This procurement falls under the industry category of general public services, specifically within the service classification "79620000" (Temporary staff services) according to the CPV scheme. The contract process utilised an open procurement method and was conducted in Edinburgh, UK. It reached the award stage on 13th July 2026, with the contract actively valued at £10,959 GBP. The opportunity was part of a complete framework agreement, with the possibility of a four-week extension available.
