UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Isle of Wight Council commissioned a workforce diagnostic focused on staff attrition and workforce pressure, including how these contribute to absenteeism and retention challenges. The work is described as a “pressure gauge” diagnostic and falls within business and management consultancy. Delivery is on the Isle of Wight.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to NIKKICP LTD. The Council used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. The contract was signed on 1 October 2026 and runs from 31 October 2026 to 31 January 2027. Its value is £138,000 excluding VAT (£165,600 including VAT). The procurement comprised one lot.

This award shows demand from the Council for consultancy able to diagnose workforce pressures, particularly attrition, absenteeism and staff retention. Suppliers seeking to compete for this specific requirement in future would need to demonstrate credible workforce diagnostic capability and an ability to analyse the causes and effects of these issues for the Council. The contract was awarded directly without competition, so the selected supplier was not chosen through a competitive evaluation. The published requirement identifies no particular accreditation, staffing profile or prior experience threshold.
