Published requirement description

CHIC publishes this Notice of an Amendment to be made to the DPS in pursuance of the original Notice 2023/S 000-026541 published on Find a Tender Service on 7th September 2023.

CHIC, as a central purchasing body, gives notice that under the transitional and saving regulations set out under the Procurement Act 2023, that this dynamic purchasing system and qualification system established under the Public Contract Regulations (PCR) 2015 must come to an end by 27th October 2028. Any contract awarded under this DPS will continue until it comes to an end and be managed under PCR 2015. (even if the dynamic purchasing system or qualification system has terminated prior to that point).

The DPS remains accessible by CHIC members, both current and in the future, and may be used by all Registered Providers of Social Housing, Local Authorities and all other contracting authorities that are located in the United Kingdom (“Customers”), including those listed in Schedule 1 of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015/102, and any other organisation that may falls within the definitions of Contracting Authority or carrying out a regulated procurement.

  • Housing Associations
  • Local Authorities and Government Departments
  • Registered Charities
  • NHS and Health and Social Care Groups
  • Emergency Services
  • Schools and Academies/Colleges and Universities
  • Libraries and Museums

The DPS is available to all current and future members of CHIC, a public sector consortium with a list of members available from: www.chicltd.co.uk/members ↗

The estimated value of contracts to be awarded through the DPS during this period remains at approximately £250,000,000 excluding VAT. Any estimate of value is for information purposes only. Therefore, please note that there will be no form of exclusivity or volume that is guaranteed under the DPS and Members will be entitled to enter into other contracts and arrangements with other suppliers.

CHIC invites organisations to participate in this DPS for the remaining term, although we reserve the right to review the DPS at 12 month increments whereby the authority can amend (shorten, terminate) the DPS pursuant of PCR regulation 34(28).

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 40 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 4 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
  • “CHIC Fire Protection and Sprinkler Systems - Dynamic Purchasing System…” is a dynamic market: the contest is a place on its panel, not a single contract.

Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
