Notice Title

Notice Description

On some occasions the right resource is not always available at the right time and as such NGN need to look elsewhere to locate certain specialists.

NGN has been engaging with this organisation over the past two years on an ad hoc basis and with the contract just awarded for the services of an additional individual, the spend thus far is circa PS500K which is above the procurement threshold. It should be noted that in addition to the Professional Services framework NGN is in the process of establishing a further "recruitment" framework which will make such occurrences less likely in the future.
