Consultancy & Professional Services Dynamic Market
Public bodies buy advice constantly, legal, technical, cost, project management, audit, often below threshold and often in a hurry. This example shows a professional-services Dynamic Market on the eSourcing Data platform: advisers join once, keep their credentials current, and compete in quick, recorded mini-competitions sized to each engagement.
Permanently open under the Procurement Act 2023, no closing date, apply any time.

Conditions of participation
Typical published entry criteria for a market of this kind, proportionate, transparent and assessed the same way for every applicant.

- Professional indemnity insurance at published levels
- Relevant experience with comparable organisations
- Conflict-of-interest declarations kept current
- No applicable exclusion grounds
How the market runs
- Permanently open. Unlike a framework, a Dynamic Market never closes to new entrants. Suppliers can apply to join at any point in its life, there is no missed deadline.
- Assessed within a reasonable time. Applications must be assessed against the published conditions of participation within a reasonable period, membership is an operational process, not a one-off gate.
- Every tender reconsiders applicants. Before each competition, pending applications must be considered. New suppliers are never locked out of upcoming work the way they are on a closed framework.
- Operated end to end. Application triage, compliance monitoring, call-off competitions, award and transparency notices and reporting are run by the eSourcing Data team on the live platform.
