An OJEU contract notice (2019/S 228-559692) was published on 22/11/2019 to open pre-qualification for BATS. The DPS has since transitioned from the CTM eSourcing system to a new system: Atamis. Additionally, the estimated total value has increased from £75m to £125m. This Contracts Finder notice has been published to direct the supply chain to Atamis and to communicate the increase to the estimated total figure.

The purpose of the BATS Marketplace DPS is to access a greater breadth of capable supply chain organisations to utilise commonly used business and technical service solutions. The BATS DPS covers professional labour services associated with work packages in support of business delivery. The BATS Marketplace DPS has 13 categories:
1. Business (Change Management / Business Cases / Technical Authors);
2. Commercial (Sourcing / Claims / Quantity Surveying);
3. Full Lifecycle Design & Engineering Services;
4. Environment (Advice / Consultancy / Ecology);
5. Finance (Advice / Taxation / Auditing);
6. Health & Safety (Advice / Consultancy / Specialists);
7. Human Resources (Recruitment / Training / Facilitation);
8. Legal (Advice / Corporate / Contract / Employment / Planning);
9. Portfolio, Programme & Project Management;
10. Programme Controls (Planning / Estimating / Cost / Risk Management);
11. Public Affairs Support (Photos / Reprographics / Marketing / Comms / Events);
12. Quality and Assurance (Assurance / Process Improvements / Management System);
13. Security (Advice / Consultancy / Specialists)

Candidates can apply for pre-qualification against one or more categories to gain access to award stage work packages. Please note that pre-qualification remains open and live for the duration of the DPS, therefore a pre-qualification response can be submitted at any time.

BATS can be accessed via the 'View Live Opportunities' (https://ndasupplierportal.secure.force.com/?searchtype=Projects) option on the Atamis homepage. The record reference is C5590.

Note that the value provided is only an estimate and no guarantee of value or volume of work through the DPS can be offered.
