Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the project titled "CSP26474 - RAL Space Management Accountant" was conducted by UK Shared Business Services Limited, located in Swindon, England. This procurement falls under the industry category of Supply services of personnel, including temporary staff, with the primary focus on services. The process reached the award stage on 27th May 2026, following the completion of the tender period that ended on 19th April 2026. The contract duration spans from 20th April 2026 to 20th October 2026, with a total contract value of £35,206.68. The procurement method employed was selective, specifically a call-off from an established framework agreement.

This tender represents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in personnel supply, particularly management accountants who can provide temporary staffing solutions. Companies suitable for this opportunity are likely to be those engaged in recruitment within the non-clinical staffing sector, particularly those with framework agreements with public sector entities. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) have a favourable capacity to bid for similar contracts, given the government's emphasis on SME engagement, although the award was made to Hays Specialist Recruitment Ltd, a larger scale supplier. Such opportunities provide a strategic platform for business expansion within the public sector, as demonstrated by this successful award.
