Summary of the contracting process

The recent procurement process "RM6277" was overseen by the Crown Commercial Service on behalf of the NHS Workforce Alliance and pertains to the sourcing of Non Clinical Staffing across various UK public sector bodies, including central government departments, NHS bodies, and local authorities. This initiative aims to create a collaborative framework contract to address the staffing needs for various non-clinical roles, such as administration, IT professionals, and legal support. The procurement, which follows an open procedure under a framework agreement, was planned to go live in July 2023, with related tender activities culminating in November 2022. The framework agreement featured multiple lots with a significant value estimation of £2.5 billion over four years, indicating a broad scope for suppliers across the UK.

This procurement offers extensive business growth opportunities for employment agencies and recruitment services that specialise in providing non-clinical staffing solutions. The framework is designed to accommodate a maximum of 999 suppliers, ensuring a competitive yet inclusive marketplace for both large organisations and SMEs. Businesses with capabilities in temporary and fixed-term staffing across sectors like IT, administration, legal, and estates management are particularly well-suited to compete. This setting not only broadens the supplier base but also opens avenues for innovation and specialised service offerings, aligning with government objectives to secure efficient and high-quality staffing services.
