Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process led by UK Shared Business Services Limited has been completed for the requirement of a Temporary Senior Project Manager to support UK Research and Innovation. This contract was managed under the Crown Commercial Services Framework RM6160 for Non Clinical Temporary and Fixed Term Staff, with the procurement method being a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The contract period began on 31 March 2021 and extends until 31 March 2027, with services deployed across the United Kingdom. Classified under CPV code 79620000, the services encompass the supply of temporary personnel, specifically targeting the provision of a Senior Project Manager. The contract's total value increased due to several variations, culminating in £961,079.37 by the latest update on 6 July 2026.

This procurement offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in the supply of temporary personnel, particularly those experienced in delivering project management services. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) were particularly encouraged to participate, highlighting the government's support for smaller businesses' growth within the public sector market. Companies like Sanderson Government and Defence Ltd, which secured this contract, exemplify the ideal candidate profile—a supplier with a strong operational base in the UK, able to scale resources efficiently to meet specific project demands as required by UK Research and Innovation. This contract underscores the demand for specialised services in project management and offers potential avenues for businesses aiming to establish a foothold in governmental contracts through competitive frameworks.
