Summary of the contracting process

UK Shared Business Services Limited procured temporary personnel services to provide a Data Engineer for UK Research and Innovation. The requirement covers the supply of specialist data engineering capability rather than a wider technology implementation or works contract. It is a services procurement for delivery in the United Kingdom. The arrangement was sourced through the Crown Commercial Service Non-Clinical Temporary and Fixed-Term Staff Framework, indicating a staffing or recruitment-led route to supplying the required resource. The named suppliers are Precision Resource Group Limited and Talent International. The buying organisation is UK Shared Business Services Limited, which manages the requirement on behalf of UK Research and Innovation.

This is a completed award made through a selective call-off from a framework agreement, rather than an open competition. The original award was made on 18 September 2022 to Precision Resource Group Limited for £234,545, covering 19 September 2022 to 31 March 2024. Subsequent awarded variations added Talent International and extended the arrangement: £389,485 to 31 March 2025, £432,975 for the same end date, £615,135 to 31 March 2026, £705,855 to 30 September 2026, and £795,855 to 31 March 2027. The latest award was made on 18 September 2022 and published on 23 July 2026. Evaluation was conducted through the framework call-off route.

This procurement demonstrates sustained UK public-sector demand for temporary data engineering resource supporting a research and innovation organisation. Suppliers well placed for a comparable requirement would need access to suitably skilled Data Engineers, the ability to recruit or present credible specialist candidates, and capacity to maintain delivery over a multi-year period with successive extensions. Experience supplying non-clinical temporary or fixed-term staff through public-sector frameworks would be directly relevant, as would the operational capability to manage placements, continuity and supplier administration. The award went to large staffing or recruitment businesses, so competitors should be prepared to demonstrate comparable scale, candidate reach and framework-compliant processes rather than only individual technical consultancy expertise.
