Summary of the contracting process

UK Shared Business Services Limited has completed a procurement process to source a temporary administrator for UK Research and Innovation, detailed under the tender title "CSP25224 - Administrator". This process falls under the industry category of supply services of personnel, including temporary staff (CPV: 79620000), and was conducted through a selective procurement method as a call-off from the CCS RM6277 Non Clinical Temporary and Fixed Term Staff Framework. The location for the service is Swindon, England (postal code SN2 1FL). The contract was awarded to Reed Specialist Recruitment on 24th July 2025, with a contract period from 28th July 2025 to 28th July 2026, and a total value of £54,396.64.

This tender represents significant business growth opportunities, especially for service providers specialising in temporary staff supply. While the contract has been awarded, similar future opportunities could appeal to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) given their suitability for such procurements. Businesses specialising in non-clinical temporary staffing who are adept at quickly mobilising personnel within the United Kingdom framework agreements may find similar contracts advantageous to pursue.
