Summary of the contracting process

The Somerset NHS Foundation Trust has completed a selective tendering process to appoint a Scrum Master to support a three-month pilot of an agile team. This procurement falls under the recruitment services category and is located in the South West region of the United Kingdom. The procurement process, which initiated as a tender, has now reached the award stage. The key dates include the tender period ending on 27th June 2024, the contract starting on 1st July 2024, and concluding on 28th September 2024. The total contract value is £28,800 GBP, with ARCA Resourcing Ltd being awarded the contract on 28th June 2024.

This tender provides significant opportunities for companies specialising in recruitment and agile project management, particularly those familiar with Scrum methodologies. It is especially suitable for businesses that can support short-term, high-impact projects. While the specific tender did not target SMEs or VCSEs, other specialised firms can consider similar future opportunities to engage with public sector organisations like NHS trusts. The method used—selective procurement via a framework agreement—emphasises the importance of being recognised on similar frameworks to increase opportunities for winning contracts.
