Grant Fund Manager Dynamic Purchasing System

The Scottish Government are creating a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for Grant Fund Managers. It is anticipated that any future grants given by the Scottish Government that will require a grant fund manager and suit the scope of the DPS will be procured via this DPS. It is however, not guaranteed that every grant fund manager procurement will be conducted via this DPS. To allow suppliers to hear more information regarding this DPS a supplier event will be held on Wednesday 18th October 1pm - 2.30pm. During this session, there will be an overview presentation of the DPS background and the bidding process that suppliers will need to complete, an information gathering session via anonymous polls and finally a Q&A which will be gathered, anonymised and distributed to all after the session. The supplier event will help the Scottish Government have a greater understanding of the marketplace and gather the potential number of interested suppliers within the industry prior to publishing the Dynamic Purchasing System. Please note that the anticipated value of the DPS will be based on the value of fund manager services, not the value of the fund itself and not be confirmed until contract notice stage. The value stated is only an estimate over the 5 year DPS duration and there is no guarantee that the full value will be utilised.
