PLACE059 Passenger Transport DPS Pre-Launch Consultation

Derbyshire County Council (DCC, the Council) have developed a new 5 lot Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) to replace the current 3 DPS's for all long-term passenger transport needs. This DPS shall provide transport commissioned by the Council to meet all eligible passenger’s needs, its statutory duties and strategic planning for transport services. This DPS shall provide the Council with a procurement mechanism to tender its transport requirements within Derbyshire and for journeys/services which may commence, or end, outside of the county. As part of the development of this DPS, the Council wishes to consult with both its Operator base and the wider market on the proposed DPS documentation to ensure a smooth transition process from the current DPS, to this new DPS which is scheduled to go live in December 2022.
