Summary of the contracting process

The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) has awarded a contract for a LinkedIn Subscription, valued at £33,995. This procurement falls under the services category, specifically for time accounting or human resources software. The tender process concluded on 30 November 2021, with the contract commencing on 6 December 2021 and running until 5 December 2022. This contract was initiated through a direct procurement method, classified as a single tender action due to its value being below the threshold.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in human resources software and similar services to engage with public sector requirements. As the CMA seeks to renew its enterprise subscription with LinkedIn, companies capable of providing digital subscription services or related technologies can compete for such contracts in the future. Businesses looking to grow by entering the public procurement market should consider these types of contracts, which are well-suited for larger service providers rather than SMEs or VCSEs.
