OPW introduced a streamlined procurement system to improve
delivery called a “Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS)” which is like
a framework agreement except that during its life other economic
operators (suppliers) may, if they meet the published criteria, join
the system. Using a DPS provides a simple and straightforward form
of access to contracts for suppliers. When applied appropriately, it is
a cost effective method that can limit the need for complex tender
processes and benefit both supplier and tendering organisation
