A flexible alternative route to market - a DPS is an open ended electronic system, meaning new suppliers can join at any time throughout the duration.
CHIC has a comprehensive DPS, offering a wide selection of categories across all service areas. Contract selection and awards under the DPS must be via a competitive mini tender. CHIC will support and guide members during the tender process, all run through the CHIC eSourcing portal.
Advantages to using CHICs DPS:
- Contractors and suppliers can join the relevant category at any time.
- If leaseholder consultation is required for a project or programme, then the DPS still enables an efficient route to market.
- CHIC agrees with each member the level of engagement they require.
