Categorised under recruitment services (CPV code 79600000), the process culminated in the award stage, with the contract awarded on 25th March 2024. The procurement method used was a single contract from SSA. Critical dates include the tender period ending on 2nd February 2024 and the contract period spanning from 11th February 2024 to 30th July 2024. The total contract value is £55,470, with the awarded value documented at £46,225. The postal code for the service delivery address is B15 2TT.

This tender offers significant opportunities for growth, especially for Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs), as the procurement explicitly states suitability for such organisations.

The awarded contract was given to IRG Advisors LLP T/A Odgers Berndtson, a large firm based in London, which underscores the competitive edge required for successful bids in this category.
