The Council intend to make provision for the Service divided into 5 Lots under a PDPS taking advantage of significant flexibilities provided under the LTR. CCS guidance on LTR defines "Pseudo" as a practice in the LTR that inevitably looks and feels similar to the provision prescribed in the main rules in PCR 15, but is not substantively subject the formal procedural rules under PCR 15. Therefore, for the avoidance of doubt, requirements of Reg 34 of PCR 15, ('Dynamic purchasing systems: General features') do not apply to this public contract. Service Providers may be appointed to the PDPS under one or more Lots. New applicants may be appointed throughout the lifetime of the PDSP. Please see tender documentation for further details.
