This is a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) opportunity with an estimated annual value of approximately £3,500,000. The DPS operates under a light-touch regulatory regime, allowing flexibility for providers. Interested suppliers can join the system to bid on education contracts for students requiring alternative placement outside mainstream schools. The council anticipates potential changes to the DPS validity period in the future.
