Summary of the contracting process

JNCC Support Co commissioned a skills and capability analysis service. The work covers summarising JNCC’s current skills and capabilities, reviewing that information, designing a questionnaire to support the analysis, gathering data and producing a final summary report. This is human resources management consultancy. The buyer is JNCC Support Co, a central government public authority. Delivery is stated to be in the United Kingdom. The procurement was structured as a single lot, covering the analysis service as a whole.

The procurement is complete and a contract has been awarded to FabricShift Limited. JNCC signed the contract on 24 September 2026. The contract value is £28,975 excluding VAT (£34,770 including VAT). The contract period runs from 28 September 2026 to 19 February 2027, with a maximum extension date of 19 February 2028. The original estimated value was £34,000 excluding VAT (£40,000 including VAT). The buyer used an open, below-threshold competition. The tender deadline was 10 September 2026, following an extension. The award criteria were set out in the statement of requirements. The contract allows follow-on work if required, with an extension subject to JNCC’s need, funding and satisfactory performance.

This award shows demand from JNCC for specialist skills and capability analysis, including workforce information review, questionnaire design, data gathering and concise reporting. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to bring the research and analytical capability to assess an organisation’s existing skills, develop an effective data collection approach and turn findings into a clear, useful summary. Experience managing stakeholder input and handling workforce or organisational capability information would be relevant to delivering this type of assignment. The single-lot scope indicates a requirement for a supplier able to manage the analysis from questionnaire design through to reporting, rather than only providing one isolated element. The contract also identifies possible follow-on work involving a sustainable skills-gap tool or database, manager guidance and documentation for internal maintenance.
