The contract period will commence on 12 August 2024 and conclude on 12 February 2025, with a total contract value of £48,090 GBP. Notable dates include the tender period's end on 1 August 2024 and the award publication on 22 November 2024.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in recruitment services to grow their client portfolios and gain prestige by associating with a reputable organisation like the Post Office. Recruitment firms, particularly large-scale ones with the capacity to deliver high-quality service within set deadlines, are well-suited to compete for such contracts. Although the participation of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs) was not emphasised in this case, future related procurements might consider these entities, opening further business possibilities.
