender is classified under the industry category of health and social work services and is currently in the tender update stage as of 28th November 2025. This dynamic purchasing system aims to provide post mortem and associated services and is open to participation from various public bodies, evidenced by its flexible structure which allows other authorities to utilise the DPS for their requirements. The procurement method is selective, involving negotiations, and electronic submissions are required for all tenders.

This procurement offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in health services, particularly those with capabilities in providing secure and supervised post mortem services, autopsies, and related facilities. The DPS structure ensures ongoing opportunities as it covers recurring needs, making it especially appealing for companies with sustained service provision capabilities in medical and mortuary services. This tender process can be an advantageous growth avenue for firms looking to establish or expand their presence in public sector health procurement, especially in regions like Lincolnshire and possibly beyond, given the DPS's potential extension to other authorities.
