Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process for the project titled "GSS25082 - Web Content Editor" was managed by UK Shared Business Services Limited, located in Swindon, England. This project, classified under the CPV code 79620000, pertains to the supply services of personnel including temporary staff. The procurement method was selective, executed as a call-off from a framework agreement, specifically the CCS RM6277 Non Clinical Temporary and Fixed Term Staff Framework. The final contract period extends from 30th January 2025 to 31st March 2026, following several extensions. The address specified for service delivery is in the postal code area SN2 1FL. This contract, now in its completion stage, was awarded to Reed Specialist Recruitment with a total value of £47,653.30.

This contract represents significant growth opportunities, especially for businesses specialising in recruitment and staffing services. Enterprises that excel in providing skilled temporary and fixed-term personnel can leverage such frameworks to secure contracts. Given the framework-based approach, smaller businesses (SMEs) can find opportunities due to the selective procurement method which supports their participation. This engagement is ideally suited for agencies that have established credentials in personnel supply services, particularly those with experience working within large public sector frameworks. Such projects not only enhance business portfolios but also establish long-term relationships with prominent clients like UK Shared Business Services Limited and UK Research and Innovation.
