Summary of the contracting process

Sheffield City Council has completed a procurement process titled "NEC Reporting Specialist TS July 2026," aimed at acquiring IT consulting services to support the PSR Programme. The procurement falls under the industry category of IT services, specifically focusing on consulting, software development, Internet, and support, with a delivery area in Yorkshire and the Humber, United Kingdom. The process used a direct award procurement method, and the relevant contract was awarded to Gravitas Recruitment Group on 4th August 2026, with the contract period starting on 5th August 2026 and concluding on 2nd September 2026. The total value of the contract is £21,700.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses with expertise in IT consulting and software development, primarily those that have a track record of working with public sector programmes like the PSR Programme. Although the procurement method was a direct award, businesses similar in scale and service offering to Gravitas Recruitment Group may take an interest for future opportunities. Large-scale enterprises, in particular, stand to benefit from positioning themselves for direct award contracts by demonstrating exceptional capabilities and value in relevant government projects.
