## Summary

The procurement process titled "Specialist Recruitment - Children’s Services" was conducted by Torbay Council, aimed at acquiring temporary personnel for interim education roles in the South West of England. The procurement method involved a waiver of financial regulations allowing the use of off-contract suppliers, with a total estimated value of £192,000. The contract period commenced on 7th February 2022 and is scheduled to conclude on 7th August 2022. The procurement has reached the award stage, with the award date noted as 4th February 2022, and the official award notice became public on 11th July 2022.

This procurement opportunity presents significant potential for growth, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in recruitment and staffing services.

The focus on interim management roles indicates a demand for flexible staffing solutions, suggesting that firms offering agile recruitment services could thrive in this contract landscape.
