Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for Recruitment Advertising & Communications, initiated by the Highways Agency, involved the provision of advertising and communications services specifically for Highways England. This tender falls under the services category, particularly involving business services related to law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, and security. The contract was valued at £339,510 and was active from 26 January 2016, concluding on 25 January 2018. The contract period started on the same day as the tender’s end date, and was geographically purposive, covering delivery to locations including the British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, and across Europe, among others.

This opportunity presents significant potential for businesses operating in marketing, recruitment, and consulting fields, particularly those with expertise in transportation or infrastructure communications. Businesses capable of delivering targeted advertising strategies and communication solutions may find this a particularly lucrative area to compete in. Given the high-value nature of the contract and the established presence of a strong supplier like TMP Worldwide, new entrants or SMEs with innovative strategies and effective delivery mechanisms could also leverage this existing demand to significantly enhance their market position.
