The tender is classified under the industry category of health and social work services and is currently in the tender update stage as of 28th November 2025. This dynamic purchasing system aims to provide post mortem and associated services and is open to participation from various public bodies, evidenced by its flexible structure which allows other authorities to utilise the DPS for their requirements.
