Summary of the contracting process

The Department for Culture Media & Sport (DCMS) has completed a public procurement process entitled "Interim Finance Business Support," which involved acquiring interim contingent labour for financial services. The procurement was finalised with a contract value of £32,175, awarded to Allen Lane Limited. This process was initiated as a tender, with the contract duration running from 2nd August 2021 to 29th October 2021, and the tender period ending on 29th July 2021. The service falls under the business services category for law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing, and security.

This procurement opportunity could facilitate business growth for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) that specialise in providing contingent labour and financial consulting services. Companies that can swiftly adapt their workforce to meet the needs of public sector clients, particularly those experienced in supporting financial services for governmental agencies, would be particularly well-suited to compete in similar future tenders issued by DCMS or other government bodies.
