Dynamic Purchasing System - Housing

Tender description

The London Borough of Lambeth (“the Council”) wishes to run a supplier engagement exercise in anticipation of the procurement and implementation of a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS). The Council’s Resident Services Directorate is in the process of developing a Total Asset Solution. This is aimed at delivering a new approach in recognition of the Council’s need to refresh how it undertakes the management of its assets and delivery of programmes so that the Council better meets its legal and statutory obligations. The Council’s DPS will therefore be a mechanism for it to establish a diverse panel of pre-approved suppliers across various categories and sub-categories of works and services. Once established, whenever the Council requires works that fall within one of these categories or sub-categories, a competition will be undertaken inviting all the suppliers on the relevant category or sub-category, to tender for what is known as a specific contract.
