## Summary

The Scottish Government is extending its Telephony Services Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for an additional three months, from 21 December 2021 to 31 March 2022, to accommodate ongoing procurements while a new DPS is being established. The procurement falls under the telecommunications services category, with a total estimated value of £10,000,000. The procurement method employed is selective, and interested suppliers can apply to join the DPS, while existing suppliers need not reapply. The tender period concludes on 30 March 2022, with the invitation date for the second stage set for 31 March 2022.

This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses specialising in telecommunication services or related fields, such as IT and network infrastructure. Firms that excel in technical solutions and offering competitive pricing would be particularly well-positioned to participate. With community benefits incorporated into the procurement process, businesses can also align their proposals with local needs and potentially secure further contracts through subsequent individual call-offs from the DPS.

## Notice

The Authority is further extending its Telephony Services Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for a further 3 months until 31 March 2022. This short extension is to cover in-flight procurements whilst the replacement DPS is being established. The DPS will remain open for new suppliers to apply to join. However, existing suppliers that are currently on the DPS do not need to re-apply and will remain on the DPS.
