In September, the Haringey Music Service, in conjunction with the council’s Strategic Procurement team, is implementing a new Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS), which is compliant with the latest procurement regulations. The DPS will enable Haringey Music Service to procure music tuition in an efficient and cost effective way.
The council currently uses an online DPS platform via its strategic partner adam, which covers a number of different services including care homes and passenger transport.
Once they have completed the enrolment process, peripatetic music teachers will be able to use the DPS to look at teaching vacancies, submit bids for work and process their invoices.
Drop in sessions
The Procurement team is organising a series of drop-in sessions for music teacher during the summer, where team members will be able to help with the enrolment process.
The Music Service does not anticipate the new system will have a major impact on the way it works with schools, but please be aware of the changes in case teachers ask you questions or share any concerns.
If you have any questions or require further information, you can contact the procurement project team via dps-enquiries@haringey.gov.uk
