Summary of the contracting process

The Construction Industry Training Board, based in Peterborough, UK, has concluded a procurement process for "Permanent Recruitment" services under the industry classification of recruitment services (CPV 79600000). The tender was completed with the award issued on 21 January 2026. The contract is valued at £92,000 and will commence on 31 January 2026, running until 20 January 2028. The geographic scope includes British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, the Rest of the World, and the United Kingdom. The procurement method was labelled as "Other" and was initially marked as a tender initiation type. This process is in its award update stage as of 30 January 2026.

This tender presents growth opportunities for businesses specialising in recruitment services, particularly those capable of providing extensive geographic coverage. While the procurement did not specify encouragement for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), larger entities or those with diverse staffing capabilities would be well-suited for such a contract. The awarded contract to Ivy Rock Partners Ltd suggests that businesses with a solid track record in delivering recruitment services across varied regions would be competitive contenders for similar opportunities.
