## Summary

National Highways has extended the term for its Social Enterprise Dynamic Purchasing System (SEDPS) intended for the procurement of goods and services, including signage, with the system now set to expire on 14th August 2028. This procurement process operates under the industry category of goods and focuses on social enterprises across England. The system is active and invites organisations to apply, offering a significant opportunity to supply National Highways, its supply chain, and other government departments. The initial tender period began on 14th August 2023, and the extended procurement period offers a substantial timeline up to 2028, making this an ongoing and valuable engagement for interested parties.

This tender represents a prime opportunity for social enterprises seeking to grow their business through long-term collaboration with government entities. The term extension and broad scope of categories—ranging from cleaning services to construction, event management, food and beverage, landscaping, signage, and waste management—ensure a variety of business sectors can compete and benefit. Organisations with strong social objectives and reinvestment principles will find this tender particularly beneficial as it aligns with National Highways' commitment to social value, offering a platform to deliver substantial contributions to community and enterprise growth through a diverse array of goods and services.

## Notice

National Highways is inviting organisations to apply to the Social Enterprise Dynamic Purchasing System (SEDPS) to provide Goods and/or Services to National Highways, our Supply Chain and other Government departments across England. The SEDPS is available to organisations with primarily social objectives whose surpluses are principally reinvested for that purpose in the business or in the community, rather than being driven by the need to maximise profit for shareholders and owners. If you are interested in applying to join the SEDPS or would like further information, please contact the National Highways Procurement Team at socialenterprisedps@nationalhighways.co.uk or visit our webpage below. https://nationalhighways.co.uk/suppliers/becoming-a-supplier/social-enterprises/ The SEDPS is open for use by all Government Agency and Public Bodies for the full duration of the SEDPS that are identified in the following link: https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations, Local Authorities in England and Wales who are identified in following link: https://www.local.gov.uk/our-support/guidance-and-resources/communications-support/digital-councils/social-media/go-further/a-z-councils-online, Local Authorities in Scotland who are identified in the following link: https://www.mygov.scot/organisations, and Universities and educational providers who are identified in the following link: https://www.ucas.com/explore/search/providers?query=.

If you are interested in using the SEDPS or would like further information, please contact the National Highways Procurement Team at socialenterprisedps@nationalhighways.co.uk.

The purpose of this notice is to inform the market that National Highways has extended the lifetime of the SEDPS for a further two years. The SEDPS will now expire on the 14th August 2028.
