A procurement tool introduced by the UK Procurement Act 2023 that enables a contracting authority to establish and maintain an always-open list of suppliers who meet specified conditions for membership. It is not a contract itself; instead, buyers run competitive procurements among eligible members for individual contract opportunities. Dynamic Markets replace the Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) used under the Public Contracts Regulations 2015.
