Summary of the contracting process

Scape Group Limited, trading as SCAPE, initiated a tender process titled "AP25008 - Temporary Staff Framework," focusing on recruitment services within the construction and maintenance industries. The procurement was located across regions including Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire, South Yorkshire, and Leicestershire. The process, governed by an Open procedure under the Procurement Act 2023, was intended to facilitate the supply of Temporary Agency Workers for Arc Property Services Partnership Ltd. The tender entered an award period that concluded on 17 September 2025, and the entire framework was valued at £4,000,000 excluding VAT, with a maximum term extending to five years. However, the latest update indicates that the tender was cancelled on 15 January 2026 due to a strategic review aimed at transforming the framework agreement into a dedicated contract for a longer term.

This tender presented substantial business growth opportunities, especially for firms capable of supplying qualified Temporary Agency Workers promptly and in accordance with legislative requirements. Ideal candidates included businesses within the recruitment sector, particularly those with experience in property, construction, and project delivery services. The framework's requirements highlighted the need for suppliers with a minimum annual turnover of £500,000, membership in a recognised recruitment organisation, and adherence to public and employer liability insurance standards. Additionally, this opportunity was particularly suitable for those offering competitive pricing aligned with the framework's commercial model for call-offs.
