DYNAMIC PURCHASING SYSTEM (DPS) FOR CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTORS & SUB - CONTRACTORS

The DPS will cover the requirements for the Council, TGHC and their partner organisations where there is a need to source external support from Construction Contractors and Sub-Contractors to provide the works and services across various trades and/or disciplines.

The DPS will consist of Categories of trade disciplines (complete with individual category requirements/accreditations) which Construction Contractors and Sub - Contractors will apply to be appointed/included. Once appointed to a category all Contractors and Sub - Contractors will be included in any/all future call-offs under that category by way of a further competition.

Construction Contractors and Sub-Contractors who are appointed to the DPS MUST carry out the main element of the works required under any call-off made under the DPS and will not be permitted to sub-contract any of the main elements of the work packages, It is therefore, envisaged that the proposed DPS will consist of Construction Contractors and Sub Contractors and NOT Principal Contractors. The Council and TGHC will look to utilise alternative procurement solutions if Principal Contractors/Contracting are required. Submission = Electronically via the e-tender system https://procontract.due-north.com Suppliers must submit one copy of their Questionnaire electronically, with any additional documents required or requested.
