FSF Dynamic Purchasing System 2 For the Provision of Work Focused Activities

Department for Work and Pensions · All their open notices

What this is

The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) operates the Flexible Support Fund Dynamic Purchasing System 2 (FSF DPS 2) to procure Work Focused Activities for Jobcentre Plus Districts across England, Scotland and Wales. The DPS covers social and other services under the light touch regime (Regulation 74) and is for DWP's sole use. Having migrated to the Atamis eProcurement Solution, DWP is reissuing the notice; online applications are currently suspended and a temporary offline process (via email) is in place while suppliers still register an Atamis account.

Key points

  • Estimated overall DPS value GBP 250,000,000
  • Light touch DPS for work-focused activities; sole use of DWP across England, Scotland and Wales
  • Online applications suspended; apply offline by emailing cdfsf.adhocprocurement@dwp.gov.uk via Atamis

Who can bid

Any supplier wishing to provide work-focused activities may apply to join. Applicants must create an Atamis supplier account; because online applications are suspended, a temporary offline process applies (email request to receive the relevant information). The DPS is for the sole use of DWP.

How it is scored

Operated under the light touch regime for social and other services (Regulation 74) rather than the full DPS regime; call-off contracts are awarded to onboarded suppliers. No specific quality/price weighting stated for joining the DPS.

Money

Estimated overall value of the DPS is GBP 250,000,000. Individual call-off contracts detailed in award records typically range from a few thousand to under GBP 100,000 each.

How to submit

Register and create a supplier account via the DWP Atamis landing page (https://dwp2.my.site.com/s/Welcome). To apply while the online route is suspended, email cdfsf.adhocprocurement@dwp.gov.uk to request to join.

Contract period

FSF DPS 2 took effect 1 November 2021 (replacing the FSF DPS that expired 31 October 2021); it remains open for suppliers to join. Call-off contract durations vary by task.
