Summary of the contracting process

Highlands and Islands Enterprise has recently completed a procurement process for Temporary Staff Agency Services in Inverness, UK. The process was initiated as a tender, with the award made to Hays Specialist Recruitment. The contract, valued at £115,000, was signed on 6th September 2021 and falls under the services category. This award is part of the contracting authority's strategy to enhance local service capabilities, specifically in economic affairs, with the procurement governed by the Government Procurement Agreement (GPA).

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in staffing solutions and temporary employment services to engage with a regional government agency. Companies that can demonstrate efficiency in providing temporary staff, particularly in the Scottish Highlands, will find themselves well-positioned to compete for similar contracts. The limited number of bids received indicates that there may be less competition, making it a ripe opportunity for established or agile staffing agencies looking to expand their reach in the public sector.
