What is being bought
The Authority (FLS) has established a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for Woodland Establishment across Scotland. A Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) is an electronic system used to tender for services with a group of pre-qualified suppliers. FLS uses this system of pre-qualified suppliers to tender for Woodland Creation projects as and when they arise. To submit a bid to join the DPS, suppliers need to submit a Single Procurement Document (SPD) through the DPS project on the Public Contracts Scotland – Tender (PCS-T) website. The SPD is a qualification response form which allows FLS to assess bidders’ suitability, experience, and capability to provide the services which may be required under the DPS. Only bidders that achieve a ‘Pass’ for all questions in the SPD are appointed to the DPS. The DPS comprises 2 Lots; Commercial and Amenity, and Planting and Maintenance. This DPS is extending the validity date from the 31st October 2024 until 31st October 2029. New applications shall be evaluated and the decision communicated within 10 working days.
