The Vending framework is a DPS agreement.
A Dynamic Purchasing System otherwise known as a DPS, is a procurement tool for works, services and goods. A DPS is similar to an electronic framework agreement, but new suppliers can apply to join at any time. Dynamic Purchasing Systems are run as an entirely electronic process and using the restricted procedure.
A DPS is run using a two-stage process. Firstly, during the initial setup stage all suppliers who meet the set criteria will be admitted to the DPS and there is no limit on how many suppliers may apply to it. The second stage of a DPS is where contracts are awarded. The contracting authority invites all suppliers on the DPS or within the relevant category within the DPS to bid for the contract.
