UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for an "Independent Whistle Blowing Investigation" has been completed by the Home Office, located at 2 Marsham Street, London. This tender falls under the "services" category, specifically targeting human resources management consultancy services. The procurement was conducted using a direct method, precisely "below threshold - without competition," indicating a more streamlined approach with no competitive bidding. The process reached its award stage on 22nd January 2026, with the period of contract performance starting on 19th December 2025 and concluding on 31st March 2026. The contract, valued at a gross amount of GBP 79,392, was awarded to Conflict Management Plus Limited, based in Royston, which is a small and medium-sized enterprise.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses, especially SMEs, engaged in consultancy services related to human resource management. It demonstrates the government's commitment to involving smaller enterprises in public contracts, which can lead to increased exposure and growth for such companies. Business entities specialising in confidential investigations and consultancy can benefit significantly, gaining credibility and potentially securing future contracts in similar domains. Engaging in contracts with central government authorities like the Home Office can enhance a firm's portfolio, leveraging their expertise in whistleblowing investigations to capture new market opportunities.
