## Summary

The procurement process involves UK Research and Innovation, managed by UK Shared Business Services Limited, which recently awarded a contract for the position of 'Test Lead'. This contract falls under the category of supply services of personnel, specifically temporary staff, and operates within the United Kingdom, with delivery to Swindon, SN2 1FL. The procurement method used was a selective approach via a call-off from the CCS RM6160 framework, with the contract period running from 25th February 2021 to 28th May 2021. The total value of the contract is £37,070.15, and the award notice was published on 11th March 2021, following the end of the tender period on 24th February 2021.
