## Notice

Crown Commercial Service (CCS) has put in place a new long-term contracting solution for the provision of workforce solutions replacing the previous framework, RM3749 Public Sector Resourcing. The aim of this framework is to build a market leading commercial model to connect workers with public sector demand, enabling contracting authorities to engage the right resources, with the right skills, at the right price, through a range of delivery models. This will include sourcing temporary workers, engaging pre-identified nominated workers, delivering work through statements of work (SOW), and engaging workers via a Recruit-Train-Deploy (RTD) model.
