## Summary

The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) sought strategic HR advisory services from Gartner to support its workforce transformation following COVID-19. The work is intended to help UKHSA become more agile in responding to emerging health threats and make back-office functions more efficient. Support covers strengthening the people function, building workforce skills and shaping a high-performance organisational culture. Services include executive-level advice, cross-organisation alignment and board-ready insight, alongside tailored advice on HR strategy, organisational culture, workforce planning, the HR operating model, talent and reducing HR costs. The supplier also provides leadership meetings, research, diagnostic tools and advice on major initiatives. The buyer is based in London; the service delivery location is associated with its London address.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Gartner U.K. Limited on 15 September 2026. UKHSA used a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The estimated contract value was £211,200, with a stated minimum value of £96,000. The contract period runs from 1 October 2026 to 28 October 2028. The requirement is presented as a single service rather than divided into lots. The award followed a process with a submission deadline of 15 September 2026 at 12:00. The evaluation criteria are not set out in the available procurement details.

This award shows demand at UKHSA for senior-level HR consultancy that can connect workforce strategy with the agency’s operational mission. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to advise executives, align HR priorities across an organisation and produce insights suitable for board decisions. Relevant expertise includes organisational transformation, workforce planning, HR operating models, talent development, culture change and cost reduction. Suppliers should be able to tailor advice to critical priorities and support implementation with research, diagnostics and practical tools, rather than offering general HR advice alone. The scope favours organisations able to provide sustained strategic partnership and access to specialist insight and leadership networks; UKHSA marked the opportunity as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises.
