UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Council of the Borough of Kirklees procured temporary personnel services to cover a vacancy for an Assistant Asset Information Officer. The requirement is agency-supplied staff for the council’s asset information function, rather than a permanent appointment or a wider asset management service. The work is delivered for the council in Kirklees, with the buying organisation based at The Town Hall in Huddersfield. The procurement falls within personnel supply services, including temporary staff. It is relevant to recruitment agencies and workforce providers able to source and supply suitably qualified interim asset information professionals for local government assignments. Suppliers focused only on permanent recruitment, general office staffing or technical asset consultancy would be less closely aligned with this requirement.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a direct award below the relevant threshold, without competition. The contract was signed on 9 June 2026 and awarded to Park Avenue Recruitment Limited. Its initial term runs from 13 July 2026 to 12 January 2027, with an option to extend for further periods of up to three months, allowing the contract to continue until 12 April 2027. The contract value is £40,950 excluding VAT and £49,142.40 including VAT. There is one completed lot and one active contract. The requirement was evaluated through the direct-award route rather than a competitive tender, and the selected supplier is providing the temporary Assistant Asset Information Officer through its recruitment services.

This award indicates that Kirklees uses agency recruitment to obtain interim professional staff for temporary vacancies in its asset information function. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need access to candidates who can work as Assistant Asset Information Officers, understand public-sector property or asset information environments, and begin an assignment quickly when a vacancy arises. Relevant suppliers are recruitment agencies or workforce providers with experience placing temporary professionals, screening candidates against a defined operational role, and managing the employment or engagement arrangements associated with agency staff. Familiarity with council working practices, information accuracy, asset records and the delivery of dependable interim cover would strengthen a supplier’s position when competing for a similar requirement from this buyer.
