Summary of the contracting process

The Department of Health and Social Care procured an extension for one contingent-labour requirement supporting its PPE Contract Dissolution Programme. The work is the provision of temporary personnel to support the programme; the procurement does not identify specific roles or duties. Delivery is associated with the Department’s Victoria Street location in London. This is a personnel supply service rather than a purchase of PPE or a contract to dissolve PPE agreements itself. The requirement sits within the Department’s health and social care remit and relates specifically to the programme’s delivery, so suppliers whose work covers temporary staffing and programme support are the closest fit.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to HATMILL LTD. The Department used a selective route as a call-off from a framework agreement. The award date was 30 September 2026, and the contract runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 March 2027. The awarded value is £64,000. The requirement was described as one extension for contingent labour, with a tender submission deadline of 30 September 2026. The procurement record gives no separate evaluation criteria or lot structure. The stated supplier-suitability settings exclude SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises, despite HATMILL LTD being identified as an SME. The award is active.

For staffing suppliers, this award shows that DHSC has bought contingent labour to support a time-limited programme dealing with the dissolution of PPE contracts. A credible competitor for a comparable requirement would need to supply temporary personnel and demonstrate the capacity to support programme work for a government department. The awarded supplier is identified as an SME, indicating that an SME was selected for this particular call-off, although the tender’s suitability settings marked the opportunity as unsuitable for SMEs. The scope is a single labour extension rather than a broad PPE supply contract, so relevant experience would centre on supplying contingent staff for programme delivery and working within a public-sector framework call-off route. The award provides a concrete example of DHSC demand in this specific area.
