Summary of the contracting process

The University of Edinburgh initiated a tender process for Career Transition Services, classifying it under human resources management consultancy services. Located in Edinburgh, United Kingdom, this procurement was conducted using an open procedure method. Unfortunately, the tender has been cancelled, including both lots: Outplacement and Partner Support Services and Return from Parental Leave Support Services, all of which aimed to assist employees facing redundancy and those returning from parental leave. The last notable date for this procurement was 18 January 2021.

This opportunity, although cancelled, showcases the need for businesses providing consultancy services related to human resources and career transition support. Companies specialising in outplacement services, parental leave support, and other related HR consultancy services would be particularly well-suited to compete in similar future tenders. Engagement with public sector organisations like the University of Edinburgh can open avenues for business growth in providing critical employee support services.
