In plain English
East Midlands Housing Group is setting up a dynamic purchasing system (DPS) to buy construction services for building homes across the East Midlands. They have split this into two separate purchasing routes: one for larger projects above the public procurement threshold, and one for smaller projects below it.
What the buyer wants
• Supply construction labour, materials, and expertise to build new homes in the East Midlands region • Work as part of a pre-approved supplier list where you bid individually for specific projects as they arise • Meet different assessment standards depending on whether you apply to the main (above threshold) lot or the low-value (below threshold) lot
Lots
- Construction dynamic purchasing system (above threshold)
- Construction low value purchasing system (below threshold)
Requirements
What could rule a small business out: You must be able to demonstrate previous housing construction experience and hold appropriate professional indemnity and liability insurance; sole traders or very small builders without verifiable track record may struggle to pass the DPS approval stage, and the estimated £180m total value suggests they expect experienced, registered contractors.
Always check the tender documents.
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.
