Summary of the contracting process

UK Shared Business Services Limited, based in Swindon, England, has recently completed the procurement process for selecting an administrator for UK Research and Innovation. The contract, titled "GSS24690 RM6277 Administrator," falls under the industry category of "Supply services of personnel including temporary staff" with the CPV code 79620000. Conducted using a selective procurement method, the contract was a call-off from a framework agreement, specifically the CCS RM6277 Non Clinical Staffing Framework. The contracting process is in its Award stage, with the award being made to Reed Specialist Recruitment Limited on 13 April 2024. The contract period extends from 23 September 2024 to 31 December 2026, encompassing multiple contract variations. The total contract value, reflecting several variations, amounts to £99,752.25 GBP exclusive of VAT, and services are to be delivered across the United Kingdom.

This tender represents a growth opportunity for companies specialising in non-clinical staffing solutions, particularly large-scale recruitment firms capable of fulfilling personnel supply contracts over an extended period. Engaging in such tenders can help businesses expand their portfolio by securing long-term public sector contracts and enhancing their credibility in the industry. While SMEs and VCSEs were not specifically targeted in this procurement, larger firms with the necessary infrastructure and resource pool are ideally positioned to deliver the requirements set by UK Shared Business Services Limited. Participating in framework agreements like CCS RM6277 allows firms to be recognised for direct awards, thereby simplifying the procurement process and providing steady business opportunities.
