In plain English

The UK government is setting up a Dynamic Purchasing Agreement (DPS) to buy marketing, communications, creative services, recruitment advertising and events for central government departments and public sector organisations. Suppliers can register to provide these services on an ongoing basis.

What the buyer wants

• Provide marketing and communications services to government and public sector bodies • Deliver creative services, design and campaign work • Manage recruitment advertising campaigns • Organise and run events for government clients

Likely requirements

Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.

This is a major national framework worth £260m plus: unless you are an established marketing, communications, creative or events agency with proven central government or large public sector experience, you will struggle to be selected. Solo traders and very small firms without relevant track record are unlikely to succeed.

How to bid

This is a Dynamic Purchasing System: an open list of approved suppliers. You can apply to join at any time while it runs, and once accepted you can bid for the individual contracts the buyer runs through it.
