Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "GSS24247 - UKRI Employee Benefits" contract, concluded by UK Shared Business Services Limited, focuses on miscellaneous business and business-related services within the United Kingdom. The procurement stage is now at the award phase, with the contract awarded on 23 July 2024 and published on 22 August 2024. This tender, valued at £70,000, was executed through a mini-competition under the CCS Framework RM6273, following a selective procurement method. The contract period spans from 23 July 2024 to 31 July 2025.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in business and business-related services. It is particularly beneficial for SMEs (Small and Medium-sized Enterprises) looking to expand their portfolio within the public sector. With UKRI seeking to enhance employee benefits, companies with expertise in HR services, employee welfare programmes, and business consulting services are well-poised to leverage this contract for growth. Although SMEs were not specifically targeted for suitability, the awarded supplier, SME HCI Limited (trading as Vivup), indicates that smaller businesses can successfully compete in these tenders.
