East Midlands-based civil and structural engineering firm BSP Consulting has been appointed to the EEM (Efficiency East Midlands) Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS).
The Nottingham-based company, which also has offices in Derby, Leicester and Sheffield, has been accepted to provide consultancy services to members of the not-for-profit consortium which offers efficiency savings for the public sector.
This is the latest in a number of frameworks that BSP Consulting has been appointed on, including the recently announced Circle Health Group Professional Services Framework.
The EEM Ltd Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) runs for five years until December 2026 and marks the 21st framework that BSP is currently on – either on its own or collectively with industry partners.
BSP Managing Director Carl Hilton said: “We are very pleased to have secured a place on another framework. The EEM Ltd DPS shares with BSP Consulting a commitment to its local communities and economies that it serves.
“We look forward to offering our civil and structural engineering services to the public sector bodies that are members of the EEM consortium. It’s a sector that we have wide experience of working in, both in the East Midlands and beyond.”
EEM Ltd is a ‘not for profit’ consortium set up to generate cashable and non-cashable efficiencies for its membership through collaboration, aggregated volumes, quality products and high level of service delivery. Since 2010, EEM and its members have worked together to deliver comprehensive yet simplified procurement solutions, which offer a wide range of compliant, competitive and high-quality products and services.
Its members include housing associations, local authorities, education providers, NHS trusts, government agencies, emergency services and charities from across the UK.
A Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) is similar to a framework, except new providers can join at any time.
The framework position was secured by BSP business development manager Carrie Booth, who said: “This is great news for BSP Consulting and our associates. It’s also good news for our public sector clients who will be able to procure our services through the DPS.”
