Summary of the contracting process

The Common Services Agency, also known as NHS National Services Scotland (NSS), is seeking to establish an Executive & Senior Manager Search Framework Agreement. This process pertains to the health industry and is based in Edinburgh, Scotland, with the tender period officially ending on 16th January 2018. The procurement is currently in the Award stage, having been initiated via an open procedure. The awarded framework will be for a period of 24 months, with an optional extension for an additional two 12-month periods, focusing on sourcing executive-level candidates for NHS Scotland Health Boards.

This opportunity is ideal for recruitment and search firms that specialise in healthcare, particularly those with proven experience in placing executive-level roles in the NHS. Companies that offer additional services, such as psychometric testing and assessment centre administration, may also find a niche here. With the emphasis on healthcare leadership, businesses capable of demonstrating a strong track record in executive recruitment and those who can offer innovative solutions to attract high-calibre candidates are particularly well-positioned to compete for this framework agreement.
