## Summary

The Communities and Housing Investment Consortium Limited (CHIC), based in Birmingham, has issued an update to their Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) titled 'CHIC Furniture & Floor Coverings - Dynamic Purchasing System [DPS]'. This procurement process falls under the industry category of Furniture (CPV code: 39100000) and is part of the goods procurement. The DPS, which originally began on 11th December 2020, has been amended and will end by 27th October 2028, according to the transitional and saving regulations set out under the Procurement Act 2023. The DPS is accessible to all current and future CHIC members, including various Registered Providers of Social Housing, Local Authorities, government departments, charities, and other public contracting authorities across the United Kingdom.

This DPS offers a significant opportunity for businesses involved in furniture and floor coverings to secure contracts with an estimated value of £80,000,000 (excluding VAT). Companies of all sizes, particularly those specialising in furniture supply and services, could greatly benefit by becoming part of this system. The DPS is structured to allow multiple suppliers, and there is no guarantee of exclusivity or volume, enabling diverse participation. Organisations interested in joining this DPS can expect periodic reviews at 12-month increments, giving them the flexibility to adapt to potential changes in the system.
