Dynamic purchasing system (open to join)

In plain English

The UK government is running a long-term marketplace (called a Dynamic Purchasing System) where approved technology suppliers can sell innovative products and services to public sector organisations. If you're approved as a supplier, government departments will invite you to bid on specific technology projects that match your expertise.

What the buyer wants

• Register as an approved supplier on the Spark technology marketplace • Be ready to respond to tender invitations from government departments for innovative technology solutions • Provide services across one or more of four categories: subject/problem area, delivery method (technology type), geographical location, and security level

Likely requirements

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

This is a technology innovation marketplace, if your business provides traditional trades (plumbing, electrical, construction, cleaning), you will almost certainly be disqualified unless you offer innovative tech-enabled versions of these services.

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.
