Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process carried out by Plymouth Community Homes Limited, located in Plymouth, UK, was intended to address the temporary staff requirement at the senior level within their organisation. Categorised under recruitment services in the housing sector, the process was conducted using the 'Below threshold - without competition' procurement method, known for its direct approach without the need for competitive tendering. The contract was awarded to Neemar Search Limited on the 16th of December, 2025, with the service delivery period starting on the 22nd of December, 2025, and ending on the 31st of March, 2026. This strategic initiative is a part of the Plymouth Community Homes’ effort to engage experienced personnel familiar with housing association roles to enhance their operational capacity.

This procurement creates an opportunity for businesses specialising in recruitment services, particularly those with expertise in catering to housing associations. SMEs with a robust network and capacity to fulfil niche staffing requirements will find this sector lucrative given the demand for skilled temporary staff at senior levels. Such engagements not only support firms in forging strong relations within the public sector but also serve as case studies to leverage future opportunities. Companies with similar capabilities could strive to strengthen their rapport with sub-central government public authorities, like Plymouth Community Homes Limited, thereby paving paths towards sustainable growth in the recruitment industry.
