Summary of the contracting process

UK Shared Business Services Limited, acting for UK Research and Innovation, procured temporary personnel services to provide a Product Manager. The requirement is for a Product Manager working on a temporary basis, rather than a broader staffing programme or a permanent appointment. The service falls within personnel supply and temporary staffing, with product management expertise as the specific role. Delivery is associated with the buyer’s Swindon operation, in England. This is a service opportunity for recruitment and staffing providers, interim management firms and consultancies able to supply an appropriately skilled Product Manager. The procurement was made through an established central government staffing arrangement, indicating a requirement for a supplier able to support public-sector temporary resourcing.

This procurement is complete and has been awarded. It used a selective direct award as a call-off from the CCS RM6277 Non Clinical Staffing framework, rather than an open competition. UK Shared Business Services Limited awarded the contract to L.A. International Computer Consultants Limited on 21 July 2026. The awarded value is £116,964. The contract runs from 10 August 2026 to 31 March 2027. The tender submission deadline was 20 July 2026 at 10:00. The procurement was classified as services and was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. Evaluation and selection took place through the framework’s direct-award route, with the requirement focused on supplying the specified temporary Product Manager.

Although this contract has already been awarded, it provides a clear reference point for suppliers targeting UK Research and Innovation’s temporary product-management requirements. A credible competitor would need to source and support an experienced Product Manager, understand interim staffing delivery, and provide reliable personnel for a defined public-sector assignment. The opportunity is relevant to recruitment agencies, specialist technology staffing firms and consultancies with access to product-management professionals. The successful route was a direct call-off from the CCS RM6277 Non Clinical Staffing framework, so suppliers seeking comparable work would need an appropriate route to market through that framework or a future procurement. The stated SME suitability indicates that smaller staffing and consultancy businesses can be relevant where they can meet the role and public-sector delivery requirements.
