Yes, but in a simplified way consistent with the principle of proportionality. Items that are mandatorily procured through PS-DBM (e.g., commonly used supplies and equipment listed in the DBM Procurement Service catalog) should still appear in your Market Scoping Form so that they are properly documented as part of your requirement.

For these items, however, the Market Scoping does not need to be extensive. The Procuring Entity can simply cite the PS-DBM catalog price, reference, or availability as the basis for costing and sourcing. This ensures that:

• The item is still reflected in your Market Scoping and PPMP;
• The costing is traceable to an official PS-DBM reference; and
• The requirement is properly consolidated into the APP.
