Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process titled "Agency Worker" was initiated by the Police and Crime Commissioner for West Midlands, situated in Birmingham, United Kingdom. This procurement falls under the services category, specifically recruitment services, identified by the CPV code 79600000. The contract was awarded through a direct procurement method as it was below the threshold and conducted without competition, marked as complete on the 22nd of April 2026. The contract, valued at £25,800 excluding VAT, spans from December 3rd, 2025, to March 3rd, 2026. The process, which began under the tender initiation type, reflects a collaboration between sub-central government (the buyer) and PERMANENT FUTURES LIMITED (the supplier), a small to medium-sized enterprise based in Leeds.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities for recruitment service providers, particularly those looking to expand their service reach within the public sector in the West Midlands region. As this procurement was executed directly below the competition threshold, businesses with a strong regional presence and credibility in the recruitment field would be well-suited to compete for similar future contracts. Engaging with sub-central government entities like the Police and Crime Commissioner for West Midlands can enhance a company's portfolio and foster long-term engagements in public sector projects. Small to medium-sized enterprises focusing on agency worker recruitment can particularly benefit by aligning their offerings to such services which are periodically in demand from governmental bodies.
