Works will be procured from a range methods, from dayworks to quick quotes for works up to 50,000 GBP and open procurement for works between 50,000 GBP and 2,000,000 GBP or where there is limited competition.
How Tenderoo reads it
This is a dynamic purchasing system (a dynamic market under the Procurement Act): suppliers can apply to join at any point while it runs, and work is awarded in rounds to the members. A missed deadline is not the end of it.
The notice reads as suitable for a small or medium-sized firm: the scope, value and requirements are within reach of a business of that size.
