Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Department of Health and Social Care procured contingent labour from an interim financial accountant. The requirement is for temporary personnel services supporting the department’s financial accounting work. Delivery is based at the department’s Victoria Street site in London, with the procurement covering the United Kingdom. This is a services requirement rather than a goods supply or construction project. The buying organisation is the Department of Health and Social Care, which uses the service for its own financial and operational needs. The scope is focused on one interim accounting resource, so it is most relevant to accountancy recruitment firms, specialist interim staffing providers and financial professionals able to supply suitably experienced temporary finance personnel.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to ROBERTSON BELL LTD on 14 July 2026. The award value is £70,200. The contract runs from 21 July 2026 to 22 January 2027. The tender submission deadline was 20 July 2026 at 12:00. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement, rather than an open standalone competition. The published requirement was evaluated through the framework call-off process. The selected supplier is a small or medium-sized enterprise. The opportunity was treated as a single requirement, with no separate lots or alternative awards identified.

This award demonstrates demand from the Department of Health and Social Care for interim financial accounting support supplied through a public-sector framework. Businesses seeking comparable work would need access to qualified interim financial accountants and the ability to manage contingent labour engagements for a central government department. Credibility would depend on demonstrating relevant financial accounting experience, reliable candidate identification and screening, and the capacity to provide a resource promptly for a defined assignment. Suppliers should also be able to operate within framework call-off arrangements and meet public-sector onboarding, compliance and contract-management requirements. Specialist accountancy recruiters and interim finance providers are the closest commercial match.
