We endeavour to make it easy to work with ourselves and our public sector partners and our solutions are available to access through Frameworks, which offer call-off methods of direct award or further competition, or Dynamic Purchasing Systems with the call-off method of further competition.
What's the difference between a Framework and a DPS?
Framework
Fixed number of Suppliers appointed to Framework following competitive tender.
Call-off options:
- Direct Award
- Further Competition
Framework rates set as establishment of Framework
Restricted to appointed Framework suppliers
Dynamic Purchasing System
Suppliers can join DPS at any time
Call-off by Further Competition only
Pricing established for requirement at Further Competition
No restriction to number of suppliers on the DPS
This video provides you with an overview of our approach by understanding your project requirements and then developing tailored procurement solutions to create value, efficiency and delivering excellence.
A Framework is established with a defined number of suppliers appointed following a competitive tender process. It is a closed arrangement, and no new suppliers can be added once established. Call-off from a Framework can be by Direct Award or via a Further Competition with all suppliers appointed to the Framework. A Framework is limited to 4 years duration.
A DPS uses a two-stage procedure. The first stage is used to appoint suppliers meeting selection criteria to the DPS. This is open for new suppliers to join throughout the term of the DPS. The second stage is Further Competition to award individual contracts. Each Further Competition is conducted with all suppliers on the DPS (in relevant category). There is no restriction on duration of a DPS although Prosper solutions usually run for 10 years.
