UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

High Peak Borough Council appointed temporary staff through an office personnel supply service. The requirement is for temporary staffing support, rather than permanent recruitment or a broader workforce project. The contract is associated with one lot, and delivery is recorded for the United Kingdom. The buying organisation is High Peak Borough Council, based in Buxton, Derbyshire. The service falls within personnel supply and recruitment support, with the work focused on providing temporary office staff to the council. This type of requirement is relevant to staffing agencies and recruitment businesses able to source and supply temporary personnel for a local authority. The procurement concerns the appointment of a supplier to meet the council’s temporary staffing requirement.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Michael Page. High Peak Borough Council used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. The award is active and the contract is also active; it was signed on 17 August 2026. The contract period runs from 17 August 2026 to 15 February 2027. The contract value is £117,000 excluding VAT, or £140,400 including VAT. The process comprised one lot, which is complete. The award covered office personnel supply services. No award evaluation criteria are recorded in the contracting information, and the direct award route means suppliers were not compared through a competitive tender for this appointment.

For staffing and recruitment businesses, this appointment demonstrates demand from High Peak Borough Council for temporary office personnel supplied through a direct, below-threshold route. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to show it can recruit and place suitable temporary office staff promptly and manage the supply as a service for a local authority. The selected supplier, Michael Page, is a large recruitment business, indicating that an established provider was chosen for this contract. Staffing agencies with dependable candidate sourcing, placement and account-management capability are the most directly relevant competitors. The requirement is focused on temporary office personnel, so suppliers whose strengths are limited to permanent recruitment or unrelated specialist staffing would be less closely matched. The awarded contract provides a reference point for the nature and scale of this buyer’s temporary staffing demand.
