Summary of the contracting process

The Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) has completed the procurement process for the supply of Criminal Enforcement Staff as contingent labour. This selective procurement was conducted through a call-off from a framework agreement, targeting the supply services of personnel, including temporary staff, under the CPV code 79620000. The service is needed in multiple locations in the United Kingdom, including London and the East of England. The contract period is set from 12 January 2026 to 11 July 2026, with a total value of £130,000 GBP. The award was active and published on 29 March 2026, with the supplier being HAYS SPECIALIST RECRUITMENT LIMITED.

This tender represents a substantial opportunity for large-scale recruitment agencies specialising in supplying contingent labour for enforcement and regulatory roles. Businesses with expertise in temporary staffing services in the healthcare and regulatory sector will find themselves well-suited to compete in similar procurements in future engagements with MHRA or other similar regulatory agencies. Although small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSE) were not deemed suitable for this particular contract, established recruitment firms can leverage their large-scale operations to gain additional business growth and strengthen their presence in the public sector staffing market.
