The public procurement process for the Software Tester services was conducted by UK Shared Business Services Limited under the Crown Commercial Services Framework RM6160. The procurement is classified under services, specifically for the supply of personnel including temporary staff, and the award was issued on 2nd August 2021. The total contract value is £56,598.72, with the contract duration spanning from 2nd August 2021 to 31st December 2021.

This tender presents valuable opportunities for businesses interested in providing temporary staffing solutions, particularly in the technical or IT sector. Given the nature of the requirement, companies specialising in IT consultancy, software testing, and personnel services would be well-placed to compete for similar contracts.
