Description

Translink intends to create a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for Bus and Coach Parts. The DPS is being created under Regulation 52 (Dynamic Purchasing System) of the Utilities Contracts Regulations 2016.

Total Quantity or Scope

This notice is to initiate an early market engagement exercise. It does not indicate the start of any formal procurement exercise. Translink wishes to engage with the market to seek out expertise and conduct market/product research to ensure that the best possible offer is presented to the marketplace. … A DPS gives Translink the flexible ability to offer smaller and more nimble baskets of goods to preapproved Economic Operators and to cut down on the time to approve the award of these goods. Separate specific procurement exercises (mini competitions) will be published at the appropriate point in the future. Parties with whom discussions have been held will be required to submit their applications to be involved in the respective procurement(s) in the normal manner. The DPS will run for an initial period of five (5) years with the option to extend for any period up to thirty-six (36) months. It is anticipated that the DPS will be open for initial expressions of interest towards the end of Q1 2024 with a view to issue the first mini competitions during Q2 2024.
