Summary of the contracting process

UK Shared Business Services Limited has recently completed a procurement process to appoint a Salesforce Solution Architect, with the final award being published on 13th November 2025. This procurement was not a call for competition but rather a direct award through the CCS RM6277 Non Clinical Temporary and Fixed Term Staff Framework. The contract, valued at £76,846.88, commences on 17th November 2025 and concludes on 31st March 2026. The consulting service falls under the industry category of "Supply services of personnel including temporary staff" and is designated for Swindon, England, specifically at postal code SN2 1FL. The process utilised a selective procurement method, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement, and focuses explicitly on service-based contracts.

This tender offers growth opportunities particularly for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and organisations in the non-profit sector (VCSEs), who have a strong foundation in IT solutions, particularly in Salesforce architecture. Businesses adept at fulfilling temporary staffing needs for high-level IT roles and who can efficiently respond to framework agreements may find such opportunities rewarding. Engaging in contracts like these not only expands business portfolios but also builds client trust with significant public sector entities such as UK Research and Innovation. With UK Shared Business Services Limited acting as the contracting authority, successful suppliers gain visibility and potential future collaborations within the public sector framework.
