Summary of the contracting process

The Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust has recently completed a procurement process for the position of Head of Fire Safety, classified under the recruitment services category with CPV code 79600000. This selective procurement, executed via a call-off from a framework agreement, involved a contract value of £10,198. The tender was concluded on 30th June 2026, and the contract is active from 1st July to 1st September 2026. The services are intended for delivery in the South West region of the United Kingdom, specifically Gloucester (postcode GL1 2EL).

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in recruitment services, particularly those adept at providing niche roles in the public sector. Although the principal contract was awarded to BODEN RESOURCE LIMITED, businesses that are aligned with the values of voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) might find such opportunities particularly well-suited. Engaging in this framework can allow companies to build a reputation among NHS trusts and potentially gain further contracts in the area of fire safety and related roles.
