A DPS offers the most flexibility to meet potential future changes affecting the NHS and wider public sector as new providers can apply to join the DPS at any time during its validity period.

NHS London Procurement Partnership may add further categories later in the lifetime of the DPS. These are most likely to be specialist elements of the main waste streams, i.e. Offensive waste as a standalone or uniform shredding, as possible examples. This will be determined by the needs of our membership and the development of the market.
