Summary of the contracting process

National Wealth Fund Limited procured subscription-based human resources research services, covering access to HR insights, analysis and diagnostic tools. The requirement is a specialist information and advisory subscription rather than physical goods, construction or general staffing services. The service is intended to support the buyer’s HR-related research and decision-making needs through access to Gartner’s research resources and associated diagnostic tools. Delivery is for the United Kingdom. The procurement is categorised as services, with subscription services as the stated classification. The buyer is based in Leeds, England, while the service requirement itself applies across the UK. The opportunity was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, although the selected supplier is Gartner UK Limited, a large organisation.

This procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. National Wealth Fund Limited selected Gartner UK Limited on 30 June 2026. The award value is £109,854, and the contract runs from 1 July 2026 to 30 June 2028. The procurement used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender submission deadline was 30 June 2026. The contract covers the same subscription-based HR research services and access to HR insights, analysis and diagnostic tools. Gartner UK Limited is the only recorded awarded supplier. The award is active, and the contract period matches the stated procurement requirement. The process was identified as suitable for SMEs and not reserved for voluntary, community or social enterprises.

This award demonstrates demand from National Wealth Fund Limited for specialist, subscription-based HR research rather than one-off consultancy or general recruitment support. Suppliers well placed for a comparable requirement would need an established library or platform of credible HR research, practical analysis and diagnostic tools, together with the capacity to provide reliable user access and ongoing support across the UK. Relevant businesses include HR intelligence providers, workforce analytics firms and specialist research subscriptions that can help an organisation assess people issues and make informed decisions. SME suitability indicates that a smaller specialist provider could be credible if it can offer comparable depth, service continuity and user support. The selected supplier’s profile also shows that large, established research organisations compete for this type of work.
