The Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) covers data management and artificial intelligence platforms, licenses, and expert services. The actual procurements are made based on separate calls for tenders within the DPS, where the purchasing unit specifies and describes its detailed procurement needs. The procurement of platforms and licenses may include, for example, a commercial off-the-shelf software solution for data management, software usage rights, licenses and/or an open-source software solution. The scope may also include, for example, tools for data management, data warehouse automation, integration, analytics, reporting and visualisation. The scope of expert services can be specified, for example, in the following sub-areas:

• Data management and AI consulting

• Planning and management of data management and governance projects

• Concept, data and interface modeling as well as architecture definition

• Development, testing, training as well as planning, management and monitoring of ETL processes and integrations

• Planning, development, testing, training as well as planning, management and monitoring of data warehouses, data cubes and data lakes

• Planning, development, testing, training as well as planning, management and monitoring of visualisations and reporting

• Development of analytics, advanced analytics, machine learning and robotics

• User interface and application development (Chatbot etc.)

• Definition and development of cost accounting

• Definition of services, processes and governance models

• Selection, consulting and training of tools used in development

The purchasing unit is not committed to purchasing any minimum quantity in the DPS. A procurement contract concluded within the DPS does not give the supplier an exclusive right to provide the service. In the internal tenders of the Dynamic Purchasing System, the purchasing unit requests a declaration from the tenderer that the tendering company, or the companies or persons in whose ownership, control or direction the tendering company is, or its subcontractor, is not subject to a restrictive measure imposed by the European Union or the United Nations (UN) or a restrictive measure or asset freeze decision imposed by Finnish authorities. The purchasing unit excludes from the internal tendering process those tenderers who do not meet the above requirement. The purchasing unit also has the right to terminate the procurement contract immediately if the supplier is subject to any of the above-mentioned restrictive measures or asset freeze decisions.
