Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the role of Data Operations Manager, designated RM6160, is conducted by UK Shared Business Services Limited for UK Research and Innovation. Located in Swindon, England, the buying organisation has completed a selective procurement process using a direct award from the CCS RM6160 Non-Clinical Temporary and Fixed Term Staff Framework. This award notice highlights that Sanderson Government and Defence Limited in Bristol has been awarded the contract to supply personnel services, including temporary staff, under CPV classification 79620000. The contract spans from the original start date of 31 July 2023, with multiple variations extending until 30 September 2026, to accommodate evolving service requirements.

This tender provides substantial growth opportunities for businesses specialising in personnel services, particularly those adept in managing temporary and fixed-term staff. As the procurement method involves a selective call-off from a framework agreement, businesses already part of this framework are strategically positioned to leverage and extend engagements through direct awards. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) may find this contract particularly accessible, given the suitability criteria favouring such entities. The procurement's progression from planning to award stages denotes potential iterative updates that SMEs can navigate to expand service offerings or deepen collaborations with key governmental entities. Businesses aiming to penetrate or expand within the UK service sector can benefit from aligning their strategic offerings with similar framework-based procurement processes.
