Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Gambling Commission procured procurement consultancy services, classified under CPV 79418000, for delivery in the West Midlands. The requirement is for professional support with procurement activity rather than the supply of goods or construction works. The buying organisation is the Gambling Commission, based at Victoria Square House in Birmingham. This is a services opportunity suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, although participation was not reserved for voluntary, community or social enterprises. The named requirement was “Procurement Consultant” and the service was described as procurement consultancy services. Businesses considering comparable work for this buyer should therefore have a clear focus on public-sector procurement advice and delivery, with the ability to operate in or support activity across the West Midlands.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Consultancy Plus on 18 June 2026. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from the YPO Management Consultancy & Professional Services Framework Agreement, reference YPO 1141. The tender submission deadline was 18 June 2026 at 17:00. The awarded contract value is £223,402, with an estimated tender value of £223,402 and a minimum estimated value of £223,000. The contract period runs from 22 June 2026 to 21 March 2027. Consultancy Plus is the selected supplier. The procurement was evaluated through the framework call-off process; the published information identifies procurement consultancy services as the requirement but does not set out separate quality or price weightings.

This award demonstrates established demand from the Gambling Commission for specialist procurement consultancy delivered at a substantial single-contract scale. A credible competitor for comparable work would need experienced procurement consultants able to advise and support a public-sector regulator across the full requirement, with sufficient capacity to deliver a defined consultancy engagement in the West Midlands. The successful route was a call-off from the YPO Management Consultancy & Professional Services Framework Agreement, so framework appointment and the ability to compete through that route would be commercially important. The opportunity was marked as suitable for SMEs, indicating that a smaller specialist consultancy could be well placed if it can demonstrate relevant public-sector procurement capability, dependable delivery resources and the governance needed for work with the Gambling Commission.
