Telephony and Communication Services Dynamic Purchasing System

The Authority is further extending its collaborative Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for Telephony and Communication Services for an additional 24 months until 27 March 2028. Accordingly, suppliers that are currently on the DPS are required to refresh and resubmit their Single Procurement Document (SPD) in order to remain as a DPS supplier.

There is no need to resubmit any case study evidence for current suppliers. Failure to do so will result in current suppliers being removed from the DPS.

Full details of the requirement can be found on a previous Contract Notice which was issued on 17 February 2022, details as follows: Reference No:FEB441070 OCID:ocds-r6ebe6-0000672959 Suppliers must complete the Single Procurement Document (SPD) Scotland and meet the minimum entry criteria, detailed within this Contract Notice, to be established on the DPS.

Due to the wide and diverse nature of this lot, it is not possible to list all the types of services envisaged. Suppliers must have at least 12 months experience delivering the types of services within this lot.

Please provide details about the services you can provide under this lot including at least 2 relevant case study examples from the last 3 years. Examples from public and/or private sector may be provided.

Please try and be as clear and concise as possible and preferably within 2 sides of text on the relevant case study evidence form. Do not include hyperlinks or embed files to this response and ensure acronyms are explained in full.

Note: at least two case study examples are required for each lot. A copy of the case study evidence form can be found at section 4C.1.2 of the Single Procurement Document (SPD) Scotland within Public Contracts Scotland – Tender (PCS-T).

The form should be downloaded, populated with relevant case study examples and uploaded. Suppliers can apply for either or both lots.

Suppliers should be aware there is not a requirement to provide all services within this lot, applications can be submitted for discrete elements of the services. Additional information: Economic operators may be excluded from this DPS if they are in any of the situations referred to in Regulation 58 of the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015.
