This procurement process falls within the business and management consultancy services category and is classified as a service. The procurement method employed was selective, utilising a call-off from a framework agreement. Key dates include the tender period ending on 5th February 2026 and the contract period beginning on 16th February 2026 and concluding on 1st October 2026. The award for this contract was published on 10th March 2026, with Efficio Limited appointed as the supplier for this consultancy service, valued at £149,766 GBP.
