Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement contracting process involves the Government Legal Department, acting as the buying organisation, with the contract titled "Staff Secondment". This procurement falls under the industry category for the supply services of personnel, including temporary staff, and is specifically for the secondment of a staff member from TLT LLP to the Government Legal Department. The procurement method was selective, utilising a call-off from a framework agreement, and the contract was awarded on 25th July 2025. The contract period commences on 28th July 2025 and concludes on 28th January 2026, with the location of service being within the United Kingdom. The full contract value is £45,000.

This tender represents an opportunity for businesses experienced in providing staffing and personnel services to engage in government contracts, although it is not deemed suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs). Larger businesses, particularly those familiar with selective procurement and framework agreements, would find prospects for growth in such governmental collaborations. The awarded supplier, TLT LLP, exemplifies a large-scale firm successful in securing such contracts, highlighting the competitive edge required for similar opportunities.
