UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

NHS Property Services Limited procured recruitment services from Gravitas Recruitment Group Limited. The requirement is categorised as recruitment services, covering the provision of recruitment support to the NHS property organisation. The procurement is a service contract rather than a purchase of goods or construction works. NHS Property Services Limited is the buying organisation and is responsible for the requirement. The named service provider is Gravitas Recruitment Group Limited, a London-based recruitment business. The contract title identifies the requirement as “Recruitment services - Gravitas”, indicating a focused recruitment-services engagement rather than a wider human resources, facilities management or property-services contract.

The procurement is complete and the award is active. NHS Property Services Limited used a below-threshold limited competition. Gravitas Recruitment Group Limited was awarded the single lot. The award date is 9 September 2026. The contract was signed on 9 September 2026 and runs from 9 September 2026 to 10 August 2028. Its value is £83,333.33 excluding VAT, or £100,000 including VAT. The published outcome therefore identifies both the selected supplier and the agreed contract scale. The award concerns recruitment services only, with no separate suppliers or lots reported. The procurement was evaluated through a limited competition rather than an open tender.

This procurement is useful market evidence for recruitment agencies that serve public-sector organisations, particularly suppliers able to provide recruitment services to NHS Property Services. The award shows that this buyer uses below-threshold limited competitions for focused recruitment requirements and that an SME recruitment provider can win the work. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need a recruitment operation capable of delivering the service at a similar level of scale, responding effectively to a limited competition, and supporting the buyer throughout a multi-year engagement. The relevant commercial positioning is specialist recruitment delivery for an NHS property organisation, rather than general NHS clinical services, property maintenance or construction work.
