Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process conducted by UK Shared Business Services Limited on behalf of UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) involves the supply of an Administrator through a direct award under the CCS RM6277 Non Clinical Staffing Framework, Lot 2 - Corporate Functions. This award notice reflects the completion of the procurement stage, with Reed Specialist Recruitment Limited being awarded the contract to supply temporary personnel services. The contract, valued at £48,765.86, covers the period from 19th February 2026 to 31st December 2026, with the service location specified as the United Kingdom. The procurement method utilised was a selective process with a call-off from a framework agreement. The industry category relevant to this contract is "Supply services of personnel including temporary staff" under CPV code 79620000.

This tender provides robust opportunities for businesses specialising in staffing services, particularly those capable of supplying administrative personnel within the corporate functions sector. Although the procurement was fulfilled via a direct award, frameworks like CCS RM6277 often facilitate entry points for businesses that are part of the framework. Companies already engaged or seeking to engage in framework agreements might consider focusing on niche services such as non-clinical staffing to leverage similar opportunities for growth and expansion. Large scale staffing firms such as Reed Specialist Recruitment, with the capacity to handle significant contracts, can find immediate benefits, whereas smaller firms may aim to position themselves strategically for consideration in upcoming procurement cycles.
