## Description
Portsmouth City Council (the council) on behalf of Solent Transport is establishing multi-Lot multi-supplier Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) to support the delivery of a Future Transport Zone (FTZ) within the Solent area.
The DPS will be used over time to source a wide range of services, supplies and to a lesser extent works utilising a broad range of contracting forms and financing arrangements which will allow for award via contracts, concessions and grants. 
Award of call off contracts may be via direct award or mini-competition as detailed within section VI.3.
Whilst the establishment of the DPS is driven by the Solent FTZ programme, the agreement may also be used by Solent Transport as well as the Contracting Authorities located within the Solent region as listed within section VI.3 to source related requirements which fall outside of the FTZ programme. 
The DPS may also be extended - subject to issue of a Corrigendum Notice - to cover additional geographical areas and allow access to further Contracting Authorities. 
The target date for operational commencement of the DPS is 12th April 2021. The initial term of the DPS will mirror the duration of the FTZ programme, which is due to end on 30th June 2024.  However, the agreement may be extended beyond this term on a rolling basis in increments to be determined without limitation in respect of number and length of extension periods applied.  
Initially applications are invited against 3 specific Lots only, being:
•	Lot 1 - Marketing and Communication Services 
•	Lot 2 - Consultancy Services
•	Lot 3 - Bike Share Schemes
Establishment of these DPS Lots is required imminently in order to progress the FTZ programme. In addition to the above Lots the following Lots will also form part of the DPS but at present are not open for applications. However, interested suppliers are able to submit expressions of interest in respect of future submission of applications once the Lots are activated and participation in any pre-activation soft market testing exercises. 
•	Lot 4 - Freight
•	Lot 5 - Data Collection
•	Lot 6 - Transport Modelling
Further information in respect of these future Lots as well as additional further Lots relating to personal mobility services which have not been progressed at present due to the impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic are included within section VI.3. 
Suppliers may apply for entry onto the DPS in respect of any or all of the active and future Lots listed above.
The estimated total value of work that could be let via the DPS based upon known FTZ demands in relation to Lots 1-3 plus additional demand from the other named Solent area public bodies is currently approx. £3.8M. 
The value and scope of the DPS is likely to vary significantly over the term through expansion / suspension / termination of established Lots, launching of new Lots, extensions to the term of the agreement and expanding access to further contracting authorities. 
The DPS will be established in accordance with...
