The purpose of the SEDPS is to make it easier for National Highways, our supply chain and other public bodies to purchase goods and services from Social Enterprises. The use of a DPS is to further National Highways' commitment to social value as detailed in the National Highways Social Value Plan which focuses on the support of social enterprises specifically. A link to the plan can be found below. [nationalhighways.co.uk](https://nationalhighways.co.uk/media/tdog2fma/ccs0622297296-003_social-value-strategy-report_final.pdf) For the first 12 months, the SEDPS will be open for use by any organisation that provides works and/or goods and/or services directly to National Highways (i.e. any organisation who has a live contract with National Highways at the point of accessing the SEDPS). After 12 months, the SEDPS may be made available to any organisation that indirectly provides works and/or goods and/or services to National Highways (i.e. any organisation who has a live contract with a supplier to National Highways at the point of accessing the SEDPS). The SEDPS is open for use by Public Bodies for the full duration of the SEDPS that are identified in the following link [gov.uk](https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations) and also Local Authorities in England who are identified in following link [local.gov.uk](https://www.local.gov.uk/our-support/guidance-and-resources/communications-support/digital-councils/social-media/go-further/a-z-councils-online) If you are a Social Enterprise and are interested in applying to join the SEDPS, or would like further information, please contact the National Highways Procurement Team at or visit our webpage below.
