Estates & Facilities Consultancy Dynamic Purchasing System

NHS London Procurement Partnership (LPP) are inviting applications from experienced suppliers of Estates & Facilities Consultancy Services to be appointed onto a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) to provide high quality services to health and public sector organisations.

The DPS is a two-stage process. The first stage will see invitations to participate issued to selected supplier categories in three successive waves. There will no limit on the number of suppliers that may join the DPS for each service category. New suppliers can also apply to join the DPS at any point during its lifetime.

Individual contracts are awarded during the second stage. In this stage, approved users of the DPS (referred to as Contracting Authorities) will invite all suppliers on the DPS for the service category and location required to bid for a specific contract. During the DPS validity period, a Contracting Authority will be able to search for Potential Providers that match their requirements using: work category, location of project, value of project and any other criteria deemed necessary and available within the standard search criteria Each Contracting Authority will be allowed to issue a Capability Assessment as part of its Mini-Competition to establish a final supplier list to invite to tender. It is also possible to combine categories where there are clear synergies and common industry precedents.

The type of services that may be procured under the DPS may include but are not limited to those services identified by CPV code and summarised in section II.2. The precise limit and extent of every potential service however, cannot be clearly defined at this stage.
