Summary of the contracting process

The National Archives has successfully awarded a contract for contingent labour services, specifically for a Request Service Advisor role. The procurement process falls within the services industry category and is based in Richmond, United Kingdom, with delivery locations specified in both UKI and UKJ regions. Following the completion of the tender stage, the contract award to Lamb Personnel Limited was activated on 13th October 2025, with the contract running through to 31st March 2026. This procurement fell below the threshold with a total contract value of £24,315.55 gross.

This tender offers significant potential for business growth, particularly for small to medium enterprises (SMEs) involved in supply services of personnel, including temporary staffing solutions. By securing government contracts, businesses such as Lamb Personnel Limited can build credibility and expand their portfolio within the central government sector, given that the buyer is a public authority entity. Enterprises capable of delivering skilled, temporary personnel in specified regions of the UK would find this type of contract appealing as part of their strategic growth in public sector engagement.
