Summary of the contracting process

PUBLIC SECTOR AUDIT APPOINTMENTS LIMITED has completed a procurement process for "Executive Recruitment" services under the CCS RM6290 framework, with a focus on recruitment services within the UK region UKI32. This contract, identified by the OCID ocds-h6vhtk-05a6cb, was awarded on 28th August 2025 to GATENBYSANDERSON LIMITED, valued at GBP 39,402. The process utilised a limited procurement method, specifically an award procedure without prior publication due to the nature of the framework agreement, and aimed to enhance transparency for services awarded under threshold and falling outside the scope of standard directives.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in recruitment services to expand their footprint in the public sector. Companies that specialise in recruitment, especially those comfortable with direct awards via frameworks, would find this type of procurement beneficial. GATENBYSANDERSON LIMITED, being an SME, demonstrates that smaller enterprises can successfully secure such contracts, highlighting the potential for business growth through niche service offerings within regulated industries like public sector appointments.
