Summary of the contracting process

The process, initiated on 17th March 2025 and now in the amendment stage as of 22nd May 2026, falls under the services category within the UK. The procurement method utilised is an open procedure, with a framework agreement that does not entail reopening competition. A notable contract amendment involves the novation to MORSON HUMAN RESOURCES LIMITED by 28th May 2026, following the dissolution of the original supplier InterQuest Group. This contract aims at covering permanent, fixed-term, and interim recruitment roles across various professional fields, addressing the broad and specialist recruitment needs of NEST.

With a gross contract value increased to £2,800,000, businesses committed to delivering quality recruitment solutions will find this an attractive prospect. This procurement caters to firms with the capability of providing a diverse and inclusive candidate selection process, enhancing workforce quality and diversity, and aligning with NEST's strategic aims.
