Summary of the contracting process

The Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) is conducting a public procurement process for temporary staffing services related to its Covid-19 Communications and MQS Programme. Recent contracts awarded include roles such as a Correspondence Officer and PMO Leads, with contract values ranging from £22,521.73 to £97,384.65. The procurement method used is selective, with these contracts awarded as call-offs from a framework agreement. Key dates include various contract start dates in December 2021, with contract periods extending until March 2022, and the primary location for service delivery is London, United Kingdom.

This procurement process presents opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that specialise in staffing services, particularly those experienced in providing temporary personnel for government communications and project management roles. Businesses capable of fulfilling the requirements for flexible staffing solutions in a high-pressure environment, particularly in the health sector during a pandemic, would be well-suited to compete for these contracts. Engaging with DHSC may not only lead to immediate contract awards but also create longer-term partnerships in providing essential health services.
